Removing black hair dye without bleaching?

I dyed my hair black a while back and I want to dye it a different color but I know that black hair dye is hard to get out. I don't want to bleach my hair because I've bleached my hair twice before and my hair felt like straw afterwards. Is there any other way to get rid of the black hair dye so I can dye my hair a different color?

Removing black hair dye without bleaching?

i would use a deep deep cleaning shampoo.

try

-bumble and bumble tonic.

-brocato peppermint scrub purifying shampoo %26lt;-- this is wonderful!

-neutrogena shampoo. (just the regular weekly shampoo)

use everytime you shampoo. for about two weeks.

the color will fade a bit but not completely.

make sure your also using conditiner (as much as your trying to take out the color you dont want to dry your hair)

----

thats what i did to take some too dark color out of my hair.

also you could try a color removal kit.

ive never tried them so im not sure how well they work.

but i do know the color your hair is afterwards is not your natural color so you'll have to dye again. but you can pretty much do any color, itll take all of the black out.

---

and last you could try a hot oil treatment . its supposed to take dye out, but if not it will always condition hair

i added links in the bottom for you.

good luck =]

Removing black hair dye without bleaching?

nope..

not really..

hey but you could always ask a hair stylist.

Removing black hair dye without bleaching?

i don't think so

Removing black hair dye without bleaching?

If you have bleached your hair a couple of times before then put black dye over that? I suggest you see a professional. Seriously. Your hair is a potential disaster waiting to happen.

The heartache from using bleach one too many times and ending up with mushy, destroyed hair isn't worth trying to do it on your own, again. Trust me. I know.

Removing black hair dye without bleaching?

I have black, damaged hair too. When I go to the salon every 4-6 weeks, I have my hair stylist highlight my hair with bleach then dye the bleached parts, but it will take months before my whole head is back to a lighter color.

You can do that, but pretty much anything else you do will damage your hair even more because if you bleach your head again all at once, your hair could start breaking and falling out. If you bleach only a little of it, only a few more hairs fall out and it's not as damaging.

Removing black hair dye without bleaching?

YOu will have to go to a professional and get it stripped i would recommend getting conditioning treatments before and for sure after

Removing black hair dye without bleaching?

really there isn't anything you can do. Color doesnt lift old color out, so hair that is dyed black, dark brown things like that cant be colored light brown. The best option you have is to put highlights in. Don't do it your self. The stylist will use bleach to lift out the old color... most likely the result will be an ugly orange color, to make this better the stylist will tone or color balance, this is a gentle process that will put a color on to that bleached hair.

Removing black hair dye without bleaching?

Sorry, but this is truly a case of once you go black you'll never go back...LOL. At least not without bleach or letting it grow out. You have to strip out black to make the hair any lighter color (all colors are lighter than black).

This is hard on the hair, you are right. Worse yet, black barely fades like most other artificial colors.

You are in a pickle no doubt. And don't be fooled by products that say "remover" or stripper because what it all boies down to is...bleach.

Try to live with it or, have it fixed and cut it short and start over !Good luck !

Why won't my hair dye stay?

I used to bleach my hair blonde, but my natural color is brown. But one summer I decided to dye my hair auburn... My hair dyed, but the dye only lasted for about a week. I thought it may just have been because of the bleaching. But since then I have dyed my hair a lot of different colors. I have had my hair professional dyed. I have switch my shampoos/conditioners several times. I have tried wearing the dye for longer than it said. I have not washed my hair for three days after dying it. But no matter what I do my hair won't hold dye for longer than a week. And it just always goes back to this nasty sort of orangey-copper color...I am so fed up...Any ideas on the problem or a solution?

Why won't my hair dye stay?

The cuticle layer of your hair is wide open due to previous colorings. The color goes in easily but it also leaks out just as easily. Bleaching the hair is the major reason for this. Secondly, you went over the bleached hair without using a filler first. Thirdly, red dyes have a larger molecular structure...causing them to have less ability to adhere and stay within the hair. The longer your hair is the greater it increases abnormal porocity. Think of how many times the ends of each strand has had chemicals run over them. It becomes "old" hair more quickly with each chemical service. I know this was a bit "technical" but I hope it helped.

Why won't my hair dye stay?

Its nothing that you are really doing wrong. Its the pigment in you hair and the pigment in the dye. You can ask any beautician red ever holds to the the pigment it always fades. Its just the way the dye is. But to help go a couple shades darker than what you want and only use semi-perment color it does less damage to you hair and you can update you color more often without hurting your hair. but use a deep conditioner and color protection shampoo! Trust ME!... make sure though that you get it at the salon and NOT the store,( its not the good stuff)

Why won't my hair dye stay?

ok listen up sweetie al u do is u go and get it dyed by a salon let them do it and tell them ur problem and then after they do it dont wash ur hair fo 5 days after they do that i know its nasty but the dye stays in longer.=]

Allergic reaction to hair dye?

ok i have the tendency to dye my hair.. obviously...i have never had a problem with dying my hair till about a year ago i dyed it black and the next day tried to put bright red highlights that were supposed to work with black hair (without bleaching) needless to say it didn't work and i started semi breaking out. well the day after that i redyed my hair back to black ( i know very very bad for my hair) and i later fully broke out because or some type of reaction about two months ago i redyed my hair again to cover my brown and i broke out once again....so my question is do u think i caused my self to become allgergic to hair dye or might it just be because i used cheap hair dye the last two times i've dyed my hair

Allergic reaction to hair dye?

I think it may be the kind of dye you are using. You could have some problems with the acid in the dye. However, this would not pop up just because you colored your hair twice or three times in a row. I have done that before to my self and friends.

However dye can be very hard on your skin.

Try going to a salon, have them try and see what happens with some high end chemicals that are less harsh on the process, your hair and your head.

In order for the chemicals to work that are in the store, they use different reactor chemicals than the ones used in a salon.

Sucks, sorry to hear about the problem.

Allergic reaction to hair dye?

Can you please let me know if you have found a soloution to your problem. Have you tried a semi-permanant dye ? Report It

Allergic reaction to hair dye?

each time you dye your hair you sorta burn your skin.So yes i think you over did it before and now your skin is allergic too it.

Allergic reaction to hair dye?

Thats because hair dye from teh box has peroxide in it, which is unhealthy to not only you, but the planet. im sure its very common to get allergic reactions to hair color that isnt professional. next time go to a salon, and im sure you will be safe. good luck =]

Hair Dye Question - Need Help!?

Two days ago I went to a salon to have my hair dyed dark brown, because my darker natural color was starting to grow out. The salon screwed up my hair and dyed my hair black. I lost $50 on this deal. Then, the next day, I decided to go to a different salon and have them repair the damage. The woman told me because my hair was black, we would need to clean and extract the previous dye, then start from scratch and dye my hair brown. She recommended a very light brown because she said the black and the very light brown would give me the dark brown hair I wanted, close to my natural color. Well, my hair turned out very, very light brown, almost a dirty blond. This cost me $100. I am very upset and my scalp is red and irrated from all the chemical treatment - my hair feels like it is going to fall out - its is very dry and damaged.

Is there anything I can do to make my hair the darker brown color that I want, without doing more damage to my hair and scalp??

Hair Dye Question - Need Help!?

go back to the salon and have them fix it the right way.

you should have gone back to the first salon first. I would not try anything yourself- go to the salon and tell them you hate it and you want it fix the right way. talk to the manager.

good luck- been there done it.

Hair Dye Question - Need Help!?

Let your natural hair grow out and then dye it the way you want.

Hair Dye Question - Need Help!?

Just leave it alone for a while--you don't want it to fall out! That is horrible that neither salon tried to correct it to your satisfaction and still charged you for it. You should call a different salon and see what kind of products they recomend to get your hair back to normal before you try to color it again. Good luck...talk about a nightmare!

Hair Dye Question - Need Help!?

OK 1. no more dyeing.... let it repair

2. u can use a highlighter for Ur hair ( the stuff that wash out in the shower is pretty much one of the only opinions u got. but trust me no more dyeing for a while.

Hair Dye Question - Need Help!?

go to a professional hairdresser.............it may be more expensive but it will get you what you want

Hair Dye Question - Need Help!?

I don't think that you need to put anymore chemicals on your hair at this time. It sounds as if your hair was very porous the first time it was colored. That is why it grabbed the color and made it too dark. There are colored mousses that you can use to acheive a darker look than you have now without coloring again.

You also need to use a deep treat conditioner to help your hair regain its moisture balance.

If you do decide to color again make sure that they do not use a permanent color on your hair. It is harsher than a semi-permanent. But for now I would leave your hair alone.

Hair Dye Question - Need Help!?

Hopefully, you have already been to the salon manager and demanded your money back.

As for your hair color, you might want to try a rinse. You will have to do it every day, but it will get your hair darker without damaging your scalp. They can look a little bit flat/single tone, but it would help get rid of a really bad color. Similarly, a brown shampoo with tinter in it will help over time.

However, if you have really damaged your scalp badly, you may want to do the coloring as little as possible, at least until your head starts feeling better. In the meantime, you will definately want to invest in some deep conditioning treatments to get your hair back into shape; you can get them at Sally Beauty or a similar store for $1 apiece OR simply put conditioner in your hair, wrap with a damp towel/saran wrap, and sit in steam for 1/2hr before rinsing.

Absolutely not. I react strongly to the toxicity of the chemicals in synthetic hair dyes with a number of 'symptoms', including migraines, joint pain, fatigue, 'anxiety,' and reactive airways dysfunction syndrome, where the chemicals irritate and inflame my throat and sinus tissues.

In other words, breathing is more important to me than fitting a stereotype of 'attractiveness.'

Hair dye help, dark hair to blonde?

I have died my hair several times, and i would like to be blonde. My natural hair colour is light brown. And the colour i have now won't lift, it is dark brown/black with bright blonde roots. I have the blonde roots because i already had roots of my natural hair colour and I tried bleaching it with Loreal Paris Blonde Supreme box dye. The roots are all that went blonde, the rest of my hair is still dark, lighter than before but still very dark. I cannot afford getting my hair done professionally. If i try a better box bleach like Flash Lightning ( a higher lift), to bleach it, and then dye it with blonde dye on top of that would that work or are there any suggestions. i am freaking out over what to do!

Hair dye help, dark hair to blonde?

You need to strip your hair to get it right

Hair dye help, dark hair to blonde?

you would either have to Bleach it or Strip it either way its really damaging. Hair color will never lift dark hair color.

Hair dye help, dark hair to blonde?

If I were you, I'd save up some money and get it professionally done before your hair falls out or breaks off.

Correcting red hair dye.?

Hi,

I dyed my hair "dark reddish brown" with Garnier Nutrisse boxed dye over my dark brown semi-permenant colored hair. My real hair is dark brown but I wanted to "intensefy" it. Anyway, my roots came out red and the rest of my hair stayed brown with red tones. Today, I went out and purchased Ion Brilliance dye in "medium ash brown" and "darkest brown". I bought the medium ash brown thinking I would correct the red but I think I made a mistake in mixing it with a 20 developer instead of 10 to just deposit. Now my roots are even redder and the rest of my hair is a dark dark brown with TONS of red tones, which I hate. I really want to try and atleast fix my roots, take out the red without having to go to my hair stylist. Do you guys think it'd be a good idea to try and dye a dark ASH brown over it to correct the red? I was thinking of just doing the same darkest brown dye but I think it would just stick with the red tones since most brown dyes do that.

Help? :(

Correcting red hair dye.?

try bleaching your hair and then dying it after.

Correcting red hair dye.?

The best thing to do is stop dying it.. lol. Anyways, it will definitely fade as you wash it more, because red doesn't have "staying" power.. But if you do wish to dye, I would NOT use "ash" anything... Use a semi-permanent dye.. in a medium brown perhaps.

Correcting red hair dye.?

get a *deposit only* hair color and just do your roots.

Correcting red hair dye.?

green is the opposite of red on the color cycle so it cancels out the green....you need a hair color with no peroxide so you don't risk lifting your hair at all in a an ash shade..you should try to do the roots only..this would bring them to a darker color that would look more natural...if you go to a salon they are going to do the same thing...except that will probally dye your entire head dark brown....their is a product called loving care....its no peroxide no ammonia..it washes out you could try this without risking more damage...good luck i know the feeling i have had all kinds of color disasters even the one you have as well...i actually have the same color on my hair right now as you do

Correcting red hair dye.?

hon,be careful for using too much dye in your hair can cause drying %26amp; breakage. %26amp; it might turn an awful color..i suggest using somethng semi-permanent, that has no peroxide,no bleach! for sure stay away from them.

If you have a Sally's beauty supply in your area,these ladies can be very helpful.I've been using a "lights %26amp; brights" that's tinted w/brown,it's safe %26amp; stays on pretty good.it's put out by Ardele..they may also have other products,even if they do not have this one.or go to Sally's beauty supply on line..

also, try using the temporary rinses,for now,just to be safe ,to give your hair a break..You might want to put a deep heat conditioner on now too!.Did you know carrot juice is GOOD for your hair? check out the ingrediant in Paul Mitchell's detangler//juice a carrot or 2 or buy a can %26amp; mix it with your shampoo,leave it on 3 min..rinse ,then you can wash it out..Your hair %26amp; scalp will thank you for it!

Be careful / takes a long time to let hair grow back out, if it's really damaged.
