At this point, its hard to say exactly what went wrong. Did the filler have enough red/gold pigment? Did she pull too much through? did she have snarly loops in the cap that may have caused the circles? With your situation, I hesitate to offer much else, since it's clear you need to get advise from a colorist who can assess your situation during a face to face consultation. Before doing anything else with your hair, you need to determine the condition and the exact cause of the problems. I would feel that I would be doing an injustice to you if I presumed to give you any other suggestions other than get in touch with a person who specializes in color. Call around the better salons in your area and ask if they have colorists working there that have special certification in haircoloring. I beleive that your color can be corrected, and you can get what you are looking for, but at this point you need to find someone that really knows their stuff. Your hair has been through quite a lot, and you need to get it right once and for all. Thats why, even though it will be more expensive, it is worth it to find the right colorist this time. On the plus side, your color will probably fade somewhat, so you may end up being happier with it next week.Im so sorry to hear that this has turned out badly for you. By the way, Im curious to know...did your stylist suggest to you that she use filler and cap, or did you mention it to her first. And if you mentioned it first, what was her reaction? I ask because I wonder if she was familiar and comfortable with the procedure, or if she preferred another method originally.
hi i would appreciate help again and thank you in advance.i used to have my mousey brown hair hi lighted but i let it grow out, i liked it but my stylist moved far away, so after it grew out i had it done and it wasnt what i wanted, it wasnt the yellow gold highlights but looked like 1970 frosting,she did use foil. i went to another, same look. after many months of living with it i had my whole head bleached out and use born blonde peroxide free toner. the roots came in too soon and i did want some depth so this weekend i had low lights put in. i asked for a small amount so i was more blonde than brown. a filler and a warm brown color was used with a cap. the color is what i hate it is brownish with blond that is so blended in that it looks like dull blond hi lites with brown. that color you see on a lot of people. i have blue eyes and fair skin and i can wear light colors,but this is the color you see on brown eyed darker skin women. i am saying this only to give you a better picture. well i cant stand it and i want to get it out with meteleex and try another person. any advice/? I AM LOOKING TO HAVE HI LIGHTED HAIR MORE BLOND THAN BROWN AND NOT TO LOOK DULL AND ASHEY IN FLOURESANT LIGHTING.i hope you can advise me i have 6 weeks outgrowth also. i am a dog groomer and i keep my hair a bit below the chin it is sorta fine but i have a lot of hair, i only mentioned my profession because i am around force dryers and heat all day but i condition a lot. again thank you.
