ive dyed my hair for over 20 yrs now, my natural hair colour is mousey brown but ive got it black at the moment, i want to go back to my natural colour, anyone any ideas please ?

As I am a bloke, I would just shave my head and let it grow back (the only problem now is the growing back is a bit "patchy":hihi:)

I would let my roots grow to about 2 inches, then go to the hairdresser and ask them to give me a very short, stylish haircut.

Get it stripped.

You could try and get it stripped but you would need to grow the roots out a bit anyway to show the hairdresser what the natural colour is, then get it stripped (which will probably make it patchy and lighter than your natural colour) and then dye over with a shade similar to your natrual colour...I would advise going to a really good recommended hairdresser for this, I would give you the details of mine but that would be too far away,....expect to pay quite a bit for this....

Good Luck

Oh Sorry - I thought Michael Jackson had started this thread - my mistake.
