How can I get rid of brassy color?

My hair is naturally a light-med brown, and I used to color it blonde all the time until a couple years ago when I let it grow out. I just dyed it yesterday with 2 oz of Clairol hi-lift 12GN color (gold base) and 4 oz of 40 volume creme developer and left it on for 45 minutes. I love the color, except that it is very brassy and I'd like for it to be about 1-2 shades lighter. I'm wondering if the brassiness is because of the base color (I want more of a light yellowish-blonde...not gold/orange), or am I doing something wrong? I don't want to bleach my hair first because bleaching always dries my hair out so much and I have very thin hair. I need advice from a professional stylist or colorist. What can I do now to remove the brassiness and lighten my hair another 1-2 shades, and then what will I need to do to get the same color when it's time to touch-up the roots? I can't afford to have my hair professionally colored but I want it to look like I do.

It's definitely because of the base color. Use something with a blue or green base. Ash blonde or Platinum. Unfortunately I think you will do more damage trying to achieve a yellowish golden blond if you do it yourself.

You can find products that take the brassiness out, they come in little capsules you can get them at sally's you mix them in with your hair color.

But I wouldn't attempt..... it sounds like you need professional help with it. You will end up doing more damage to your hair, and probably have to cut it..

I have a lot of experience in color, and wrecking my hair.

Go with blue or green base.

Getting rid of age spots used to be a major deal. The only way was to have a doctor burn them off. You had to suffer blisters and scabs and be careful not to wet the spots that had been treated. You had to use an antibiotic ointment for a while as well, to avoid infection. You also had to pay for this procedure, as it is considered cosmetic and not covered by insurance.

We would all willingly suffer this inconvenience if it would solve the problem. But, just when you're healed and are happily living your life again, thrilled to be looking better and not self conscious anymore, those ugly brown spots will begin to reappear.

Unless you are super careful to slather on copious amounts of sunscreen, or wear gloves constantly when you are outdoors, you will start noticing them again. It can get very discouraging. And, even with lots of sunscreen and gloves, probably no human is capable of being vigilant enough to escape the sun's relentless

rays.

Now, thank goodness, there's a much better, easier way of getting rid of age spots. It works better than the doctor procedures and better than bleaching creams. You will be happy to learn that ridding yourself of those spots can now be done with an unusual whitening cream. What makes a whitening cream unusual is its ability to reduce the melanin in your system.

When you are out in the sun your skin gets darker. The tan you get is actually melanin. Your body produces melanin to try to protect you from getting burned. In your youth you can manage to get an even tan all over your exposed areas. But as you get older, you don't tan so evenly anymore.

You may develop freckles, blemishes, uneven skin tone and worse, skin cancers. Most people don't realize that staying out in the sun and getting tan as you get older is highly overrated. In the long run it doesn't make you look more attractive at all.

It seems to take people a while to wake up to the punishing damage their skin is taking. When the wrinkles and sagging skin start appearing they finally begin to realize it's just not worth it. But by then you've got an uphill fight ahead of you. It's a shame you have to ruin your skin to learn a lesson. It's a shock to see yourself looking worse rather than better.

Finding the right whitening cream for getting rid of age spots is like striking gold. You need to use one that can reduce your melanin by close to half. Find one that contains no chemicals, like so many of the bleaching creams that are being touted. Bleaching creams as a rule are irritating, too.

When you are working on getting rid of age spots you don't want to lighten the whole area, only the brown spots. But just try putting on bleaching cream on one dot. It's practically impossible. It will spread to the unaffected skin, lightening it as well. In a scenario like that you can't win. If the surrounding skin gets lighter along with your brown spots, you haven't really accomplished anything. Everything may be lighter, but the spots are still there. Hopefully lighter, but against an even lighter background.

A superior whitening cream that is chemical free should also have ingredients that help boost your collagen and elastin levels. This will dramatically improve the appearance of your skin. Be sure, too, that the latest and greatest antioxidants are included. Not only will they search and destroy the killer free radicals enjoying a swim party in our bodies, they will act as a built in sunscreen. These are important added bonuses that you deserve when working on getting rid of age spots.

If it's your hands you're concerned about, it's true that a wonderful whitening cream will improve the appearance of your skin enormously. Yes, you will succeed at getting rid of age spots on your hands. But if your hands have popping veins from lifting weights, you're in the same fix as Madonna. Even with all the money in the world she can't seem to get rid of those veiny hands from her workouts. If she succeeds, I will write about it and tell the world.
