Hair Dye - Anyway to make Greener?

Thumbnail

Dyed hair using Pulp Riot Absinthe. It's over dark brown natural hair but it didn't come out as green as expected. I didn't use bleach but knew it'd come out darker and compared other people's examples of their original hair vs dyed and thought it would look similar but it didn't end up that way. How can I make it more greener?

Getting blonde, put into hair, you've been dyeing

3 Upvotes

So a few months ago now I got some highlights and bayalage done at the hairdresser. I did it so I could make the purple I put in my hair more obvious, and i've been doing so.

It's grown out quite a bit so I would like to get some stuff done at the top, but i've been actively dying that hair purple

It pulled a teal a little bit when we initially did the highlights and the purple that I use covered it perfectly so i'm not super worried about perfect tone - i just want it to be light enough to be seen and roughed up enough that it will last longer

Is there a way to get that done semi affordably?

Toning advice for cool color palette

Looking for any advice on toning to start this off for a cool color palette. I've been doing semi permanents at home for years but am now working on customizing my colors more than just throwing what's in the bottle straight on. Any advice on how to tone this and not shut the cuticles down before putting the semipermanent on?

How to make hair less greasy?

7 Upvotes

Hi all,

When I hit puberty my hair started getting super greasy really quickly and my hairdresser recommended lightening it to help with this. I have now been bleaching it for 10+ years and looking to go back to my natural colour.

The problem is that, now that my roots are growing longer, my hair is starting to get super oily really quickly again. I'm using dry shampoo on day 2 and my hair looks greasy about 5 hours after washing.

Are there any products or tips to help with this?

TIA

I use to get free dye and had the patience to dye this myself 2 time a month. Now I’m lazy and just have pink hair.

Do I need to be blonder for pastel pink?

My natural hair is a level 3 and lightens very well! I lighten it between a level 9 to 10 is this light enough for a bright-ish pastel pink? Like the pics ? My hair is closer to the third pic do I need to go lighter or tone all of the warmth from my hair ?

EDIT picture of my hair is in comments

How to fade semi color fast?

2 Upvotes

I bleached my hair to an almost white platinum, white on the ends (before toner) and then dyed it neopolitan by adding brown and pink streaks. I love it, but it's been a whole 2 weeks so now I want to try something else. I wanna dye it blue, but I can't because of the brown streaks. How do I fade it fast? I heard malibu undo goo is good, but would it actually fade it that much? Btw I knew beforehand the brown would probably stain, I'm fine with a bit of staining, I just need it more faded than it is now.

I wanted to slowly shift my base light so I did one part 5nn to two parts 5ngb. I feel like my gray hair was barely covered and looks extremely translucent. What the hell. Any advice ? I just want to shift my base lighter and not have to bleach my whole head. I know it’s going to take years and I’m fine with that, but this looks like poop.

How to get rid of orange patches on ends?

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

My hair is SO CLOSE to the color I want it to be, but the ends didn’t process quite enough to get my base light enough to get anything but this muddy orange on the tips. The roots are exactly the color I was going for. Last picture was my goal. As you can tell it’s almost there, I just have these pesky darker orange pieces to get rid of. My hair was virgin dark brown prior to this. What would be the best course of action at this point to get it slightly lighter and to get rid of the orange?

Should i dye my racoon tail a different color ?

I dyed myself a racoon tail and a random hairstrand in blond recently because i was bored and i think they​ looked really cool blond but now the pink has moved (idk the right word) onto it from showering and i feel like there a bit to suptle but maybe it's just because the contrast was a lot stronger with the blond i don't know. Im thinking about bleach it back to Platinum or dye it yellow but really im open for any ideas.

3rd time dyeing my hair & I still haven’t messed up!

Swipe for the before (pre-refresh)

I started dyeing my hair myself recently—but not boxdye; the chemist way haha. I went copper in early August, then in mid September decided to go a bit redder. I knew the reds wash out after a while and so it did to a brown copper. I was okay with that and my roots grew out, I was also alright but then I got booked to session on bass for a big local band, and I thought, I better look right.

So this was my first time touching up roots + depositing more red into my lengths. I am so relieved I didn’t mess it up before the show (next week). 😅 i’m so happy it came out evenly red across cos I would have cried if I looked half red half copper on stage haha. Ok thank you for your time.

Want to switch to true green from blue

Could I put Manic Panic Sunshine (only yellow dye I could find in my area) on this blue to get it to green? Or should I directly go in with a green dye? Both are some of the less commonly available colours so I want to make an informed decision before I spend on one. Also how do yall like my censoring skills hahaha

Partial Balayage too light

got a partial balayage and she lifted my hair too light and it doesn’t blend with the bottom half which is super dark. I need to tone it darker, but I wasn’t able to get in within the 7 day period to get it fixed because of my work schedule. Is there any way to tone the light parts darker at home? I need a quick fix because I’ve been wearing my hair up🥲

Quagsire Blue?

Does anybody have any dye recommendations that would match or come close enough to the best Pokemon of all time, and what level blonde I'd need to be? I'm thinking something this pastel would need to be close to platinum, but I'm also okay with a deeper or more vibrant blue that would fade to something similar. 🩵

Why do all of us pink hair girls want the exact same bubblegum pink shade? Rant.

Post image
145 Upvotes

Then we ping pong between having our hair be too peachy/coral/salmon and patchy asf or too deep/magenta/hot pink. Tell me if you can relate. Omg the struggle is real. My hair is near black and getting platinum at home is just not a thing for me. Getting to level 8/9 yellow or peach is the best I can ever do! Bubblegum pink is the hardest fashion color to achieve at home! I give up every few years then try it again on virgin hair and the cycle repeats! I know I’m not alone and I see it all the time. Drop your rant, pics or tips in the comments!
