( Read more... )
So for about 2 years I kept getting blonde hilites in my medium brown hair. After a long time of doing this my hair was almost blonde, and I decided in june that I wanted to go all blonde, but with dark brown underneath to create a contrast. The hair dresser had to bleach my whole head, particularly my roots. At the top it was very brassy and I wanted it blonder so I asked for more highlites. After some getting used to, I loved it. So about 5 weeks later my roots were coming in. The didn't look too bad but I went in to get my roots done.
She did the roots and I also asked her to do some more hilites. I asked her how she would match the colour exactly, cuz i wanted it to blend well, and she said for me not to worry becuase she would use the same bleach as last time or w/e. Well, I didn't really notice it at first, but now, about 2 weeks later I'm suddenly realizing where she did my roots the colour is darker than the rest of my hair. So since it's still fairly fresh, it looks like i have dirty blonde roots growing in instead of all the same colour (my real roots look very dark brown when they start coming in). Thank god I got hilites with the touch up or it would be very noticable.
SO, what should I do!?! I will probli get my roots done again in mid sept.... I'm not panicking yet, but if the next touch up creates another colour, I'm gonna go crazy. It will look like a blonde rainbow.
I don't understand how the whole blonde root touch ups really work. I've gone to this hair dresser for years and she's always done a great job. But now i'm scared!! I know this is so long i'm sorry but i don't know what to do now!!
Naw, dude. I get what you're saying, and yeah, tha's kinda no bueno. I'm in deep thought now ;)
If you want to keep it up jus' aight until you go back, you can always try to hilight it yrself... Hmm, I should ask my mom about this; I can tomorrow, if you want. She probably just didn't leave the bleach in quite long enough last time, though. I bet if you mention it to her the next time you go in, she can make it lighter. :-/ hair scares me, tha's why I just stick with easy stuff. I'm dying my hair tonight, though! Woo. I wanted to go to a lighter warm brown color, but I'm just dying it black now, because it's easier to mess with and I have dry hair so it won't dry it out with bleaching... Good luck w/yr hair though <3, and I'll ask my mom about it if you want me to!
I dunno... when she does the hilights... I think it should all blend together eventually... PSH, i bet it looks pretty anyways, usually when something like that happens, you notice it more than other people becuase you look at yrself more than anyone. I know i always notice my roots way before other people do... but as long as you tell her your concerns, i bet she can help you! :)
