Can I fix my bad dye job at home?

I was going to lighten my hair today, then dye it ash blond next week, my mate got kinda excited and asked if she could do it. I can’t say no to people so I said she could. Now I’m used to dyeing my hair, I’ve done it a fair few times (semis) but turns out she’d never even dyed her own. Anyway it looked fine till I washed the stuff out, its patchy and not even blond, turns out she didn’t even finish the bottle. I have a rosy complection so I should avoid gold and copper, well its copper, its nice but makes my face look even redder!!! As I said, its really uneven, my roots up to about a centimetre haven’t been touched and there are small yellow spots every now and again. It looks really bad and I really hate it, I think it makes me look ugly. Can I fix it at home (I still have the other dye I was going to use but surely dying over it will just make it patchy in a different colour) or do I need to get it done professionally?

Answer #1

This happened to my friend at my house, except it happened because she had so much hair that it didn’t cover everything. We took the chance to colour it with the other colour and it actually worked, it didn’t show up patchy at all because we did it right away. Professionally is always better and you’d probley get better results as well, its completely up to you though.

Answer #2

actualy, a similair thing happened to my friend. dont try fixint it at home, chances are you’ll just ruin it even more. I know paying all that extra cash to fix it is a drag, but its better than looking bad. trust me, in the end, its worth the money. and a little advice, next time ask your friends if they’v ever done something, before they experiment on u. goodluck
