I've been colouring my hair for many many years and am really fed up with it. Been going grey since I was 21 and so now in my late 40's I've finally decided to try and ditch the dye.
I thought that semi-permanents were just that, semi, and so have been using those for a while thinking that if I stopped using them they'd just fade away. But from reading threads on here I now realise that they're pretty much permanent so that was a waste of time!
Back in December I used a semi with a purple tone (thinking it would wash out eventually). I've not coloured it since and so now my hair - which is just below shoulder level - has an inch or so of my natural dark brown/grey, then two inches or so of dark brown with a purple tinge and the rest is dark brown/black. So basically a mess!
I've tried head and shoulders and it's faded the purple a bit but not enough. I've been reading up on toners and was wondering if putting one on would help to even out the colour a little bit. I'm just a bit confused about the colour I should put on, if I used a blonde/yellowy one it should neutralise the purple but what would happen to the grey hairs?
Any advice?? What products should I be looking at getting? Thank you!
