I have recently had my hair coloured (3 weeks ago) at a very reputable salon. My hair was dark blonde before and I went RED MAGENTA - Like Jonathan Ross' wife. (What was I thinking!)

It faded out VERy quickly and turned a really crappy dusty colour. I have been told to use head and shoulders shampoo to strip it out and to be fair it's worked really well... except for my roots.

I have even put it on the roots and let it sit for an hour but it only lightens slightly. I think it may have something to do with this hair being fresh and was just natural regrowth. Will the colour absorb more into virgin hair rather than pre dyed hair?

If so does anyone have any recommendations or techniques to help me lift the colour?

Thanks in advance!

I am off to Oahu Hawaii in March 2010 and am trying to find a hotel that is in the best location for Wakiki beach. I have heard there are some differences from North to South of Wakiki. I basically want to be with all the action but also in the best location for the beach.

If anyone knows the street names that are near the best part of the beach that would help a great deal!

Also if anyone has any views on better areas to stay (In Oahu ONLY) that they could recommend that would be great.

Please don't say look of Trip Advisor either as this just reviews the hotels and doesn't tell me about the location so much.

Looking forward to some good advice my TA! Friends. :) xxx
