Hair won't stay dark brown?

My hair is naturally medium brown and over the years I've been dying it from blonde to brown. Well like half a year ago I put bleach in my hair to get it to be blonde but it wasnt a really pretty color so a month later i gradually got it back to light brown. But for the past 3 months I've been dying my hair dark brown because it looks the best. The only problem is: it won't stay dark brown! It always fades away to light brown and it's reallly annoying. Like I dyed it dark brown 4 days ago and I was sooo happy with the color but this morning after washing I realized that it's fading away to a light/medium brown and I think it's because there's bleach in my hair. It makes me really mad. How can I get it to stay dark brown? I AM using permanent Loreal hair dye...

You may need to add a filler to your colour formula. Example: add 1/4 to 1/2 ounces of water to your colour formula.Water is a good filler because it's kind of natural. Or you could try putting your colour on your hair when it's damp (toweled dried). Make sure you use a Shampoo and Conditioner for Colour Treated Hair. Once the bleached hair has grown out it will be easier for you to keep the darker brown in your hair because there will be pigment back in your hair. There's no pigment in your hair from the bleach, therefore when you colour your hair the colour has nothing to grab on to. that's why you need to add a filler to your colour.

Go to a professional. You may have to let it grow out and cut it back before it will take color like it should again. Sounds like you are doing too much to it.

The answer to this is the bleach you have underneath. The new dye has nothing to "grip" onto so you need to "fill" it. Without getting to technical, next time you dye your hair, put a semi colour on first to create some red pigment say a reddish brown just put it on without diluting. Then put your dark brown colour over the top and process for as long as you can. Another idea is to "top up" the colour by using a brown colour shampoo in between colourings. Hope this helps you.
