    Bleached Hair To Darker Blonde?
    Hey there, I have recently bleached my hair platinmum blonde. It is fabulous but does make me look quite pale in my face. Therefore I need to take my hair down a couple of shades. I have been looking at clairol perefect 10, a neutral medium shade which after some research seems to be the right thing to do. However I would appreciate any advice that you may have in case I have missed something out! Id rather not end up with a green or something horrible as that! :p

    Thanks

    I would never use Clairol Perfect 10 on bleached hair. The peroxide concentration in that product is too strong. You'll just end up damaging your hair. You should use is a demi-permanent like Clairol Natural Instincts, L'Oreal Castings Color Spa, or Shades EQ. You want to baby bleached hair, not beat on it.

    Be careful of "ash" shades. Darkening with ash often leads to the greenish cast that people hate. On the other hand, beware of "golden" shades also.

    [i would agree with the last post. But if I were you I would pop into a solon and get a semi permanent to soften the colour.
    Another thing you can do if its more to do with the tone of your hair is to get a colour conditioner that way if it goes to warm or too ash you can shampoo it away.
    But be careful doing your own colour as it can go wrong very easyily

    Please don't post on top of someone else's thread. Start your own thread or no one will see it.

    It wasn't bleached enough. If you used a single-process haircoloring, you need to switch to double-process (bleaching and toning).
