Trying to fix a stubborn color correction on a client's hair took me three whole days

Honestly, I had a client come in with a bad box dye job that turned her hair a weird greenish-black, and I thought a simple color remover and toner would fix it in one afternoon. Ngl, it took three separate sessions over three days, using a gentle clarifying treatment and then a custom demi-permanent formula, to finally get it to a neutral dark brown. Has anyone else had a color correction that just would not budge, and what was your final fix?

Man, that greenish-black is the worst lol. Did you have to deal with any weird banding from the old dye, or was it just a solid block of stubborn color that wouldn't lift evenly?

My cousin's hair turned swamp green for three months after a box dye disaster. It was a total mess.
