Hair colouring / highlights problem

    An amount of time ago, i got highlights in my hair. Right now, for certain reasons which i can't say for certain reasons, i have to get different highlights. My hair is black.

    I cant wait more than two days for certain reasons so growing it and clipping off tips is not an option. But i cannot go to a hairdressers and have them make it black and then put in the highlights, i must make it black myself, for certain reasons, and then go to the hairdressers and get the highlights.

    Basically my question is, how do i make my hair all black again myself, if i want to get blonde highlights done the next day? Where can i get the product i need for this?

    And please do not reply if all u have to do is discuss the certain reasons.

    i must admit due to the "certain reasons" it was a little confusing to read, however i ll say no more on that.

    I would strongly advice you to go to the hairdressers to get the colour changed as you want, because they will have to remove the blond hightlights ( basically strip them) and then put the black in place. I may be a little wrong in the exact details to this, however this is what i was told had to be done when i went from blond to brown, so as to prevent the blond highlights constantly coming through and me having to keep going back to get them covered.

    Basically what im saying is, if you can do go to the hairdressers :)

    Depending on the colour you put on your hair, the highlights could go any colour! I'd recommend "filling" the highlights with a red colour (even a semi) before tinting them black.

    I agree with Heyes - "certain reasons" sounds pretty dodge to me!!! and I recommend going to a hairdresser otherwise you could end up ruining your hair. Oh, and please note that the colour you put over your highlights WILL fade and they will show up (to a point) again.

    I'd say go to a hairdresser. Bleaching hair yourself is tricky business. Heyes is right - the colour will have to be stripped from your hair in order to place black back in properly. I have black hair myself (with highlights) and it's very tricky to colour. I wouldn't do it on my own.
