Blonde Network

I recently used a bleach to highlight my hair and now (the highlights) looks yellowy. My natural color is light/medium brown. I f I apply a light blonde hair color to my whole head, to give my highlights a lighter/beige look, will it drastically lighten my dark hair? Or would a toning shampoo do the job?

Coloring hair can be done for a temporary effect, or in a more permanent fashion. There are hair colors that wash out after one shampooing, after several shampoos, and those that are supposedly permanent. Coloring hair is very fashionable these days. You can easily see people of all age groups going for hair coloring. People are experimenting with all kinds of colors to look fashionable. Hair coloring has been in use since the ancient times. Ancient Greeks used to color or lighten their hair, which identified with honor and courage. There are many products for coloring hair available in the market. There are permanent as well as temporary colors. A patch test should be conducted before using any coloring product to see if the person is allergic to the color or not.

Shampooing is essential to everyone’s hair care routine, regardless of hair type or texture. You should shampoo as often as necessary to keep your hair looking clean and your scalp comfortable. Those who have oily hair, exercise daily, or live or work in dirty environments may need to shampoo daily, while others need to shampoo less frequently. Twice a week is usually sufficient if your work does not involve any physical activity. It is essential to protect hair from the damaging, drying effects of the sun. If you swim, be sure to promptly shampoo your hair remove chlorine and other chemicals, or salt water, all of which may result in drying.

Hair coloring tips:

1. Wet your hair with bottled spring water before getting in a clorine pool, It will dilute the harsh chemicals.

3. Be careful in the sun. please use hats, scarves or products with sunscreens to help protect against color fade and the drying effects of the sun.

4. Use color enhancing conditioners as color grows out to help blend root areas.

5. Don’t brush hair when wet. Comb with a wide-tooth comb, working tangles out as you move from the ends toward the scalp.

6. Hair colors with blue base may give a greenish cast to yellow or gold hair while those with violet base, gives more natural and better results.

7. If light-reddish blonde tones fade to orange color, you can use a little red-gold accent to give fashionable highlights.

Numerous people take their hairs very seriously. Among football fans, the way football players color, cut, part, and curl their hairs is considered very admirable.

David Beckham, the captain of England football team, has always been changing his hair styles, which is now causing horrible damages to his hair. Beckham’s fans that followed him in terms of hair styling are also faced with the hair loss problem.

Fans of Michael Ballack, the footballer from Germany, have reportedly copied his hair style.

What can stop the Brazilian fans from getting inspired by Ronaldinho’s long curly hairs? Even after getting warned by their hair specialists, quite a big number of Ronaldinho fans attempted to have their hairs like him. Only few of them ended up with healthy hairs.

Even after knowing that they are not looking decent with their soccer stars’ hair styles, millions of football fans continue to have their favorite footballers’ hair styles. They even don’t consider the harm their type of scalp may suffer from having hair styles that may not be damaging to the type of scalp their favorite soccer players possess.

So, if you are a football fan, you can try copying your favorite soccer star’s hair as long as it is not causing you hair loss. If you yourself are a soccer player then you should know this:

• Excessive sun exposure from weekend soccer games can transform healthy hair into a brittle, filmy mess that may last for months.

• Damage is more common in the players who have blonde hairs.

So you should consult your hair specialist on regular basis. One of the things the hair expert will most probably advice you is the use of a good hair sunscreen. Strictly follow the expert’s advises; you may be the next Beckham.

I don’t understand this question but a guy at my church told it to me and it sounded so plausible. He thought blondes wouldn’t survive in the wild and so wouldn’t live long enough to breed.

My natural hair color is dark brown and I dye my hair a lot but usually I go darker. I now want to do a drastic change and go from pitch black(dyed) to dark blonde. I am going to either:
1. Bleach over the black, then dye the bleached hair dark blonde.
or
2. Use a color stripper and strip the black from my hair leaving me with my natural dark brown hair and then use a light blonde that the results will be dark blonde.

Which option would work best? Thanks for any advice.
