Getting
the perfect blond hue can be a bit of a struggle. No matter how many
photos of Carrie Underwood you flash before your stylist, there's
always a 50/50 chance your hair will come out looking brassy,
bleached, bright yellow, or just plain fake.
The
question is!!!!
What
it takes to get the perfect blonde hair colour -- and you should
know! Here's the 10 things you need to know before going blonde.
1. WHAT IS YOUR BLOND BUDGET?
Going blonde requires maintenance. If you are going to do it, make sure you can afford the upkeep every four to 12 weeks, depending on the desired blondness and your existing natural colour.
2. BE
AWARE OF YOUR NATURAL LEVEL OF COLOR
Imagine
hair colour range to be from one to 12, one being the darkest level
of black and twelve the lightest blond. It may be a long time before
you see your natural hair color again or even remember it. It is rare
that anyone over the age of 16 actually has a natural level lighter
than a seven.
3. BE
READY TO UPGRADE AND CHANGE YOUR SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER ROUTINE
Typically,
going blonde requires higher levels of ammonia or bleaching products.
You will notice a texture change in your hair that most likely will
require less shampooing and more conditioning. I recommend finding a
gentler sulphate free shampoo and a reconstructive treatment mask.

4. FIND
A BLOND COLOUR SPECIALIST
Be
on the lookout for someone whose colour you admire. Approach them and
inquire "Who does your colour?" Don't be afraid to ask
someone that same question whose colour you think is hideous, so you
know where not to go. If your colorist pulls out a crochet hook and a
plastic cap, reschedule with someone else.
5. KNOW
HOW BLOND YOU WANT TO GO
There
are many different shades of blonde to choose from. Be aware of cool
and warm shades and which one compliments your skin best. Bring
pictures of blondes you like (and even you don't like) to your
colorist. Make sure they are realistic and not in black or white.
Keep in mind, blondes will look different depending on the
surrounding light.
6. BE
READY FOR A MAKEUP CHANGE
Your
hair colour is the frame for your face. Going blonde will directly
affect your current shade of lipstick, which most likely will need to
change. Visit a near by make up counter directly after your blonde
session and get some make up tips from someone who has never seen you
before.
7. KNOW
IF YOU NEED HIGHLIGHTS, A SINGLE PROCESS OR BOTH
If
you are a level seven or above, you most likely can become a blonde
with highlights only. Any darker and you may require a single
process, even a base breaker (which is bumping up your natural colour
slightly one level) or both if you are a level five or lower. You
will need to learn this lingo to ensure your future blonde
appointments are scheduled with the appropriate time needed.
8. ASK
FOR A GLAZE
After
going blonde, a glaze is a non peroxide treatment with sheer shade
options that help achieve that perfect blonde tone and seal in an
extra four to six weeks of shine.
9. BE
READY NOT TO BE TAKEN AS SERIOUSLY
Blondes
are stereotyped as intellectually handicapped. Be prepared to hear
some stupid blonde jokes from some idiots.
10. KNOW
THE REASON YOU ARE GOING BLONDE
Is
it because you heard blondes have more fun and you're bored or maybe
you spotted your spouse eyeballing up a blonde bimbo? Either way,
have fun with it! Hair colour is the easiest thing you can do to
dramatically change your appearance without going under the knife.
