Blonde Network

I’ve been having a debate with my gf about it for a little while. I believe that bleach blonde is the more white kind of blonde and that platinum is a more golden metallic color. So far what pictures I’ve gone looking for to try to prove have been just as confusing as I am already about it. How would you describe each one?

Let’s get started with the process to turn our locks of hair into that beautiful shade of all shades, the ethereal platinum blonde. Although you can easily do it at home with powdered bleach but to be safe, it is recommended to see your stylist. If you just have to take matters into your own hands and do it yourself at home, then here are some suggestions to achieve that perfect color:

Use a 20% developer over two or three different sessions. 30% and 40% developer will lift the color more rapidly but will also do much more damage to your hair. Do not bleach your hair more than once a day. If you try to take your hair from dark to pale blonde in one day you will totally fry it. It is best to keep it to once a week or leave it even longer between sessions (if you can bare it) as your hair needs time to recover. Make sure you add deep conditioning treatments to your hair regularly to add protein back into your hair. Also use a leave in protein conditioner. Basically the more protein you can add back, the better your hair will feel. After beating your hair up with bleach it is now time to be very nice to it. Get rid of brassiness by using a toner. The toner will be purple based to counteract the yellow color. For platinum hair use a silver toner. I think that toner brands are a highly personal thing. Everyone has their own which they love – play around until you find the one that suits you best.
