I use a light brown 'non-amonia' hair colour and it is too dark. Can anyone tell me what c

I use a "Level 2" (non-amonia) hair colour. I chose one that is a light brown, to tone down the brassiness of the blonde chunks in my hair --- which is mixed with the grey I have, and to mix well with the brown hair chunks I have. I like it because there are hardly any roots to deal with.



The problem is it was too dark...even though it washes out in 24 shampoos. It's been 2 weeks now, and it's just getting where I like it now.



If I washed it out sooner in the application of it, it wouldn't last at all.



It's the lightest brown that brand makes---if I go lighter, it will lighten up the brown too much. Should I use the lighter anyway?....and just let it lighten up the brown, just so it will blend the roots, %26amp; the grey with the blonde?



HELP please! My hair is THICK and strong.

i dont think the hairstylist knew what you meant by "level 2" -that is not a color(perhaps in another country it is?) it is the non-permanent type-washes out in 24 shampoos kinda thing It is less harsh on your hair and gives less grow out appearance You can either try a lighter color of the same-try a different brand perhaps- or go for a pro but then be prepaed to keep going back with lots of moolah. (money) There is also a product called "glazing" you put it on to refresh color as it fades and it is very temporary and easy to use-also gentle and wont fry your hair like permanent dye or bleaching(ahhh) You could use it in between



Or you can settle for dark-maybe add some red tones or go even darker. Its all a compromise til you can get your hair to grow out those chunks .Be patient and let it grow and keep using the brown you like best Next time dont color small portions so you wont have that chunky problem



I use a light brown 'non-amonia' hair colour and it is too dark. Can anyone tell me what colour to choose?

a level 2 is one step up from black, so i dont' know why you thought you were using "light brown". anyway, if its too dark, try washing your hair w/ dish soap a few times...it helps strip color out. other than that, you have to just wait for it to fade, or get it fixed professionally. you can't redye it and expect it to get lighter...color doesn't work that way. you have to strip it out or bleach it, which should absolutely ONLY be done by professionals.



start with the dishsoap (palmolive works good). it'll "speed up" the fading process.



good luck!

Pictures of brown hair with chunky blonde highlights?

Okay so I'm not sure whether to just get chunky blonde highlights in my hair or color the top blonde and underneath brown. People have sent me some pictures of the blonde on top and brown underneath now can someone send me pix of brown hair with all of chunky blonde highlighs throughout. Maybe it will help me make up my mind. THANK YOU!!!

Pictures of brown hair with chunky blonde highlights?

I'd go with something more subtle like this if i was you. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/190/46360...



other than that, maybe search kelly clarkson, she had some very chunky blonde highlights at once.

I'm a man and I just wanted to let you know that bleeching one's hair is not necessarily an improvement. Many men prefer women to be natural.

Putting a colour in my dark brown hair...?

i have dark brown hair and i want to put some chunky colours in.



i just found this picture -

what colour is the light colours and the top?



would it look good with dark brown hair?



would it look funny on me coz i have dark brown eyebrows too?



thanks



Putting a colour in my dark brown hair...?

Hi



I'am a hairdresser and that is bleach 6% bleach i would guess i dont think it would look funny but it would stand out if you want to be noticed.



I would give you a I would give you a 8% bleach and copper or caramel tone through your hair so it would not look so choppy with colour.



But yes you could have that look.



Putting a colour in my dark brown hair...?

It looks like a 2 - color highlight with a blonding agent (bleach) , alternated with a high lift blonde hair color with a richer, warmer tone. (One is brought up to a pale blonde, the other is a golden color).



If you do it as a highlight method, which it is, the eye brows should look fine.



Putting a colour in my dark brown hair...?

Looks to me like a caramel colour on the top. I think it would look really cool with dark brown hair as it would look more of a contrast. As for your eyebrows it will look fine..



Putting a colour in my dark brown hair...?

Yes I think it would look good with dark brown hair but I LOVE auburn highlights on dark brown hair. I think it is very attractive. The picture you chose I would say is a lighter red colour.

Brown or blond hair?

i have brown hair, and i like it but it seems like evry1 likes blondes. it drives me crazy, so are brown hair or blonde hair better?



Brown or blond hair?

I definitely prefer brunette over blonde. Blondes generally(not always) give off a stupid sense. Brunettes are sexy and they seem really smart. They seem to have a smart, creative, and fun personality.



Brown or blond hair?

Now Daveycakes, you must know this blonde's that are real blonde's are very smart do not "give off a stupid sense."



Its the blonde's who want to our look dye there hair and cause all the problems for the real blonde's who do make a name for ourselves being smart,educated,and fun. Just a little FYI Report It



Brown or blond hair?

Brown or blond hair?

I'm a brunette %26amp; am quite content with this. You've heard the old quote: "Blondes have more fun", but did you know there was more to that quote? The full quote is: "Blondes have more fun but brunettes get married." I'm not dissing blondes though. If God gave you blonde, brown, black, or red hair, be content %26amp; happy it's not grey! :)



Brown or blond hair?

well it all depends on the face. some brown heads have nice face and some blondes have pretty face. but i would think both are nice



Brown or blond hair?

try getting some highlighter for your hair . if get some sun your hair will be brown with blonde highlights, that sounds awesome to me



Brown or blond hair?

brown hair, get your hair frosted and it will look great.



Brown or blond hair?

Brown hair looks far better than blond hair.



Brown or blond hair?

depends on your color of skin.



Brown or blond hair?

Red Heads with freckles that get beat by there stepmoms.....hot stuff



Brown or blond hair?

neither one is better....it depends on the person and what he likes.



just be glad you have hair.



Brown or blond hair?

Brown!!! And if you have brown hair and dye it blond it looks offal!!! Brunettes have so much more fun!!!



Brown or blond hair?

it really doesn't matter. do you like your hair. don't worry what other people think. i mean come on. if you dye your hair a different color do it for you ,not for what everyone else thinks ,cause that's all they're doing is worrying what everyone else is doing.



Brown or blond hair?

Both are good, but darker skinned people look better with darker hair.



Brown or blond hair?

Er, I don't know about girls but I find guys with brown hair more down to earth and sexy. Blondes have a certain airiness about them I don't like. They're both still very nice though.

Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

My mom thinks that black hair can be referred to brunette hair. And I was like "No mom, brown hair is called brunette hair." And she was like "No, when a person with black hair walks down the street you would say that girl has brunette hair." I said "No you would say she has black hair. It's it's seperate catagory." She said "No, there are only Brunettes, redheads and blondes." I said "No! Brunette, black, redhead, and blonde!"



Who's right?



me or my mom??



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

you duhh were did your mom get that?



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Sorry to tell you but your momma is right!!!!



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Your mom. Brunettes refer to dark haired people.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Mom



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

::::EDIT::: I was wrong!!



brunet or brunette: marked by dark or relatively dark pigmentation of hair or skin or eyes



brown and black hair both have dark or relatively dark pigmentation



check the wikipedia for yourself



being brunette is just having dark pigmintation



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

your mother im sorry to say....



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Well in Biology, Diversity there is only 2 different hair colors..They are Brown and Not-Brown.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

your mum is right, sorry



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

you both are bc they really dont have a classification for just black hair but it is different im with you



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

your mom of course.



: a person having brown or black hair and often a relatively dark complexion -- spelled brunet when used of a boy or man and usually brunette when used of a girl or woman



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Brunette refers to dark hair, be it brown or black... so Mom's correct on this one.



Sweetie, brown IS brown and black IS black, but the term "brunette" refers to EITHER black OR brown. It's ALWAYS been that way. Say black, if you mean black and brown if you mean brown... but brunette if you mean either black or brown.



"Brunette simply means "dark."



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

You're right. There is black hair, red hair, brunette, and blonde. Those are the main categories but people don't really advertise black hair as much for example on buddy icons there not going to say, I like to party because I'm a black hair and those icons that have the color and the name could be a misinterpratation.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

i know can you belive it like if blonde %26amp; red were the same color



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

sorry hun,



I have to say that your mom is right.



There is no such thing as a person having black hair,



even though it may appear to be.



it would just be really dark brown.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Your mom. Technically no-one has naturally jet black hair. It is actually very very dark brown that looks black. Unless of course you die it jet black. But natural hair color is only Browns, Reds and Blondes.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Your mom.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

There's also gray and white, I'd say your right



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

you are. But alot of ppl refer to black hair as "brunette"..i dont know why..but for people that do that, you might want to look up the wod "brunette" in the dictinary, i.e.:dictionary.com or even wikipedia.org.....but to answer ur question..you are totally right!



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Mom rules: I've always believed/understood that those with black hair were also called brunettes, as in dark-haired, though it does seem like they should have their own category/term.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Brunette in common usage refers to dark brown or black hair.



Even if i didn't know this already, i would have said you were wrong simply because you sound like an ignorant little girl. and the fact that you have to ask a question like this on yahoo answers makes you lose all creditability towards your intelligence.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

your right, black is black,blonde is blonde,brown oin brown, and etc.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

i would have to agree with you,



black is black, and it will always be like that. so nomater how hared your mom trys- the black will stay black and brunette will stay brunette



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Sorry, your mom is technically correct... see dictionary definition at link below.



"a person having brown or black hair and often a relatively dark complexion -- spelled brunet when used of a boy or man and usually brunette when used of a girl or woman"



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

I have heard it said that there is no such thing as truly "black" hair, just extremely dark brown hair. If you were to bleach someone's hair that looked black, it would turn out orange, showing a great deal of red coloring in the original hair, like brown, so it can't actually be black, can it? There is an actual pigment to the hair, just like skin.......there are people with dark skin, but no one is truly "black-black". I think you'll find that very few things in life are truly "black", simply a very dark blue, brown, or green. Check out art sometime......they almost never use true black, even for shadows.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

I agreed with you until...



Webster says:

sorry!



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Black hair is rare for Caucasians. Asians are the only race which has black hair...all of them do.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

you



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Black hair is black hair ...Brunette is brown hair.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

you ^_^



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

I would say you are right, the make up of black hair is very different from Caucasian hair whether it's brunette, red or blonde.
