I had low lights and highlights put in and I literally looked like someone could play chest on my head. AWFUL!!!! I washed my hair about 20X and someone suggested Prell. It helped along with an another dye job.
Before you give up this look, I would strongly suggest that you get a camera and take a picture. Look at a picture of you now and the way you were. Compare the two. Even if you just go in the mall in a booth and take a picture, it would give you a better idea of how this haircolor really looks on you. It's more objective. I still think going from grey to brown is a shock to the internal eye. Even if it looked fantanstic, your internal eye would be searching for that other color.
Recently, I went more blonde. I am naturally a dark blonde. I thought that the new color looked totally fake. I was actually embarassed to go out. But, when I did, I got compliments from strangers on how beautiful my hair was. I saw my hair color of the ceilings of the store and realized it was pretty and didn't look like an Easter Egg Yellow after all. After that, I decided to keep it.
P.S. I am glad that you are feeling better.
