Hair color nightmare... help!!?

Question

I purchased a highlighting product to use. I have colored and/or highlighted my hair myself for the past 15-20 yrs. I have NEVER had a problem with color not working. I just used an Herbal Essences Highlights kit with the comb. Hubby followed directions to a T... Didn't work!! I have a skunk stripe down the center of my head. The product didnt color the lower sections of my hair that it was applied to. Has anyone else had a problem with this product? I plan on the company to complain, should I ask for my money back because it didnt work as it stated it would? All I can say is thank goodness I dont mind wearing a hat.. Yes, its that bad. Thanks for any input.

Update:

My hair is a medium brown.. all one color.. no roots..

Well you if you have color on your hair already then the ends will not grab as fast as the roots because of new growht and the heat the scalp puts off. The developer in the box was strong enough for the roots not the ends. You needed a higher developer to lift the color out of the ends. There will always be color build up on your hair and it will always remain in the hair shaft. Thats why box colors/bleaches arent good unless you know about hair and they are never guaranteed. Professional use only and if not a professional basically use at risk.Most of the time box colors and bleaches will only show the estimate result on natural virgin hair which has never ever been dyed or bleached.

Why wear a hat when you have a cool way to be unique? It could be worse. I have a very noticeable streak down the center of my head, too. It is called skin.........like in Bald.

I once helped a room mate color her hair once. It came out bright orange! She got used to it after a short time and re colored it after a few weeks. Funny thing - she wouldn't let me help the 2nd time. I wonder why?

Did you have alot of roots showing? Usually when dye doesn't take to the bottom it is because the roots were lighter and took the dye more than the rest of the hair. That is a little weird though.

This got here approximately to me earlier, Dont hear to that different chick, do no longer DYE YOUR HAIR BLACK. have confidence ME. never dye your hair black in case you prefer to alter your hair colour plenty. right this is what i did, Ask for a reimbursement on the region that ruined your hair. and you will desire to pass to a diverse hair salon, verify it relatively is totally expert, it would desire to be slightly expensive yet once you prefer to restoration your hair its well worth it. And pass possibly like a medium brown, or ask the hair cloth wardrobe for some advice. Bleached hair is amazingly no longer worry-free to artwork with, there's no longer sufficient pigment in it to hold a very wealthy colour. additionally ascertain you purchase a toner, use it as quickly as a week after washing your hair. wish this enables, stable success.

Either enough product wasn't applied for it to process properly, or if your bottom is darker, it didn't lift enough. You have a stripe on the top of your head, so it wasn't faulty color, it did process that area.

My girlfriend had the same problem! I had to pay for her to get her hair done because of that ****. Sorry but it would be very difficult to fix it yourself.
