Yes you can put it back...but try the mildest vegetable dyes you can. These are the demiperms/semiperms that will not damage your hair. They will shampoo out over time 6-8 weeks, but you can use them to transition your hair while it grows out.A permanent color could damage your hair if it has been bleached. If you can, it would be best to go to a professional who has color expertise. If you don't have that option, proceed slowly and carefully to protect your hair.Best wishes,Karen> My hair is bleach blonde and chin length, I really> want it back my natural colour (dark brown), can I dye> it back, if so what with?Related Link:Queen Of Curly Hair

This is a 'salon only' color that is availible in many intermixable shades and can be custom blended to bring back your hair to what ever shade you want in most cases. If you cannot afford a salon and have to do it yourself, be careful! Haircolor is not paint! It interacts with the level of color that is left in your hair after you lightened it. The "base level" is very important to take into consideration when choosing a color. This is a job best left to a pro to correct. Try to find a beauty supply that has a detailed color chart and better yet a 'swatch sample' to compare your "lightened" hair color to find out what level and "tone" it currently is. Clairol and Loreal have good selection guides explaining the Color Wheel and how it affects color selection. Good Luck! email me if you have any questions. william
