I used a semi permanent hair color, pink, on my already lightened blonde hair. The pink turned out looking really bad, and I dont want to wait a month to get rid of the color (plus i need to look for a job, and that color wouldnt look very professional) I have no money, so going to a professional, even just going out and buying a 10 dollar stripping solution, is unfortuatly, out of the question. Are there any at home remidies to get rid of it? Ive already tried washing my hair with clarifying shampoo 6 times, and it really hasent done much. Any help will be much appreciated!

Color-enhancing shampoos such as John Frieda's Sheer Blonde will bring out the blonde highlights in your hair. Lemon juice or chamomile will also bring out the blonde.
If the hair color had henna in it, try soaking it in a 70% alcohol solution, then following up with a coat of mineral oil, wrap your head in saran wrap and sit under a dryer or aim your blow dryer 30-45 minutes, then rinse well and shampoo as usual.
Make sure to use a replenishing shampoo and condition on your hair once you get the color out. Between the chemicals in the dye and all the shampooing you're doing to get the dye out, your hair will be in need of some TLC. [ ncblondie's advice column | Ask ncblondie A Question ]

The box is orange, you can buy it from your local store. I hope this helped. [ ALWAYSx0xAM0R0US's advice column | Ask ALWAYSx0xAM0R0US A Question ]
