Chocolate Brown

How do i go from black hair to chocolate brown without hair salons?

Ive been dying my hair black for 5 years now and i want to go to chocolate brown..ive tried pre lightners before but the top half went ginger and the rest wouldnt take even though i had it on for a long time. In the end i went black again. I really cant afford to go to a salon to get it done as i have a new born baby and she takes up all of my money!
Thanks x

Hi

Speaking from experience if your hair is dyed black you cannot go to chocolate brown without the help of the salon. I dyed my hair black a few years ago and attempted to put a auburn dye over it which left me with red roots and black ends!! I was totally unaware that dying your hair black was irreversible if doing it yourself.

The salon uses a very harsh chemical to strip your hair of any colour and then dye over it. Be warned though this does leave your hair very dry for a long time. Which was why I didn’t try this option.

The only option if you have minimal money is unfortunately letting it grow out. If your natural colour is light try a semi permanent dark brown over it to hide the roots (semi will eventually fade out). Or what I did was have copper highlights put down my parting to cover the roots as it grew out (this still cost me £50 though!).

If your desperate shop around for the best price to strip the colour.
