Can you dye your hair over permanent hair color?

About two weeks ago I dyed my hair jazzy red ( I used Silk Elements permanet hair color) but it didnt come out how I wanted it to. It wasn't red enough and only the front of my hair got really red but the back only looked reddish brown. I've heard people say you can use a color stripper. And I was wondering could I Just dye my hair jet black and will it cover up the color I have now? I plan on keeping my hair jet black if I do decide to color it again.

Answer
Yes, you can. The lighter part in the front might not hold the color as well. Don't use a color stripper.
I'm a professional hairdresser. Can't really give the best advice without seeing and feeling hair texture.
Good Luck!

Hair Color Gone Wrong?

Valencia

So yesterday I went to the beautician to get my hair colored. I specifically sent her multiple pictures of the color i wanted. So she comes back with a jazzy red. It was really pretty on the box but in order for my hair to take any color, she had to lighten it with a lifter. Fast forward she but the jazzy red in, washed it out, put another red in , washed it out, and i ended up with this rihanna red color. It was cute yesterday, now i hate it and its hideous. I have blonde and pinkish roots from the lifter, it's too red for my skin tone, and i just all around hate it. Thank God my hair isn't damaged or falling out. I really wanna go back to black but i know i can't dye it again anytime soon, and trust me it is freaking ugly. Its making me look really unattractive and trashy. What can i do? And I'm not going back to her

Answer
It's possible that the color she put in was just a semi-permanent color and the stylist didn't realize it. Another scenario could be after bleaching, or lifting, it made you're hair too porous and after a wash or two the color just fell out. If you color your hair often this happens quite commonly. Just go in and schedule a PPT regiment over the next month or two. Simple, cheap, repairs the hair like new! As for the color, next time you go in, no box colors btw because they ruin the hair faster than anything, let them know the situation and ask them about using a filler to refresh the color and bring it back to the original brightness, the way you like it. I would also recommend, not knowing your hygiene or beauty routine, to wash your hair once every few days. Still shower every day! And if you can't deal with greasy hair there are tricks for that. Also, whether the grease grosses you out or not, wash with cold cold water! Hot water opens up the cuticle of the hair to let in vitamines and moisture, but also lets out color that doesn't take. Leading to fading. Voila!
