Answer 1

if you live somewhere sunny

then try putting lemon or lime juice in your hair

and then go out in the sun for a long time

it sounds gross but it makes your hair really lighter

and you dont have to worry about dying with chemicals

so just grab a lemon and sun dye your hair

hope this helps :)

Answer 2

yea you can dye it again it doesn't matter that much dyes aren't as bad as they were years ago... but just leave the dye in for 15-20 minutes longer or something same thing has happened to me

Answer 3

Color can not lift color.  You will get no where, my suggestion is to either go to a salon, or do highlights yourself.  After your highlights, apply the light brown color...but if you're using an ash toned haircolor you'll want to switch to a golden/honey toned haircolor to prevent any gray or green tones.  If you want your whole head light brown, buy the highlighting kit at the store, mix all ings. together as stated, then add about 1/2 cup warm water....pour this over your head, leave on for about 10-15 mins till you see your hair turn to a yellowish color.  After this, apply light brown color, and again stick with gold/honey tones.
