Dye Job from hell!


Question Posted Thursday September 16 2004, 8:32 pm

Ok i just went to a hair dresser like an hour ago and got my hair highlighted. I wanted think dark blonde chunks and she ends up giving me these really super bright light blonde streaks. I hate it and i did it even tho my mom said not to...i didnt think the lady would mess it up. Well i came home and washed it like 3 times and its not lightening up. Someone plz help me, i dont know what to do, ill rate a 5. I cant dye it again, my moms not gonna let me.

Well washing it won't help. The dye they use is specifically made NOT to fade or to at least resist fading.

Notso is highly correct though - you should not have to pay for something you don't want. If you tell them you arent happy with it, they can't make you pay for it or they will re do it the way you want it for free.

There is little else you can do to fix the situation because dieing it yourself will probably end up looking a hell of a lot worse.

Go back to the hair dresser, you shouldn't have to pay for something you don't like. When I got lighter streaks in my hair, the hair dresser put toner in once the bleach was washed out so it was a more natural shade. I'm not hair dressingly inclined, so talk to the hair dresser to be sure.

Plastic surgery might help enhance the fakeness of it.

hey. i would go back and tel the person that she did them wrong. you will have to wait a few days before it will sort of darken and bllend with ur hair. cuz usually they darken by itself. but yeah i would suggest that u go back and tell her that she did them wrong. Take Care. Hope I helped! x3 SweetStar.

Oh my lord.... Um, I hate to break it to you, but if your hair is changed to a lighter color, there's no washing it out. Your hair has been permanently altered. You can, however, dye your hair. Since your hair will already be a bit iffy because of the bleached streaks, you might want to wait a couple days before doing it. What you want to do is find a permanent hair dye near the same color as your natural hair, and get your mom to help you so that you don't miss any areas. You can buy a box of hairdye at any grocery store, near the hair fixatives and shampoo and scrunchies and stuff. Since you have the bleached streaks, you'll probably end up with much lighter highlights than the rest of your hair, so even though it won't be the look you originally wanted, you'll still get the two-tone effect.

This happened to me about a year ago, and It really just takes a little while to get used to. At first you might not like it, but once you become adjusted to the hair color, you might change your opinion. I'm sure your beautiful either way.

Hope i helped<3

heyyyyy..... well after a week it wont look sooo dramatic and it will fade and be alot darker than it was. So if you reall hate it then keep your hair up and then wear it down when it fades. maybe youll like it once you get used to it. You could always wear it like that @ school down and see what your friends say. Then youll know how it looks. but its gonna take about 1-2 weeks to fade out.! good luck!!! tell me how it goes!

try dishwasher soap.... it has a lower ph.... wash it a couple times with that... also try not to use color treated shampoos.. that tends to keep the color in longer!!
hope we helped
