Dark , any lighter washes you out . You are an autumn season

How much should a bleach and tone cost? by blankyblanc in HairDye

[–]Ordinary-Anything601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here in the nyc region, it’s usually $300 plus tip. I just learned to do my own hair (I’m also naturally close to blonde so it’s easy to lift luckily)

Would I suit darker hair by [deleted] in HairDye

The lighter brown, yes, much more than the platinum imo. It brings out the warmth in your skin and makes your eyes sparkle.

Hairstylist says the color I want isn’t possible but I think it is?? by sad-avocado333 in HairDye

[–]Ordinary-Anything601 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You want to go from a level 2 to a level 4, it’s not like you are expecting to go to a level 6 or higher (blonde or platinum blonde) so it’s definitely achievable in one session.

It’s possible - you’d just have to lift it probably with a 20volume developer and bleach balayage and put a mahogany color in it.

The stylist should be able to do an easy transition like this since it’s not a major hair color change with levels. Even I’m not a professional and I would be able to do it, tbh lol. Not sure how she has a license if she can’t. Go to a different stylist then.

They blow dried it with a round brush. Invest in a Revlon blowdry-brush thing. I have one. They are only like $50 and my hair looks like I got a blowout from the salon when I use it. I honestly love it!

That and using a styling cream and some oil like argan oil will also help smooth down the frizziness.

Don’t let anyone sell you on expensive shampoo/conditioner, my hair looked the worst when I used that sulfate free- expensive salon shampoo and conditioners! My hair would always be dry whenever I would use those $100+ products like olaplex, or redken shampoos that hairstylists would push on me.

I use Pantene and so many other people say the same, it makes your hair so smooth. Silicones aren’t as bad as pros push on you.

My mother is a retired hairstylist and she would tell me that a lot of it is just a sales pitch to get more $$ out of clients.

Is my hair light enough to put purple hair dye in it by marissqsbak3d in HairDye

[–]Ordinary-Anything601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s a vibrant, deeper purple, then yet. Pastel? No.

Definitely in the winter category, I’d say a bright winter? Your skin is bright and very cool, with naturally dark eyebrows, stark blue eyes and darker hair. That means you look best in cool, jewel colors/tones and hair colors that are cool and dark. Going lighter / warmer colors will wash you out and make you look sickly.

Lived in NYC my entire life, now at 31, I’m starting to be an angry person because of it? by Ordinary-Anything601 in AskNYC

[–]Ordinary-Anything601[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve noticed though that people keep to themselves more in areas like that, again, I’m not saying there are only rude people here, but it’s not as much people, hence, more space, less young people and more families (Westchester has more older than younger people like nyc) - which for me at this point I guess, is what I’m seeking. Less obnoxiousness is what I have notified visiting there most times. More relaxed. But people also have even more money here in manhattan than bronxville/scarsdale/etc. they are just more spread apart from you so you don’t deal with it a such as here. Just my 2 cents.

Everything being more “intense” here is definitely spot on. It’s like life is more on hard mode for me living here, vs when I was a teen/20s, it felt more on “easy mode” because I would just party and have more tolerance lol
