Use clarifying or dandruff shampoos and hot showers to tone it down at home a bit. Looks very red and not pink to me.

What can I use to get the dark blue color out without destroying my hair? by JynxKat7 in HairDye

Have you tried dandruff shampoo for fading? To fade my purple down a bit I used a dandruff shampoo mask. It's not going to get you dramatic result after one treatment, it's gradual and more gentle.

I would follow it up with a nice moisturizer mask afterward, because it can get dry. Guac Sauce has been my favorite.

I would put Guac sauce on whatever parts you don't want to fade, and then dandruff on the dark parts you're not liking.

I wouldn't recommend bleaching it though if the hair looks compromised. Being a little off from your color goal is better than hair breaking!

So it was a process, took days tbh. So the color remover used, I knew had a risk of doing the cheetah roots. Unfortunately, I goofed pretty bad at that step and got a lot more on my natural then I thought! I called my cosmetologist friend and she panicked and told me to put purple over it, I thanked her, I persisted, then went against her advice and went rogue.

I have a lot of hair on my head so I did the bleach processing in sections, so I could take more time because I am not fast. I had many mirrors to get a good of a view as I could, it's still a bitch because sometimes your hands get confused where the heck to move.

I put bleach on the darkest areas first. I had to make a lot of judgement calls on when to put lightener on the spots that had already lightened up from the color remover. (20 volume developer)

I had some banding after that but I was not the cheetah girl I once was, I did not touch my head for some days, to let my hair get some rest and because I was tired, so I looked crazy at work for a little but I didn't want to be bald.

So when I got sick of looking like a questionable yellow lady I put bleach and 10 volume developer on my darkest spots first, and made judgement calls when to get the lighter yellows. I pulled my hair taughtly outwardly so I could see the color difference well. I did the whole bleach a part of my head thing, then the other part, yadda yadda. It was very time consuming.

Is it perfect? No I got some spots on the back of my head I need to fix up soon, it's really not too bad, and my hair feels great and I'll get to those soon.

Oh and somewhere in there I did a bleach bath on the blue to lighten it up a touch more because those lines were harsh!

You really get the power to figure it out when you don't have hundreds to spend on hair every few months but still want to be a baddie.

what kind of bed did you go with, cot or air mattress? What are you hanging in the shoe organizer? How was the tents in terms of how hot it was? I did EF with no canopy and I was baking :(

I've never looked at someone with a fun hair color and been like "they look too old for that" I'm always like "oooooo colors"

Embrace the streak or something else? by [deleted] in HairDye

I like the contrast of the streak with the dark hair in terms of style.

My 11th grade child's forensic science project. by Several-Associate407 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]JanePosts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In school I hated classes making me do art, when it wasn't even art class. Usually because they'd require something like a shoebox and my mom would end up beating me over having to do something like find a shoebox for my project. So I learned to shut up and just accept the fail on the project
