there is such a thing called color eraser i cant garentte that it will take ur hair back to a orgial color, but it will lighten it up, at least it should, as far as ur hair goes the only thing to do is get a ton mosterizer in it, espessally if u plan to get it it fixed, if u go in with dry hair and there is more chemicalls added to it then it will break off in great big patches but if u put a heavy conditioner in it for a couple of days it will not break off, but it sound to me like she fried ur hair there are some shampoos that will help make it sleek may even help it lay down, if there is a beauty supply shop around your area that is open to the public then go there they are supposta be professionals that should know what will help ur hair as far as the black goes u may have to go somewhere else to have them do a color eraser, and i would go back to who ever did ur hair and have them either give u ur money back or have someone else fix it not her if u dont trust her, and if they wont there is alway court (as a very last resort) but i hope u get it fixed they should fix it and talk to the manager or owner see what they say

first thing to do is not worry what other people will think. Go to another salon, ask them to give you something short and spunky, something not different, but not thesame. Live a little, have fun...besides it's college. Isn't having fun, part of being there. Get something new....don't be afraid...who knows ...you might even like the change. Besides ...it's only fur on your head....it grows back.

First and foremost, call the salon and talk with the owner about the terrible service you received. This is entirely unacceptable. The owner should refund your money and correct the color.

Second get a good conditioner like Redken Heavy Cream to help with the dryness and a serum like Biosilk to help with the frizz. Apply the Heavy cream to towel dried hair and leave in for 5-15 minutes. After rinsing squeeze out the water and apply a quarter size (or less depending on length of hair, that is what I use) amount of the Biosilk serum to wet hair. Towel dry and then style as usual.

I hope this helps, I can sympathize. The day before I started college for the very first time I let a friend perm my hair. I looked like an electrified poodle!! It was so bad I got reprimanded and suspended from my job as a model. They were p*ssed and I was horrified.

oh my gosh.. first of all, please tell me you didnt get the straightening and color done the same day... that would KILL your hair. never use ash in your hair, ash means the color has GRAY in it. a hairdresser should have known that. i suggest you pay the extra money and go to a salon. or if it is any way possible, go to a beauty school, where there are very qualified instructers who will help you fix the problem. they can be extremely helpful.

yikes!

well...when it comes to hair - you get what you pay for. EXCEPT when you go to a beauty school...great deal, and they really know their chemicals :) i would try the beauty school idea, if you need to save $$ - otherwise, get a referral for another stylist. DO NOT go back to the one that did that to you.

good luck.
