Dye Your Hair
 
say if you dye you hair can you do it so it turns back to how it was like in a few weeks or month

you can get hair dye that washes out, but that usually only applies to products that make a natural light colour darker.

Making dark colours lighter may require some bleaching & is not so easily reversible.

However hair grows about 1/4" to 1/2" a month and always grows back your natural colour, so at worst you can cut it all off & grow it back again :)

if you use "semi-permenant" or temporary colours it will wash out in a few weeks. just don't use the permenant ones! these are usually more pricey anyway. try stargazer, or have a look and see how many washes a dye lasts.

what colour hair have you got, & what colour are you wanting to go?

If you are only going a shade or two different to your natural colour even permanent colours fade significantly after 8 weeks and if you have any grey even a very light brown will look dark for the first couple of washes. At least permanent doesn't run in the wet but if you are a different colour a root treatment will be required every 6 weeks or so.

About 10 years ago I decided to bleach what I had left.

Of course, no-one told me that the peroxide would burn several layers of skin from my exposed scalp :grind:

Once it all calmed down I ended up looking like a cross between the barman from Friends and Jimmy Sommerville, so it all got shaved off a few days later.

All I would say is be careful what you put on your hair.
Dont go for the cheapest hair dye out there, preferably go to a hairdressers.

My eldest rang me in tears one day last year, said she had dyed her hair to go a chestnut colour, and she had and turned ginger instesd, and all I could do was laugh!:)

I had a ponytail back during 6th Form / 1st year at University (way back in the mid-90s... :erm: I feel old :( )

Near the end of my first term at uni, I died my hair with a permanent hair dye (Clairol Nice 'n' Easy, IIRC...)... it was a kind of dark reddish colour...(I would have preferred black, but it would have looked even more stupid, given that I'm mousey blonde with fair skin).

After a few weeks or so, it faded... and turned ginger :(

I promptly had the ponytail cut off*, and then let the dye grow out & went back to natural.


*[And then later ceremoniously burned it while at the pub]
