It depends on the integrity of your hair. If you are really damaged to start with, you may wanna wait and do a few conditioning treatments in the meantime. Also, depending on how light your hair is now, and what color you want to go, the color might not hold for long. After pulling all the tone out (that's what you do when you go lighter), you'd need to get your hair "filled" by a stylist (add the natural pigments that hair has back in), before you color it again.

The most that could go wrong is that your hair could get a little fried. I would wait a month or so (if only to see if you like the color or see other people's reactions, and just precautionary so you don't fry it) and then if you do decide to change it, do it then.

I your hair color is going to be dyed a darker color just wait about 42 hours. If it is going lighter you need to wait a couple of weeks or else you could end up with a color you didn't mean for. Every hair color company should have a 1-800 number for you to call for their suggestions as to how long you should wait. But I have waited about 24 hours before redying my hair(Darker) and it turned out fine. Make sure you have washed you hair atleast twice or so before recoloring to make sure to get the majority of the dye out.

YES! you have to wait at least 2 weeks before doing anything else to it. You can colour it again if you want to, but the results (the shade you're looking for) might not be the expected, plus you risk totally drying your hair.
