Hi everyone,
I hope someone can give me some advice or info. I went to a hair appointment yesterday to have green staining removed from my waist-length bleached (balayage from the ears down) hair, put alot more ash blonde put in to the still dark brown ontop of my head, and a cut and blowdry. I had been fading out Manic Panic's Ultraviolet for the whole of lockdown, and it had left it a light mint green.
My hairstylist used all the tricks to remove the stubborn green, and then toned it with a coppery colour to even it. Then she began the foils.
Unfortunately, I had more cut off than I had wanted - to bra strap length. I really wish I had stuck to my guns with the length I had planned, but this is besides the point of my post.
My issue is - for some reason, she decided to put certain multi-tones throughout my hair. The underneath has a great amount of dark chocolate brown put in. I hadn't been told that she would do this.. My intention has always been to get lighter and ashier. I feel like she probably did it to cover the copperiness of the removal she had already done.
I asked her - will this dark fade? is it a toner? She said yes. I want to know from other professionals - is this the case? The hair was originally bleached to a level 9-10 before all this, so it feels like a waste to see it so dark (as my natural colour was) I'm panicking that it won't fade/become light again, and I feel saddened to have paid so much for a look that I didn't want.
I must commend her on the removal of the green, but this outcome is not what I wanted, and feels like it's taken me further from my end goal.
Can anyone tell me the nature of these darker toners? I don't know whether to jump into the shower and wash my hair with Head & Shoulders, thus wasting the entire toner. I feel like I ought to message her tomorrow to ask her about all of this too. Sorry for the long post, and any help is appreciated.
