How long do I need to wait to dye my hair back to black?

I dyed my hair a day ago trying to get a nice dark brown color, but instead my roots came out a reddish brown and it looks absolutely horrible.

Answer #1

u better wait at least 2 weeks.actually 4 weeks is the best.in the event you do it to soon your hair will get rubber-like break and fall out!!good luck.

Answer #2

I did that a few times and only waited a few days to re-dye it because I’m impatient. For a few days before you do it, once a day soak conditioner in your hair for 5 mintues to absorb all the nutrients. Since it’s only brown you’ll be fine, it’s not like you’re bleaching it. Once you dye it again, be sure to keep conditioning daily like I told you.
