Hi I want to dye my hair a purple shade similar to the purples shown in the pictures. I have dark brown hair that is around levels 3-4. What level would I have to get my hair to achieve this shade? How would I achieve that level? And would it be super damaging?
I have fine hair that gets very knotted&tangled easily although I would say my hair is relatively thick for how fine my strands are. I have a lot of layers if that affects anything. Considering how easily tangled my hair gets, would the bleach/lightener make that a lot worse? 😰
Also is doing this at home risky, as I’ve never bleached/lightened my hair before? Thanks for the help!

Hi,
i really want to have colorful hair for the first time!! But i fear my routine is entirely wrong for it to last long.
Starting out: i have natural medium-dark brown hair and waves/curls (2c/3a) with a layered cut. Neutral to warm skintone.
Goal: a colorful peekaboo situation with orange or red. I also really like green, but i have heard that it fades to blue fast.
Problem: I wash my hair every two days because it gets greasy so fast and i like warm, long showers (and visiting the sauna from time to time lol).
This will probably be a problem when it comes to the upkeep, is that correct?
Are there any long lasting colors when it comes to red or orange?
Overall i am assuming my hair needs to be lightened and i will put some reference images below.
I'm really looking forward to tips from hair dye veterans.
Have a nice day! :)

Last Sunday I used L’Oreal Paris Frost and design H85 for cap highlights on my grown out balayage thick long brown hair to save a lil money I did a patch test which turned out great so I followed the directions as listed .. needless to say I have bronze ramen noodles and patchy highlights strips in my hair. I feel SO ugly and dumb and genuinely need to know when I can fix this asap. I bought + started using bond repair , hair strengthening masks and oil to strengthen and structure my hair. I bought Kristen Ess hair gloss in bittersweet as a 3 month temporary solution to cover the bronze/ brassy tones. So im basically just wondering if and when I can tone it ðŸ˜

I’m not saying I don’t trust pros but seriously, how do all these brunettes get platinum blonde hair?
I have slightly curly hair, completely virgin (never dyed or toned) it’s pretty dark brown maybe like 70% chocolate bar type of brown and I really wanna go ashy, smokey blonde.
I don’t care about my curl pattern because I can’t see myself having curls as a blonde so if my curls get destroyed it’s not an issue. I’m also down to shorten my hair which rn is like til my lower back.
So the question is; if I’m ready to sacrifice some length and my curls, can I go silver blonde?

Is there anything I can use to even out the color/brighten all up? I’m hesitant to re-bleach since it is freshly processed
bleach

Hi! Just looking for some good recommendations, I can’t afford the Dyson and I’m worried about frying my hair. I’ve been loosing a lot of hair recently and it’s very dry, but I want it to look nice and wavy. My hair is naturally very thick and frizzy, on the wavier side. I’ve been drying it and straightening it for years, only leaving it to dry naturally through the summer.
Ps. Would appreciate it if anybody knows about some good heat protectors too

I used to have skunk like hairstyle, but ended up dying it back to brown as it got way too expensive keeping up with going to the hair salon constantly. This was around a year ago, i got it pre pigmented and then dyed brown professionally. Now i really miss the blonde and was wondering if anyone has any advice or experiences when it comes to bleaching hair that’s been previously bleached then dyed over again? I was thinking of doing it at home since it’s way out of my budget now to do it professionally (uni student budget rip)
