    I miss my old color
    I used to be a blonde and everyone always complimented my natural highlights and people said my hair made me sexy. However, I decided I wanted to dye my hair a brown. It came out a beautiful auburn brown and at first it was perfect and I loved it. Now, three months later, the color has barely faded and I miss my blonde. I really, really want my blonde hair back and my hair hasn't faded color much at all. Can someone PLEASE tell me how I can get rid of this color as fast and as healthy as possible? Thank you so much.

    If you want to do it yourself, you'll need color remover (ColorFix, Color Oops, Color Zap, Color Charm Color Corrector, Igora Phantom) to remove the artificial color. If the hair is light enough after that, you should be able to dye over it with a blonde color. If some of the artificial color persists, you might need to do a light bleaching before the final color.

    Haircoloring can be tricky. For that reason, a lot of people recommend experienced stylists. Get one who has a lot of experience with corrective color. Some stylists aren't very knowledgeable about hair coloring.
