I apologize if this has been brought up before, but I have a problem concerning fading.
My hair had been dyed for 6 years, and the dye would basically fade after 2 weeks to a brassy red- but only the roots would fade, not the ends! It was terrible.
Finally I went to my new hairdresser and she recommended a deposit-only color that would prevent the fading. She took my medium brown hair to a dark chocolate brown, which I love. However, I'm really concerned that it's going to fade to that brassy red so I have been reading many tips on here :)
I do CO which has helped keep the color vibrant and really dark, but I noticed that there was still some brown dye left on my scalp. I mixed a dime sized amount of shampoo with half a bottle of water and poured it on my scalp. But it still faded just a tiny bit :( I'm going to stay with CO from now on but I know eventually it will build up and I'm going to have do a shampoo rinse. Is this unavoidable that I will have fading, or can I take more steps to prevent it?
I tried a BS rinse before and it was terrible. I used Garnier Nutrisse for colored hair and I didn't even use straight shampoo, yet it still faded. Does anyone know of any ways I can do a more gentle yet effective rinse?
