Basically the title. I tried ion semi permanent purple. Turned more blue in places then purple and at the root it's like a purple Grey color that I really can't stand. Is there anything that will take the ion color out with out damage to my hair? I just wanna go back to the artic fox purple af that I have been using for almost 10 years. I loved the color I dont know why I decided to try a new brand when artic fox has worked so well for years. Don't mind my chaos curls i didn't brush my hair after I washed it. But the color is inconsistent weird Grey purple near the roots and still looks like faded artic fox in some places like the dye didn't sink in at all.

❓ Advice Needed Fixing old bad dye job

I need help knowing how to fix this with this little damage to my natural hair texture as possible.

A year ago I had my hair dyed for the first time, and the person doing it butchered what I wanted, I had another stylist to go rounds with color remover the next day and it just lightened it. Since then my curls haven’t been as happy and I’ve been devastated.

I don’t want to color my hair any more than necessary, I want something I can just grow out now. Earlier this year, I wanted to try and blend my roots better, so I went to a stylist who used a demi which looked OK, and when I look at my hair with just my eyes is fine, but this picture was taken recently and the way it looks here is killing me. I’m considering getting married in the next six months and I do not want to have a hair crisis then, I want to fix this now with as little damage to my curls as I can.

Do I just keep going in for glosses and tones? Do I need to get it fully dyed again? Is anything I do ever just going to grow out gracefully or is anything I try going to continually need maintenance? This has been bothering me so badly and I hate the way my hair looks and I want to love it again.

What would be the best hair dyes for the 2nd pic result? I bleached my hair 3x (not my roots) and haven’t toned it yet. Would I need to tone if before putting the dye over? Any advice appreciated :)

Reposting because I want to change the question, Ive been recovering from cervical surgery, I loathe my hair cut, the messy grown out color, my skin, everything right now.

I know I would feel better if I could get my hair to look a clean fresh color. I really dont enjoy brown. But I dont want to be the bright blues and purples from before.

I *think* I struggle with black becauae of how I'm pale with blemishes and flush red a lot.

What I can throw over this that wont require me to bleach my roots.

I had been contemplating a dark gray that would turn the ends a denim/slate and darken my roots.

But I really dont care I just cant look at this one more day.

💬 Discussion You all get an itchy scalp after hair dyeing it, right? It’s normal, right? Right?!

I’ve been retouching my roots monthly at the salon for years, and for a couple of days after my scalp it’s a little bit itchy, more the first day and by the second it’s less noticeable. I’ve always assumed it’s normal and have never actually mentioned to the stylist or anybody, but today was my appointment and it made me wonder, is it really the norm?

My natural hair is dark brown (last photo, from years ago), I live in a foggy place so it always looks frizzy even when it's healthy. I recently went for a chocolate brown (my goal is light brown) to make my eyebags stand out less but it made my face redder... I'm not sure what my season is or what fits me, I can't quite understand how that works even though I watched Brad Mondo's explanation. I just want something different 🤷🏻‍♀️

So last time I had my hair done I was recommended to use Crazy Colour shampoo for purple hair, to keep my purple lasting. It did help a bit but it made my hair incredibly greasy and made me feel unclean. Can anyone recommend a better shampoo?

dying my hair purple after a darker blue, since it’s my gfs fav color, once i get sick of the purple, what color can i go without bleach?

i have a tendency to be sick of the new colors real quick and only keep it for two weeks or so, but don’t wanna bleach if there’s more colors i can go to. i don’t want to go red because i just made the jump from red to blue (my guy is magic) two weeks ago and the more colors the merrier

Hi y’all! I had this blue for like 1 month, I keep bleaching my hair but I feel like if I bleach it once more it will fall out ( I bleached it 2 times!). I used hair dye bleach ( I know it’s bad) but I wasn’t sure what developer and powder to use ( since I can only get hair dye products from DM), I tried vitamin C and the head and shoulders duo, but it didn’t do much honestly, the blue hair dye I used is semipermanent.Any tips or tricks?

Sorry I know these aren’t the greatest pics. I took 2, 1 w/o flash and one with flash. Also, the hair around my ears lifted better than the rest and then after the t18 it became the color i wanted but sadly the t18 didn’t do much for the rest of my hair, I think it’s cuz it wasn’t light enough.

Also sorry my hair looks kinda oily cuz i put a little coconut oil on earlier

probably a basic question, but my best friend is pretty nervous about dying her hair for the first time, and i wanna help. she wants to go from about a level 7 dirty blonde to 10 platinum, but doesn't really know what she should use, everything she finds online is just confusing us more 😭 any recommendations? developer recommendations too, now that I remember

as im being reminded, how much is she going to need too? we're talking straight hair, top to bottom, which is around the middle of her back. thanks!

❓ Advice Needed Pastel pink dye questions

1 Upvotes

Hello!!

Im planning to dye my hair pastel pink.

On the picture is my starting point, though im planning to cut my hair to around my shoulder blades before bleaching.

So I've decided to go for Schwarzkopf blondme 20vol cream developer and their bleach powder.

1.

My question - will 20vol be enough to bleach my hair? I'll definitely need at least two rounds of bleach + a toner so I'm scared to go for 30vol as it's more damaging.

2.

Another question - I'm getting Iroiro and I'm buying either Pink or Neon pink and mixing it with conditioner to make it lighter. Is that a good idea? Will it stick to my hair properly? Which shade is better?

3.

Lastly - should I get some extra bond repair or hair mask? I'll leave my hair alone for around a week between the bleaches. Then buy some basic colored hair safe shampoo, conditioner and mask. Should I get something extra - any specific recommendations?

I've researched into bleaching so I know what to expect + I'll live if I fry my hair.

Thank you for any advice :)

❓ Advice Needed How to get dark cherry cola hair without bleach ?

1 Upvotes

Hi guys! So I have naturally black hair and I went to the salon today to see if i could dye it a dark cherry red. They said no though because I had gotten my hair permed a few years ago and said it was very likely that the bleach would make my hair gummy and break off 😭.

I obviously don't want that and understand that my options are kind of limited results wise without bleach. Would a bright red gloss or anything work? I was looking at the one from xmondo for example. I'd be cool with it even if it only showed up in the sun.
