Dee Asked by denisemc about 1 year ago, 4 answers.

What can I buy at the local store to remove the orange/brassy color from trying to use a home blonde hightlighing kit?

I had this same problem like a month ago. I tried to go from a dark brown to a blonde with an at home kit. it turned my hair orange at the roots and looked horrible! I went to a salon to get it fixed and the stylist told me that you cannot go from a dark color to a lighter color unless you highlight it with bleach. she had to do a color correction for me and she put some darker highlights mixed in with blonde ones to make it blend. so if were you I would go somewhere to get it fixed unless you want to bleach your hair out and make it completely blonde.

Hi! Go to a beauty store and ask for Shimmer Lights... or AKA the Purple Shampoo.. It takes out brassyness.. I have used it MANY times.. and it takes the orange tint out of my hair!!

If you lightened your natural hair, you can buy an ash colored, blue-based dye at the store. It must not say golden. Off the top of my head, Starlet by L'Oreal is a good one. If you had dyed your hair dark and then lightened it, you probably have dye trapped in your hair; so, in that case, it might be better to use the hair color remover kit by L'Oreal first, and then use the toner/color, if it's still needed. Also, invest in the purple shampoo for old people, usually its on the bottom shelf of drugstores. *It is normal to get the orange because dark hair needs lightened in two steps: first, you get the dark out (bleach/ligten), then, you correct the color to get the red/orange base out (tone/color). If a professional can learn this, so can you!
