Is there a special way to dye ginger hair blonde?

Question

My friend tried 4 times to dye a part of her hair blonde but nothing changed. She even left it in for an hour each time as she didn't notice a difference but still nothings changed?

Answer 1

the easiest way would be to go to a salon, where they will bleach then dye, it will also last longer.

Answer 2

she's need to bleach it

if she's gutsy enough to do it at home, then she can get the peroxide powder and bleach. but if she doesn't know what she's doing, she must NOT do it. she can damage her hair BIG TIME.

I'd get a hairdresser to do it. It might be a little more expensive but at least you know you're not frying your hair or putting S****y supermarket colours in it which don't even work and only put excess cilicon in it...which is another reason why hair dye either doesnt work properly or washes out.

Answer 3

tell ur friend to go to the hairdressers.. Bleach has a few different standard strengths, 10 vol, 20 vol, 30 vol, 40 vol and 60 vol, u can get ones in between or higher, i wouldnt normally advise any higher than 60 on the hair and 60 is very strong

10 Vol - Temporary colours and semi permanent ( cant really lift the hair colour) Loreal casting

20 vol - can lift hair slightly dark permanant shades and blondes that dont lift, only give tone.

30 vol - vibrant permanant colours (just ur average colour and high lift blondes)

40 vol - highlighting kits and full head bleach.

Go to a hairdresser whole sale and ask for 30 vol peroxide and bleaching powder, or russel gerome do a high lighting kit, u could always pull a few lights through for her, bleach stops working after 35 mins ish so if it stops after then, re apply!

Tell ur friend to go to hairdressers for the best results, but it can be done at home even with just a little knowledge on hair. I hope this helps ..

Answer 4

must be c**p hair dye. my friend has ginger hair and she gets blonde highlights. i know thats completly different but its still dye. tell her to go to a hair dressers to get it done.

Answer 5

Your friend is using c**p blonde hair dye.

I suggest you use XXL Live absolute platnum.

You can see it changing colour so you can wash it out whenever you feel it's the right colour.

Hope that helps
