Can you dye your hair at home after getting your hair highlighted professionally?

For about two and a half years straight, I've gotten my hair highlighted blonde all over at a salon. Lately, I've been trying to save some money, and it would help a lot if I could dye my hair at home. The catch is, I want to go back to my natural color--a medium brown color. Is it safe for me to try and do this myself, or should I get a professional to do it?

If you want your EXACT natural color back, go to a salon so they can strip your hair and get it back to it's original base. If you have a pretty close idea of the natural color, then you should have no problem doing it at home. Go for a more expensive brand (like that new Natural Match dye, or even Herbal Essense)... just make sure it doesn't contain ammonia which can fry your hair.. depending how long your hair is, you may want to use 2 boxes to ensure that you covered all of it.. it's also good to have a friend help you to make sure you cover all your roots and underneath.



Just make sure you don't dye your own hair at home too soon after you've had it done professionally. Give your hair at least 3-4 weeks break before dying again, to once again, avoid frying your hair.

If you do it yourself at this point, it will all fall out.

that is a tricky question, my personal opinion no! it really depends on what color it is now, how much you trust you can cover it all, how long it has been and if you choose the right color if you have high lites and you back to brown you may need it filled before hand or else it may turn greenish! color is usually less expensive if you don't do high lites
