horrible dye job

I have had brown hair with tons of blonde highlights- think Jennifer Anniston forever. I have been considering going dark and a friend talked me into letting her dye it last night and what was supposed to be a chocolate brown turned out a horrible black. I made an appointment at a salon this morning thinking it wouldn't be that big of a deal to fix....Wrong!

The best she could do was add a few caramel highlights and tone it. It is better, but I am still not happy at all. The stylist told me the color would fade some and the soonest I should come back is in a month and she could add more highlights.

Is the stylist correct? I know there are so many different opinions. I know I am going to spend a small fortune getting my hair where I want it to be, but I am willing to do that.  Should I make an appointment sooner than a month? I don't really want to do an all over color now that I have already paid for these highlights.

Re: horrible dye job

  • I have been in your shoes before. I have always been a honey blonde think blake lively color and had a color mishap where my hair was dyed black. I went to the salon to have them turn it back and my hair turned bozo orange. They said there was nothing they could do but dye it darker and I had to be a chocolate brunette for a few months. It was ok but I didn't feel like myself for a few months.I'm afraid I don't have an answer for you but I feel your pain!
