I'm have a major problem and need some advice. I have dyed my hair for years and never encountered this problem. I had bleached hair, then 6-8 months ago I dyed it dark brown/auburn. I decided to go back blonde/light brown and used Clairol Born Blonde(mistake number one) although it said "non brassy no red" my hair is orange! I called Clairol only to be told to get a stronger bleach(from the beauty supply or dye ash blonde). I figured the ash blonde wasn't going to do much so I would get a stronger bleach and then could use a toner. I just bleached it using a 30 vol developer and its still orange. HELP! I'm at a loss here other than dying it dark again(which isn't really my color so I'd rather not). I'd like to get it back to a dark blonde/light brown.....any suggestions? Thanks, Lisa |

For future reference I thought I'd share my fix. Bought Loreal medium ash blonde and Feria caramel kiss. Put the ash on the really orange areas let sit 5 min then put the caramel all over. Result a med/dark blonde with lots of highlights and dimension. It worked for me anyway |

| WHEN CLAIROL SAID TO GET A STRONG BLEACH THEY REALLY MEAN IT, YOU'LL NEED TO APPLY THE BLEACH WITH 20VOL AND LET IT SIT UNTIL IT REACHES THE INSIDE A BANANA YELLOW, WHICH ON THE AVERAGE IS ABOUT 30 MINUTES TO 1 HOUR. BUT WHEN YOU DO THIS CHECK AFTER 15 MINUTES AND THEN EVERY 5 MINUTES THERE AFTER, WIPE OFF A PIECE WITH A WET TOWEL AND THEN MUSH BACK INTO THE BLEACH IT IT'S NOT UP. - MAGS |
