I have done that. For me I was willing to cut it off so I didn't damage it anymore. But you could always redye your nature color and after that just take really good care of your hair

You would have to strip the color first using a color corrector like Color Oops. Then go in and dye your hair whatever color. Follow up with a neutralizer and deep condition to restore it. That way those colors wouldn't interfere. If you put brown over blue it will be green

Use a semi permanent color in a dark warm brown. A dark warm coppery tone will neutralize the blue.

Color oops will not take out an unnatural dye color since they are stains. I would say cut it off is your best bet or you can try using a soap cap with a anti dandruff shampoo.

I actually did this and I washed the ends of my hair with shampoo and baking soda (it turns into a paste and its super gross feeling) it basically lightens that bluish green tint so you can dye your hair black/brown without the blue/green tint showing through. there is basically no way to do this without damaging your hair to do that youd have to take the plunge and cut it off which I'm sure you don't want to do so I would suggest investing in a deep conditioner.

Just color your hair with a demi warm tone that matches the darkness of your hair. I'd say probably a 3m or 3w just from looking at your pictures.

If your hair is a green tinge get a bright red semi to use as a pre pigment and then colour over that with a colour close to your natural one, this will cancel out any greeness :)

Unfortunately, it may have stained. I had to go through that and it stained so you can either bleach the crap out of it, or go another color (I went purple to cancel out the green). I don't think you'll be able to go blonde without damage.

If I go a dark black will it cancel out the green?

I'd suggest going to a salon with color corrective specialists or at the very least not doing it yourself. Black should cover it as long as it's a neutral or warm toned black
