I like to dye my hair but everytime i dye my hair dark it fades like completely out within 2 weeks (i use the $10 boxed stuff) but when i dye my hair like a light shade of sandy brown/blonde it holds and really doesn't fade at all every (well i have had the hair dye in for about 5 weeks and i have noticed no fading)
My question is why is this? my hair is naturally extremely dark brown and my hair was a med brown and i keep trying to dye it back to my natural color but then it fades to a light brown red which isn't even close to my natural color or the color it was before and its ugly and looks bad when my roots grow in.
And it looks alright light but my hair looks really good dark and i want to be able to keep it that way and i want tips so i don't always have to get it professionally colored

All the other days, just condition it. Avoid pools because chlorine eats away at hair dye. [ more_than_a_feeling's advice column | Ask more_than_a_feeling A Question ]
