Beige blonde hair dye turned my hair grey!!!?

My hair was a really golden blonde but i wanted to tone it down a bit so i put a permanent beige blonde all over and it looks really ashy and grey, i think it would be ok if the colour wasn't so solid, my friend is a hairdresser and wants to put bleach foils throught the top....what do youz think i should do? My hair is still in good condition and i always use intensive conditioners to stop the fried look, any similar experiences?? Thanks xx

I have had experience in this and I think you should let your friend put bleach in it.

If you just did it, try using dish soap to wash it. Make sure and have conditioner on hand, cuz it'll be stripped!

Beige is a cool base, which means green or blue. Next time, although I do NOT advocate doing your own color!, mix that with half a bottle of the same shade in neutral. Especially in blondes, it's important to have representation of all the natural colors.

If it's too late to try to lift the color out a bit, foils are a great solution. Good luck!

Use a clarify shampoo.And yes let your friend put bleach foils through the top it will help break the solid color up.

The last poster is right about the undertones of color. You should always use a neutral base when coloring light hair....I know too late right?

If you have a Sally's Beauty Supply near you, go in and ask for Malibu treatment. It comes in a little packet. You add the crystals to hot water and pour it over your hair. Cover your hair with a shower cap or plastic wrap and leave it on for about 30-45 min.

The Malibu will pull out some of the blue tint and bring out more of the golden tones to help bring it back to a reasonable color.

This will happen naturally with many washings, but it helps to get you there quicker.

The product is inexpensive so I recommend you always keep a packet on hand in case you ever decide to try again. ;)

Yes indeed, she knows what she is doing.. This is the only way to get the color stripped out if it is beyond 24 hours since you did it. The developer shouldn't be anything over 20..

30 vol left in foils too long might give you some breakage.

Next time you use a color try using a toner instead of a permanent tint. Were your ends much lighter than the golden color from the roots to the middle? IF so, the tint grabbed those ends because they were just too porus.

Have your hairdresser friend do your color or reccommend one next time.. And stay away from the platinum based too unless you want to be blue. If I use beige blonde toner on my lightened hair it turns it a nice pink... NOT so nice I should say.
