So I just recently decided to do something new with my hair and go for a bright red auburn color. Since my hair is very dark I had to lighten it before dyeing it. My hair is a really pretty color now but it just doesn't fit me at all and I don't feel like myself so I want to go back to having jet black hair. My hair is barely damaged from the treatment and I have been doing a deep conditioning treatment to help keep my hair healthy. So how long should I wait to dye my hair again?
I just dyed my hair super auburn but it ddnt turn out too well,it's a bit too light ,so how long should I wait to re-dye it to auburn so that it can be darker...HELP!!!

Black hair color is deposit only, so there is little to no lift on your cuticle. A few days is fine.

You can do it now! When you go darker just like Kelly said you're only depositing and not lifting! Won't damage your hair
