stop, go to a colorist, get it done right the first time. its cheaper than redoing it


make sure you see someone that is trained in color, majirel, schwartzkof,goldwell.


stay away from, redken, matrix, aveda.


there tend to be in cheaper salons and not greatly trained. of course there are exceptions to these rules. go to Saks, look at some girls hair that works there, and ask where do you go?I have dark brown hair with blonde highlights, how do i get ride of them without going to a salon?
find a color as close as possible to your natural color the highlights will still come through as the color fades but its better than living with hair you hate- been there good luck
Good luck .Sounds good but be sure to select 1 shades lighter than your natural color as the box colors always come out darker than what is on the box. After 6 weeks . . or so many washes the color will start to fade and you will need to repeat the process until your highlights have grown out or been cut off.
Buy a light brown box color. When you put highlights in, the bleach lifts the color to lighten it. You have to put color back on the blond if you want to get rid of it.


You might also want to go to a colorist to see of they can tone the blond. The can put a toner on that will make it less brassy.
The boxed hair color will probably make things worse. It will not only darken the highlights, but also your base color so it would be best to either grow them out or go to a salon and see what they could do if you really don't like them.
You'll be okay following that plan. I'm a senior and have gray around my temples and sides, so the box dyes tend to give me a lighter shade there, but it looks good, it looks like natural variations. One recommendation - the permanent dyes really bother my scalp, and the wash-in's last quite awhile, don't irritate the scalp. I much prefer a Clairol product called Natural Instincts. When and if you get it watch for a coupon good on future purchases; it will be on the instructions sheet. Good luck!
should work fine and if you decide to go blonde again try picking a ash blonde coloring helps to pull the red out of naturally dark hair kinda learned that the hard way lol
