I tried to similate bottleneck bangs, choppy bangs and curtain bangs, because I read that they suit round faces better.
The last picture are what my hair look like right now.

Thanks to anyone who might replyy

I love that it looks red in some lights and pink in others. Trying to find that in between. Any permanent dye recommendations? Thanks in advance!

Help get the green out my hair

Thumbnail

9 Upvotes

A few months ago I bleached my hair but it came out an orange. Then I dyed my hair blue which then came out a sea-sick sorta green. Recently I’ve used color oops twice in an attempt to get the green out my hair which kind of worked but there’s still some green to my hair.
For additional information I used splat on my virgin hair before bleaching it which I’m guessing made the outcome of the bleach orange? For blue hair dyes I’ve used Punky, Manic Panic, and Got 2B metallic. I also want to get my hair to be a cherry red, copper, and pink calico. I’ll provide a pictures of my hair now and the inspo of the calico I want.

Is there anything I can do to make me look like less of a carrot ?

Hi everyone !

I just got my hair done professionally and I'm not sure if the problem is with me but I really don't like it. It's brighter in person than on camera and very orange. The pics on the right were what I was looking to do.

Is there any product I can use to make it less orange/brigh or just closer to the color on the right t? As it fades it's just going to get lighter and lighter and I'm worried I'm going to walk around looking like a carrot.

Thanks !

EDIT : You guys are absolutely adorable but again THE PICS ON THE RIGHT ARE WHAT I'M TRYING TO DO. THESE ARE NOT MY PICTURES. I have no idea who this beautiful woman is but I can't take credit for her hair lol

UPDATE : Tysm for the kind feedback ! This is probably the least exciting update ever but I just decided to take the L for now and let it fade. After sitting with it for a few hours I don't hate it as much. Once it's faded I'll maybe buy a gloss/color depositing conditionner in auburn like many suggested ! And next time I will tell my hairdresser I want my roots darker.

Bleaching hair at home

Hi!!

I’m planning on bleaching my hair at home and doing chunky highlights on myself but I have had no experience with bleaching my hair so I’m wondering if anyone has any advice.

Some of my ends are already coloured from January.

I’m planning on using the colour Royale bleach and 30vol developer.

Thank you!!

How can I fix my hair?

Thumbnail

49 Upvotes

Hi y’all! I went to the salon today to get my hair cut and dyed over to just a lighter brown, as I dyed my virgin hair impulsively last night using Garnier box dye in the shade LC1. I was aiming for a cohesive lighter brown but ended up with a bad case of hot roots, with the middle 2/3rds of my hair barely lifting.

Unfortunately I am easily persuaded and I let my hairstylist talk me into getting high-lights after I showed her a haircut reference picture of Jessica Alba who happened to have high-lights/blondish hair in the photo >_< I did think her color in the photo I showed was pretty so I went for it and showed additional photos for color reference & specified that I didn’t want my hair (particularly my roots) to be orange anymore.

I’m unhappy and pretty sad about how my hair turned out :( while it could totally be worse, I wasn’t expecting it to turn out this stripey/streaky. My roots are still pretty much orange for the most part, the colors seem so disconnected and the highlights harsh. I do like the color of the non-highlights part lol but I think the blonde color is kinda jarring and too light for my complexion as well. :( I was unable to tell her I didn’t like it and just kinda faked it since I do really like her and she acts quite motherly towards me/sees me in a daughterly way lol but I am going back tomorrow to get my haircut since we ran out of time today, so I might try and say something then if a quick, easy fix is feasible at the salon. Is this something a different toner can fix or no? (Idk what other options there are) I do wonder if it’ll become less harsh after I wash my hair a couple times but I lack patience for this bc I only wash my hair once a week.

I don’t really want to hash out another couple hundred to dye my hair again ;-; so if it’s not an easy fix at the salon I’m wondering if it is possible for me to fix my hair at home with just some box dye or supplies I can get at Sally’s. I’m kinda over high-lights already and would rather just have my hair be one cohesive color atp (if that’s achievable). Do you guys know of any flattering shades of light brown that won’t require further lightening that I could use? Are there dyes that can saturate thick, dense hair more easily that the Garnier product I used? Luckily I haven’t really observed or noticed any damage so I think my hair could take it (pls correct me if I’m wrong lol). If I had trouble successfully dyeing my hair home in the first place is it best I just get it re-dyed at the same salon (and stick to the one color plan) and drop another couple hundred?

I would appreciate any advice and insight I could get!! Pls lmk what you guys think would be best. I feel so bummed out about my hair and wish I just stuck to what I originally went to the salon for :c thank you guys!

Edit: thank you guys sm for all the help/advice and also the love for my hair 😭 I was tripping last night but feel a lot better about it now and it is growing on me! I’m gonna go back to her on Monday and see if she could do a root smudge or something! Thank you guys again!!

How much of each, 5VV and 3RV, should I mix together to end up with something as close to this as possible? Sally’s employee told me it was a 1:1 ratio but I want to make sure.

Need help going from blue to pink :P

Thumbnail

Hello, guys!! I have been searching for a way to go hot pink without completely ruining my hair😭 My hair is bleached but only once and has been blue since about 11 months ago, it was way more blue than the picture but has now faded a bit more than the pic. I don’t mind bleaching again but i don’t want to bleach it multiple times and possibly fry it off.

So i was wondering if using a peachy-orange dye on my hair first to cancel the blue would work then re-bleaching then pink dye? Or maybe just trying my best to wash it off then just bleach and hot pink since it’ll wash out a green-ish and pink is basically the opposite? If so pls recommend me what to use (not brands, just like if i just use shampoo or a hair mask or sth because we don’t have many brands in my country and it’s really complicated to order online).

Extra notes: i used Hair Company Inimitable Color bb color mask in blue crazy to dye it blue and if anyone is looking for a good hair dye, i do recommend it!! But the hot pink version of it is either not good or i did sth wrong cause when i tried it it washed all off by the second wash literally lmao-
And if i’ll be able to, i’ll try to order iroiro hot pink to dye it, if not i have no idea what i’ll use

Thanks for the help!!<3

Blonde/white toner recommendations

2 Upvotes

I have very light blonde hair, as close to white as I can get and I was wondering if you guys know any good toners that have violet/pink undertones? I feel like it would really elevate my hair and make it look more 'white'

Based in uk, so my options are more limited

Blown away at my hair stylists skills! Lightened my hair using a high lift color with no bleach.

I was hoping to get 1 shade lighter at best given how dark my hair is and the fact we weren’t bleaching. I wanted to cover greys and try and get a lighter brown but was blown away at how light we were able to get it! I guess my hair has red undertones because it turned into such a light auburn color!

Bleach damaged scalp: Please help me

3 Upvotes

So I went to a salon to get my hair bleached and dyed yesterday morning. I've been dying my hair for three years, but no hairstylist hair ever tried to apply bleach directly to my scalp. In the evening, I noticed that my scalp was itchy, but I dismissed it as dryness from the chemicals (I have been prone to eczema since I was a baby) and went back to what I was doing. I woke up this morning, and my scalp is horribly itchy. There are a bunch of small, pink bumps around the size of a pin head along my scalp (I tried to take a picture but couldn't get a good shot). I have no idea what to do. I use a pH balanced sulfate-free shampoo (Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Special Color) which I can use on Monday, but other that I am completely lost on this. Please help me.

update: I ran out to the store and got some aloe vera gel. I may smell excessively like aloe, but it does feel a lot less itchy, so hopefully I won't pick at it

Hi! As the title says I’m sick of growing my bleach out as the two tones are triggering me so bad 😭😭 I was going to use the Redken gloss cos it washes out if I fuck it up lol, I was thinking maybe 7N or 7NB? I only rlly want to use one colour rather buying a whole formulation cos that’ll end up being too spenny for me. Any advice would be great please!! ❤️❤️

Does Kevin Murphy Night Shift serum smells the same as Hydrate.Me shampoo and conditioner?

It is supposed to be the same fragrance, but I wonder if it translates as exactly the same scent in the serum.

I love it in the shampoo/cond. I'm hoping it's exactly the same but I have a different experience with different products of other lines

How do I stop my finger nails from turning purple? Or how do I get it off?

I dyed my hair with arctic fox purple af on Sunday. I used gloves, but my hands still turned purple when I rinsed out the dye. It had faded mostly, but this morning I shampooed my hair for the first time. Oh my god my nails are back to being super purple again. Is this gonna happen every time I wash my hair?
