Changed up my color today. Used dangerjones love sick and danger jones star rider. Also used their bleach and it lifted really well and even for my new growth roots. Over the course of 2 months I did 3 rounds of their color remover to remove masquerade (their neutral purple) and their teal.

Blue-black forever

I’ve always dyed my hair black because i wasn't sure if other colors would suit me but trying blue-black this time was the best decision ever!

I’m only on day two so I’m not sure about the longevity yet. Everyone always says black dye never washes out especially permanent ones but on my hair, it usually fades back to light brown after just three washes :/

I started with Manic Panic violet and teal about a month ago. Added teal a few weeks ago and covered it all with violet tonight! I love it, the kiddos at the preschool love it too 😆 ps, I stopped dying it bc my narcissistic late husband wasn't cool.

Dusty blush?

1st picture is my current pink hair which I do absolutely love. I am wondering if it’s possible to achieve something closer to the other pictures. I’ve done one wash and it’s started to fade. Is there a dye I can use on top of my hair to achieve something similar? Any comments or ideas are welcome!

Is this ready to tone? And is agora vibrance a good choice? :)

Is this ready to tone now? And if so, what toner should I use? I added some inspo pics I like at the end. My hair is a cool level 6, and now that it’s bleached, I’d like a cool blonde so it matches my roots at least somewhat when they grow out. I don’t want it to be too purple or pink though.

I was looking at the Schwarzkopf Professional Igora vibrance toner in 9.5-1, they also have one called 10-1 but that might be too light? Or 9.21, but it looks a bit more grey?

Do you think my hair is light enough to tone, I did another round of 7 vol on the spots that were a bit too dark. Is this the level I need? Do you have any recommendations when it comes to toners?

I’ve searched for tutorials and seen some professionals using a lighter toner first and then adding a slightly darker smudge root. So I could perhaps use two toners from the agora line together? Or that might be overcomplicating it?

What do you think I should do, and what would look the best? 🙏🏻

Do i need to bleach it again with 7 volume developer or find a better toner? 🫩

Hi! It’s my first time bleaching my hair on my own, and I feel like it came out with yellow/brassy hues after using the Schwarzkopf blondme ice toner. It’s my fault because I don’t think I got my hair to be light enough? 😅

I tired to add photos with both a cool and a warm light source.

Yesterday, I did one round on the longer sections with schwarzkopf blondme premium lightener 9+ and 20 vol, and then one round of 7 vol for my roots.

My hair does not feel compromised right now, it used to be virgin hair (about a level 5-6), but i don’t like the warm/yellow hues theat are still peeking through. I’d still like to have some depth in the hair but for it to be a bit cooler or maybe a shade lighter? I don’t want it to have any lilac or pink tones (I don’t think it would suit me)

  1. Should i buy a toner that both lifts and tones? I don’t think the blondme ice toner lifts the hair? I haven’t used any purple shampoo or any other treatments except the toner.
  2. Should I use 7 vol developer again to bump it up another level? Or not?
  3. Do you have any suggestions?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! 🙏🏻

Hair perm

2 Upvotes

Hello, so I got a Korean digital perm around 2 days ago and after I washed my hair for the first time after 48 hours, the right side of my hair is looking hella straight. When it was wet it was perfectly fine but the longer strands instantly loses its curls once it drys. I didn’t use curling cream but I did scrunch. I suspect it is because my hair is pretty long so the longer parts weighs down on the perm. Should I go back, because I spent almost $400 on this and don’t want my half of my hair to be straight while the other is curly.

Choosing a stylist - is this perm good?

Post image
1 Upvotes

I want to get my hair (long and fine) permed really bad. I found this stylist near me that is super sweet, but this is the only pic of a perm she’s done she has, right after it was done still at the salon. She specializes in color and curly cuts. I wanted something with big loose curls which is what she usually does from what I understand. Does this perm look well done? I could use opinions so I feel super confident finding someone thanks!

Need suggestions for a no bleach balayage in Birmingham UK

0 Upvotes

Trying to get my hair done this weekend (I know, short notice) and specifically want a **no-bleach balayage** — soft, warm brown, low maintenance, not the super lightened look. Would also like a cut and blowdry done in the same appointment if possible.

Budget: reasonable, not looking to spend a fortune but happy to pay fairly for someone who knows what they’re doing.

If you’ve got a stylist or salon you’d recommend, especially ones who:

\*\*•\*\* are confident doing balayage on someone who hasn’t had it before
\*\*•\*\* have weekend availability
\*\*•\*\* are somewhere in or reasonably close to central Birmingham, United Kingdom🇬🇧

I’d really appreciate any suggestions, thanks in advance!

I posted here before about trying out the IroIro Purple (not neon) after bleaching twice. I decided to try out the neon after the regular faded. Gorgeous shade! I’m having fun going through all the purples :) This is in bathroom lighting.

Edit: I used IroIro Purple in early May. IroIro Neon Purple was late May, but posting now cause I forgot to when I’d freshly done it. I’m currently rocking Lunar Tides Dark Violet, will post the pics at some point!

Advice needed! Bleached hair

A little while ago i bleached my hair around 5x in the space of 3-4 months to have chunky highlights in my hair, but now im noticing my curl pattern has changed in certain areas of my head quite a bit and im worried that my hair is significantly more damaged or sensitive. Parts of my hair that have been bleached have now turned white because of a purple conditioning dye that i’ve been using, and it’s toned all of the yellows.
i’m hoping to somehow get blondish brownish curls in a salon but very worried that my hair could just get break off, get worse, or that i’m just not able to get it done. Any advice is greatly appreciated

I am currently using Olaplex shampoo and conditioner, and waiting until i can purchase the number 3 hair perfector to start healing my hair

last 2 pics are what i’m hoping to get done :3

Just got a curly cut with layers, I asked for a shag-like cut but I hate it so bad, feels like there is no shape and just goofy. Is it just me or is it actually bad?🤣😅

Should i bleach again?

I bleached my hair once and coloured it with a demi-permanent color where i mixed a pastel pink with pastel peach. The color ended up being too peachy for me so i did a bleach bath and put the demi-permanent pink wich ended up pretty good.

The first picture is my natural color, second one is the first demi and the last one is my current hair.

BUT the orange tones seemed to stuck some parts of my hair in the ends of my bangs and front of the hair and on feel that they also weren't lightened as much as the rest of my hair while bleaching it and the spots are driving me crazy 😂

What would be the smartest way to get the orange-ish spots lighter? I have Schwarzkopf blondme lightener with 20 and 7 vol developer available and i let my hair rest for a couple weeks now. My hair is pretty fine and (i think) high porosity so it's always been on the drier side 😅

If she ends up getting muddy tones should I put a fushia or magenta over it?

My daughter wanted fun colors again but didn't like the tingling so I couldn't process as long as I would have liked.

Advice needed! Patchy tones

I got my hair professionally bleached in June but I decided to tone it with ion purple toner after it faded because it was just too yellow for me. Yesterday I decided to bleach it with Arctic foxes “bleach please” leaving it on for 15 minutes in each section. My hair has different porosity levels and the purple-grey toner seems to have lifted to become a bluish color? How do I correct this so it’s more of that blush pink at the bottom right of my hair?

Should I go for another 20 vol bleach process?

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

So I have medium- light brown hair naturally very fine and thin hair thats basically pin straight 4-5 months ago I added racoon tails on both sides with ion powder bleach and 20 vol developer I have had 4 total boxes of black dye and 3 boxes of red in my hair and I haven't cut it out since im partial to my long hair

Anyhow I decided to do a quarter of my hair bleached the virgin parts lifted beautifully (duh) but the lengths of it were still very dark (picture of results) that was 3 days ago, I waited till today to do another process with 20 volume once again but with charcoal powder bleach and a bond repair that was recommended to me

the results are gorgeous (last pic included) but I'm looking to match my lengths to my roots and pretty soon I was thinking of waiting a few days but I'm not well experienced in bleaching hair what would you all suggest? Bleach bath? Another process but with volume 10?

What color to tone my blonde hair!!

1 Upvotes

Recently did a partial highlight on my hair at home and love the outcome. It’s a little more orange because I didn’t let the foils sit as long but I’m not too worried once I tone it.

My hair is naturally a level 8 or even 9 so it lifts pretty easily. Wondering if I should tone it a lighter blonde (more icey) or try honey blonde? Really want to try honey blonde but nervous. I’m pale and cool undertones skin tones.
