    Dying to be blonde
    I have processed my hair about 10 times in the last 2 days, I'm in the process of going from almost black hair to blonde, I have some horrible red in it now and I'm like a dark honey blonde, for some reason hair dye isn't changing it after the bleaching, is there any box blonde I can buy that may change it now?

    If you processed your hair l0 times in the last 2 days you are probably on your way to a damaged scalp. I suggest stop now while you still have hair.

    Sweetie, if you bleach and color your hair excessively, you will damage your hair. And tickle is correct, your hair could fall out. If you want to go from dark to blonde, you will need to bleach your to a yellow stage and then apply a toner. This is called a double process, bleaching and toning. This process should only be attempted by a professional. At salons, stylists are able to do a double process in just a couple of hours. Your hair is probably in bad condition from bleaching it. Please do not bleach or color your hair for now. I recommend that you do a deep conditioning treatment at least twice a week until your hair is in a healthy state then go to salon and have them do a corrective color.

    I dye my hair blonde. Naturally it's brown. Every time I tried out of a box it just turns it an orangeish color. An ugly one 2. I have 2 get it professionally done monthly. You might have 2 also. It's way worth it though.

    I have never had my hair professionally coloured, I use LOreal blond and it always works fine for me but I don't overwork it, I condition my hair on a regular basis and use hot oil treatments every so often. If you want to colour hair that much you have to take care of it.

    The thing is, you have to pay complete attention to the colour you are buying. I can't use any colour that is ash blond because it turns me purple, so I steer away from that shade.

    You may wish to pay attention a little more to get the colour you want. If you do it right it is way easy to do it at home and less hassle.
