So i bleached part of my hair, and i'm not liking it.

My natural hair colour is dark brown, and now i have a blonde part, i'm thinking about dyeing that part brown again with a permenent dark brown dye so it looks like this has never happened. Is this a good ideia?
Plus, i'm always changing my hair colour with semi-permenent dyes, so after this, will the part with the permenent dye repond the same way as the natural hair to the semi-permenent one? Get the same colour and shade and fade evenly?
Hope i manage to make myself understand.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I don't know a whole lot about this but I guess I'll reply since no one else did yet. When the hair is bleached it becomes more porous which can create a problem with permanent dyes, it will likely turn out too dark and then procede to completely fade back to blonde in a few weeks or so. It is usually recommended to use a demi-permanent color a shade or two lighter than what you want and mixed with a protein filler. To make sure it ends up the same as your natural color it might be best left to a professional.
As for dyeing often with semi-permanents it might not be the best idea since the bleached porous hair will tend to grab more of the color causing it to be darker than the rest of your hair, and it may not fade completely.

Thank you so much for your attention

Since nobody have replyed till now i've decided to try a permnent dye anyaway and it turn out really nice, but as you say, the colour is fading quickly, so i'm giving my hair a rest and in a couple of days i'll dye it again.
Best regards to you

Be warned about over colouring your hair. I coloured my whole head with ash blonde every 6 weeks, after the 3rd time it started breaking off big time. I didnt realize you are only ment to touch up the roots
