White hair looks cool, but causes too much damage.  Wigs are easier ^_^ .  Just be careful with white wigs, because the ones labelled shade 60 are actually the silvery-white of old lady hair.  That's not what I'm looking for. . . have to find a true white instead. . .

More awesome than a manatee!

Hm... I don't know if it's possible to have a "white dye", per se. It's difficult to make a product that will deposit a white pigment evenly on the hair strand. I hope you are able to decide on what to do about the bleach.

SamuraiHero, have you tried that temporary streak stuff? Or maybe the kind that comes in a spray can? I used to see middle school kids use that stuff all the time. It comes in all sorts of colors, perhaps even white.

The unregistered guest actually has hair about chin-length. Less damage is done to short hair. I personally will remain heat-free chemical-free as I always have.

my mom's hair dresser bleached her hair three time in a row to get the black out, and it went from jet black to light brown. her hairs really damaged and dry and frizzy. but when she straightens it (with a flat iron), it looks all soft and shiny. If you're going to bleach your hair, i recommend you to use a really good hair straightener to keep your hair from looking dry.

Well, I really wouldn't recommend you bleaching your hair white.  Bleaching your hair completely destroys the internal makeup of your hair and if you do not have strong and healthy hair to begin with it could even wind up burning your hair off.  I wouldn't risk it SS.  If you look at these celebrities with their bleached white hair you have to realize that most, if not ALL of them are wearing hair extensions because the damage from the constant bleaching makes it impossible to grow your hair out any longer than the top of your shoulders....the hair just keeps breaking.

Seriously think this out before you do it.

I think that's obvious...I already have salon that I usually go to.

Well, I don't really want to take a big risk of having dry looking hair, because then I would have dry hair for a long time till it grows out and gets trimmed. Man, I never knew it was such a big deal just to change the color of your hair.

I feel the need to say here, don't use bleach like your mother keeps in the bathroom, this bleach is not for hair.  I would suggest going to a salon to get it done by a pro.

Not necessarily "more", but maybe more times.

More bleaching = more damage.

but more bleaching = whiter hair.

Your choice. It's a risk you'd have to take if you want white hair.

You said my hair is short, this considered short? And godess, that's my hair color, black. By the way, I'm waiting for my bangs to reach my chin, and the side hair 2-3 inches longer. The side hair was shortened last time I went to a salon. too bad. When I say side hair, I mean the hair in the front of my ears. I don't want the hair covering my ears to be too long.

Hi, SS. Yes...bleaching can make your hair very dry! Especially if you have far to go and need a lot of bleach (if your hair is dark). If you really want your hair all the way white, it will almost certainly be dry. I guess it's a trade-off. You could try it if you really want white hair...you just have to be ready for the dryness.

What color is your hair now?

No, because you want white hair, and you're an artist so you know white isn't actually a color.

Dye = adding a color different than your natural color

You would only bleach, then tone.

Your hair is short so it won't be that dry, as long as you condition your hair every time you shampoo. Long hair takes more damage from chemicals than short hair does.

And besides, dye makes your hair drier anyway. If you skip the dye and just use a toner, then you're saving yourself one step of damage.

So I really actually don't dye my hair? And would my hair quality be all dry?

Yes.. Remove your natural hair color by using a bleaching agent. But don't bleach again. Some people bleach and bleach until their hair is white. This will damage hair.

Instead, bleach ONCE, then use a toner to cancel out the remaining yellowish-ness. Toner is usually violet, and it cancels out yellow because it's opposite on the color wheel.
