It should lighten up with a few washes, I also dyed my hair to a chocolate brown at the salon and it looked really black but within a week (washed it every day) it turned to a dark brown.

Have you tried rinsing it a few more times? This happened to my best friend, and she washed it with non-color treated hair shampoo and it lightened up. I wouldn't re-dye it because you'll damage your hair... but if you do have to, go about 2 shades lighter (they always come out darker so that they don't fade as quickly) and use a GOOD conditioning treatment right afterwards!

But try to re-wash it - get in the shower and wash it about 3x, rubbing the strands between your palms.

Start washing with very hot water, that will wash out a lot of the color. Or you could redye it but wait a day or two and choose a light color than you think you need. Choc. brown is very dark, go with a liter brown. Good luck. Of course you can always call the company their number should be on the box and they can also give you some answers.

omg i know how you feel! i died mine "dark brown" 3 weeks ago and i came out COMPLETELY black. i hated it.

Tips on getting dye out that worked for me:

1)wash hair with prell and scrub out

2) a mixture of tide and water (wash it in, then follow w/ a good conditioner)

3)Regular hand soap such as dove works

my hair was pretty much back to normal after 2 weeks and now i love it =]

It will wash out!!! Try shampooing your hair as many times as you can and use a shampoo like pantene pro-v "classic clean" that should strip off alot of the color. Hope this helps!!!

They sell hair color remover and it works. I think they might sell it at walmart.

You could lighten/warmen it up with highlights and lowlights from the drugstore/CVS that come in the boxes. heres my suggestions/example:

Highlight color {not to light ot it will contrast against the black so much it makes it look darker/more noticable}:

lowlight color:

Salons are very expensive! It is teriable for your hair but if you want a cheap and quick fix, bleach it. Bleach will make it lighter but make sure you read the box. Once you bleached it you can leave it as it is or dye it again.

A safer option is a product called Color Opps. I takes out the color of your dyed hair. Your natural hair will be revealed but like bleach, it still isn't great for your hair.

All this can be found at your local drugstore (ex. Walgreens)

In time it will naturaly fade.

Hope I Helped!

The only way to lighten it the best and healthiest way is to get it done professionally, but it might cost alot. if you wash it with a clarifying shampoo or a shampoo that is not color safe and is a cheap brand it will pull some of the color out, but not all of it. There is no quick fix to this.

I did this to get rid of reddish hi-lights and my hair turned

black.....rinse with dawn dish soap (original),

my hair is very thick and healthy so I did dye my hair

and then I just used a quality conditioner after each

shampoo

that is KEY otherwise your hair won't fall out it will

get dry, damaged and break off.

good luck oh and stick with the same brand of hair

dye...you could go to a salon for a fix but be ready

to pay...I called my sis she is out of state for help

as she has been doing hair for years.

carmel, blonde, black, dark brown, brown, and light brown.

once you wait a while your hair color can change.
