However, he quickly realised that he'd made a mistake when he saw how dark the dye came out.
At that point, he tried to get it off - scrubbing vigorously at his face.
But his attempts were unsuccessful, and his hair and beard were left an extremely dark brown, verging on black.
His fiancée Charlie had to step in and lend a hand, but they ended up shaving his hair and beard off completely.

How can I fix dye damaged hair?
Have you taken the dye too far? There are some ways to fix this WITHOUT chopping the whole lot off.
Give it a trim:
we're not saying you have to cut the whole lot off, but you should trim the worst offending split ends.
Ditch the heat products:
stop straightening/curling your hair immediately.
Stop dying your hair:
step away from the bleach, and starting using ammonia-free semi-permanent dyes for now.
Switch to sulfate free:
use kinder, sulfate-free shampoos and conditions to repair your damaged hair. And don't shampoo more than twice a week if possible, because this strips damaged hair and makes it brittle.
Treatment masks:
use one of these hair treatment masks, listed below, to rejuvenate your locks.
Sun protection:
cover your damaged hair when sunbathing or swimming in a chlorinated pool, to prevent further damage.
Eat your hair healthy:
make sure you drink lots of water, eat Omega 3 fatty acids found in salmon, walnuts and flaxseeds, and green veg like spinach, kale, carrots and avocado. Some pre-natal supplements also promote hair growth.
"Ohh noooo!" someone else said.
"I did the same to my husband TWO WEEKS BEFORE OUR WEDDING!!!" another exclaimed.
"You have to use the colour to remove the colour from the skin," someone else advised.
"You don't wash the colour off - you add a little bit of water to the colour on your face and hair and rub it into the skin.

"And it lifts the colour off your skin."
"Or nail polish remover and a towel and scrub!" another suggested.
"Didn't line the edges with Vaseline!" someone else said.
"Though the worst mistake was using Just for Men. Superdrug's own brand is way better."
