Okk,
So I'm a natural brown colour. My sister had come over, just a month ago or so, and put some bleach in my hair for some streaks. They worked out OK, But just recently they had started going a really orange colour.
So I asked my sister to come around again, this time to bleach my whole hair to a blonde.
But when she had finished it was yellow, and was really burning my scalp as she applied.
So my hair was yellow for a bit :|
I looked up on the internet, how to get back to brown from bleach blonde hair, It come up with
" since stripping all the reds out of your hair, this is what makes brown, so now its time to get them back in "
It said to put a dark red in my hair, and then a dark brown, I did that.
But now its really dark red,with a tad of brown in .
And looks purple in the light :/

Please help me! how can I get this discusting red out of my hair, I just want to go brown again, or a dark brown.

Here's a picture, of my natural colour a while ago ;

If there is a sallys beauty supply in your area go there now... they have these packets there called ion stripper... if you don't have a salleys go to your local buyt store and see what they say they might know a better way... Most box hair dyes don't always get you the real color your looking for, and if it was your first time you dyed your hair it sometimes don't come out as planned cause your hair ain't used to the dye.

Bleach is bad for your hair.

To lighten it

You should try Sun In
SUN-IN Hair Lightener Lemon - 4.7 Oz

Or make a mixture of chamomile, henna, lemons and other natural lightening stuff.

I don't know what you can do for it now other than using good conditioners and moisturizers to keep it from being too brittle.
You can use a hot oil treatment or even a little baby oil
