| hair emergency I just had my hair colored and it is way too dark. It was light brown with a lot of blond highlights and I wanted to go dark but it is such a big difference I'm freaking out a little. I know it will lighten a lot because of how much blond was in it but in the meantime I'm, well, freaking out. It's really dark. I'm thinking about going ahead and washing it. Any color experts out there? What do y'all think?

Donating Senior Yorkie Talker | I know... I've done the same thing. I thought I'd go "a little" darker blonde...Dark brown was my results ..with red hughes in it. If you did'nt know me ..no big deal. I've been highlighted blonde forever. It takes a bit to get used to. It has lightened up a bit,from washing. If I can give anyone hair coloring advice...leave it to the professionals!!!! It's truly a science...or in my case a science experiment LOL

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | I'm not a professional, but I know that even tough dawn may work, t will be to harsh on your hair. When I had my hair red, I did a regular at home oil treatment and it striped my hair color a lot.This may work for you without damaging your hair.Good luck and let us know.

Oh trust me- I do leave it to the professionals. I NEVER touch my own hair with chemicals. My hairstylist did it using a photo I brought in. I don't know if it's much darker than the photo but it's just really a shock. I think I'll wash it using my daughter's shampoo since I use a color protecting shampoo and give it a week. If it still seems too dark I can get him to add some more highlights. I am just in shock right now.

| Sorry Nikki, I thought that was funny I would go to the lady who did it and tell her to fix it unless you did it yourself.

| No my hairdresser did it. I guess he did what I asked him to do but I'm really not pulling it off. I know he could add more highlights but it's going to lighten a lot from all of the blond under this dye anyway. I hate to add highlights I don't need. I try to be pretty careful with my hair and it would take some strong solution to lighten this dark brown.

| I don't think something bad happens if you wash it today. Have you call your hairdresser yet? I have an appointment tomorrow to get my hair done. I'm going to go darker, right now I have highlights and light brown background. I'm going all dark brown. My hair needs a break from coloring.

| It should be fine, a few years back I decided I was going to go back to my natural color strawberry blond, cause I got it too blond with all the highlights, I went from brown, black, red to orange in 2 days before she got it right, I washed my hair so much in those 2 days, but it didn't hurt or help it, you might want to try dawn to strip some of the color. Call Lori, she would know( daisymae )she is a professional hair person.
