because its been years since i did the at home hair thing but with a new baby whos bf on demand (and her demands seem to be 22 out of 24 hrs...) I cant seem to get out to the hairdresser and I swear I may cut it al off if something doesnt happen to it soon.
so CAN i buy a hoe dye kit and safely use it on my 'whole head of blonde' highlights? or will it turn them all green????????

It's fine. I've done it. My name comes from the first time I home highlighted after having ds2 and had forgotten that it goes through an orange stage before it goes blonde. Came on here for some stress relief and chose my name as result. Turned out fine in the end, just needed time to develop.
The only time I've turned my hair green was when I used lightening powder on top of the purple and pillar box red colours that I'd been using on top of henna. It's actually quite hard to do as you need to have had quite a bit of chemical colour still in your hair to react with the new peroxide.
Just be careful to make sure you pull your hair through the cap evenly or you'll look patchy (been there too).
