Is there anything I can do to lighten my hair a little?

I dyed my hair…but it accidentally turned out a LOTTT darker than I meant it to and it looks awful! Is there anything I can do to lighten it a little immediately??

Answer #1

You can use a “soap cap”. Basically, you put shampoo on your hair without diluting it and then either put on a shower cap or wrap your hair in saran wrap. (This keeps the heat on your head). Keep the soap cap on for about 45 minutes and then wash it out. You may need to do this several times to lift the color.

Answer #2

You can try washing it a few times(a strong dandruff shampoo like Prell may be helpful)…dark hair dye fades out a little with each washing.

I don’t really recommend using a lightener just yet, as it could really damage your hair.
