The dish soap should help it fade, just wash it repeatedly with it, and condition very well afterwards. If it doesn't fade it enough for you, you may still have to go to the salon, but you can try this first.

Liquid Tide will help it fade too. It won't remove it completely, but you may be able to lighten it to a shade you can live with. Take Susan's advice, though -- condition well afterwards because it is drying. I think your only other option would be going to a colourist who specializing in colour correction. You could try removing the colour yourself with a couple of applications of ColorFix, but this could lead to other problems. I think a salon is your best bet.
