Please, please, please get it professionally done. box color may look appeasing with it's low price but you will have such better results and receive far more compliments when you get it done by professionals. Box Color is horrible for your hair.
2. Condition. Condition. Condition.
Going blond requires chemicals that can be damaging to your hair but using a deep conditioner will keep your hair healthy. Some great Deep Conditioners recommended by stylist at the Hair Color Salon are Derm Organic Masque, TIGI Serious Conditioner, and Pureology Deep Conditioner NanoWorks.
The Hair Color Salon offers each of the these conditioners for a deep conditioning in salon treatment. But if you live no where near Georgia here are some at home tips:
*Shampoo hair like usual then towel dry hair slightly. (There should be some dampness to your hair)
*Apply Deep conditioner and comb through hair using a wide tooth comb.
*Dampen a towel and throw it in the microwave for about 30 seconds or until it's nice and toasty. be careful the towel may be hot.
*Wrap the towel around your head and find something to do for 30 minutes or more.
* When your ready rinse with cold water and blow dry your hair on the cold setting for your hairdryer.
* Now enjoy your hair.
3. Be prepared for a shock. Going from a darker shade to a dramatically lighter one or vise verse, takes time to adjust. If you're not feeling the look give yourself a few days and see where you find yourself.
