QuoteReplyTopic: Blond first but then the orange came Posted: December 11 2005 at 4:33pm
So I bleached my hair and it was cool. Then after a while I colored my
roots and they turned blond. Great. After another while was time to do
roots again and now they turned a pale orange.
Why now? Why the second time?
Does this mean for my next time I should do it differently with a different shade?
I was soo hoping my roots would become the same blond I had since before.

I'm thinking of getting a blonde with ash in it to get the orange out. A slight darker blond since it so blond.
The only thing is when my roots show later again that would mean first
a bleach and then a ash blonde. I really don't want to do two things
but just one. How can I prevent doing two?
How dark is your natural hair color? If its dark blond and no
darker you may be able to get away with just using a higher lift blonde
with a green base to counter orange...be aware that sometimes ash is
what they call violet base on blondes, you don't want violet, you need
green to counter the orange that comes out). If your natural
color is darker than that, I don't know, doing it more than once may be
necessary, or using bleach, then a violet based blonde (to counter the
yellow after bleach, you'd have no orange left then).
Or maybe doing it more frequently so you don't see as big a difference
(every 2-3 weeks) would get the roots you just did 2 weeks ago done
without you having to do it twice in a row.

I'm not sure what they mean by putting "golden" and "ash" in the same
title...ash is supposed to be the opposite of gold. If it has a
violet base it will likely just make them more orange, if its green,
then you'll get less orange. If your natural color is so dark,
you will probably have to always bleach your roots before dyeing.
(It might not have shown up as much the first time because your roots
were much shorter in the beginning, so just not as noticeable?
Guessing here).

If its breaking off, be VERY careful with it. Don't put any more
chemicals on your length. If you need to bleach the roots, be
careful to get it only on the roots and not on the rest of the hair
(overlap as little onto the already done hair as you can), and always
test strand first to make sure it won't break off at the ends of the
roots.
