Hairstyling - highlights gone bad


Expert: Don Orlando - 11/2/2009

Question
I recently had my very light blonde hair lowlighted and highlighted for a more natural look. well , it's been a disaster.. I went in for a touch up because my roots were coming in and so my stylist highlighted the hair again and did around the hairline at the base of my neck so now the root area is white and then the hair changes to a darker blonde as you get to the end of the hair. Its horrible ! I can't put my hair in a ponytail because people will see all the white sections in my hairline. Should I go back and get them to fix it? or can I do it myself?? I thought maybe about dying my whole head back to light blond but i'm afraid the bleach spots will just get worse.. HELP!

Answer
Jennifeer,
u cant dye this back. impossible!
Lets try this.
go to the beauty supply and buy Clairol Second Nature.  Get # 142 and #137. Use 1oz of both and mix with equal amts of 20 vol peroxide.
Apply all over.
Leave on for 20 mins. No shorter. Shampoo and condition.
This will tone those whites and enrich the rest.
Stay away from that colorist. He is unexperienced,
Don
