How to Correct a Home Hair Coloring Job
-
1
Dye your hair with non-permanent colors until you decide whether or not you like the color.
-
2
Use colored shampoos that will lighten the color slightly if it is too dark for you.
-
-
3
Cutting your hair is yet another option but pretty drastic unless you’re looking for a new style.

4
Accelerate hair color fading by washing hair in hot water. Hot water has been known to open hair cuticles which speed up color loss.
-
5
Schedule a hair appointment with a professional hair stylist. Inform them of your problem so they are better equipped to fix it when you arrive for your appointment.

This is not only not helpful, it is a total waste of my time. If I had used a temporary color, I wouldn't have been looking for an article about how to correct my color. Shampoos can NOT lighten my hair. If I wanted to cut my hair, I would not have been looking for an article to correct my color. Etc, Etc....useless!!
