Semi permanent dye gone wrong

FreakOutFarOut · 06/06/2024 20:23

I have lightish, warm-tones brown hair with some natural highlights but more and more greys coming through.

Thought in my infinite wisdom to pick up a blonde casting creme gloss (semi permanent) and whack it on, thinking it would only potentially tint my greys. Obviously I now know that was not a good idea!

It lightened my whole hair and three weeks later I have a ring of orange hair around my roots (also applied unevenly) which definitely isn't fading! And darker roots are growing through which I thought I would avoid by going with the semi permanent.

Anything I can do at home considering it might not fade as hoped? Thinking maybe of doing a light (ashy) brown semi permanent on top in a week's time...but is that just a recipe for further disaster?

For info, some greys were covered I reckon, some weren't.
