Im 15 and ive been mixing my own hair dyes from sallys for 4 years, i have done many shades of brown from very light mocha brown to deep raven blacks,and like many of us here, one day i got the blonde urge after seeing lady gaga live. the next morning i got the bus down to sallys and bought a pot of white bleach powder, a bottle of 30vol peroxide, bottle of 20vol peroxide and a tube of blue toner créme.
i then mixed equal parts of the 30vol and bleach powder and applied for 45 minutes, my hair was now orangey with yellow patches, i then bleached again the next day and it was a light yellow. then i mixed equal parts toner crémeand 20vol bleach and left this on for 30minutes and my hair was a brilliant white :)
it was a bit dry but i justt slept with bed head dumb blonde and olive oil in my hair over night and my hair was back to normal :D

skyearienne is pretty okay with consistently embarassing myself.
How I did it: First I bleached my hair and conditioned it heavily. About a week later, I bleached it again, but used a cooler blonde rather than the platinum I wanted (to remove some of the bright orange). After 2 more weeks, I bleached it again and it was finally evened out. No orange or bronze color in my hair. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I had a dark brown dye in my hair; I am naturally a dark blonde/light brown. I waited for the brown to fade a bit, then used powder bleach with 30 vol developer. This brought it up to an orangey shade; I then used Clairol Professional Extra Blondes 12AA color over top of that. After a washing with Shimmer Lights shampoo and conditioner, I have a nice platinum shade (though I want to go whiter). As a weekly toner I … Read how I did it…

How I did it: I know a far amount about hair, I'm attending cosmetology school this fall. I researched and got a ton of helpful information and watched tutorials, so I finally went to Sally's and got the stuff to do it. I stripped the black out and then tonight I decided to bleach it because the strand test came out a nice baby blonde color...BAD BAD idea. I didn't even finish applying the bleach because it started turning my hair a green/gold color on… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Dont have a pic of it all white cause I broke my camera, but this default pic is when I did it in stages to test out products and make sure I didn't lose length.The first time I attempted to get it from a black box dye #1 to platinum blonde within a week. I learned box dye is much harder to get out then salon dyes because of their metalic qualities. On the first day I bleached my hair 3 times. Waited a week and then went to the salon… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I started off with a dream - Platinum blonde hair. I got to work with the peroxide and lemon juice in a spray bottle, washing out the black dye in my hair until it was a lovely brown colour. One day on a high I bought bleach and dye. It came out orange. I skipped school the next day and spent 4 hours in a hairdresser. My hair FRIED. My scalp burst out with huge blisters. Some of my hair fell out. And it was still orange. Luckily my hairdr… Read how I did it…

i had a brown colour hair and i decided to die my hair black and i get fed up with my hair colour really easily, so i decided too try going bleach blonde as in white this is how i done it,
first of all i when to my friends house and i got her to bleech all my hair and it when orange with white roots from my natural roots before then i out a box die on there straight after which made it light brown so at least i was away from the black,
i then when to the hair dressers and i got them to put blonde highlights in it to make it a little lighter,
every few weeks i would go back and have more and more highlights put into it,
then i got fed up of paying soo much money for highlights all the time soo i decided to have another go at bleeching,
this worked and the result it really good its bleach blonde (white) the way that i wanted it but the only problem is it isnt in good condition, soo my next task is too find a good conditionor to make my hair better :D
I tried acid for the second time. It was a 20 hour trip. During this time, I viewed myself as a better more optimistic person. I was wanting to express the godly feeling by resembling Apollo the Sun God.
I dyed my hair blonde, but I managed to make it look somewhat natural. Being the artistic type that I am I did a damn good job. It was cool for a month, but it didn’t suit me.
I dyed my hair back to its natural color and I will have blonde moments again no doubt, but I will never have blonde hair again.
I’m a red head. Originally a strawberry blonde, but I’m the type of person who always likes to change their physical appearance. I’m about to turn 18 and I’ve never been blonde. When I was a brunette, it was too dark. (I’m pale.) So I’m thinking about platinum blonde. It’d be entirely different from what I have now (dark red). I may wait a while before trying it though.
iwillbeblonde is patiently waiting for teh next bleaching! ^_^
i’ve dyed my hair black for quite awhile.. so it’s like, box over box over box… lol. so imagine trying to get that out!! after my first bleach i looked like a sunset! yellow roots, red, then dark red. lol. wasn’t so bad. then i bleached it again, now my roots are white, then strawberry blond then red. ( i know I’m not supposed to bleach my roots first)
Anyways, this is my first time doing this! so i’m super excited :)
Before i shampoo, i put the purplr shampoo on my dry hair and let it sit! i find it really helps get some of the yellow out :)
I also use a really good conditioner from bed head called “dumb blond” and i find it works really well.
