black box dye to blonde!

2025/9/1 Edited to

... Read moreTransitioning from black box dye to blonde hair is definitely a process that requires patience, care, and the right products. As shared in the article, the use of two rounds of color fix including bleaching with a long cream bleach and 20 volume developer sets a strong base for lightening hair gradually without excessive damage. Using Wella T18 toner afterwards is essential to neutralize unwanted brassy or yellow hues, achieving that beautiful clean blonde shade. It's important to note how the author focused on hair health throughout the process. Chopping off damaged ends before bleaching helped remove already weakened hair, and using blue shampoo after bleaching sessions serves to maintain tone and prevent brassiness. Deep conditioning masks are highly recommended, as bleaching can strip moisture, leaving hair prone to breakage and dryness. Additionally, incorporating reparative treatments like the K18 oil and mask contributes to restoring strength and elasticity to chemically processed hair. For anyone considering the transition from black to blonde, it's vital to understand that this transformation can stress hair significantly. Taking precautions by spacing out bleaching sessions, committing to hair repair routines, and regularly trimming damaged sections will enhance results and keep hair healthier. Consulting a professional colorist can also minimize risks. Overall, while transforming dark dyed hair to blonde is ambitious, with the right approach and dedication to hair care, the final look can be stunning and rewarding.

Black girls and blonde hair!!!
Find your blonde and have fun!!! This hair was 613 until I toned it with the hot water method. The yellow 613 doesn’t compliment my skin so it’s always good to find the blonde that matches your undertones. 👩🏾‍🦳🧑🏽‍🦳👱🏾‍♀️ #blondeblackgirl #613blonde #blondeblack #blackgirlhaircolor #blondew
