Hair Dye at home

[qtjess1110]

I have Dark Brown hair. I always dye at home with all different brands colors all in the brown family just to get some grey out and get a little change. But I swear the color always looks brown. I have tried all variations of brown, Anyone know of at home hair dye that would actually change my hair color. Or do I have to go to a salon to get that change.

I've been using the Ion brand from Sally's the last few times I've dyed my hair. www.sallybeauty.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-SA-Site/default/Product-Show?pid=SBS-305340&dwvar_SBS-305340_color=2N+Darkest+Brown

I've been happy with the colour, but I know what you mean... I feel like no matter what my hair always fades to the same colour, even with permanent dye!

I would go to Sally's and talk to them. They'll be able to recommend a brand for you.

If you are trying to use dye that is lighter than your natural color, it won't work without using professional color and probably bleach/lightener first. So the color you use will cover gray, but probably won't change the rest of your hair because it won't pick up the pigment.

I dye my brown hair red and it works. But I wouldn't go lighter ever.
