Hi Jade, I’m Steve, a hubby, and helping my wife do her root regrown after she made a big mess and her hair is now breaking! I found your explanations excellent and you covered those annoying issues that many just gloss over. You also very real showing yourself and not some model in a salon. Thank you from the hubbies and helpers out there!
@@sweetcheeks5775 do ubhave any idea how much it costs to just have your regrowth for platinum blond done at a halfway decent place? I've never paid less than $200 for roots or $500 for whole head! And that is when my hair was just past shoulders. My hair is almost to my waist now and the quote I got 5 months ago was $600
This was such a wholesome comment. My husband's also a hair helper! Ever since my hair started getting too long for me to really do the touchups/highlights properly on my own without the risk of bleach overlap. "Teamwork makes the dreamwork" has such corny "live, laugh, love" energy but I can't deny the truth of it!😆 Here's to all the spouses that roll up their sleeves and help us DIY stylists on our neverending blonde-ing adventures! 😂👍
This is literally THE best bleach tutorial I have seen (and I’ve watched A LOT). You explain everything SO well and the pictures you drew really helped me understand as well!!
There are THOUSANDS of videos on the same topic (and I feel like I've seen them all at this point) and hands down yours is the best. You really go in depth without spiralling into useless rambling. Every bit of info was relevant, thorough and well-explained. YOU ROCK!
You explain heat bands very well. I'm currently studying at a hair academy in Melbourne and I should just watch your videos instead of asking my teachers lol
Thank you for this video. I have about two inches of growth that needs bleached and since my hubby helps me, I can show this to him and give him an idea of where to start and why he shouldn't begin on my roots, but come back to them later. I just realized you put this out almost five years ago!!
For ages my hairdresser kept making the dreaded burn line in my hair! Now I know what it's called I can prevent it! I've also always been scared to bleach my roots out but now I'm feeling a little more confident! Such an awesome and informative video! Thank you!!!
Hello lady, my hair got seriously burnt due to bleaching and I thought I’d had to go brunette (From a beautiful platinum color) because my hair had no salvation. I waited for 4 months, my hair started growing a lot and I came through your videos. I took a chance, follow every single advice and voila. Got my roots platinum again. Thank you so much.
Hey there I’m in the same boat, I had my hair platinum but had to get it brunette (my natural shade) for 3 months now just to let it get healthier. It’s doing much better now and I’d love to go back to the silver blonde I had in it, although I did a test strand last night and the root of my hair that has grown out only lifted to a orange colour (the bottom of the hair lifted great). So how did you achieve the platinum blonde again? Will I have to bleach the root twice? Any help would be really appreciated, thank you xx
This is the most informative video I have ever seen in this subject! Absolutely amazing, thank you!! I’m attempting to do a “color correction” at home due to bad hair dressers. This gave me much more knowledge and confidence ☺️
Same!! My salon gave mea huge band and when I asked how much my next visit would be they are quoting me a ‘color correction’ but I’ve not bleached anything it was the salon who left banding 😅 I don’t think they use olaplex and my last bleach was left on over an hour, now been too anxious to go back and tempted to try and do this at home, this tutorial is the best online for sure gives confidence. Hope you managed to fix your hair ♥️
Right?! I've been using this video in my own blonde-ing adventures for years whenever I am looking to tweak something and it's still super relevant as it was when she uploaded it! If you did go for it back in April, I hope you loved the results! xx cheers!
Yeah of course! hehe thanks hun! will do- it wont be up for a while, as we are half way through renovating our shower and bathroom! AHHHH!! but ill make sure ill make it for you!
This was awesome. Best bleaching video I've seen so far. I'd love if you did a video one day that shows you do the whole process of how you section at normal speed. The drawings were so good though. I'll definitely try the diagonal quarter method. Also didn't know about why it was important to do the back part first. Thank you so much!!! Loved it 💓💓💓
Hey! Great info, Jade. Thanks 🖤🖤 I’ve let my regrow this time go far too long and I *knew* in my heart I needed to do it differently than normal! Glad I found your video 😘
Omg thank you for the information I did buy a 20 vol👏🏻 I was just debating on using 30 but now I know I bought the right one 😁 it’s my first time doing it my self pray for me 🙏🏼
This video is amazing! Thank you for talking about and showing technique and it’s effects too! Also - Arctic Fox Bleach, please is a cruelty free bleach kit When you need to pull color and do root regrowth, where to do you start? Regrowth than pull the color with a bleach bath?
I'm a cosmetologist also and I wanted to applaud you on this video... you're so so so thorough. It's great! The only thing that I wanted to know that wasn't mentioned was what volume you use when doing the virgin application. I was thinking 20 on the outer part and 10 on the scalp. Or should it just be 20 on the outer, wait, and then 20 on the scalp? I've only been doing hair for about a year and blondes are tricky. Lol
Hey hun! Aw thank you so much! I just use 20vol thought the whole application. i haven't actually tried it with 20 & 10vol (give it a go if you want to) but yeah for me 20vol has always been great =D All the best with your career hun! Yeah i know blondes can be so hard! xx
Jade, I was just about to give up on doing this at home because of encountering so many poorly executed videos; no confidence in those. Thank you for being so professional in your delivery. I have a question, though, as my hair is cut very close on the sides and back, and a little longer on top. I can go about 4 or 5 weeks on top before I have it bleached, but the sides show regrowth pretty quickly. How do you suggest managing that issue?
Such a great informative video! I'm going to be bleaching my own re growth for the first time, this has helped a lot! My only question is how do you do the back of your head on your own? Thank you!
Thank you so much for this informative video! I'm going to be touching up my regrowth on my own (during Corona Quarantine) and this has given me a great lot of info to begin!
I've watched so many videos on this, am so anxious, this is the ONLY one that makes sense and gives me hope I won't completely mess it up with my covid fogged brain. Thank you, and wish me luck HAHA
Every time I go to salon for my bleaching, my scalp burns severely. I thought it was part of the process. Ppl keep telling me it shouldn’t burn, but mine always burns intensely. I have very sensitive skin, but high pain tolerance. So I’m not sure what is a tolerable amount of pain. This last time (my third root touch up some far), my scalp received damage and has scabbed in multiple places. What should I do? If the bleach gets washed out due to burning, how can I keep the roots blond? 😢
I have the same problem and now after 3 bleach baths I’ve got a dry scalp which never in my life has happened! In two minds whether to trust a salon again or diy. Have you had another salon visit since commenting here?
Loved Your tutorial. I would like your opinion on the punky color lightning fast 40 volume bleach kit? This is not a brand that I have ever bought before. Once I open the package and read The instructions I feel quite hesitant! So If you happen to have any information &/or opinion regarding this product I would be very appreciative For any advice you might have! And once again your tutorial was the BEST most informative video that I’ve ever watched on home bleaching/hair care!! 🙏 Thank You!!!❤
Very informative video. THANK YOU. I did my own hair for years after having a disaster perm in the 90s. I then met a friend who I trusted to do my color/highlights, and have been repeatedly disappointed with the results ("leopard spots"). She uses bleach with foils and heat. I have decided to do my own (hence the video searches) and would like to clarify that you recommend 20 volume developer with bleach to scalp application? I do own a salon dryer and could use that, but I don't want to use heat if I don't need it. I will be using your coconut oil recommendation (thank you for that!). I also saw a video where a girl used conditioner just past the new growth bleach application to avoid damage. I will purchase some 20 volume if you confirm that recommendations and set the 40 aside. Thank you in advance for your reply, and again, thanks for all the great tips!
Melissa Barber Jewell hey hun! yes i wouldnt use anything higher then 20vol with on scalp bleach!and i woud not use heat at all with bleach on sclap! No problem at all hun! hope it goes well for you! x
thank you for explaining the heat band and how to avoid it! I am wanting to dye my hair blonde again but have been unsure of how to avoid the heatband so this was super super helpful
Just gonna put it out there.. I've been platinum blonde for 5 months now.. And blonde for 2 years.. Bleach and peroxide was a walk in the park for my scalp compared to a tint! Tint absolutely killed my scalp. I'd sit there with a tail comb to use it to scratch my scalp.
+Rachael Ferguson hhaha YESSS i completely agree! most of the time with tint colours they use a much higher peroxide level on your scalp then they would use with bleach!! I had a blonde tint once with 40vol and OMG it was much worse then bleach on scalp! xx
Great video :) Thank You! I would also advice You to use two Big mirrors. Put one at The front of You slightly sideways And one Mirror at The back of You slightly sideways And then You will perfectly see The back of The hair when applying bleach. I sit on The floor when I do that. Good Luck! ;)
I find that ihaveto reapply with a fresh bowl. Because it dries out so fast whatam I doing wrong. Also, the company that I bought it from they recommended using a 20 volume developer burst. And then for the fresh ball going in with 30 ball for the re application part way through like as it was drying out. But when I did that, I noticed that the front, which was the last area that I did the second reapplication. Maybe I should have done the reapplication on the top first. And? Then the back because everything was done except for the front and it used to thirty volume. So i'm wondering if I should have maybe used a forty volume at the just at the front just so that it could have caught up with the rest of the hair where I did the second reapply w 30 vol
What an informative video I wish I had seen this before I tried to do my root touch-up! I had about an inch & a half dark roots & didn't realise they needed doing a certain way to smaller roots & have ended up with that dreaded heat ring! I have blue hair & had plans the next day so I just put the blue dye over to cover the worst but you can see a gingery brown line. Shall I wait a week & re bleach that line everywhere again avoiding my immediate roots? x
Claire Trippett Thank you so much!Yes! if you put coconut oil all around that area then just re bleach the line you hair will be fine! you wont have to leave it on for as long, so just keep an eye on it! x
Thank you. I am obviously leaving mine too long between bleaching and I get the banding. I will def use coconut oil on my next application. Thanks again. This was very informative.
I was looking for a cruelty free bleach, I'm glad to know there is! I never thought of using coconut oil while bleaching my hair but I will do that next time. Thanks for the tips :)
Hello Jade, that is some great tutorial! My hair except for the roots has been bleached before but it is a strong yellow color and probably needs to be a shade or two lighter to get to that silver hair i want. Do you think i could re-bleach it but leave it less time than the new growth? I began with dark brown color. Thanks!
Hi jade I know this isn't about hair but can I ask what colour eyebrow pencil your wearing my hair colour is the same as yours and don't know what eyebrow pencil to get
Hi ive bleached my hair from brown I got nice white colour except the roots they are a very light orange not sure wat to do my hair is very weak i put toner on still the same and I done purple shampoo what can I do with out my hair breaking off. Thanks lisa.
stop everything. do not do any more colours, toners, don’t use heat and be extremely careful when your hair is wet and when brushing it. sadly if it’s started breaking off there is nothing you can do to prevent it. going from brown to white is a LONG process that can take months if you want to maintain the health and integrity of your hair. yes, you can push your hair and do it in a day- but you could end up loosing majority of your hair. get yourself some Olaplex stand alone treatments, and their home care- get a good haircut to remove everything that’s breaking and wait. wouldn’t recommend colouring your hair for at least 6 weeks. build up the hairs integrity and go from there. all the best 💕💕💕
Obviously with lockdown my previously full head highlighted hair has got some major regrowth n it's seriously doing my head in!! I want to go a pastel pinkish colour. My regrowth is around 2 inches ish so what would the best method be as can't wait until hairdressers are open again as don't know when that will happen!!!! And short of money for them sadly!!!! My length of hair has gone yellowish now so I know that would need toning to get it lighter but what's the best way so I don't end up with the dreaded line lol, sorry for the long comment... Many thanks for your video, btw my hair is in great condition.
Wonderful. The actual info and tips I needed. I especially loved the visuals/diagrams. Thank you for explaining 'why' for so much of it. Really helps me understand. Thank you, lovely lady.
Hoping someone can help me with this question. I’ve been helping my teenage daughter bleach her hair for about six months. My problem is she has super thick hair and it takes me well over an hour to do her entire head. It’s really difficult to bleach half then have to have her wash her head before I do the other half so the bleach doesn’t sit for too long. Is there any advice about how to do this on very thick hair?
I had that same question too, I have very thick hair, and I saw a video with Josie Vilay in BTC university Explaining how you can play with developers she use a lower developer in the back of the head and a higher one in the front.
Itzel Melissa Gomez Thanks! I will look for that video. Also I found that if I do the very bottom in the back last it doesn’t matter as much. It can be the least bleached and doesn’t show.
@@DR-tv9lg you need to use a lower developer on the roots and a higher one for the mids/ends. Always Start at the back. Remember it’s always 2:1 ratio. 2 parts developer 1 part bleach. Start with this formula starting at the nape/back of your head and move up. Scalp -40g bleach + 80g 7vol Mids/ends (leave the very ends out until the very end if you are bleaching for the 2nd time to avoid breakage) 50g bleach + 100g 20vol With this method, Since you’re starting with 7vol on the scalp you can apply everything at the same time. The 7 vol is much slower acting and gentle, so even though it’s being applied to your warm scalp, it’ll process at the same pace as the 20vol that you’re applying to the mids/ends. Make sense?
I got question I got salon dyed hair my silver regrowth is abt three inches I’m scared to death in bleaching my hair but I’m trying to get it back as close to my silver as I can what do suggest I gonna get a shorter hair cut today but I’m seriously thinking of bleaching my hair so it blend with my natural silver
my natural hair/regrowth is level 1 or 2 dark black. professional stylists tend to mess up the process more often than not, and don't lift the regrowth to a light enough blonde. sometimes they only lift it to a light brown copper, and it's ridiculous even with toner. they insist on using 30vol when I basically beg them to use 40vol. Sometimes they mix some 40 into the 30vol mix to make it a bit stronger. What is a girl with naturally pitch black hair to do, when she wants platinum blonde hair? My hair is mostly platinum, but every time its time to do my roots, it's always a mess and i have to fix it after...the struggle. I think i'll just do it myself and use 40vol... ugh i dont know what to do.
BleedingxRainbow i feel your pain! i would suggest doing 2 lots of 20vol or 30vol applications! do 1, let it process, rinse it off, dry your hair, then apply the second application! remember your scalp will be super sensitive the 2nd time round- so just keep an eye on it!
I'm multifandom It could if you bleach it every day and use a high level of peroxide! if you wait a few weeks between bleaches and use a lower level of peroxide and always read the Manufactures instructions you will be fine!
I use 30 volume but I have very dark brown hair, probably a number 2 or 3 on your scale. Im wondering, i have bleached hair thats probably two colors from platinum. Im trying to get to platinum but I have a little over an inch of regrowth. I understand from your video how to rebleach my growth but what about trying to lighten the current blonde more? Can I cover everything at the same time i covered my scalp? Or is that too much processing time for the current blonde?
I'm getting ready to do another lightening session on my hair. I'm doing it myself because i don't have the time or money to spend at the salon. My hair is currently about a level 6/7 and I have about 1" of regrowth that is about a level 3. I picked up a box of Loreal Paris Excellence Cream in the color light ash blonde, to help avoid brassiness. Obviously, I do my roots first but how long should I let that process before doing the rest of my hair? Please don't leave hateful comments, I'm not a professional but I do quite a bit of research before touching my hair.
Hey Hun! Sounds like you have picked up a tint colour? ( If it's in a tube then it's a tint colour- I've never used any or L'Oréal products so I'm not 100% sure) if you are wanting a super light result the tint colour probably won't be strong enough to cut through a level 3's underlying pigments. Bleach powder products will usually give you a better result over tint products. Also the tint Product will not work on the rest of your hair as it is already coloured- tint on tint won't lift. Bleach is the best bet Hun.
Thank you Jade for this tutorial pretty girl. I'm going to have to give mines a go myself due to lockdown. I believe they use (bleach plus 6%) on my hair, so I have purchased Schwarzkopf (Blond Me) products - 9+ powder, & 6%/20 Vol developer. I've never ever tackled my own hair root growth ever before but will give it a go. Going by your tutorial & other tutorials, I see there's always a toner used at the end. I'm not aware of my hairdresser ever using a toner unless it's something they do use in the washbasin at the final rinse, but they know I'm not a fan of purple shampoos etc, & I'm pretty sure they don't use toner on me at all, just using normal shampoo although I'm not 100% on that lol. Thank you so much for your perfect instructions & sketched diagram. I'll pass this video tutorial onto my hubby as he's the one who's gonna have to take the plunge on my hair lol. Wish me luck, yikes. Thank you so much Jade. xx
So glad I found this video. Just bleached my hair to try to get it like my picture but it's a bit on the orange side. It was on for 50 minutes and I was a scared to leave it any longer but feel I might have taken it off too soon (didn't lift enough). I think I might do a bleach bath. My question for you would be should I do that at the same time as I touch up my roots in some weeks? Or should I just touch up my roots and try using a lighter toner on the rest? Thank you in advance!
My hair is naturally a dark brown. However, I do have some red in from a box dye I did months ago. We're talking about an inch of hair at most. That's where most of it wants to look a bit orange. The toner I used was T27 Wella Color Charm.
+buttarikan5 Hey buttarikan5 ! i have bleached my hair the last months and what i do is that i bleach one day for 40-50 mins top, but it is never enough, so next day i repeat, i bleach again my roots but for 30-40 mins tops and then i dye it or tone it. Later i use a all the hair mask i have or conditioners because my hair will be super dry. But that usually get me my platiunium/grey blonde. It is boring to bleach 2 days but so far it works for me and my hair is okay, not super healthy but it is ok.
Thanks! I've finally got the process down. LOL. Very similar to what you just mentioned but since I have a very short haircut, it is constantly being buzzed so I don't have to worry too much about damage so I'm happy.
Very informative video, I loved all the tips and things, I had my roots grow in about an inch a few months ago and I experienced a pretty yellow toned heat band, and after seeing this video I am getting wonderful colour on my roots. I usually just get my hair cut short enough around the sides and back so that I don't have to part my hair (benefits of being a guy
terreen Thanks so much! im glad you liked it!I feel that a toner wont help remove the colour- it may make it show more (depending on what toner you use) try another gentle bleach bath in that area only or even shampoo with bicarb soda! xx
So I lightened my whole head a day ago and I did it the proper way starting from the back with thin slices in foil leaving out 1/2 inch to come back and around and finish up with lightener but I have a couple of spots that didn't lighten as much as I wanted like all the rest it's been a few days but I'm going to give it a week to come back to it but in the mean time I'm doing olaplex treatments and coconut oil masks just to give it some love before putting more bleach on it. I used 30vol previously because my hair is stubborn to lighten so should I use 20vol for the 2nd go around or 10vol also should I use foils or no?
How do you apply low-lights to bleached hair? Is it applied in the same method as highlights or baby lights? and how do avoid getting the lowlight color on the bleached areas when rinsing it off? Sorry, I know I asked so many questions, but I want to learn lol.
it depends on what results you want, you can foil them yes, or bayalage too if you like. the tricky thing is, depending on how dark you are going with low lights and if you hair is light, you will need too "fill" the low light areas so the colour turns out even and isn't wishy washy. Some brands have "pre filled" lowlight shades like goldwell, or Delorenzo you can add filler to your colour before applying. when rinsing you need to try and keep the colours separate and rinse out 1 foil at a time, before moving onto the next one. xx
@@Jade_fawkes thank you so much for replying 💕 can redken shades eq be used to add lowlights and does that line have filler? I'm not entirely sure what is meant by filler to be honest if you don't mind explaining. Again thank you for taking the time to respond 💜
I tried this at home, great advice, but my hair turned orange. This is completely my fault not yours, I just need to know what to do in this situation. I have natural medium brown hair, I only bleached about 4 inches of root growth (as the rest of my hair is bleached same colour as you) leaving the inch near the scalp until last which worked out fine, everything looks even, i used coconut oil. I used 20 volume and bleach powder and left it on for 1hr after dying hair (which took 1hr 25mins to dye) so I am unsure where I have gone wrong. My hair is really good quality and it's been a week. Should I dye it again with 20vol and bleach powder like last time? as that way it will lift my hair even more? Or should I be using a type of hair toner? I already used a good purple shampoo straight after and left it on for 20mins and also used a hair mask straight after for 30mins. I usually go to the hair dressers but it costs nearly £200 each time, so I wanted to try this at home. Please help any advice on where i could have gone wrong or if to try and lift it again with bleach and 20vol.
Hi!! I’m so so happy to have ground your channel !! I have watched so many videos on this and yours in by far the absolute best! I have a unique situation and could really use some advice please I’m pretty desperate Bleached hair, covid hits my roots grow so so long. With a friends advice who does hair I bleached it 2 times and toned With t18 wells I ended up with being so close but still too yellow. I have waited a month and it’s been ruff lol So now I have small amount of dark roots that I know if it was just that it would be perfect but I also have the part yellow still. So my question is the application. Do I do all the yellow parts first and then go to roots? Or do I do it all at the same time? Thank you so so much I’m advance and thank you for doing what you do! Much love Colleen
I have to rig a full length mirror propped on a vanity stool and the wall behind the bathroom mirror, face the full length one and look in the bathroom one for better lighting
I’m using the guy tang big nine and then I’m going to be adding in the color my identity 6CRC and 7CRC so yeah it should be orange hopefully my roots will work out well thanks for the tips on not getting too close to the orange color in the drawing
Your video is really professional and sounds like you do know what you are doing. Thanks for a smooth- specific explanation, it helped me a lot. thanks..!

Wow!! I've watched a lot of videos on bleaching! I would have to say this has been one of the best and most informative! Thank you Jade!!

Right?! I've been using this video in my own blonde-ing adventures for years whenever I am looking to tweak something and it's still super relevant as it was when she uploaded it! If you did go for it back in April, I hope you loved the results! xx cheers!
I do my roots every 6 weeks and it always turns out perfect 👌 40 volume is definitely a no no, I always use 30. love the diagrams
Same girl.......same. 100 percent 😜
very instructive and informative video, probably best regrowth video I've seen yet. good job!!
***** WOO HOO! thanks hun! xx
Can you please make a haircare routine video? My hair is so damaged and i'd love to know how your hair still looks so good after bleaching (: xx
Yeah of course! hehe thanks hun! will do- it wont be up for a while, as we are half way through renovating our shower and bathroom! AHHHH!! but ill make sure ill make it for you!
Last time I bleached my roots it was SO itchy! I am going to redo them in a few minutes! Wish me luck!
Every time you bleach your hair it’s going to be itchy, if you don’t want the itchiness just do full head of highlights so it won’t irritate the scalp
This was awesome. Best bleaching video I've seen so far. I'd love if you did a video one day that shows you do the whole process of how you section at normal speed. The drawings were so good though. I'll definitely try the diagonal quarter method. Also didn't know about why it was important to do the back part first. Thank you so much!!! Loved it 💓💓💓
Literally the best video about color!!!
100% this is the most informative I’ve found, currently rocking super grown out dark root/blonde - super scared but I need to fix it!
Hey! Great info, Jade. Thanks 🖤🖤 I’ve let my regrow this time go far too long and I *knew* in my heart I needed to do it differently than normal! Glad I found your video 😘
So nervous of doing my hair, my roots have grown very long! But defo going to try this!
Omg thank you for the information I did buy a 20 vol👏🏻 I was just debating on using 30 but now I know I bought the right one 😁 it’s my first time doing it my self pray for me 🙏🏼
This video is amazing! Thank you for talking about and showing technique and it’s effects too!
Also - Arctic Fox Bleach, please is a cruelty free bleach kit
When you need to pull color and do root regrowth, where to do you start? Regrowth than pull the color with a bleach bath?
Just wanted to say thank you for showing us how to apply bleach on our roots!!! I couldnt find advice about this ANYWHERE!
I'm a cosmetologist also and I wanted to applaud you on this video... you're so so so thorough. It's great! The only thing that I wanted to know that wasn't mentioned was what volume you use when doing the virgin application. I was thinking 20 on the outer part and 10 on the scalp. Or should it just be 20 on the outer, wait, and then 20 on the scalp? I've only been doing hair for about a year and blondes are tricky. Lol
Hey hun! Aw thank you so much! I just use 20vol thought the whole application. i haven't actually tried it with 20 & 10vol (give it a go if you want to) but yeah for me 20vol has always been great =D All the best with your career hun! Yeah i know blondes can be so hard! xx
You are so informative best person I’ve seen to finally answer my questions and confusion 🥰
Without makeup and with the dark regrowth you reminded me of Maria Brink :)
Jade, I was just about to give up on doing this at home because of encountering so many poorly executed videos; no confidence in those. Thank you for being so professional in your delivery. I have a question, though, as my hair is cut very close on the sides and back, and a little longer on top. I can go about 4 or 5 weeks on top before I have it bleached, but the sides show regrowth pretty quickly. How do you suggest managing that issue?
I have had to search so many videos to find this info!! Thank you for finally explaining this in a simple to do way!!! Really appreciate the help!
Such a great informative video! I'm going to be bleaching my own re growth for the first time, this has helped a lot! My only question is how do you do the back of your head on your own? Thank you!
Thank you! Lots of practice! 2 mirrors (one in front, and one behind so you can see the back) helps heaps too!
the visual aid was a great idea!
Thank you so much for this informative video! I'm going to be touching up my regrowth on my own (during Corona Quarantine) and this has given me a great lot of info to begin!
I've watched so many videos on this, am so anxious, this is the ONLY one that makes sense and gives me hope I won't completely mess it up with my covid fogged brain. Thank you, and wish me luck HAHA
This is the first video of yours I have watched. I have one thing to say. WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE?! 😍😍😍
Every time I go to salon for my bleaching, my scalp burns severely. I thought it was part of the process. Ppl keep telling me it shouldn’t burn, but mine always burns intensely. I have very sensitive skin, but high pain tolerance. So I’m not sure what is a tolerable amount of pain. This last time (my third root touch up some far), my scalp received damage and has scabbed in multiple places. What should I do? If the bleach gets washed out due to burning, how can I keep the roots blond? 😢
I have the same problem and now after 3 bleach baths I’ve got a dry scalp which never in my life has happened! In two minds whether to trust a salon again or diy. Have you had another salon visit since commenting here?
Your instructions are awesome. I love how simple you made it with your drawings and the purple shampoo. I'm now subscribed 💙
Loved Your tutorial.
I would like your opinion on the punky color lightning fast 40 volume bleach kit?
This is not a brand that I have ever bought before. Once I open the package and read The instructions I feel quite hesitant!
So If you happen to have any information &/or opinion regarding this product I would be very appreciative For any advice you might have!
And once again your tutorial was the BEST most informative video that I’ve ever watched on home bleaching/hair care!!
🙏 Thank You!!!❤
Very informative video. THANK YOU. I did my own hair for years after having a disaster perm in the 90s. I then met a friend who I trusted to do my color/highlights, and have been repeatedly disappointed with the results ("leopard spots"). She uses bleach with foils and heat. I have decided to do my own (hence the video searches) and would like to clarify that you recommend 20 volume developer with bleach to scalp application? I do own a salon dryer and could use that, but I don't want to use heat if I don't need it. I will be using your coconut oil recommendation (thank you for that!). I also saw a video where a girl used conditioner just past the new growth bleach application to avoid damage. I will purchase some 20 volume if you confirm that recommendations and set the 40 aside. Thank you in advance for your reply, and again, thanks for all the great tips!
Melissa Barber Jewell hey hun! yes i wouldnt use anything higher then 20vol with on scalp bleach!and i woud not use heat at all with bleach on sclap! No problem at all hun! hope it goes well for you! x
Best way to tone. I used to only use silver shampoo for my white hair and I never had any yellow. So much more gentle and perfect.
sure is! ill never go back to how i used to tone my hair! xx
thank you for explaining the heat band and how to avoid it! I am wanting to dye my hair blonde again but have been unsure of how to avoid the heatband so this was super super helpful
Just gonna put it out there.. I've been platinum blonde for 5 months now.. And blonde for 2 years.. Bleach and peroxide was a walk in the park for my scalp compared to a tint! Tint absolutely killed my scalp. I'd sit there with a tail comb to use it to scratch my scalp.
+Rachael Ferguson hhaha YESSS i completely agree! most of the time with tint colours they use a much higher peroxide level on your scalp then they would use with bleach!! I had a blonde tint once with 40vol and OMG it was much worse then bleach on scalp! xx
Best video about bleaching so far!
Yay! Thank you!
Awesome tips ,I grown my roots and I had that colour heat band thing ,im growing the back of my roots now so ill defo try that virgin method :D
let me know how you go!
thanks for the video!!!
Anytime x
I was just about to purchase a 40% bleaching kit. Thank you so much for the warning and the brilliant informative video.
what do you think about putting some sweet n low packets into the bleaching mixture?? (this is to minimize itchiness and burning feeling on the scalp)
Best video I’ve seen on doing root re growth thanks
Thank you! I took away a lot of info that I can actually use.
Oh my pleasure! glad i could help! x
Great video :) Thank You! I would also advice You to use two Big mirrors. Put one at The front of You slightly sideways And one Mirror at The back of You slightly sideways And then You will perfectly see The back of The hair when applying bleach. I sit on The floor when I do that. Good Luck! ;)
I find that ihaveto reapply with a fresh bowl. Because it dries out so fast whatam I doing wrong. Also, the company that I bought it from they recommended using a 20 volume developer burst. And then for the fresh ball going in with 30 ball for the re application part way through like as it was drying out. But when I did that, I noticed that the front, which was the last area that I did the second reapplication. Maybe I should have done the reapplication on the top first. And?
Then the back because everything was done except for the front and it used to thirty volume. So i'm wondering if I should have maybe used a forty volume at the just at the front just so that it could have caught up with the rest of the hair where I did the second reapply w 30 vol
What’s your favorite lightner I been using a cream one from ion and wanna try Schwarzkopf blonde me.. what you think?!
you're so beautiful without makeup!
Aw thank you!
What an informative video I wish I had seen this before I tried to do my root touch-up! I had about an inch & a half dark roots & didn't realise they needed doing a certain way to smaller roots & have ended up with that dreaded heat ring! I have blue hair & had plans the next day so I just put the blue dye over to cover the worst but you can see a gingery brown line. Shall I wait a week & re bleach that line everywhere again avoiding my immediate roots? x
Claire Trippett Thank you so much!Yes! if you put coconut oil all around that area then just re bleach the line you hair will be fine! you wont have to leave it on for as long, so just keep an eye on it! x
Thank you. I am obviously leaving mine too long between bleaching and I get the banding. I will def use coconut oil on my next application. Thanks again. This was very informative.
My pleasure! glad i could help!
Thanku..I think your vid just saved me making a hash of bleaching my roots for the first time..thanks to you they came out perfect...relief. 😆
Helpful video! I love ur lipstick, what color is it?
ok but WHAT shadow are you wearing in this video???😍
Can I do high lights with it at home shadow root no yellow ?
Which treatment do you use after bleaching your hair?
This was soo thorough and explains it in such a good way for beginners!
First time watching one if your videos; so lovely to know you're cruelty free as well!
Amanda Merklee Aw thanks hun! welcome! xx
I was looking for a cruelty free bleach, I'm glad to know there is! I never thought of using coconut oil while bleaching my hair but I will do that next time. Thanks for the tips :)
Yeah it took me a while to find one too! Yes do- it makes such a difference!
Hello Jade, that is some great tutorial! My hair except for the roots has been bleached before but it is a strong yellow color and probably needs to be a shade or two lighter to get to that silver hair i want. Do you think i could re-bleach it but leave it less time than the new growth? I began with dark brown color. Thanks!
Hi jade I know this isn't about hair but can I ask what colour eyebrow pencil your wearing my hair colour is the same as yours and don't know what eyebrow pencil to get
Hi ive bleached my hair from brown I got nice white colour except the roots they are a very light orange not sure wat to do my hair is very weak i put toner on still the same and I done purple shampoo what can I do with out my hair breaking off. Thanks lisa.
stop everything.
do not do any more colours, toners, don’t use heat and be extremely careful when your hair is wet and when brushing it.
sadly if it’s started breaking off there is nothing you can do to prevent it. going from brown to white is a LONG process that can take months if you want to maintain the health and integrity of your hair. yes, you can push your hair and do it in a day- but you could end up loosing majority of your hair.
get yourself some Olaplex stand alone treatments, and their home care- get a good haircut to remove everything that’s breaking and wait. wouldn’t recommend colouring your hair for at least 6 weeks. build up the hairs integrity and go from there. all the best 💕💕💕
I went to school for hair Nd i swear. I just learned somthing new! Thank u
Obviously with lockdown my previously full head highlighted hair has got some major regrowth n it's seriously doing my head in!! I want to go a pastel pinkish colour. My regrowth is around 2 inches ish so what would the best method be as can't wait until hairdressers are open again as don't know when that will happen!!!! And short of money for them sadly!!!! My length of hair has gone yellowish now so I know that would need toning to get it lighter but what's the best way so I don't end up with the dreaded line lol, sorry for the long comment... Many thanks for your video, btw my hair is in great condition.
You are just amazing at explaining the process!!
WOW. Well done on providing everyone with such an informative video!!!!
Wonderful. The actual info and tips I needed. I especially loved the visuals/diagrams. Thank you for explaining 'why' for so much of it. Really helps me understand.
Thank you, lovely lady.
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching!!
Hello whats the gentlest bleaches for on scalp use please?
Hoping someone can help me with this question. I’ve been helping my teenage daughter bleach her hair for about six months. My problem is she has super thick hair and it takes me well over an hour to do her entire head. It’s really difficult to bleach half then have to have her wash her head before I do the other half so the bleach doesn’t sit for too long. Is there any advice about how to do this on very thick hair?
I’m commenting because I have the same problem with my hair. Hope someone can answer us. ❤️
I had that same question too, I have very thick hair, and I saw a video with Josie Vilay in BTC university
Explaining how you can play with developers she use a lower developer in the back of the head and a higher one in the front.
Itzel Melissa Gomez Thanks! I will look for that video. Also I found that if I do the very bottom in the back last it doesn’t matter as much. It can be the least bleached and doesn’t show.
@@DR-tv9lg you need to use a lower developer on the roots and a higher one for the mids/ends. Always Start at the back. Remember it’s always 2:1 ratio. 2 parts developer 1 part bleach.
Start with this formula starting at the nape/back of your head and move up.
Scalp -40g bleach + 80g 7vol
Mids/ends (leave the very ends out until the very end if you are bleaching for the 2nd time to avoid breakage)
50g bleach + 100g 20vol
With this method, Since you’re starting with 7vol on the scalp you can apply everything at the same time. The 7 vol is much slower acting and gentle, so even though it’s being applied to your warm scalp, it’ll process at the same pace as the 20vol that you’re applying to the mids/ends.
Make sense?
Should I use 30 volume for bleaching and 20 for toning? I’ve done it before or do you think all around 20 is good?
20 should be good for everything. 30 is very harsh and can cause more damage than needed
Thank you so much Jade! This is what I needed❤
What about grey hair regrowth? Tutorial is very helpful! Thank you!
Could you do a video on how to banish orange from blonde hair? Love ur videos x
Hey Hun! I've done one on yellow hair- Orange is the exact same! You will need to bleach it more to be able to tone it!
I got question I got salon dyed hair my silver regrowth is abt three inches I’m scared to death in bleaching my hair but I’m trying to get it back as close to my silver as I can what do suggest I gonna get a shorter hair cut today but I’m seriously thinking of bleaching my hair so it blend with my natural silver
This makes so much sense I’m leaving my visits too long and my stylist is getting banding because she does the regrowth application not virgin...
my natural hair/regrowth is level 1 or 2 dark black. professional stylists tend to mess up the process more often than not, and don't lift the regrowth to a light enough blonde. sometimes they only lift it to a light brown copper, and it's ridiculous even with toner. they insist on using 30vol when I basically beg them to use 40vol. Sometimes they mix some 40 into the 30vol mix to make it a bit stronger. What is a girl with naturally pitch black hair to do, when she wants platinum blonde hair? My hair is mostly platinum, but every time its time to do my roots, it's always a mess and i have to fix it after...the struggle. I think i'll just do it myself and use 40vol... ugh i dont know what to do.
BleedingxRainbow i feel your pain! i would suggest doing 2 lots of 20vol or 30vol applications! do 1, let it process, rinse it off, dry your hair, then apply the second application! remember your scalp will be super sensitive the 2nd time round- so just keep an eye on it!
How long do you leave bleach on root?
Magic bleach is amazing. Lifts 10 levels. Cruelty free
I know that this an stupid question but the bleach damages a lot the hair so I'm afraid that I can end up being bald, could that happen?
I'm multifandom It could if you bleach it every day and use a high level of peroxide! if you wait a few weeks between bleaches and use a lower level of peroxide and always read the Manufactures instructions you will be fine!
Hi Jade love the vid. Can I do a bleach bath on my roots instead of full bleach so it’s more subtle but still fades my roots..does that make sense xx
Hi did you ever try that? 😅
Super helpful.Off to do my regrowth now.Been doing it for years but have learned so much from you. And don't you look super cute without make up! XXX
Any tips? I’ll be doing it for my first time this week! 😭
You are zoooooo gorgeous without makeup too😦☺️ also this was insanely helpful thank you earth angel~ 🙏
You're so welcome!
I use 30 volume but I have very dark brown hair, probably a number 2 or 3 on your scale. Im wondering, i have bleached hair thats probably two colors from platinum. Im trying to get to platinum but I have a little over an inch of regrowth. I understand from your video how to rebleach my growth but what about trying to lighten the current blonde more? Can I cover everything at the same time i covered my scalp? Or is that too much processing time for the current blonde?
I'm getting ready to do another lightening session on my hair. I'm doing it myself because i don't have the time or money to spend at the salon. My hair is currently about a level 6/7 and I have about 1" of regrowth that is about a level 3. I picked up a box of Loreal Paris Excellence Cream in the color light ash blonde, to help avoid brassiness. Obviously, I do my roots first but how long should I let that process before doing the rest of my hair? Please don't leave hateful comments, I'm not a professional but I do quite a bit of research before touching my hair.
Hey Hun! Sounds like you have picked up a tint colour? ( If it's in a tube then it's a tint colour- I've never used any or L'Oréal products so I'm not 100% sure) if you are wanting a super light result the tint colour probably won't be strong enough to cut through a level 3's underlying pigments. Bleach powder products will usually give you a better result over tint products. Also the tint Product will not work on the rest of your hair as it is already coloured- tint on tint won't lift. Bleach is the best bet Hun.
If I mix in olaplex do I still need coconut oil
Thank you Jade for this tutorial pretty girl. I'm going to have to give mines a go myself due to lockdown. I believe they use (bleach plus 6%) on my hair, so I have purchased Schwarzkopf (Blond Me) products - 9+ powder, & 6%/20 Vol developer. I've never ever tackled my own hair root growth ever before but will give it a go. Going by your tutorial & other tutorials, I see there's always a toner used at the end. I'm not aware of my hairdresser ever using a toner unless it's something they do use in the washbasin at the final rinse, but they know I'm not a fan of purple shampoos etc, & I'm pretty sure they don't use toner on me at all, just using normal shampoo although I'm not 100% on that lol. Thank you so much for your perfect instructions & sketched diagram. I'll pass this video tutorial onto my hubby as he's the one who's gonna have to take the plunge on my hair lol. Wish me luck, yikes. Thank you so much Jade. xx
So glad I found this video. Just bleached my hair to try to get it like my picture but it's a bit on the orange side. It was on for 50 minutes and I was a scared to leave it any longer but feel I might have taken it off too soon (didn't lift enough). I think I might do a bleach bath. My question for you would be should I do that at the same time as I touch up my roots in some weeks? Or should I just touch up my roots and try using a lighter toner on the rest? Thank you in advance!
buttarikan5 hey hun! what colour was your hair before you bleached it? xx
My hair is naturally a dark brown. However, I do have some red in from a box dye I did months ago. We're talking about an inch of hair at most. That's where most of it wants to look a bit orange. The toner I used was T27 Wella Color Charm.
Also should be noted, I have short hair just like my picture. So most of the hair is new unprocessed growth. Thanks so much!
+buttarikan5 Hey buttarikan5 ! i have bleached my hair the last months and what i do is that i bleach one day for 40-50 mins top, but it is never enough, so next day i repeat, i bleach again my roots but for 30-40 mins tops and then i dye it or tone it. Later i use a all the hair mask i have or conditioners because my hair will be super dry. But that usually get me my platiunium/grey blonde.
It is boring to bleach 2 days but so far it works for me and my hair is okay, not super healthy but it is ok.
Thanks! I've finally got the process down. LOL. Very similar to what you just mentioned but since I have a very short haircut, it is constantly being buzzed so I don't have to worry too much about damage so I'm happy.
I tried to find the information on how to vanish the yellow tones from your hair but it wasn’t in the description box. Help please! Thank you!
Wow very detailed explanation , 👌👏👍 yet very informative
Very informative video, I loved all the tips and things, I had my roots grow in about an inch a few months ago and I experienced a pretty yellow toned heat band, and after seeing this video I am getting wonderful colour on my roots. I usually just get my hair cut short enough around the sides and back so that I don't have to part my hair (benefits of being a guy
terreen Thanks so much! im glad you liked it!I feel that a toner wont help remove the colour- it may make it show more (depending on what toner you use) try another gentle bleach bath in that area only or even shampoo with bicarb soda! xx
Ok thanks :) I got it to a very pale mint green now so I'll be diluting the bleach a LOT. Thank you!
So I lightened my whole head a day ago and I did it the proper way starting from the back with thin slices in foil leaving out 1/2 inch to come back and around and finish up with lightener but I have a couple of spots that didn't lighten as much as I wanted like all the rest it's been a few days but I'm going to give it a week to come back to it but in the mean time I'm doing olaplex treatments and coconut oil masks just to give it some love before putting more bleach on it. I used 30vol previously because my hair is stubborn to lighten so should I use 20vol for the 2nd go around or 10vol also should I use foils or no?
How do you apply low-lights to bleached hair? Is it applied in the same method as highlights or baby lights? and how do avoid getting the lowlight color on the bleached areas when rinsing it off? Sorry, I know I asked so many questions, but I want to learn lol.
it depends on what results you want, you can foil them yes, or bayalage too if you like. the tricky thing is, depending on how dark you are going with low lights and if you hair is light, you will need too "fill" the low light areas so the colour turns out even and isn't wishy washy. Some brands have "pre filled" lowlight shades like goldwell, or Delorenzo you can add filler to your colour before applying.
when rinsing you need to try and keep the colours separate and rinse out 1 foil at a time, before moving onto the next one. xx
@@Jade_fawkes thank you so much for replying 💕 can redken shades eq be used to add lowlights and does that line have filler? I'm not entirely sure what is meant by filler to be honest if you don't mind explaining. Again thank you for taking the time to respond 💜
Thank you!! This is the best, most informative video I have seen!!! 🥰🥰🥰
I tried this at home, great advice, but my hair turned orange. This is completely my fault not yours, I just need to know what to do in this situation. I have natural medium brown hair, I only bleached about 4 inches of root growth (as the rest of my hair is bleached same colour as you) leaving the inch near the scalp until last which worked out fine, everything looks even, i used coconut oil. I used 20 volume and bleach powder and left it on for 1hr after dying hair (which took 1hr 25mins to dye) so I am unsure where I have gone wrong. My hair is really good quality and it's been a week. Should I dye it again with 20vol and bleach powder like last time? as that way it will lift my hair even more? Or should I be using a type of hair toner? I already used a good purple shampoo straight after and left it on for 20mins and also used a hair mask straight after for 30mins. I usually go to the hair dressers but it costs nearly £200 each time, so I wanted to try this at home. Please help any advice on where i could have gone wrong or if to try and lift it again with bleach and 20vol.
Have you tried a gentle bleach shampoo? If you are worried about the strength/weakness in your hair it might be a more gentle way to lift whats left
Hi!! I’m so so happy to have ground your channel !! I have watched so many videos on this and yours in by far the absolute best!
I have a unique situation and could really use some advice please I’m pretty desperate
Bleached hair, covid hits my roots grow so so long. With a friends advice who does hair I bleached it 2 times and toned
With t18 wells
I ended up with being so close but still too yellow. I have waited a month and it’s been ruff lol
So now I have small amount of dark roots that I know if it was just that it would be perfect but I also have the part yellow still. So my question is the application. Do I do all the yellow parts first and then go to roots? Or do I do it all at the same time?
Thank you so so much I’m advance and thank you for doing what you do! Much love Colleen
Best explanation I have ever found on youtube. Your hair came out amazing thank you
Whoa, but how can I know if I’m not overlapping too much on the back

I’m using the guy tang big nine and then I’m going to be adding in the color my identity 6CRC and 7CRC so yeah it should be orange hopefully my roots will work out well thanks for the tips on not getting too close to the orange color in the drawing
Your video is really professional and sounds like you do know what you are doing.
Thanks for a smooth- specific explanation, it helped me a lot. thanks..!
