Please please please help me
I had black hair for about 3 years, then I had it bleached to a gold colour. But stupidly I dyed it back to a blue black and I hate it!! I really really want platinum all over hair, but I know its going to be loads at the hairdressers and I can really afford it right now. I heard of home bleaching kits and wondered if it might be possible to do it that way? I also heard of colour removers like ColorZap Haircolor Remover. Which one should I use and how do I go about getting my hair the platinum shade that I want so much. Can you give me a step by step please
Thank you

Going from black to platinum blonde is a very tricky process. In order to go from black to platinum blonde, you must do a double process (bleaching and toning) to achieve results. You will need to bleach your hair to a pale yellow stage and apply a toner. To avoid damaging your hair, you should consider having it done professionally.

I would absolutely NOT try that at home. Consider your options: A) Screw up your hair (it will turn orange) so badly that you are embarrassed to be seen, and then have to end up paying someone to fix it immediately, or 2) Making due with your current hair for a few weeks until you DO have the money to get it done right.
Have you considered maybe seeing if you could go to a beauty school to get it done? They need people to practice on, and they are usually pretty good by the time they get to intense color like that. Plus, I'm sure an instructor would be monitoring them. That may fit your budget a little better.
