Hi(: Okay, so my natural hair color that I had it in before I dyed it was a dirty blonde, and I had highlights with bleach! Well as a teenager, I have my NOT so smart momentS! I went to my friends house and we came up with this "Amazing" idea! To dye the underneath of our hair an emarald green! Well it doesn't look good, and plus I'm a dancer and I have photo's NEXT... weekend! I need this dye out FAST! I have heard a couple stories, like Pell? Shampoo. Dish degerent, shampoo and baking soda? YEAH! I need help! I am not bleaching it, or striping it, or going to a salon! It's impossible! Hahaha. SO PLEASE HELP ME! Anything, that can help meeeeeeee! I have also heard to go swimming in a pool can make it come out faster, BUT my mom is afraid that it will just make the color WORST? Any suggestions!

Green huh? Ok then, well I just looked up a natural solution for stripping hair color. It seems to have gotten good reviews and it won't kill your hair. Vitamin C... Go to your local pharmacy, pick up a bottle of the cheapest vitamin C you can find, crush up a bunch of tablets, add it to your favorite shampoo, apply to damp but not soaked hair, cover with plastic, wait 30 minutes, wash it out. TA-da! (apparently) I have never had to do this myself and am only giving you info I found on-line... Give it a shot, it can't hurt your hair.
Let me know if it works as I have two pre-teen girls who I am sure are going to do something silly like this too. LOL Good luck!

Ps. Do NOT go to the pool! Your Mom is right, it will only make the problem worse.

Thank you! And one last question. Will this solution strip just the green dye cause I did bleach some of my hair

This solution should strip ALL artificial color from your hair, so the bits that you bleached should come out the same shade they were when you bleached them...

Okay great! I will give it a try(:

I don't know if this works I'm curious to find out if you choose to try it.
And to clarify (because I'm unsure of what time frame is meant by "when")
No offense Chardel, it just confused me.
Since bleach strips the natural color, what you can hope to end up with is what you had "after" you bleached your hair.
