Is colouring blonde hair with an ash brown a safe thing to do, I sometimes hear people saying adding ash can go green. Thanks

What color blonde hair?  Think of the color wheel.  If you add ash which is often blue to yellow hair, you'll get green hair.

If u do color it yourself.I'd just foil it with blonde chunks.All U do is get the foil at Sally's, then get the bleach u like.It has directions on the box on how to foil it.Make sure u get the foil that has the board with it.The board is the thing u put on your hair to push against the head & then put the foil on it & use a highlighting brush to apply the bleach.Make sure u get someone that knows how to foil to show u how to do this first.I love foiling my hair.It looks natural.I use Basic White bleach.I hope I explained this ok.I'm better at showing, than telling how to do things.Good luck!

If u do, do it at home.Then don't use an ash color.Since u have some blonde in it.It could turn green where the blonde is.What skin tone do u have?I like warm tones better.Cuz ash colors tend to look dull.Trust me u would get bored with an ash color real fast.I'll be back to help.I don't wanna see u turn it to a gree color.

I hate any colours with gold or red I dont know what my skin tone is, my face is quite brown in summer. If I use a box colour it should be safe enough?
