So...  Heres the sitch.  I have been dying my hair darker (dark brown with slight red tone)than my natural shade of medium ash brown.  I really want to go back to my natural color.  I recently went to the salon to get my roots done to a slightly darker shade of my original color so that it would blen with the grow out that I had going.  Unfortuantely.  They dyed it a red red brown.  So i went back in to have them fix it and now it is a dark brown with slight red undetones again. (slightly darker than I had originally dyed it)  what is the best way to get back to my natural color.  should I just wait and let it grow out or is there something that I can do to lighten it so that the grow out is not so obvious.  I wish that I would have just dyed it myself.  I never have any issues that way.  Oh well lesson learned.  Please help.  I am okay leaving it the way that it is for now but in about 4 weeks I would like to do something to make it easier to go back to my regular color.

u can try to use a demi-permanet of your natural hair color cut it short then let it grow then cut the other part that is not your natural color out

I would prefer to keep it at least shoulder length.  So basically I just have to let it grow.

I would let it grow out.Since it's darker with red in it.U won't get it back to med. ash brown.U would have to use bleach to get that color lighter & I wouldn't do it.Bleach is really harsh for your hair.Don't ruin your long hair.
