Getting rid of bleached roots!

To get your roots to match your lengths, I would use a dark gingery blonde semi on your roots, like something from Adore. It's hard to say exactly which color to get without a photo of your bleached gingery blonde color, but some diluted Adore Ginger, French Cognac or Cajun Spice may work. You can see swatches and examples in the BU shop/gallery and in the showoff section too. I would dilute it though with conditioner to make a sort of toner with it and strand test it first on a small piece of your roots to make sure you like it first.

When  you're wanting to lighten hair that has permanent dye on it, it's best to start with a color remover, just for future reference in case you ever want to change colors again or brighten your red. So if you'd rather try to lighten your lengths instead, use a color remover or two like One n Only Colorfix, Colour B4, Decolour Remover, Color Oops, etc. This will remove your permanent dyes and your hair will probably be lighter than it was when you bleached it. It can take 2-3 applications though if you have a lot of dye buildup. They aren't damaging, just drying (you have to rinse for a long time afterwards) so be sure to rehydrate your hair afterwards. From there you may still need to do a bleach bath on your ends, though they probably won't get as light as your roots did because using dark dyes for a long time can permanently stain the hair, usually some shade of ginger. It definitely will make the difference less noticeable though, especially if you use a good semi over it, they have much better coverage than permanent dyes.

Whichever route you choose though, I would stick with semis like the ones sold here 🙂
