I want to dye my hair dark brown, but how?

Okay, I have wavy, frizzy hair that goes over my shoulders. Right now it's this ugly medium orangy-brown sort of color, and my roots are growing out, which my hair is naturally very dark brown/black. I want a dye that will slightly lighten my roots, and darken my ends. Which dark brown dye is best?

I want to dye my hair dark brown, but how?

Most drug store dyes do not lighten, and those that do will not lighten more than two levels. Look for a shade that is in between your roots and ends.

Stay away from henna...It is semi permanent, meaning it will wash out eventually (not evenly), and permanent store bought dye can not be used over top -- your hair will snap. Most commercial henna dyes contain metallic salt or "compound henna dyes". This isn't good for your hair and will dry it out.

Ash shades are much lighter than dark brown and have a "grayish" look. Brown is a neutral color...there is no need to counter the red tones with other shades.

Please go to a professional. They are the only ones who can tell based on the color you have left and how it will affect the new color. You might end up very orangy, or worse.

My best advice would be to approach a professional. I tried to correct my colour too once on my own and I botched it. My ends were darker and my roots lighter in the end and it looked horrible and it was fried. A professional will guide you through your options and be able to weigh the pros and cons of each route. Good luck!

You can either go to the salon or do it yourself (buy hair dye from a drugstore). I personally do it myself because I don't like spending 4 hours sitting in a chair, and also because it's a lot cheaper. If you chose to do it yourself, you can buy hair dye from any Rite Aid or CVS.

If you're picking a shade of dye that's darker than your normal hair color, then the color on the box will be the color that your hair will turn out to be. If you're picking a color that's lighter, it will be a lot darker than how it looks on the box, so pick a color 2 shades lighter than what you want.

you should go to any drugstore (walgreens, walmart, etc.)

on the back of the boxes of hairdye it has a color chart. it has a picture based on what color it is, what color it will become. pick a box that will make it the color that you want BASED on what color it will make your roots. because the rest of you hair is lighter, it will automatically make that darker and blend.

Since your hair is in different colors and you want it to look natural growing out, this may be the time to stop by a salon. You could try picking out a dye at the local drugstore (I do!), but what will you do if it doesn't work and your hair looks worse? I think that it's just too much of a risk for something that you have to wear on your head every day.

You need to understand one color won't do what you want. I suggest using a natural hair color that is good for your hair, Herbatint, which won't dry it out.

Buy an deep ash brown.

The ash tones will get rid of the odd looking orange tones, and the deep ash brown tone will even out both the ends and roots.

When you add deep ash brown dye to dark brown/black hair you get a deep ash brown tone.

When you add deep ash brown dye to orange brown you get deep ash brown.

It's important to get a shade that not only blends with your natural hair color, also corrects the hair dye mistake.

Nice 'n Easy-try using an ash color to lessen the red effect. It comes w/a conditionerr which should help w/the frizzies.

If you don't want to see a hairdresser, and prefer to do it at home, I would recommend the Nice and Easy brand. I currently use the medium brown shade. It actually looks dark brown, not medium, which is what I wanted. The Nice and Easy is really gentle on the hair and comes with a great conditioner for afterwards. I also have curly thick hair, and it seemed to make my hair less frizzy. I am happy about that. Plus, it is a lot cheaper than the salon. One thing I would suggest - if you color your own hair, part your hair as you normally would when it is styled. That way, you can get the roots to look right. Good luck!

it is better to let your hair grow and loose its color. then cut the ends until you hair looks nice and healthy. if u are lightskin then use a light color, if u are medium then use a dark color to make ur skin look better. you should use fructise sleek n shine for ur frizz, ir really works

I don't know about the "lightening my roots" part, but you could try a henna or a non permanant hair color. Hennas are very safe and don't contain chemicals unlike haircolor, and they last a long time. You don't get that "roots" look because they come out veeeery gradually. There is a liquid henna on the market called Surya that is from India that is very good. I use the chocolate color. Hennas give nice highlights too, so they look more natural and more exciting looking, not flat color like a dye. If you have Surya left after your first henna application, you can save it by recapping it and keeping it in a cool dark place to be used later. You can't do that with haircolor.

thats impossible unless you buy 2 boxes of color, a permanent for your roots and a demi permanent or semi permanent for the ends. (deposit only)

My advice to you is to go to a supply house such as a Sally's one thats open to the public, they are all professionals, I'd use Ion Color, It's rich and vicrant and makes your hair shine, I'd use a 10 volume on the ends and a 20 volume on the roots, at the stores, well I really don't trust them. hope that helps.
