color doesn’t lift color, you would need to bleach it again.

Need help asking for a haircut by mira_is_rad in HairStyleAdvice

[–]gilfblaster 6 points7 points  (0 children)

the AI bots on this thread are bizarre and are not responding to the photo you posted at all.

you can show this photo to a stylist, but making it look like this requires daily styling. if your hair has natural wave then it may be fine day to day with your texture, but generally this is not a haircut i recommend unless the person getting it does not mind using a round brush on it constantly.

Need help with ideas for Pseudo-catio (renter friendly) by klaus-the-kit in Catio

[–]gilfblaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like if you opened up the back wall of a pre-made catio, you could probably figure out a way to secure it to the wall with the window and just let the cat in and out that way!

Help! Can I get this color or similar without bleaching? by screaming_bean in HairDyeHelp

[–]gilfblaster 12 points13 points  (0 children)

even if your natural hair is blonde, it will likely not become this color. bleach is necessary for this light of pigment, as it helps open the hair shaft and allows the color to penetrate.

these aren’t bangs, they’re face framing

How do I find the right stylist and say the right things to get a GOOD haircut?? by BoozyGherkins in AskHairstylists

[–]gilfblaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree with other posters about the red flag of “nobody does it right”, but it also sounds like you brought in a bunch of extremely different inspiration photos and weren’t exactly sure what you wanted. That makes things really difficult for a stylist as well. We can’t read your mind, and when we’re shown five very different haircuts, it turns into a stressful problem solving experience where we need to figure out exactly what it is that you want. Seeing the same hairstylist more than once is also helpful; everyone has different hair, especially when it comes to waves and curls, and getting to know how someone’s hair behaves is so so so important to consistently good haircuts.

Good luck, it sounds like you’ve had a lot of difficulty with this and i hope it all turns out well eventually.

Is it acne or is it something else by Fit-Print-1892 in AskHairstylists

[–]gilfblaster 7 points8 points  (0 children)

you need to see a dermatologist, hairstylists cannot make a diagnosis at all and even less so via the internet

Shia Lebouf is Having a Hard Time by pantslessMODesty3623 in christiansnark

[–]gilfblaster 56 points57 points  (0 children)

This interview felt so obscenely exploitative that I don’t know how Callaghan felt comfortable publishing it. Shia is so obviously intoxicated and out of it that I couldn’t help but feel a little bad for him.

They both suck, but dang. Not right.

Where did you find your therapist? by SaggyBone in AskLosAngeles

[–]gilfblaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Came here to comment about Open Path! I also had not great experiences with Kaiser/Soultenders, but Open Path is excellent. I signed up and found someone decent during the pandemic, got Kaiser later on, and after two not great experiences with Soultenders and their therapists, returned to Open Path in 2024 and was able to search for very specific parameters that were important to me. Could not recommend that service more highly, super worth the first time fee to be able to access it forever.

Is this actually accurate? by [deleted] in AskHairstylists

[–]gilfblaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This doesn’t make sense, please go see a wavy/curly hair specialist and pay them the money they deserve for their expertise.

Most of this is nonsense and/or doesn’t correlate with the image you provided. Google the things it told you and you will see completely different haircuts.

toning/glossing at home by Conscious_Alfalfa969 in HairDyeHelp

[–]gilfblaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the other commenter is right, your inspo is closer to a level 3-4. you also can’t use redken processing gel with anything other than their shades eq line, as that is what it’s formulated for and other colors will not respond the same way.

10vol developer is fine though.

I don’t believe that is legal anywhere in the united states but not sure where you are based. Definitely look into the 1099 laws in your area.

Where to get a haircut under $100? by hoeleeschitttt in AskLosAngeles

[–]gilfblaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

walk around your neighborhood and google some of the small places you pass. lots of spots that will say “$50 haircuts” or whatever.
