Asked: Should i just dye over my bleached dyed hair?
hi :)so i dip dyed my brown hair with bleach just the bottom half though, i did it once 6 months ago and it made it really dry and i just want my hair to be fully brown again, and i don't want to wait forever for it to grow out, so i'm just wondering if should just use a healthy hair hair dye my natural color and dye it over my hair? or would it be better and healthier for my hair to just leave it and wait for it to grow out, haha sorry i don't know much about hair.
Answers:
It will be okay to dye over it because it's been a good amount of time since you've added chemicals to your hair. You can dye over the bleach, but I would recommend using a brown with red tones in it so the brown does not turn green. If you use a light normal brown, there will likely be a noticeable green tint to your hair. I would also recommend dying your entire head or else the colour will not be evenly distributed.
There's no such thing as HEALTHY hair dye – hair dyes are made of chemicals and chemicals PLUS heat are hair's worst enemies. Chemicals can enter the body through the skin.
Yes leave it, or do one of FOURthings, to remove most of that dye.
1. By using Tide detergent with shampoo
Google "How to Remove Dye from Hair"
or
2. By shampooing you hair mix with a bit of Dawn.
Google "How to Use Dawn Dishwashing Liquid for Lightening Hair."
3. You can also use anti-dandruff shampoo, just not the conditioner.
4. Before bottled shampoo & hair products were invented, mid 60's, in Asia, all we've ever used was a bar of soap for body, hair & laundry, for 13 years and we have healthy silky, shiny, soft, smooth hair. Just make sure you rinse well. Try that if that works better!
Overlapping dye onto previously colored hair is what creates dullness and dryness. If you color your hair @ home or salon, let your roots grow out as long as you can stand, so the line of demarcation is easier to spot. Only run color through the lengths for five minutes to refresh the ends. To extend the time between touch-ups, use a gloss and deep -conditioning treatments. They will help smooth cuticles roughed up by daily wear & tear, and the hair will look shinier. ~ Harry Josh, hairstylist of the celebrities.

Playing with chemicals is not like playing with clothes, or doing a manicure, there are penalties for playing chemicals in the lab. Even hair color experts at the salon are not rocket scientists, they do a bang up dye jobs to their clients or their own hair.

London, Feb 20, 2013 I've been saying that since 2009.

Google: Teen 'feared she would die' after reaction to hair dye
The allergic reaction was caused by a well-known brand of semi-permanent hair dye Chloe used to turn her hair black for a Halloween party. . . . . called for beauty bosses to ban hair dye chemical PPD (para-phenylenediamine) from the shelves. 11-04-11
The chemical is not new and is present in a number of brands of dark hair colours, acting to help adhere the dye to the hair so that it doesn't wash out. Its made from coal tar and is used in both permanent and semi-permanent hair colours. Its well-known to be a cause of serious allergic reactions– including something called contact dermatitis which can lead to rashes, blisters, and open sores.
PPD is sometimes added to black henna tattoos and that using them is not safe. Allergic reactions usually begin within two to 10 days following application. One bad reaction can lead to sensitivities to other products such as hair dye, sunblock and some types of clothing dyes. Oftentimes, it's using the product a second or third time.
