Finally went blonde

I been trying to dye my hair for the longest. A few stylists i found in Houston was tryna charge me like I’m paying for a car note 😭 my hair was dark brown before this. I just wanted a new color with my ends cut & this one lady charged me $430. Like what!? I recently flew to ATL & found this lady name Genesis, shes Dominican. Baby she be doin her THANG! She got me right with my new hair color 😍 this is her instagram: @genesisdomicansalon she only charged me $170 which was a huge different than what i was being charged in Houston

... Read moreOkay, so I know a lot of you might be looking into achieving a gorgeous blonde at home, maybe even eyeing specific shades like Garnier 80 Medium Natural Blonde. I totally get it – the idea of a DIY transformation is tempting, especially when salon prices can be wild! I've been there, thinking about trying it myself to save some cash after getting quoted $430 in Houston. But let me tell you, my personal experience taught me that for a significant change, especially going from dark brown to blonde, a professional stylist can make all the difference. While box dyes like Garnier 80 can work wonders for some, especially if you're just refreshing a similar shade or going a couple of levels lighter, achieving a truly even, healthy-looking medium natural blonde from scratch, without banding or damage, is a whole different ball game. That's why finding Genesis in Atlanta was a game-changer for me. She understood exactly what my hair needed and got me to my dream blonde for just $170. When you're aiming for a specific tone, like a medium natural blonde, a stylist can custom-mix colors, assess your hair's porosity, and apply it expertly to ensure an even lift and tone. They can also prevent common issues like brassiness or patchiness that often happen with home dyeing, especially on darker hair. If you're considering going blonde, whether it's a medium natural blonde or something else, really weigh your options. For my big transformation, the salon was definitely the way to go. And if you're in the ATL area, you seriously need to TAP IN WIT MY GIRL Genesis at @genesisdomicansalon. She's a wizard! She can help you achieve that perfect medium natural blonde or whatever shade you're dreaming of, safely and beautifully. Don't underestimate the value of a professional touch for that perfect blonde finish! Plus, a good stylist will also give you tips on how to maintain your new blonde, keeping it vibrant and healthy for longer.

I’m no hairstylist don’t get me wrong. Here’s what I’ve been doing for years when I regret going dark. When bleaching do not leave it on for too long!! It can be a pale yellow or even a butter like color, that’s what I’ve noticed looks nicer and works for my specific hair type. #darkhairtr

How I Went From This….
There’s a huge difference in what I did and the results are huge. I hate to say this but I did change a lot about me so a lot is unnatural! 1. Got highlights. I think I look so much better with blonde hair. 2. Nails. I get dip nails now almost every other week. It’s so bad for my nails tbh. 3
