I've bleached my hair before following other content creators always with bad results, but my hair came out perfect this time without having to go back and fix anything.

    (I started keeping track way late, LOL)
    Bleach prep
    16:30 Why you shouldn't put oil on your hair generally - exception at 16:50
    17:30ish Wear gloves
    18:20 Demonstration - dividing hair into sections, where to start applying, apply to dry hair (19:40), 19:50 start at the back, more on how to start applying the bleach in sections.
    23:00 how to check progress
    23:34 summary, it's difficult - ask for help
    23:55 putting a bag on your head - helps process faster but want to keep it from drying out because then it stops working.
    24:50 how to check strength of your hair, make sure it's not too stretchy! check every 10 minutes
    25:27 don't comb your hair
    26:00 stay in the same room - don't want temperature changes, don't go out in the sun either
    26:34 rinsing off - watch out for your eyes!!
    27:20 use lukewarm water, not cold
    27:50 be gentle when rinsing your scalp, scalp is delicate
    28:10 TONER.
    28:55 Toner can't help orange pigments.
    29:20 Toner also will not lighten hair further. It is for "toning your level." If you are on a level 8, you can tone on a level 8, not a 10.
    29:45 Use toner with 10 volume mAX. Some brands offer combos where it comes with the toner and the developer.
    30:30 You cannot dilute 20/30 to 10 volume etc.
    31:00 purple shampoo is not toner.

      @@libragal815 no. Just start putting the bleach on the back lengths only first. Move to one side do those lengths. Other side. Do your middle section last. Gently rinse well, shampoo gently, do not scrub your scalp *as a matter of fact, do not agitate or brush your scalp a few days before you bleach. It will itch/burn more than you thought possible. Let dry. (Colors will look different when dry) apply bleach to regrowth area... DO NOT OVER LAP bleach onto already bleached lengths *this will guarantee breakage* rinse/shampoo/dry as before. If color is ok and doesn't need another bleaching, then tone . Look at a color wheel before you tone. What cancels what etc. Also**** when it's time yo bleach your regrowth, do not wait 2 months to do so. The sooner you bleach regrowth (Remember do not overlap onto previous bleached hair-- I keep saying that because it's SO important lol. The sooner you bleach regrowth, the less time it will take to process and the less damage you will have!! The heat from your scalp will make it lightning fast. Once you see your hair (the 1st regrowth bleaching) getting to the light orangeish-yellow stage, check it every couple minutes!! Do not use a towel to check progress and rough the hair up... be very gentle with it. Bleached hair is beyond fragine. Be prepared to spend $$ on hair care.... k18 and/or olaplex are a must!!! Do not put suave or Pantene on bleached hair. Don't

    Bleaching correctly is so important to me, when I was a baby my mum used to have her hair bleached regularly, but instead of just bleaching the roots the hairdresser used to do the roots and the mid lengths & ends which were already peroxide white, then dried it in with a hairdryer. The worst possible thing! My mum lost her hair and now has very very fine hair she’s insecure about. Fast forward 18 years & now I’m a hairdresser I feel it’s my duty to learn as much as possible about hair loss, scalp training etc. I wanna make her and anyone who feels the same as my mum to feel amazing & confident again 🤍

    10 volume lift 1 volume or go darker, 20 volume lift 1-2 volume, 30 volume lift 2-3 volumes.
    You can use lightning cream or bleach. The lighting cream is less harmful for your scalp.
    Browns go to red, dark blonde to orange and blonde to yellow.
    Bleach your lengths first then you apply it on our roots, your roots are going to bleach faster than the length, so when your lenghts are on the point that you want, bleach your roots.
    Don't wash your hair before bleaching and don't put oil before it too.
    Wear gloves and read the instructions. Section your hair, 4 parts is ok but try to part the front too, and in each section separate them in 2.
    Apply it on dry hair. Work fast, mix then apply.
    The timer part i did not understood...
    Take thin sections of hair and apply the bleach, if it's too thick it's found to be patchy.
    If you use a bag in your head check every ten minutes if it's not too warm, if it's spray some water on it. Also check the color and the strength of your hair if it's pulling too much rinse it off.
    It's better if you do a less volume leave for 30 minutes and if you need more, 30 minutes again.
    Don't comb your hair! Your hair is very fragile so don't comb it. Don't go outside, if you're bleaching your hair in a room make sure you can stay there for the whole process.
    Watch out for your eyes, bleach can cause permanent damage so if possible rinse your hair backwards, like in a salon. Don't use too hot or too cold water, your pores are going to close/open too fast that's not good, use lukewarm water.
    Be gentle with the shampoo, it's going to take longer but your going to have a better result.
    Do I have to use toner? Yes. Without it your hair will look ugly. The toner will not fix your orange hair or lighten your hair.
    for toner: MAXIMUM 10 vol.
    You cannot delute the 20 or 30 toner with water. Purple shampoo it's not a toner.

      Ummm....that 6 week undercover bleach job which never ever needed to take that long was done by a “professional”, See all of the press articles.
      There was also a lot of breakage which is why a full haircut had to happen (hair loaded with extensions in after photos/video if you know what to look for). A few weeks later, previous black areas started fading yellow, very slight hint orange after a few shampoos. True seasoned professionals go black to blond in one appointment. My friend did it in cosmetology school over 20 years ago. She knows how to do that.

      that honestly just depends. I know hairdressers that only needed 1 semester before getting a certification and police officers who needed a college degree. In areas where there aren't enough people applying to be police officers, they have to lower the requirements. Also, there's the police academy which you have to attend (except in a few situations like prior military experience) which can last 3 - 6 months (sometimes longer). On top of that, you have to get recertifications from CLEET every year so..I mean no, police officers are trained longer, even if they take you with just a high school diploma.

    I learned so much from your tips that I had the most amazing home hair dye experience ever! Thank you thank you!!! Went from long mousy brown with grey to gorgeous auburn color and cutting my dead ends. We're in lockdown and I was terrified of doing my very long hair myself. So I did the following of your tips which I never did before: Small SECTIONS (haha...) while coloring and cutting. Good haircutting scissors, and I only cut off very little at a time until I was happy with the length and everything was even. Dyed with a brush, checked the color every few minutes and did my roots in the very last 5 minutes. Also washed off the back section 10 minutes earlier, because I timed it seperately. Took me many hours because I was careful, but I am ecstatic with the difference all your tips made.
    Must say, I was just surprised that my roots still was a bit brighter even though it was on for just 5 minutes, never knew how quickly it takes on pigment. Anyway thanks a lot. Can you maybe do a tips video on coloring darker hair to another dark color as well?

    First: NO! I DON'T USE QUICK BLUE! I like what my hair does with bleach. It becomes a BEAUTIFUL copper shade. I did a fall-like streak in my hair. Slowly did bleach from tip up over 30 minutes. Ended up with a very pretty brown to caramel ombre.

It seemed a very good idea to go to the salon in December 2019 in hope of becoming a platinum beauty! My hairdresser talked me out of it, bless her, and I left with bangs.

I wanted to know what color your henna was to know if mine is too dark or not to discolor them further. Thanks for your answer.

    I am SOOOO glad I found your channel!! I wish I had found it before I lightened my hair myself. I used to bleach my hair myself for years and years before I started getting it done in a salon and was very successful using your exact advice! I recently asked my stylist to bleach my hair and forgot to leave it dirty before my appointment with her! OMG when she applied the bleach to my head my scalp was on fire, so much so that I had blisters all over it for weeks afterwards, even though she washed it out as quickly as she could (approx. 25 minutes into the process). She then had to add a darker color to my hair to try to even it back out. I have allowed my scalp to heal and have been very careful with it ever since that appointment. I decided to lighten it myself with ION Color Brilliance High Lift Ash Blonde using 40 volume developer and ION Absolute Perfection Booster Step 1, from Sally Beauty Supply. I followed that application with ION Color Brilliance Crème Toner (Snow Cap) using 20 volume developer. After the processes were complete I used Absolute Perfection Color Sealer Step 2. I did not achieve the desired blonde that I wanted and now I will wait a week or so and use the bleach instead. I should have just used that to begin with instead of using a dye over dyed hair. I was afraid to bleach it because of the damage from the salon and opted for a lightening color instead. I realize now that the reason it went so poorly the last time was because I had washed my hair the previous day! And I know better than to do that, I just went brain dead I suppose. I hadn't bleached my hair in a long time and completely forgot about leaving it dirty to protect my scalp!

    Why not go to the hairdresser? Of course it costs money. But you should be worth that to yourself, your health and your hair.
    And if you can't afford fancy colors, then the natural hair color and a nice haircut is still better than running around with a screaming squeaky color and destroyed shag.

I also have 2 different colors: my dark brunette overgrowth and my lengths are RED. I was trying to be ginger without bleaching (sounds so dumb after watching your videos lol) the first attempts made me a dark redhead and it looked nice but wasn't what I wanted. I have curly hair and don't want to ruin my textured hair but now I'm not sure what to do because I had a bad experience at a salon a while ago and had to cut my hair and it took me 8 years to grow back and for my curls to come back 😔 ... I live in a big city now so hopefully there are better salons here. Money is not a problem because so far I've spent the same amount trying to achieve ginger at home and being disappointed at the end.

    Soooo happy your video came up on my RUclips feed!!! I bleached my hair 7 years ago in stages, bleaching every 2 weeks until I got light blonde. I did damage of course, but it didnt fall out. I have worked hard to educate myself as much as possible about bleaching. Your video is the best!!! I do my roots with a cream bleach and 25 developer in thin sections working with a brush, sectioning from the back 1st as you demonstrate. I check the clock when I start applying, and it takes me about 20 minutes. I check and rinse before an hour is up. Olaplex is a BIG help. Naturally I have white/grey hair in the bang area (I'm old) and the rest is a natural level 5 probably. My hair is platinum blonde now , soft and healthy. I trim the ends a little after every time I bleach the roots. I have a 3-way big mirror in the bathroom and try hard to not get the bleach on the already lightened hair. There are so many bleach fails on youtube. If you're going to do this, you gotta do it right! Otherwise you'll regret it for years!!!
    I wish you all the best.

    I MUST share this with everyone who wants to alter their hair....I’ve tried to do my own blond, low and behold, my hair was a really pretty au natural SOFT DARK BLACK color USING BLOND BOX COLORS! Hey, my BFF and I were JUST OUT of the 4TH GRADE doing each other’s hair, and ending up with a BRIGHT neon pumpkin color hair 7 different times THROUGHOUT summer break!
    I was crying my eyes out during the day, and, crying myself to sleep every single night because of the horrible results! My once virgin hair was falling out, it was so dry and brittle, but our “going into 5TH GRADE MENTALITY” we did it AGAIN! OHHH the PAIN!! My mom was so upset with me, but a couple hours later, we looked into the mirror together and she started to laugh, and I HAD to laugh with her!
    My mother contacted HER BFF that was a master at color, owning her own Hair Salon, she asked me if I really wanted to do blond, and that was a BIG NO WAY, and she colored my hair EXACTLY as my natural soft black. I NEVER altered my hair ever again until, 1994, that’s when I found an AMAZING Hair Stylist and she did my blond for the very first time, and it turned out ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS for at least 16 years! Now, she’s gone...
    Well, I colored my hair back to soft black due to the fact that my natural color was all grown out (but no silvery gray yet) with barely less than 1/4 inch of my blond, hair that was left. NOW I have this really cool looking BRIGHT SUPER SUPER SILVER SILVER STREAKS up on top of my head, and I also have a 1/4” thick silver streak that has grown into my front hair calick and I think it looks pretty.
    Im embracing 55 now, and I know a lot of women aren’t willing NOR ready to sport ANY gray silver hair. NOW,,, I’ve been searching for a stylist that can throw full foils and able to color really REALLY teeny tiny thin BRIGHT silver color foils, that way it’ll look super silvery and BRIGHT!!! I’m hoping that it will look pretty awesome!!
    I personally cannot wait until I can add the bright silvery foils with my dark hair, then I’ll have my stylist add like a partial foil of just a WHITE-ISH blond color with NO brass nor orange and lemon. I’m fortunate enough that my hair is easy to lift.
    Has anyone here added thin silvery foils and/or foil in white-ISH blond to their SOFT DARK BLACK HAIR if so, are you happy with them?

      I'm not a professional licensed hair dresser but I have self studied the science of colouring and how to colour correct when you bleach it and then dye it you want to change the colour so you need a white base when you can't get blue out of the hair with bleach to prevent damage,best way is to wash it until its a very pale blue, then use colour remover but for only 20-30 minutes depending on how dark the blue really is, if the blue has green in it or have dyed it green previously it may show up even when removing the colour as the pigment holders like to cling onto that colour, so adding a colour opposite of the colour wheel you can counter that colour correcting the shade to a desired blonde base to work with for when you want to dye your a different colour without any patching

I let the bleach set for 30 mins and was SHOCKED my hair was a pale blonde (blinks 😳) my scalp felt great. I rinsed it out, dried my hair and reapplied bleach. Let it sit for 30 mins and my hair was ICY 🥶 when I was done. Charcolite shampoo and conditioner were used afterwards. Hair feels soft, looks white and only took 1 hour to do. No blisters or breaking hair. Yeah! Thank you so much for this video. I’ve seen so many ridiculous videos about bleaching but never just the facts based on science. Repeating: Purple shampoo is not a toner 😋. Thanks Hair Buddha.
