The hair dye I know of (a major brand) requires mixing two ingredients, applying it, and waiting twenty minutes before washing it off and using a conditioner on it.
Anyone know a faster, permanent hair dye? This would be for a blonde, to conceal gray.
NOT really but I guess keep searching.
I had really light blonde hair and I was sick of the upkeep so i tried to dye it a darker blonde(champaign). It turned my hair gray! So then i tried to dye it again a medium blonde, it just turned it grayer. So then i tried again with another blonde and it looks better, but still not good. So now I don't know what to do. I hate my hair and i can't afford to go to a salon.
omg stop dying it now, its going to ruin your hair, see someone who knows about hair right away, you may have to keep it very short until all that grows off
go to a salon and get it stripped, then dye it another color.
omfg! tht sux! umm the best advice i can give u is get sum hair dye removal stuff and if tht dont work, get like a lite to medium brown hair dye and dye it tht color and if THAT dont work just start washing ur hair with dishsoap and hopefully tht shld get the dye out soon enuff, not as fast bt it shld work...good luck!
ooo! that sucks. 3 times a week? ! wow now leave it 4 a month and do it again
idk but your gonna go bald if you keep dying your hair lol.
if you dye it again it will probably fall out.
but then you wouldn't have to worry about the color...
if you can't go to a salon, try calling the help line on the back of one of the boxes, they can probably tell you the best color to try and fix it. but you probably should wait at least two weeks.
i know that you don't like how it is right now, but you really damage your hair each time you dye it, so i would suggest leaving it the way it is for about a week. After that I would try using a bleaching cream, and then dying it the darker blonde and it should turn out to be like a medium-dark blonde. hope this helps!
go to sally beauty supply and buy conditioning packets!! Use a pack a day for 2 weeks..........keep it on your hair for atleast an hour!
use 100% olive oil to strip off the hair dye. It may take 2-3 treatments before you can re-dye your hair.
I can't believe some of these answers you are getting. Look, go to Sally Beauty and pick up a box of ColorFix. Use it exactly as it says on the box, it will loosen the color and it will wash out. Do NOT color your hair again for a few months after you do this. This should bring you back to the original light blonde color. If you want it a little darker, you can use a deposit only (like colorgloss) and add a little color back in. Your hair looks gray because the color you used had an ash base. You need something with a gold or neutral base.
The one mistake you've made was coloring your hair the darker blonde in the beginning. Because naturally the haircolor should only be lighten, or darken 1-2 shades at home. Now having really light blonde hair, in the beginning you should have went light/medium ash blonde. Considering you most likely have a cool skintone. But if you have a warmer skin tone you should have went light golden blonde. For warmer results. You tried to color your hair dark champaign blonde. That made your hair gray because you tried to color your hair 4-6 shades darker. Remember coloring your hair at home is always darker than what appeared on the box. Dying your hair medium blonde; of course its going to turn out grayer because you're hair is over-processed. What was the new haircolor you recently colored. You probably attempted to go lighter. You mentioned something you about cannot afford to go to a salon. I recommend going to a salon. It cost around $60-80 or more judging by the location of the salon. Mastercuts in the mall is about the cheapest place I know. To get your haircolor corrected. If I was you I would attempt going to a salon because your hair is greatly damaged you would only suffer more if you color again at home. You most likely spend the amount of money at home to correct your hair. When you could have used it to correct your hair professionally. I wish the best of luck to you. Have a great day.
wtf are u dying ur hair for three times a week. well i would just use more of the hair dye that worked
THis is tough, i did this before and now its why i have a hair stylist i go to and LOVE. I had a bad experience with the color removal stuff, it stripped my color out of my hair (dark plumb, dont ask why) but it didnt go back to the normal blond color, it made it a nasty orange with weird streaks in it. This is what i bought from a Sally Beauty Supply, and followed the directions on the box. I think that is different stuff the reply before me mentioned, so you might want to give her suggestion a try. GOOD LUCK! or contact a local hair salon for advice. (if all else fails remember it will always grow back)
I go to Beauty school, I am about to graduate so I might be able to help you.....first of all, you should never color your hair three times in a week, your dealing with chemicals that literally eat your hair. You need a really deep conditioning treatment, preferrably a heated one. I would not put any more color on your hair for awhile until your hair gets back to it's original state. I know you said that you cannot afford to go to a salon, but I would highly suggest going to a professional and letting them see what they could do.
i am creating this guy with black hair and gray eyes but i cant pick a shade of gray i like for gray eyes .other than steel gray storm cloud gray and silver which i have already used before. i want someting different. because this peson is very important to the story.he is a very scarcastic person whit a dark sense of humor bitter and some times insensitive but he is very much in love. there if thats not enough detail i dont know what is.
I like the image of smokey eyes...or eyes the colour of cold ashes, leftover from a hot burning fire. If you use the symbolism of ashes...you could play with the notion of fire.
Pewter, ash, ashen, cinereal, clouded, dappled, dingy, dove, drab, dusky, dusty, grey, heather, iron, lead, leaden, livid, mousy, neutral, oyster, pearly, peppery, powder, sere, shaded, silvered, silvery, slate, smoky, somber, stone
let me tell u a netural thing.....burn some cole...then collect the ruin of them not the black one.only the gray ..gray ruin come ..on it..then use that color ..this is relal naturall..god bles u.,..best fo luck
Gray as slate fresh off the mountainside...
Eyes gray as a dark dove's wing...
Gray as the sky before the snowfall...
Eyes gray as dancing dolphins...

silver grey with a glint of white...steel grey I like, my husbands eyes are steel blue. And steel emphasizes his sarcastic persona, yes, I write too.
Smoky grey eyes that turn darker than a storm cloud when he is angry.
Granite
Charcoal
Try those.
The trick is not to leave it at the adjective alone. You've got to make your characters eyes come alive.
ie: "His granite colored eyes shined stone cold with sarcastic bitterness."
I just pulled that out of my butt, so it's crap... but you get the point.
does that mean it's gonna start going gray? I'm only 22. but like around my hair line mostly, strands of hair are turning red...
There is some indication that the uncommon pheomelanin/eumelanin ratios found in redheads may be correlated with some corresponding variations in the abundance of other hormones and neuropeptides, including epinephrine (adrenaline), dopamine, and oxytocin.
what is your regular color?

its probably too much exposure to the sun, color treated hair or not. my sisters hair is turning red in those places too, and shes only 16, she doesn't have colored hair.
i don't think so but why are you but worrying if it doesn't u would have been worrying for nothing so enjoy life while u can:)
prematurly gray hair funs in my family and i want to be able to have good color
I use Preference on myself and the color really saturates and LASTS for weeks on end. I use Feria on my mom (her hair is starting to grey). Look for a type of Feria in a shiny silver box that is made to give "prismatic highlights" (this will help balance the gery and give a more natural look, not a look that just makes you look like you have grey hair and tried to fix it yourself)...also, make sure that the color you chose says "100% grey coverage" - it's usually in a yellow square on the front of the box. I use Feria #60 for Mom and it's great!
Love Loreal's natural match I've used it and my mom uses it to cover her gray and she really likes it cuz it doesn't look fake like some dyes.
I say "GO TO THE SALON"...boxs dye never comes out the color you want it to....
First of all, NEVER use a hair dye that you buy in a grocery store or Walmart anything like that. Go to a beauty supply store... Wella is one of the most recommended brands...and they are safer for your hair (no ammonia) and they last longer as they are the same products that professionals use.... most good beauty supply stores employ people that have had experience working with hair...so you can ask alot of questions and get good answers. I use to use box dyes and then i found Sally's (W. Washington), I started to buy my dyes there and my hair is healthier than when i used box dyes and my color stays in up to 4X longer...that is saving a lot of money believe me!
I have pale skin, gray-blue eyes, dark brown hair with blond hi-lights? I'm just starting to tap into makeup and I need some help!
The most important factor in choosing makeup colors is determining your skin tone. Here's how to determine your skin tone.
Warm skin tone:
1. Look at inner wrist - veins will appear green.
2. Gold jewelry is more flattering than silver jewelry.
Cool skin tone:
1. Look at inner wrist - veins will appear blue.
2. Silver jewelry is more flattering.
Look at your wardrobe and hold up a few items in different colors against your face. Which ones appear more flattering to you in a mirror with natural sunlight? Which colors are you drawn to?
If you are not sure, ask one or two trusted friends or family members who's style you admire.

This web page is helpful. It has related sites listed at the bottom.
As for color palettes:
1. Earth colors are considered to be more neutral and natural
e.g. taupe or brown eyeshadow, soft blush (Nars Orgasm), lip colors that are like your own but with a little oomph (Revlon Lip Super Lustrous Gloss - Cherries in the Glow)
2. Jewel colors are considered to be more dramatic
e.g. blue or purple or green or shimmery eye shadows, black eyeliner, bold blush, deep burgundy or bright pink lip colors
You can choose from either palette as long as the tones are flattering and the intensity isn't too harsh for you.
You should start w/ a soft, greyish taupe eyeshadow with brown eyeliner for daytime and a shimmery champagne w/ black eyeliner for evening. Soft lavenders might work too.
Sheer lipsticks that enhance your natural lip color would be easier to find.

I have fair skin and gray blue eyes too and I find that using brown eyeliner makes my eyes pop and appear much larger and more importantly much much bluer! I use a light rose colored blush and shades of brown eye shadow...
Blue-Green, Browns, Pinks, and Black %26amp; Gray. I would wear white maybe occasionally. Don't put the blues and browns on really dark, I think the Pinks and Oranges would look really good on you and look good with your hair. It depends on your clothes mostly, like are they preppy, tom-boyish, or gothic, or normal teen style. Preppy in mostly the pink and orange. The tom-boyish would be blues/blue-green. Gothic would be blacks and grays. Normal you could wear just about any color just make sure it matches with you outfit. That'f for eye-shadow. For lip gloss maybe pink or clear. And lipstick is your decision I don't wear lip-stick so I know nothing about it. For skin color, you should test some or compare to your skin color. Don't get powder/ as long as you put it over foundation. I would suggest don't wear bronzer, cuz if you mess up you have to re-do your whole face. For blush I would suggest a light pink/red. And wear eye-liner with the color of your outfit. The white eye-liner looks really cool but don't wear it too often. And if you have long and full eyelashes you could probably pass on the mascara. I wear a whole binch though because I have small thin eye-lashes. Well I hope this helped. 閳绢櫄he American Idiot閳?~Luv Megan~
mascara is my life saver! i have blond hair, pale skin and blue eyes, a pink glossy lip is cute too!
browns are always a good bet for blue eyes...A subtle look for day would be brown eyeliner just on the bottom and maybe two colors one for base and one for highlighting on the lid and ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS two or three coats of black mascara ...A more for dramatic night look I would recommend adding a little black eyeliner (liquid) On the top close to the lashline and and another darker brown for contouring for a Smokey look...another great tip for a night look is false lashes they make your eyes really pop!
I hope I helped : )

My hair is naturally a really Dark brown almost black ... and i am fairly pale and i was thinking about going a blondish color. Will that ruin my natural color and hair? I have heard about after bleaching your hair it will turn gray is that true?
The darker the hair the harsher the chemicals they have to use to strip your hair of its color so although it will not turn your hair gray, it will damage your hair. From personal experience, I used to have dark brown hair and, after dying it blonde for a few years, decided to stop dying it and go au natural again but my hair never went back to being as dark as it originally was - it's more of a light auburn color now. So go for it but be prepared to possibly say goodbye to your dark hair. I agree that maybe you should just try highlights first just to see if you like the new shade.
No thats not true,
If you die your whole head blond it might have some effect on your hair, but not a drastic one.
If I were you I would die streaks blond, but not your whole head. you will not go gray either way. Your natural hair color will always grow back in time.
every body is different and it might dry out ur hair but it will not ruin ur natural color
why do you even want to go blond? it's not gonna make you sexier, no - blonds don't have more fun. no, it's not gonna make you more popular. i don't get it, if you weren't born with blond hair why dye it. everyone knows how hard and unlikely it is for blonde haired blue eyed babies to be concieved ...so normally a blonde head female is a fake. come on, try something else.
well if you color your hair it's going to damage it. If your hair is dark like mine and grows fast you will be spending over a hundred a month to keep it healthy and looking good. Natural is beautiful. Fake blond is fake and looks pretty yeah but it's not the real you. Believe me dark hair is exotic. maybe you should just restyle your hair and do a shine treatment on it.
First I Have been a dyed blonde for over 10 years and always remember that hot oiling your hair after dyeing is very important to maintain the color and the health. First what you have to do is lighten up your base color to a light brown then put in your blonde and platinum highlights. and that is what you should tell your stylists and always go to someone you can trust and that has been tried before.
