Changing My Hair :)

Hey guys, today i have quite a different post for you. So basically i wanted to change my hair colour seeing as i have had pink hair for quite a long time so i wanted something different. I will include some pictures of before and after and also some pictures whilst i was in the process of doing my hair. I just want to apologise for the posts that i have done this past week, i have had a lot of overtime at work because of the holidays and i haven't had any time to write posts so i have been uploading pre-written posts (reviews). Hopefully i will start getting more time to write better posts :)

So first off i started like this -

As i wanted to go a light purple colour and i had bright pink hair i had to bleach my hair first. I used the Total Bleach by Bleach London.  I applied this all over my hair starting at the back and working my way through. I did have a bit of a dilemma when i was bleaching my hair because i actually ran out of bleach with around 1/4 of my hair left to do so my mum ended up running to boots for me haha..thanks mum. 

Once the bleach was on i left it for around 30 - 40 minuets and then washed it all of with warm water and applied the conditioner that comes within the kit. After it was all washed off i then went in with the White Toner also by Bleach London. I used this to take all the yellow tones out of my hair, you will be able to see it in the picture above.

After i applied this i left it on around 25 minuets and then washed it off. Next i mixed up my colour that i wanted to go, i used Crazy Color in Lavender and a little of the Lilac colour i had left over and a little of white conditioner just to dilute it. you can see what colour it ended up when i mixed it below. I only used two bottles of lavender and half a bottle of lilac.

 I applied this everywhere and left it on for around 45 minuets and then washed it off and conditioned my hair. I did have another problem with doing my hair. The dye didn't take to the roots on the top of my head and it just ended up a silver colour but i couldn't re-do it as it was new years eve and i had to be at a party within the next hour so i just left it. The next day i redyed it using the 2 bottles of left over lavender colour and a bit of conditioner and applied it to my hair again and i left it on for just over an hour. Again the rest of my hair took perfectly but the roots on my head didn't but the dye did tint it a bit so it wasn't as bad as before. 


You cant actually tell on these pictures that the roots are lighter because i dye my hair when it is in a middle parting and then when i bring my fringe over you can only see the purple. 
(sorry about the picture on the right, its the only picture i have with my hair done and it was taken after a night out...oops) 





Hope you all liked this post and thanks for reading :)

  1. I found with the paler shades like lilac and lavendar, mixing them with conditioner just failed them! I also found that if I dyed my hair the day of bleaching it never worked and I had to wait at least 1 day or after it's first wash it was more receptive!

    1. Yeah, im alright bleaching it and dying it the same day because it has worked amazingly before and gone exactly how i wanted it but when i tried lilac on its own (crazy colour) without conditioner it just didn't go on at all so i don't know if the lavender one is the same haha but it doesn't look that bad and i can get away with it ahah xx
