How long should i wait to re-dye my hair?

Question

I have really dark brown hair, almost black, and i tried to dye it super light brown, almost dirty blonde

I didn't take into account that my hair is really thick, and i should get two bottles of dye. So now that it's dry, the roots are kind of...strawberry blonde, and the ends are still dark brown.

it looks so stupid, how long should i wait to dye it again?

I'm going to use the same color and brand, but this time, im gonna use two bottles, obviously.

xD

Answer 1

It's recommened that you wait 2 weeks before dying your hair again. Otherwise it will get damaged and really dry out.

Answer 2

I'm no expert, but I think you should go right now or as soon as you can and get some more hair dye. Because it will look really strange. And it will be better if you quickly do it all in one shot, or else it might now work =/

Answer 3

lightening from a box rarely ever works unless you have really light hair to begin with, i'd say to go to a professional . save yourself a lot of time and damage . you'll probably end up spending just as much on the die if you do it yourself because you'll have to redo it so many times .

Answer 4

hmm...  now, was your hair dyed before?? The dark brown color?  Sometimes the roots just turn a lighter color, because if the rest of your hair is damaged, it will pick up the color more, while the roots that are healthy will lighten, but might not hold the color.  You can try to dye it again though.  Maybe just wait a few days.    But if that still doesnt work well, I would go to a proffesional..

Answer 5

My hair grows fast so I color every 2-3 weeks to keep my roots covered.  Usually I just focus on the roots but I alsways run some of the color all thru all my hair to keep the color fresh.  That much processing isn't especially good for your hair so I try to do everything else I can to keep my hair healthy.  

Answer 6

you can do it Now! usually 3 months or so after you dye it! but since your hair is dark like mine than as soon as the roots start to show!
