How to cancel out the red in my hair
Hello! Over the past 2-3 years, I’ve had my hair dyed by professionals multiple shades of brown. I used to be blonde and initially wanted to go back to my natural colour (I was told is level 6) but the stylists dyed my hair almost black to be begin with. Since then, Everytime I’ve been to the salon, we’ve continuously altered the formulas to find something that I liked. At one point, most of the formulas had more red in it. The following dyes were done to try and cancel it out.
I am at a point where I truly want to have my natural colour back. I’ve been growing out my roots for 5 months now and this is what I am left with. The red dye is still coming through quite strongly and I am so tired of it. The colour difference is not as obvious in indirect lighting, but as soon as I am in direct lighting (like outside) my hair clearly shows the different shades.
I am wondering if there is anything I can do at home to cancel out the red tones all while still growing out my roots ? If not, what could I get done at the salon to neutralize it and ensure I have a colour that allows me to fully grow out my hair without having to get it done again? Is my only option being patient and letting it grow out over the next 1.5 - 2 years ?
Thanks ! :)
