Help Highlights to bleach and tone?

Upvotes

Hi, I’ve only gotten highlights once and I wasn’t too happy with my result. I was looking for more of a solid color and less dimensional, not a full platinum blonde just a warm honey/brown color. Anyways, it’s been 2 months and I’m looking into getting it fixed but I’m not sure how I can go from what I have now to a bleach and tone, a stylist told me it would be hard since I have previous highlights from somebody else and overlap would cause breakage. I’m in the Houston Texas area so there are no shortage of stylist but I’m having such a hard time trying to figure out what to do. I would say I take good care of my hair but I still want the result I was looking for with minimal damage.

I used this picture as a reference for a haircut today, and I'd appreciate info on what I need to do to properly style it. I've had long hair that I tie back and ignore for quite a while, so I'm starting from scratch.

Help My hair is beyond saving

1 Upvotes

I desperately need help. My hair is very damaged, the ends all have white tips and I can’t cut and further because the front half of my hair is already broken off so its right above collarbone length, the back is long but also damaged so it looks like i have a jellyfish haircut.

This happened because i have curly hair (3C) and i tried permanently straightening at a salon about 1.5 years ago but that messed up my hair A LOT, the treatment failed.

The very top of my hair is curly and the rest is straight, thats why after every wash day (1x per week, if I do any more my hair will fall out) I have to straighten my hair and I do so with heat protection and low heat. I can’t not straighten my hair because i have work and school and I don’t want to look insane.

My hair looks and feels hard and crunchy, i can barely brush it because it tangles and sticks together and then breaks off. I already use Elseve bond repair shampoo, conditioner and serum and I’ve only seen some results in terms of softness.

If I chop off the damaged hair I will basically have a pixie cut which I do not want. Can somebody please help?

Help I hate brushing my hair so much please someone help me

2 Upvotes

Its the thing I hate most about having long hair and genuinely makes me want to go bald.

This post is being written with despair and anguish in my heart. For I just finished brushing my hair and it makes me hate my life more than anything

Am I being a drama queen and 100% overreacting? Yes.

But genuinely I need help. Im probably doing something wrong and Id love advice on how to make brushing my hair less evil.

Im gonna write my hair brushing routine so you can tell me Im stupid and doing everything wrong and how to fix it now.

I have long straight-wavy hair. 50+ cm. I only brush it straight after the shower. after I use shampoo and conditioner on it. I use some leave in conditioner before I start brushing. I try to start from my ends and work my way up. Then I brush it all back so its away from my face and I can do skincare.

Its such a tangled mess and takes 20 - 30 minutes to get it done. I have so much hair on my brush by the time Im finished and Im worried its more than there should be.

HELP

PLEASE

Help First time bleach blonde hair looks ugly-yellow and I feel like I’m doing everything wrong. How do I achieve my dream result?

Hello, everyone! I apologise in advance for the length, but I feel a bit helpless.

Almost two months ago, I went to the salon to dye and bleach my virgin brown hair (picture 1) into a Neapolitan (blonde, brown, pink) style (picture 2). It was one round of bleach and then toner (I think?) Ever since that day, my journey has been rather confusing.

All of the color had washed out within two weeks - i was left with blonde hair only thirteen days after getting the colors done at the salon (picture 3). I wash bi-daily, my hair is genetically predisposed to get greasy fast. I used purple shampoos from the drug store, no masks or anything though.

Ever since then, my hair has been getting yellower and yellower and now it reached a stillstand and is stuck the same yellow (pictures 4-5, most recent). I use a purple shampoo 1-2 a week and otherwise am TERRIFIED of touching it. It’s yellow and a little dry now, although it had never been perfectly healthy.. i wouldn’t say that it’s frizzy or thinning or anything like that.

I badly want the blonde on picture 6 and it’s been making me very sad because I can’t help but feel ugly. I grew up around women that didn’t care to be very feminine and didn’t teach me about things like hair dye etc. and I have no female friends that I can ask. When I go outside, I see myriads of beautiful women with blonde hair and darker roots, so they clearly bleach or dye it and manage to make it look half decent.

I have so many questions:

Is it normal for my hair to lose color so quickly? Especially the brown and pink?
How often am I meant to go to the salon?
Do most blonde ladies go to the salon? Do they do it at home?
Am I meant to be getting toners? A second round of bleach?

I’m planning an appointment at the same salon in 3-4 weeks and I plan to use picture 6 as the references. I’m so scared that I’ll waste money and it’ll be all yellow again.. but I am also scared of mh hair falling out and still remaining yellow if I bleach again.

I’d love to hear some words of advice! Thanks in advance :))

So my hair has been long and straight/naturally slightly wavy for ages, and my little goth self needs a change.
My hair has been bleached and dyed a few times, if that matters, and I’ve been doing my own trims to give myself a kind of long wolfcut for a while, and Death from Sandman is an absolute favorite of mine, so I wanted her hair length and style for very goth reasons lol.
Could anyone help me by telling me if it’d be possible, if it’d look good on a real person, or if it’d be too tough to recreate ? Pretty please ? 🥲

This mohawk-ish thing is...not me. I can't push it to the side because someone said I look like a nerdy teen boy. But pushing it forward is just bad too. It's too short to get trimmed to a different shape but this just makes my face look....exposed.

Question Hair tie emergency

I have very thick hair. I used to get my hair bands from Claire’s as there was a lot in one packet, were a decent size and most importantly were stretchy (they also had a decent selection). Obviously now Claire’s is shut and so I can’t get them. Does anyone have an alternative recommendation??

Sorry kind of a bad pic, I'm in the darkness watching my baby at 4am. My hair is just past my shoulders. Why does it curl up like this? Is it from my hair resting on my shoulder while it dries? I used to keep my hair short and the ends would always flick outwards as well.

Question Can hair colour change naturally?

So, before i turned 3 or 4, i had very blonde and curly hair. Then my hair turned straight and dark brown(almost black from distance) for some reason and at 14 my hair started curling again. i wanted to know if it’s possible that my hair will go blonde again? I’m asking this because my hair is surely lighter than it was 1-2 years ago.

Help Idk what to do with my hair

I’m really open to any suggestions at all. Currently my routine is, I wash may hair, either using native shampoo and conditioner or the castor oil kitsch shampoo and conditioner. Ounce out of the shower il dry my hair a bit with just a normal towel then I use garnier leave in conditioner and one of there hair oils ( I added photos of the 2 I used). I brush my hair through put my bangs in rollers and typically let my hair air dry, I do sometimes blow dry it.

I don’t really know what my hair type is I think maybe 2A, my hairs tends to be pretty frizzy and my hair is low porosity and pretty thick. I currently have layers in my hair and bangs with face framing pieces

I added photos of all the products I use and of my hair which I washed tdy and have the products I listed in it, any suggestions would be great.

Help Advice needed: is this damage frizz or improperly managed wave?

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Thank you in advance for any comments.

I have thin/fine hair but no matter what I do, they are never shiny, unless dried in high heat at a salon. I treated them as straight hair since always, but they do curl a bit, especially at the back underneath the frizzed layer.

At this poin I do not know what to do… if this is frizz, how can I help it? If they are wavy, how to manage that? I once tried the Curly Girl Method for about 6months and honestly… it was a drag I’m not prepared for now.

I do dye my hair about every 2-3months.

One note: I’m 10minths postpartum, hence the odd baby hair. My iron levels are ok. My hair always had this frizz problem, even before/after pregnancy.
