I am quite dark naturally and have been having blue/black with red highlight in my hair for some time. (You can see a pic of my hair in my profile, although I didn't have any blue/black in then)
I have wanted a white blond slice in my hair for ages! Well since I've been renting my room in a hairdressers there has been a lot of experimentation to say the least! The girls warned me that it could go orange/pink because of all the red I've had in my hair, but I went ahead.....
It actually turned out better than I expected, my roots went really light and the rest was only slightly orangey. As my hair is quite short though, I get it cut and coloured quite regular so thought, I'd get my bright white slice in time, lol.
Last week the owner came in with [SIZE=-1]L'Oreal Platinium, raving about how it would lighten the darkest hair. I asked if she thought it would get rid of my orangey bits, and she said, it should do, and to give it a try, free of charge. So we did, and it has lifted it quite a few shades lighter. My roots are white!!!!:green:!!!! But there are still tinges of orange through my lengths. The girls had not used it before, so didn't want to leave it on for ever, it was on for about 15 mins. My questions is..... If we re-did it, and left it on longer, will it eventually lift it all to white, or am I fighting a losing battle n end up with straw hair?
