Go blonde

“For my brunette babes out there, blonde does not come easy. It takes a lot of time and money to keep it up, but the results can be transformative. If you are starting out with very dark hair, it is better to lighten your hair through multiple sessions at the salon. Going too light too soon could damage your hair. Take your time and don’t rush — this will give you the best results. I was blonde for about a year and didn’t reach my goal color until about six months in.”

“I learned pretty quickly that you have to take care of your hair after it’s been bleached. I was worried that my hair would never feel the same, and in a way that was true. My hair texture was a bit dryer and required more moisture. But I used leave-in conditioners and color protectant products to keep my hair soft and the color vibrant.”
