Hey, everybody, I have been asking last year around here for advice on how to get a lower maintenance blonde that is also lighter and cooler than my previously hi lift hair. After growing my roots out for a whole year (!), I went to a suuper pro and got an amazing result - She did a full...

Hi everyone, quick question - I am currently growing my roots out to go from hi lift blonde to foil highlights.it's been over 3 months and I plan on growing them at least 1-2 more. I realised I don't really like having a lot of dark root. So how often do you normally do a root touch up on full...

Did not know that! thank you , will have to look into it!

Wow, makes perfect sense! Didn't even think about that! Will defo consider this version next time, but with a more outgrown root maybe? Like always, hair saving advice, Ronray! Much appreciated! 😇

Wow..not really, tbh! Doesn't it *somewhat* damage hair?

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone can enlighten me on the following: If I am currently an all over, solid hi lift blonde, could I go back to having highlights only (had them years back) next time I will be doing the root touch up? Meaning to do the touch up as highlights only and maybe wait...

Thank you, Ronray! Hair is normal/coarse and always has had the tendency to get super puffy with washing. Scalp rather oily, ends dry.

Hi all, my hair is hi lift blonde plus toned and I am searching for a good shampoo, suitable for color protection, BUT not leaving the hair too volumised/puffy. I always seem to have this issue, that my hair gets super soft and puffy after washing, esp. with certain shampoos. Or maybe I am doing...

Anyone? :confused: I'm really struggling to determine my shade, to know what can be done next!

Ok, I keep searching for the perfect shade of blonde. I have found a new, very experienced hairdresser, who works with Wella. She did my roots with koleston and the ends with colourtouch, she did some combos that I am unsure of (though she used something purple based for the toner, i think the...

Hi guys, I am posting again since I have booked a consultation with another stylist in town, with great work and refferels. I ve been a hi lift blonde for 4 years, yet she clearly sugested that the only way to get rid of the dull warm tones would be bleaching, prob. with a low/20 vol developer...

Thank you both PitaBread and Ronray for your kind and wise words..not an easy decision indeed, I def agree that trust is a big one in this relationship, I truly really want to find a person I can commit to, tired of trial and error on this one..Much appreciated, along with all of our previous...

Ok, so I am calling again my beloved pro's who have always helped and might know better whether it's time for a new stylist or not in my case: as I wrote a while back, I have been a highlift blonde for 4 years, and have recently been to a new stylist, who has about 4 years of practice, who got...

Well, I'm a bit weird like that too, I did that with perfumes I loved on someone, so I might just do that if I ever see a hair I love :D

I did show pictures,too, but was told that those were on a lighter base, i.e. a 10, while I am a 9. Since I only put hi lift on, it is unlikely I will go super light. However, how do I tell the hairdresser to try mixing if she doesn't usually do that? Plus I have no idea what should be...

Yikes...I was afraid of that, AcidPerm...she uses one shade of toner, which is a level 9 ashy violet to cancel out the yellow tones, never a mix of two or more...maybe I am always wrong in explaining what I want, since I aim for a cool, yet not grey/dull look

Hey guys, I know this is very subjective, but which of the two brands would you say has a wider range of choice for blonde hair, in terms of hi lift, toners, gloss etc.? My current hairdresser uses Alfaparf and I cant seem to find a toner shade I like. We have a Redken specialist in town as...

Thank you so much, AcidPerm, it does make sense indeed. I am naturally a level 6/7 (different opinions from different hairdressers) and we usually use either a 9% or a mix of 9 with 12. But what I understand is that highlights would be quite damaging on what I currently have. What I was actually...

Umm sort of lol. I have had one nasty experience w. bleach when I went hi lift 4 years ago., So the ends of my hair still had some dark brown dye on them, so they have been bleached, w. Olaplex. That part of my hair was a MESS, super hard to comb, dry, horrible split ends etc. etc. Had to cut it...

Hi all, I have asked a few years back about this and didnt get a definite answer, so since I am flirting with this idea again, I'll just ask away: From your experience, is it possible and maybe not very damaging to go from an overall high lift blonde to just highlights? I have been a hi lift...
