    Removing black hair dye
    My hair is naturally a light ginger or strawberry blonde I have been dyeing it black for I can't believe its been this long about 6 years. I love it but am worried about what I'm doing to it.

    How can I get the black out and dye it a nice red colour without having to go through an odd looking stage. I can't go out with roots showing I just can't I have to go to work and can't look odd.

    I don't know if I should attempt bleaching myself or go to the hairdressers any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Use ColorFix, Color Zap, Color Oops, Igora Phantom, or Paul Mitchell BackTrack to remove the artificial haircolor pigments, then bleach it or color it.
