Home remedies to speed color fade? (when color is too dark)

Hi,

I used Lumia natural brown and it came out a pretty color but about one shade too dark for my complexion. I have been shampooing with clarifiying shampoo mixed with just a couple drops of ajax (followed by intensive conditioner) for a couple of days and I haven`t really noticed any results. It is not drastic enough to warrant the damaging process of stripping or removing the color, but I would just like to facilitate the natural fading process. I currently have extra virgin olive oil on my head (under a plastic bag and towel) because I read that on this site. Any other suggestions?

Neutragena Anti-residue shampoo is a good one. Be patient though, it should take a few weeks to fade. With normal washing it will fade. I have been through this before. Your right not to want to go to drastic. It will happen!!
