Question hair color

my hair is naturally dark dark blonde and i have been coloring it light blonde for about 6 or 7 years now. if i wanted to go to a hairstylist and tell them to take the color out would they be able to or have I been coloring it too long?

I'm not a hairstylist or anything but if you're lightening your color, you're probably using a product with bleach in it and as far as I know you can't reverse bleaching. I think the only thing they could do is put color on it to match your natural color. BUT if you've been bleaching it for that long, you might want to check with your hairstylist. Your hair is probably damaged from the bleaching and it may make it worse if you color it on top of that.

They can't take the color out, but they can color over it with a darker shade that will be close to your natural color. This will not damage your hair, as they don't have to use a heavy peroxide solution like you do when you lighten the color.

All you can do is try to get a dye that is close to your naturally hair color and let it grow out. i dont think you can take color out of your hair unless its black and you have to get it stripped. you might be able to do that with a lighter hair also. If i was you just dye over it.

Your hairstylist can color it as close to your natural color as possible. You'll just have to keep going back for touch ups 'til the lighter blonde color grows out. I know, it's a pain to have to wait that long. The other thing, is to keep cutting an inch or so off to get rid of the lighter color as your hair grows.
