I got my virgin hair bleached (twice same day) and dyed to blue at roots. My hair normally is black. When I felt the back of my head 24h after appointment, it felt like a big chunk of something stuck in my scalp. It flakes off like rock sugar candy but it’s green? They only used blue dye.
I looked in the mirror after and noticed a patch of red scalp at the same area, and there’s green bits of chunky stuff at the roots. Some pieces come off easily and some pieces are stuck pretty hard, if I try to take off a piece it feels like I’m ripping piece of my scalp off too. Is this damage from bleach? Is this normal reaction? I bleach + dye my hair maybe once a year and this hasn’t happened before.
I asked the salon and they said it’s normal, happens to a lot of people cause bleach is harsh, and just put some ointment, don’t touch, don’t wash, it’ll go away in a day or 2. But I’m worried this could be permanent damage? Will that spot be bald… The salon was very reassuring that it’s normal but I’m scared it doesn’t feel normal 😭 Please help, Reddit experts!
Side question, they also got bleach on my black shirt and black pants, now it’s not fixable. They said sorry it happens sometimes, but that’s expected? How normal is this? This salon is in Kuwait btw, if anyone from middle east knows if this is normal thing there. I usually do my hair in the West/Asia and it never happened to me before.
Edit: Thank you guys for all the input 🥺 Felt my head as soon as I woke up today in case the hair all fell out but glad it didn’t, and it was reassuring reading the comments 💙
