What color is my black hair going to turn when its dyed brown?

without bleaching it, I want to know what colour my black faded hair is going to turn out afteri dye it brown.

Answer #1

It depends what dye you use, and if your hair is dyed black or naturally black. If it is dyed black then it will most likely do nothing- you need a color remover to remove the color before you dye it again. If it is naturally black, you may notice a slight color change, but more like a lighter black, not brown.

Do NOT, Leave the dye in for longer than the manufacturer’s instructions. The instructions are there for a reason, these are chemicals you are putting into your hair, and different chemicals react with different things at different times. I am in hairdressing training, and I’ve seen too many people disobey the instructions on colors/bleaches/products, only to wash out the solution and have the client’s hair literally fall out. I’ve seen people BALD because somebody decided they knew better than the instructions.

I strongly suggest you go to a salon and get it done professionally.

Answer #2

Well, there’s the possibility that no one mentioned yet… it could turn orange!!! D=

Lol, make sure you have a back-up plan ancase it goes wrong, wouldn’t it suck if you had to go to school like that?? =/

Answer #3

it’ll go brown, I have black hair and idd it brown, it turned brown. I just left the die in longer, so like if it says 20 mins, I did 30 mins, depends how much brown you want in it. it works thoo :)

Answer #5
