    URGENT hair crisis!
    Basically ive been dying my hair for like 2 years now my normal hair colour is a ash brown i hate it so that why i dye it so much.
    i now can't stand the cour of my hair which is a dark brown and want a lighter redish brown as it the in colour now and look really gorjuss on most celebs such as cherly cole.
    the only way i could dye my hair that colour is to get my whole hair stripped! my mums said not to get it done as it reuin your hair but i really can't stand this colour no longer im so sick of it.

    my plan is to get my hair stripped by a professional and buy a home dying kit from somewhere like boots or superdrug asap.
    i really want a new hair colour for christmas so i can then buy extensions in that colour.

    everyones advice would be much appreciated as im so confused at what to do if you have any better idears please let me kno asap! :) thanks xxx

    I think you have a plan.

    Stripping hair can be done in two different ways. One is using bleaches. The other is done using the opposite -- reducing agents. Igora Phantom is available in the UK and is the latter type. A reducing agent will dissolve the artificial pigment in your hair so you can wash it out. Igora phantom will not destroy your hair (unless it is already destroyed).

    By the way, frequently changing the color of your hair will eventually trash it. Hair doesn't heal or get better over time. If you damage it too far, it will break. It's best to limit the number and severity of chemical treatments on the hair.

    Note: I have no financial or other interest in the products I recommend.

    Good luck,
