    Hair color trauma!
    I have seen a few of your posts and you really seem to know what you are talking about. I have naturally very light blonde hair, I dyed my hair light brown and over time the ends are more of a medium brown and my roots never match up. I'm sick of the maintenance and can't really afford the salon right now. What are my options to go back to the natural color, I am OK if it takes a few months. Should I do the peroxide thing you mentioned in another post and then dye medium/dark blond afterward? Should I do highlights/lowlights and dye over that a medium blond until it's all highlighted out? Any advice from anyone would be helpful, I just know that she seems well informed. Thanks!

    I'm not sure who your post was intended for.

    I'd suggest highlighting your hair to break up the light brown. Then let it grow out. The other option is to use color remover (Color Fix, Color Oops, etc) to take the color out and then try to dye it close to your natural color.
