What should I do?  I got it done at a salon.  I dont really want to go back and let them touch my hair again, is there something I can do on my own.  Or should I just suck it up and go to a different salon and shell out another 100 bucks?!?!

I would certainly go back to the salon and explain what you want.  They should fix it for FREE, as long as you don't touch it.  I think to fix it a demi can be applied to the lighter oranger parts--probably an ash, but it sounds tricky cause I know you want the top to blend with the bottom.  Don't let them fix the entire mistake at once.  Schedule two appointments, make them strand test a small section (one you can see) the first time--you go home and make sure it's what you want.  If you like the fix, go back later and let them redo the entire top part.  Just my two cents.  I love your hair, and am sorry this has happened to you.

I think I'm missing somethign here. I thinkit looks good. I like it... i can see the ends look darker and your roots are lighter but it looks cool in the pic.... hmmm
I'd maybe wait a while and see how it changes, or go toa  diffrent salon or.. go back and bitch.
It's your hair, you should get what you want. :)
Good luck!

Tinkerbelle~

You have really beautiful hair and it really suits you!  I know what it's like when you spend good money at the salon and have the job turn out poorly~ or not what you have requested.  I think you should go back to the salon as soon as possible as well. 

I understand that you might be concerned about the same colourist touching your hair agin, but maybe it's possible to speak with the salon manager or a senior colourist~ and get their opinion and agreement to fix it for you free of charge (which they SHOULD do) ~? 

You might also mention to whomever you are speaking with that you are uncomfortable with the same person fixing your hair since he/she is the person who messed it up in the first place and that you'd feel better if someone else~ (possibly the salon manager or another senior colourist) does the job.

Good luck~ I hope it goes well for you!

Thanks guys.  I am in the same salon but my colorist moved...so I got the new girl   I am hoping to get an appt this weekend...as I work monday to friday 8-5 and have a little one.  Hopefully, I can get a good colorist...who will be able to put some darker lowlights at the top and take out the brassy. 

 

 I just feel so bad right now   Thanks again for your support!

Your hair is beautiful, I can't see any orange, read my story in the bloopers forum and you'll realize it could be worse, my hair is ruined for the next 2 years.   I was blind sided by the hair dresser I've been going to for 6 years, "she tried something new" without telling me about it.
