Answer 3

I dont think so. If your hair is black....like really new black then you'll have to wait for it to fade because if you bleach it it will overprocess your hair and cause major damage...not to mention if you do it wrong it will turn an awful color.

Wait until it fades, go in the sun alot. Then get a dye that is just a basic brown....not some wierd name like "chocolate creme" just a brown and then keep redying every 3 weeks.

Use a good conditioner. KPAK is AWESOME, you use it only once a week because its very powerfull.

Answer 4

Did you use a permanent or semi permanent colour? The bleach will probably result in a lot of damage, uneven lightening and a really brassy look. If you used a permanent the result of bleaching will be really extra damaging if you are doing it at home especially.

Go to a hairdresser and be clear that you want it brown 'today' not a long term process. They will be able to help you. They may try to convince you just to have a few foils gradually to get it lighter, or something like that. Really with going lighter its not the same as darker. You can end up with really bad results if you dont know what you are doing.

If u cant afford a HD, let it fade for a few months. Yep MONTHS. And then dye it a nice brown.

Answer 5

If you go to the salon they can do a color remover and remover the black hair color then dye brown the same day. The cost should not be too high and it will not be as damaging to your hair.
