What color were you trying to achieve?  Remember that haircolor always looks brightest and darker the first week after coloring.  You could try washing your hair everyday with shampoo, because it's actually the water we shower with that fades our color.

Congrats on graduating!

**Hair type: 2a, which is wavy and fine.
**Color: Naturally dark brown, currently dyed reddish brown.
**Length: below shoulder length

I want to go back to my dark brown color. My friend just tried to get rid of her black hair, and it is now five different colors. I dont want that to happen, so... I appreciate any help. Thanks

Yes, that can happen when you try to remove black. Black can be very permanent, so it isn't something anyone should do thinking it might be temporary or reversible.

I suggest you find an experienced colorist to help you with your problem. Good luck.

It might take the black out, it'll probably take some of it out. Try a strand test before you do a whole head experiment. Be prepared to recolor afterwards, it won't give you an attractive color, so you'll need to do a demipermanent color over it. You might want to figure out what your next step is after you see what Colorfix does to your hair.
