You cracked up this POB (poor old bag)! I once, after having gone blond years before, decided to go back to my natural color with Nice n Easy. When I tried to rinse it out it was as if I had put glue in my hair, ended up having it cut really short. I don't know what went wrong.

Again trying to bleach out or color remove the black can also give unwanted results. It has to be watched very closely or there can be damage to the hair. A demi color would be the best choice on the blonde..it is a deposit only and use one shade lighter than the desired results. But now maybe you have started a new trend..lol. JMHO
My hair is 90% grey with just some darker hair left at the nape.
So all I did was put a temporary med brown and also a temp. lt. brown on, unfortunately in the wrong places.
I've washed my bangs with Dawn today already. I'll do it again in the morning.
I really appreciate everyone's suggestions.
"Or veddy vveddy posh?"
Maybe it looks better than you think?
Got a camera? Have somebody take a picture from the side?

Go to Sally's Beauty Supply and ask for cream developer, wash hair and dry with towel, put on cream developer and leave for 20 mins, wash with shampoo and towel dry.
Check to see if it is lighter, I put some on my hair once that turned it orange - worse than Lucy's - went down to Sally's and talked with person there and she recommended it. For three days I did this about every waking hour to finally get that stuff down to a shade I could handle.
We were in Calif visiting friends when I did this, picked up the box beside the color I really wanted....did not read the label again as I knew what I was doing.......good lesson? ALWAYS LOOK BEFORE YOU PUT IT ON YOUR HEAD!!! Even have pics of it, thank goodness only 2 people in the whole state knew me.

You can use vinegar or lemon juice mix with some baking soda to make a pasted. put this on your hair and rub it in then mix some of it with some shampoo. Shampoo your hair a couple of times this should help. Just be glad it wasn't perm. color.
Yes I use to be a hairdresser.

I'm not worried about it anymore. I've been using tips here and also washing it at least once a day sometimes twice and the color is probably 1/3 or 1/2 gone.
Everyone says I look younger.....ha! But they've turned my head enough that I'll probably color it again in a couple weeks. Thanks to everyone who offered suggestions.
You all are terrific.
