How to get rid of bleached blonde and go brown?

[KirstieLou]

My hair was white and I've tried going brown a few times but nothing sticks it ends up going a dirty greeny colour. Tried box dyed & trips to hairdressers. Surely I can go brown?? What's best to use?xx

Pre-pig with semi before applying anything brown!

As you're not a hair pro we can only advise you find yourself a good hairdresser.

What you are asking for is a total colour correction which really needs doing at a salon to get a good result - pre pig hair first then the colour you want applied after,(the reason your hair looks green after is because you have no warm pigment left in your hair) My advice is find a salon that does colour correction, have a consultation AND a skin test, then book you colour appointment. Its not cheap but if you want a nice chocolate colour to last its a salon you need not a cheap box colour.

Do they teach level 3 hairdressing courses at your college?

If so, why not book in for a colour correction there? You'd be an ideal client for the students, they will be fully supervised and you can listen and ask questions at the same time.
