At the moment the bottom 10cm of my hair is turquoise. I'd always been planning to just cut this off when i got bored of it, but was just thinking and out of curiosity, could i dye that bottom turquoise back to my natural brown without bleaching it.
It probably just makes more sense to cut it off, seeing as its the ends and pretty fryed anyway, but just curious if that's something that would actually work.
If you put a darker brown over it then i imagine it would cover it up. But if its lighter it might not work so well.
mmmm, i imgaine if i let it fade loads then a dark brown would cover it, i wonder what that would look like when that faded though, probably a strange kahki toned brown π
As a previous blue-head that had to dye my hair a dark brown for a job interview (bah, didnt get the job :/), I can vouch for the khaki/green tinted brown π Its not pretty either....
If you add a little red or orange you can neutralise it. See the colour wheel for more info.

I've heard some people say that ketchup can stain your hair so maybe try a little of that on the turquoise. It'll make it a yucky shade of brown but obviously a good base for brown dye to go over.

Yes indeed. If I wear to do this again (go from blue to brown) without killing my hair this time then I'd stick directions mandarin on it to neautrise and add warmth then do a dark brown. Instead of colour b4 (failed) bleach (failed) brown box dye (killed my hair)
