Hey everyone, another hair questions for you all!

I have my naturally dark brown hair bleached to a very light blonde.  I have been debating if I want to go a little darker.  Not to a brown, but to a darker shade of blonde, one not so bright and sunshiney!  lol!

Anyhow, my problem is whenever I try to darken up my hair it turns this hideous shade of gray or into a lavender purple.  I have been told this is from my love of bleaching, lol.

Anyhow I was wondering if someone could advise me on what to use before I dye my hair so that it will pick up the correct color and not make one of its own.

Please help me out someone and let me know some product names and what i should do!

Thanks so much!

You need to add yellow and red tones to your hair before coloring.  Depending on what level you want to darken it to.  You can use a neutral or gold color and then color with the shade you are looking for.
