Hair coloring advice please?

Okay, I have natural drk brown hair, and i dyed it darkest brown (basically black), about 8months ago. And now my roots are showing(I can notice it other ppl really can't). I wear a lot of sunscreen so my face is a little pale and i've been told my hair is to dark and it makes me look even more pale(the rest of my body is a medium bisque). Should i try and color it lighter?

Well how do you think it makes you look? Do you like how it looks on you? Trust me I've dyed my hair alot of times and I've had friends tell me it looks awful or it doesn't go with me but at the end if you like it don't worry what people say. But if you don't want your roots to show then go to the stores and buy what you call a root touch up........or just another color......as long as you like it.......Well good luck hope my advice helps

You can't color it lighter. You'll have to strip out the color using a color corrector. Color correction is very expensive, and it is NOT something you should attempt at home.

No. unless you want to dunk your head in toilet bowl bleach a couple hundred times, then you will have bleach blond. Wait it out. You made the decision to die your hair. You gatta live with it! Sorry!!!

Or you could shave your head a glossy bald...but i don't think you want to do that....

I would recommend doing a highlight first to get use to a little lightness, then in a couple of weeks do a med ash blonde all over. i am not a professional, so don't think i am an expert but I do my own color and have for too many yrs to acknowledge.

hmm i think if u want it 2 go lighter, u should buy blonde hairdye and make sure it doesnt have ANY RED in it because this could cause ur hair to get orange tones which looks realy fake. so when u put it its easy to see blonde develop so wait till it gets the shade of brown u want it 2 b and dont let it get blondejust leave the dye in until u have the color u want. if u have any further questions email me

Stop right there. You will not be able to color it lighter. If you tried you will end up with lighter at the root area and warm, brassy ends. If you choose to lighten up I would head to a salon and try this. A French shampoo through the mid-ends to break the color. Then add a few naturally placed highlights just to break up the darker color. Color glaze between the foils to cool the tone and add shine. Depending on what type of over-the-counter-hair color you chose, how many times you applied it and the condition of your hair prior to application- that will affect how easy or difficult it is for the stylist to do this for you. This is not for you to try at home. Best of luck.
