i had my hair done today. Left is before, right is now . My hair is brown 😭 how do I fix it. My hairdresser wants to do a clarifying shampoo and bleach bath but not until Thursday. I was meant to get colour matched to my new extensions today but didn’t want them this colour

The hairdresser has done a fantastic job rescuing it from the cheap blonde on the left if you ask me 🫣

Why the bitchiness?

When the OP clearly wants the colour in the first pic, telling her the other colour is much better or nicer is just a subtle way of putting her down.

Well…, some posters didn’t even bother being subtle, they just went straight for the throat.

Now being honest & trying to be helpful is considered nasty. If posters can't give an honest opinion there is no point in threads seeking advice on clothes or hair etc. The OP obviously wants a colour closer to the first picture & isn't happy with the way it has turned out. There is absolutely nothing wrong with saying the new shade looks lovely & is far nicer than the original colour,or should we lie? 🤔

I like the seconed pic looks really nice, the first pic just looks to fake.

Op asked a specific question
Not for opinions.

What did you and OP think was going to happen on a public forum?

Nitgel · 10/07/2026 13:59

That people would read the op. 😂

Your new hair looks gorgeous.

The right hand side looks much nicer it’s really classy and not brassy

I second this.

OP didn’t ask which you all preferred? Why do some people feel the need to stick their opinion in where it isn’t warranted.

OP you need to get a clarifying shampoo if it is toner, if not then I would advise you to reach out to your hair dresser and ask their advice on how to get it the colour YOU want

Agree the brown colour looks nicer than the blonde

That people with some technical knowledge might answer her actual question?

CoCoJones26 · 10/07/2026 18:10

Agree with all the others the " after" is soo much classier, looks great!

Bumcake · 10/07/2026 19:25

Even for mumsnet, this thread is spite filled and embarrassing.

BurntBroccoli · 10/07/2026 19:32

I think it looks really good! Much better condition and a lovely colour.

Sunshineandgrapefruit · 10/07/2026 19:48
