Thread: My Hair Pulls Red- Help Please

Started 2 months, 2 weeks ago by freespiritgirlsweet
Help- I got  my hair dyed or well, ruined with a semi perm color that turned my hair reddish brown, then a redo turned it black.  I got a soap cap and a toner and it was still a reddish brown, and I got a clarifying treatment and it is now a reddish brown.  I'd like to get to a medium, light brown chocolately color without the red.  I don't know if I should try highlights or what- help!...

Hi, First, is this home color or at a salon? What is your natural color? If it was a salon, they really should have corrected it pronto. Myself, I speak w/ the salon manager/owner if that isn't happening. If this it at home color, it might be time to go to a salon and get it done professionally. Most brands do also offer phone help, so you can tell the which product exactly you used, ...

Thanks for the reply... This was salon dye.  They tried to correct it but just made it worse.  That's when they turned it almost black!  I'm going to a few salons for consultations to see what they say...   thanks Amy

Oh, how frustrating. Yes, find some salons that really specialize in color and have colorists that are very informed and educated about current products and especially color correction. That just should not have happened. Good luck and let us know how things turn out.

Hey there- I went for a few consultations today.  I found a great stylist, one who I had met before and I really like him.  He is going to do a partial/few foils to lighten up my hair and do a new cut, maybe a toner too.  I'm really excited!  Before I went to see him though, I went to another salon for a consult and they said they wouldn't do foils because my hair is damaged so I am ...

I am glad you are almost over this. Hair disasters can be so upsetting. If you have damaged hair, there are some SUPER products for that. Look at Sephora for Carol's Daughter (or go to the .com site). I have bleached, straightened hair... you pretty much can't do anything worse to your hair than what I do. ;) Check out the hair milk, hair butter, hair honey and hair balm. They were ...

I got my hair fixed and it came out great!  I wish I didn't have to spend so much money in the process but I found a great stylist so it was worth it! Thanks for all your help! Amy

when you look in the mirror does it look auburn red or red red? If it is auburn red then your hair really pulls gold. Most people think gold undertones are red but its orange. Second google the color chart and you will see that violet is across orange which neutralizes to a brown. if it red, then green (ash) is what neutralizes red. There is a shampoo that is violet base that can help with out ...
