Help me fix my orange hair!

SO I’ve been dying my hair brown for past 6 mos, bleached it 2day looking for bleach blonde. this is my natural hair color. My hair is bright orange with bleach blonde roots! My god I look so stupid can even look in the mirror. dont have money for salon or time to wait. my sons bday party is on tuesday so there will be pics. If I dont get a good answer im just gonna buy some regular blonde dye 2moro and try again. hope it works if someone cant help me!

Answer #1

this is what a cosmetician told me to do years ago and it worked pretty well, but it can still be abit pricey. I did this the day after my hair turned orange, but make sure you condition REALLY good to repair damage.

get a box of red dye and another box of blonde, like the post above says, avoid gold or warm colors. (can you get loreal feria blonde?, its #201 or something works great)

use just the color from the red box, do not put it in the developer bottle.

put the red dye on your hair, be very careful, it WILL stain your skin, let it sit for 20 min,

wipe it off with paper towel or a junk towel, do not wash it out, just wipe it off.

mix the blonde dye the way you normally would and apply it for no longer than 30 mins. applying thicker to areas that need it (the orange and red parts)

hopefully that does the trick, worked for me. oh, use all the conditioner from the two boxes over the next two days and that will help with the damage to your hair, try to let the conditioner soak in for like 20 mins after you do the dye, dont tease your hair for like a month, and try not to use any styling products, especially ones with alcohol.

there are also styling products out there with purple and blues in them to help with the brassy color, but they can be very expensive too.

Answer #2

You should have used a hair stripper first but since the damage is done there is really nothing you can do without really harming your hair. You can go to the salon and they can help get the brass color out. Next time strip your hair or use an anti brass packet from sallys, they help a lot.

Answer #3

your never gonna get bleach blonde hair the first try if you have brown hair…go to a salon!!!
