I need major help. I have natural brown hair which I have been getting colored auburn for some time now and I love it. Recently I went to my hair dresser and asked for blonde streaks. The first time the result wasn`t bad and I liked it but she had lightened my whole hair color and I didn`t like that. The second time I asked her to put the orginial darker auburn back in and keep the blonde streaks. But what ended up happening was that she covered the orginial blonde streaks with the darker color and just put new streaks in different areas which ended up looking like I had a layer of hair on top almost totally blonde and auburn underneath with almost bright red streaks where the blonde used to be. At first it was ok... not what I wanted but ok. I decided to go again but to a different girl. This time I got the second set of blonde streaks covered up with the darker auburn and had just chunks of blonde left in the front. It`s basically redder on top, darker auburn underneath with the brighter red streaks growing out and the blonde in the front. It looked ok, at first and I had compliments on it but it`s all fading and not looking so good now. I have so many different colors in my hair and I want to grow my hair out long but I`ll have all of these roots. I just want to get back to the orginial darker auburn all over and just forget the blonde streaks. What can I do to get back to that without having to wait for it all to grow out and getting it cut several times? It`s confusing I know! Does anyone have any ideas??
