What colour did you use? Yes you can use a colour stripper straight away but in my experience the level of success really depends on the colour you've used

Great I used loreal Paris casting creme gloss in the shade iced chocolate and it's gone so dark and it's red, I've already got some hair dye remover it's colour b4 or something like that this is my first whole head dye thing so I hope I'm as close as possible to my natrual coulor thank you ! Smile

Sorry I got distracted by pesky children. Did you use the colour b4? When I used it my hair went an alarming shade of orange and I put a light ash brown over it which took me back to my usual mid brown. Lots of people recommend washing with head and shoulders to strip the colour out when a dye turns out too dark, but that won't help with the redness. To deal with that you could use a toner or a purple shampoo like Touch of Silver.

Can you tell I've experienced all kinds of hair dying disastersGrin

The only good thing about castings is that it a semi and washes out pretty quickly .... I would just shampoo twice with a strong shampoo for a few times a week until it fades.. Lots washes out on the first wash after I've used it I find.

Yes I did and it really worked it was great I'm back to my natrual coulor.I had an ombré that I hated before I dyed my hair brown and the brown stained the bleach a bit so my hair is all the same colour !
I'm soo happy thanks for your help !
I may need it again haha I'm planning to go just one shade darker in a week or so I really love dark hair in fall/winter and nice blonde in summer !
Thanks again Smile

I find the nice and easy semi permanent the best and go a shade lighter than the box says as light brown always ends up as medium and medium brown is really dark brown

I'll give that a try one day I dyed my hair blone today with an olia dye and it's really dark. In about three to four weeks I'm going to dye my hair again I really fancy going a sort of ginger shade but going more towards like a reddish ginger but I know colour b4 works and I can dye immediately after so if I hate it then I'll fix it but for now I'm gonna sit with conditioner in my hair when im stuck in the house with nothing to do Smile
