How I did it:
My friend is a natural blonde who wanted to go even lighter, so we bought
some bleach and then I got this genius idea to try it on myself.

Hello! I'm an asian with super black coarse hair. Anyway, I sat with the bleach in my hair for an hour or two and then washed it out.

The results wasn't blonde. I was friggin yellow, YELLOW!

The next day I covered my hair with a hood all the way to the hair salon and while inside I said: "I would like to book an appointment..."
The girl at the register told me that they were full for another two weeks. I then removed my hood.
"We got an emergency!!!" she yelled, and suddenly I had an appointment the very same day.

Why not just dye my hair black you might wonder?
I thought if I went through the process of trying to be a blonde, then I would have to do it properly.

So after 7 hours of bleach in my hair and an ashblonde colouring later. I was blonde, and I had to pay a big price for it and I'm not talking about money.

Lessons & tips:

• This goes for all the asians, if you want to go blonde, how about trying out a wig instead.
• If you decide to ignore my words of wisdom anyway, let a professional do it.
• Use hair conditioner it's your best friend.
• If you love your hair don't do it!
• Let the blondes be the blondes.
