Hi,

If you keep washing it with the strongest shampoo you can find it should fade fairly quickly (remember to use a good conditioner to keep your hair in good condition though)

Hope this helps

Probably a little difficult at this time of year, but I've found that exposure to a lot of bright sunlight helps fade out the worst of the harshness of the colour fairly quickly. As always, it helps to use a conditioner regularly to keep it from becoming too dry and brittle.

my friend is a hairdresser and she reckons that if you wash your hair with washing up liquid after dying it it takes some of the dye out. not sure if this is true but it could be worth a try.

try washing your hair with borax or head and shoulders shampoo both will help to fade the colour.

Hairspray, I used washing up liquid and it helped. I also used Head +Shoulders combining both and they definately lightened my botched hair job:--)

I posted this question recently and tried the suggestion of washing up liquid which worked well, I used an intensive conditioning treatment after and my hair turned out great.
