*Removing Permanent Color From Hair?

Feb 27, 2013

Amber D.

So my natural hair color is a darkish, medium brown. I had it dyed blonde two summers ago but I hated it so in the fall I tried dying it back to my natural hair color. Over time, it faded and I just left it the way it was until I tried dying it back to my natural color again about two weeks ago.
Now to the point, I was wondering if there was any way that I could just remove the color and it would reveal my natural color without dying it, but using some sort of color remover? Would it turn my hair orange or an unpleasant hair color? Somebody please help me I've been researching but I haven't found any help.
THANKS!

When you dyed your hair blonde, you bleached your hair I assume? My suggestion is to either go to a salon to get it dyed, or else you'll have to wait for it to grow out.

Yes, it was bleached. I don't really want to go in to a salon, I guess ill grow it out thanks.

Using a color remover would end up turning your hair either orange or yellow ish. When bleach was used, it removed the pigmentation from your hair, which is why it faded so quickly: the color dyes don't have any way to hang on to your hair. You'll have to either grow it out or go to a salon where they'll fill you're hair with demi permanent and then color your hair again to a shade around your natural with permanent color.
