How long should I wait to color my hair dark brown if I got the roots RE-highlighted a week ago?

My hair is medium brown and I dyed it dark brown for 2 years and just recently went to highlights. I have had them for about 6 months and want to go back to the dark brown. I'm not sure how long to wait to get my hair dyed back to dark brown since I got the roots touched up a week ago. HELP!How long should I wait to color my hair dark brown if I got the roots RE-highlighted a week ago?
i don't like to dye my hair more than once every 2 weeks. sometimes i'll do it more often if a color didn't take or come out quite how i wanted it to. just be aware of the fact that by dying your hair often you are putting harsh drying chemicals on your hair and scalp. if you dye your hair much before the 4 week mark, i'd really recommend using a deep conditioner and trying to pamper your hair a bit til it bounces back. dry it less, don't take a flatten or curling iron to it if you don't have to.





also know that the lighter your highlights and the sooner you dye over it the lighter your end result will probably end up after you put the darker color over it.

You don't have to wait a specific time to go back to dark! You can do it now....!


make sure that the hairdresser uses a semi-permanent colour on your hair which is a lot less damaging than permanent colours. You will also probably require 2 semi's that day, depending on the lighness(level) of your highlights. The highlights(bleach or colour) took pigment out of your hair which needs to be put back in. sometime one semi colour is not enough to cover highlights in one go.
