Hi! A lot of the time when I dye my hair, the color comes out wrong. Pink's become purple, dark red's become bright pink, grey's become blue etc. It's happened both when I've bleached my hair before and when I haven't, and it's happened with different brands. Do you have any idea why this is happening, and if there's anything I can do to prevent it?
Hi! Its hard to say as I don’t know what colour base you had and what dyes you’re using. When bleaching your hair, the lighter your base, the more likely you’re going to end up with the colour you want to achieve. There are some dyes that just never go the colour they are supposed to, and some (like grey) are time sensitive. Grey for example is a blue or purple base, so if left on for too long then the base colour shows more than the light version of that. Often it helps looking on haircrazy on the dye galleries to see what colour other people’s hair has become when using dyes. Reds sometimes have purple tones for example and if you can see that on others, you can try a different brand.
Sorry I can’t help much more without specifics.
