How long should i wait befor i color my hair again??

Question

i just colored my hair today.

and i dont really like it.

i liked it sooo much better before.

i had light brown hair with light blonde highlights in it before, when today i colored it a medium blonde.

but when i rinsed it out and dried it, it came out DARKER than the color i had befor :S

it is now a medium-light brown. and it sucks.

p.s i have only colored my hair 2 times in my life.

1. was just highlights in april 08

2. today

so.. how long should i wait until i get it recolored to a blonde that i love :)

Answer 1

You should wait 2-3 weeks before re-applying colour to your hair. It alows your scalp to heal a bit before you put in harsh chemicals again.

But, you could always wait a bit longer. Esp. if you have damaged hair

Answer 2

dye it again when you see your roots coming in ( your natural hair color will be at your roots)
