hair dyeing question of doom

[maevele]

so, I dyed my hair, (all 2 sq inches of it) with a cheap drugstore red, and it didn't come out half bright enough. I still have plnty ofdye, so I was thinking of just slapping anouther treatment on it, frying it, I know, and see if it lightens/brightens it like a motherfucker. I don't really care what color it turns out, I'd just rather my hair not actually fall out.

So, should I take advantage of it's chemically weakened state to get a brighter color, or will I end up bald? I'd have posted this to like "hairdye" orsomething, but I don't have time to find such a place.

If it's not a bleach type hair color, you could do it again without worry. You only need to worry when there are harsh chemicals that "lift" the hair color off of your hair. If it's an amonia containing permanent color, you could do it again, but you might want to wait. It also depends what state your hair is to begin with. If it's damaged, it would be good not to chemically treat it again so soon.

Good luck.

I forgot to say that my mother is a licensed cosmetologist and this is her advice.
