Hey everyone,
I just dyed my hair so it would be a light brown but instead it turned out to be like a dark brown. Do any of you have any advice on how i could lighten it up w/ out dying it again? Thanks....

dont touch it.
it takes about 2 days for hair color to fully oxidize on your hair, so if it`s past that point, consider stripping and redying (you cant lighten color with color)... otherwise, wait it out, use a harsher shampoo than you normally would (to pull out some of the color) and see what happens in a day or two... you may be surprised (worked fo rme when my dark brown dye job went GREEN-ick for the first day and a half... 3 showers later, I was happy as a clam :))

If you just did it, try some dish soap. Yup dawn or something. DO it a few times. It should help "pull" out some of the color. Make sure you use a deep treatment on your hair afterwards.
