When looking for a change, hair coloring might seem the perfect way to freshen up our look. A new hair color can change the whole appearance and boost our confidence. But what if it ends into a hair disaster, or simply we just don't like the new color?
There are hair color removers, but they are recommended only for professional use. Try to find a color correction specialist, who knows exactly how the procedure should go. If you want to skip that, your single option would be to cover up your new color with a semi permanent or permanent color, but before you do it, make sure you won't damage your hair even more. According to the hair dye type you've used, there are several ways to try improve your new look.
If your new color is a light or medium shade, you can simply use a semipermanent hair color after a couple of days. Pay attention to the undertones. If you were tying to get a blonde color, than your undertone is yellow and if you want to go back dark, remember that light browns have orange undertones, while dark browns have red underlaying shades. It is important to make sure you'll get the best results for your second attempt so choose your color well. The final mix of the color you have an the color you want to correct it with will result either red shades either green shades. Don't panic, these won't be visible, it just means that you'll have cooler or warmer hair color.
Unwanted Dark Shaded Hair
Dark shades are the hardest to correct, because of the high pigmentation the hair dye contains. In this case, you might consider trying a new haircut, or start using new hair accessories that will help you get along with your new color.
If you used a semi permanent hair dye, than your job will be easier: just wash your hair more often to get off the pigments. Also, they say that washing your hair with clothes detergent may also get the hair dye off. In this case, you have to make sure you wash it out well, because any little amount left in your hair will damage it quite bad and be sure that the detergent you choose does not contain bleach. The only bad part is that you have to wash it out in the first 24 hours after your hair coloring disaster.
If the hair dye is permanents, you can try a clarifying shampoo or build-up removers that swimmers use. These products will remove all the coating your hair has, including the pigments. But keep in mind, that dark shades are the hardest to get rid of and don't try top get your lighter color back because you risk not only getting a worse color, but loosing your hair.
Removing Semi Permanent Hair Color
These hair dyes can be removed quite easily. Stay for long times in a pool, wash your hair more often using hot water, or apply a lemon juice on your hair and stay in the sun until it dries. The semi permanent hair dyes last only for a couple of weeks, but you can fasten this up with the options mentioned above.
Removing your fresh new hair color might be tricky and dangerous for your hair. You can easily make it worse, or damage your hair in the most extreme way. Getting professional help would be your best option, but if you opt for the home remedies, don't forget to condition after any of the procedures you would choose. It is a big challenge for your hair, so if possible, avoid these drastic solutions. Opt for new haircuts, or anything else that could draw your attention away from your hair and make you get used to your new look. After all, it is better having a hair color mistake that having no hair, wright?
