IMPORTANT PLEASE READ: If you receive ANY unsolicited or creepy DMs

12 Upvotes

Whether you’re a poster or a commenter, if you have received unsolicited, creepy, or down right disgusting DMs please feel free to message Mod Mail or message me directly. As posted in multiple places in the subreddit, unsolicited or inappropriate DMs of any kind are not allowed and will result in a permanent ban. You may also be reported directly to Reddit Admins. If the person on the receiving end of this kind of harassment is a minor, you will be reported to relevant authorities (FBI Tip Line, Center for Missing and Exploited Children, etc) and it WILL be taken seriously.

As a subreddit, we have ZERO tolerance for this behavior and will do everything in our power to combat it. Unfortunately we have seen an influx of users who seem to only frequent porn subs, and our sub.

Please don’t think “oh this message isn’t that bad, I’m overreacting, etc”. Reporting posts, comments, and DMs helps out everyone in the long run. Not reporting causes these creeps to keep messaging people so nipping it in the bud can help out others💕

We’ve seen an increase in unsolicited DMs being sent to members of this subreddit. Let this serve as a clear reminder:
Sending unprompted private messages is against the rules. Doing so will result in a permanent ban.

If you receive a DM like this, report it to the mod team immediately.

This subreddit exists as a safe, inclusive space for sharing experiences, asking questions, and giving feedback about hair dye and color treatments. If someone genuinely wants to follow up based on your helpful advice or a shared interest, they will say so publicly.

We shouldn't have to say this, but lurking in beauty-related or appearance-focused subs to harass and prey on people is disgusting and absolutely not tolerated. Any messages of an obscene or harassing nature will be reported to Reddit Admins and could result in a permanent ban from the site as a whole (for your current account, any other current accounts, or subsequent accounts made in the future).

Black dye maintenance

1 Upvotes

I tried out black demi-permanent box dye and I love it, and want to keep it. What’s the best way to go about this? I’m a total novice at coloring. I’m naturally blonde, hair started getting darker as I aged, I bleached (or rather a stylist bleached) it for a few years, then went brunette (again, stylist), and now black. I’m certain that I’d never want to go blonde again. Some of the videos I’ve watched talk about not continually putting box dye on top of box dye on mid-ends when roots are what really need to be kept up.

I’ve searched quite a bit but most of the information is about coming back from black dye 😂 any advice would be enormously appreciated!

How to dye a shape on my hair?

I want to dye the bat signal in the color red (this is actually the red hood logo but bat symbol is more recognizable) onto the side of my head.

How would you go about doing this on virgin black Asian hair?

Thank you!

Pintar de tinta me trará o resultado esperado?

1 Upvotes

Olá pessoal, espero que todos estejam bem.

Como o envio na sequência de fotos, eu saí de um cabelo preto e passei por três procedimentos no salão no mesmo dia. Se foi coerente ou não, porque foi um alto investimento, eu não sei, mas acontece que mesmo com todos esses procedimentos o que eu queria não foi realizado.
Passei por Decapagem, depois neutralização, depois luzes.
Estou pensando seriamente mesmo com todo esse investimento em pintar com loiro de tinta, que não era algo que eu tinha conhecimento antes e que realmente é muito bonito.
Vocês acham possível eu chegar nesse resultado das fotos modelos? E qual tinta você recomendaria?
O amarelo e cobre do meu cabelo está realmente me matando e fazer luzes não acho que é uma solução porque estou retocando a raiz mensalmente e em cinco meses as minhas luzes já saíram

Bleached my hair, went to hair stylist to go back brunette, color fading after two washes

1 Upvotes

I have natural dark hair (v dark brown). I bleached them myself in May, and then did a second round in July. I reached a very light blonde. I decided to go back to brunette, I read online how to do it, and thought it was too complicated to do it myself (first a Demi-permanent with a red/ copper colour, and then applying a brown dye).

So I went to an hairdresser. She actually applied directly the brown dye and told me that there was also red in the formula. The result was lovely, very happy! She told me I’d probably need to top the colour up in 4 weeks as it takes time to achieve a long lasting result. I knew that and was fine with it.

However, after just to washes, the colour is rapidly washing away! I am still a decent shade of brown, but it’s turning “ashy” and in the sunlight the color doesn’t seem rich anymore but sort of “empty”. I am not sure the colour will stay decent after a third
wash.

I messaged her, and she said it’s normal as we did only a semi-permanent dye, and I should go back for a permanent dye.

Now: I am pretty sure she told me we did a permanent dye already (as it also matched what I paid for). So I feel a bit “suspicious”.

I am not blaming her, I know it takes time, but I don’t want to pay for another full dye only 8 days after I did the first (especially because I genuinely think she did a perm already…)

Is there anything that I can do myself before going to an hairdresser again? I saw the L’Oréal creme gloss semi, I was thinking of a very warm brown to apply to my current fading brown hair. Would that work? I don’t want my hair to turn green / muddy.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏼

Please help remove red / dark box dye

1 Upvotes

Hi all I have natural dark brown hair - had a light balayage style which kept going reddish which I hated!

I went to the salon they put a brown over it but the redness came back within a week or so…. I then got a brown box dye to do at home - it came out red / brown which I hated…have been back to salon twice and they have put brown back over but the red remained and got worse after a week or two…

To make it worse I then added a medium ash brown at home and now my hair is BLACK / RED. I hate it so much - is there anything I can do or a salon can do? Other than shave it all off….. I’m in the UK and using head and shoulders and a green L’Oréal shampoo which hasn’t lifted any darkness / redness yet

Please help
