So ive been trying to get my hair from a dark/medium brown to blonde - but currently ive only managed to get it a very light orange with very very blonde parts but mostly at my roots..
i started on saturday when i used jerome russel bblonde high lift powder bleach, so i used this with 30 vol peroxide and left it on for about an hour which did lift but my hair was blonde on the top of my head at the roots and a darkish orange mainly, so i used a jerome russell blonde toner in platinum blonde but i dont really think it made any change in my hair but make it maybe that bit lighter? and i then put a blonde hair dye on i used john freida 9n light natural blonde which just evened out the ginger really and made the roots not as harsh as they was after the bleach..
following day after doing some googling and watching youtube videos, one person had said to bleach the hair again as something about the orange in your hair is the just one of the stages and it would of needed the bleach to be on longer..? so i did this and left the bleach on for another hour using same as i did yesterday, again hair was still orange but that lighter and i felt like i could see a bit more blonde on the underneath of my hair but still orange hair.. then i used the scott cornwall iced platinum toner which i thought made the orange overall lighter but didnt really do much other than that, so i applied ANOTHER toner being schwarzkopf xxl live toner in M02 champagne blonde but i didnt see any difference whats so ever using this one and i again finished this off by applying a hair dye again which was another very light blonde..
I have actually done this before and actually suceeded with it but it was about a year ago and i just dont know as to where ive gone wrong this time eek.. last time i did use the wella color charm toner in t18 and it worked amazing! i dont know if its the toners ive used because on the ones i was using which i bought locally they did actually say wash out or non permanent i dont know if this is the same with ALL toners but i know it did atleast say this on two of the toners i used.. but anyway if anyone could help or know what im best using/trying or just doing next please let me know
i was thinking of trying a pearl blonde loreal hair dye on it? as i thought it might go over the orange as its so light but im just not sure?
i dont actually want platinum blonde i want a natural blonde more like sasha pieterse
here is the colour i have got my hair to anyhoo!
colour i want:
