i have naturally dark brown hair but for years had it highlighted blonde. before that i used to dye it myself red as i have green eyes and pale skin.
i tried to go red again at the hair salon but it ended up purple,(it was ok but not what i wanted and expensive!) so i decided this time id do it myself.
the kit said it was a 'deep redish brown' - thought that would be fine but its gone very very dark, almost burgundy black in actual fact and it just looks too severe!
what can i do? i know dark colours fade quickly anyway so im not fretting too much but i just wanted a warm chestnut colour and instead its gone too harsh! my mate says my hair may have been porous due to the other dye jobs and thats why it may have taken darker, ive washed it today and ill keep on washing it to make it fade quicker, but any ideas?
im gonna have to wear loadsa makeup cos i look so pale! morticia eat your heart out...help!
