Hi,
I'm new to this site, I'm a hairdresser who has just moved location and currently on maternity leave.
My problem is I've been bleach blonde for the past 2 years (using platinium +40vol) my hair is level 5/6 very stubborn to lift, work used to do my roots and my hair was actually healthy. When I got pregnant my hair started going dry and odd breakage and when I went to have my roots done at a local salon when I moved across the country the woman put the bleach on and only used 20vol but she over lapped the colour and my scalp was burning and when I got home noticed my hair breaking off slightly on my parting and crown. I was absolutely devastated to say the least, she's somehow managed to completely ruin my fringe area and top layer (so damaged!)
Anyway this was 7 weeks ago and my roots are huge. I ideally want to go closer to my natural base but more warm and only use semis but in the past when I have tried to go darker from this colour the colour literally washes out after 2 washes and goes wishy washy until the bleach grows out. I know my hair is porous. (This has happened more than once when trying to go darker , literally nothing stops it going wishy washy and fading)
My plan is to pre pig with dia light 6.34 and then put 5.35 or 5.3 dia richesse over the top and put olaplex in my mixtures (already done stand alone treatments) but I've never used olaplex on a client only myself as a treatment, I was just wondering if anybody has experience of going from bleached hair to darker with olaplex and if it helped with the trouble of the colour fading? I'm at such a loss and devastated!
