Want This Hair

[Sar]

I naturally have dark blonde hair but had it dyed profesionally a really dark brown with bright red chunks.I have re-dyed my roots quite a few times at home and gone over the red chunks so they're not very bright anymore. I want to get hair like this (pics below) but I wouldnt know what to ask for and how I would keep re-doing my roots with both colours by myself? Also is there any decent products to get my hair in good condition from all my re-dying?

If you could answer this then thanks so much in advance chicks xx

I would go to a salon with that pic printed out and say, do this! I wouldnt try that myself if I were you...at least the first time. For super damaged hair I like Aussie Three Minute Miracle Deeeeep. Works great, smells great!

O00o0o ok thank u Ill check it out!! Yeah I was gonna get it done at a salon i just meant when i needed to re-dye my roots you think it would be a hard thing to do? xxxxx

Well, Im not sure...I myself have dabbled a lot in home hair coloring, and I just think that a look like that is so high-maintenance that it would be best to have a stylist do it. Im just not sure how well you could touch up the roots yourself. At least with a look like that, roots look fine (IMHO). Anyways, good luck again!

it looks like it would be a little difficult to maintain on your own, because it is two seperate colors. good luck!

Ouu I love that hair too. I like the style a lot but the highlights I dont think I can maintain. I think you should go to the salon and have them do it if your highlights starts to grow out.

Yeah I think roots look fine if they were dark like hers would be if she grew it out but mine would be a blondey colour so i thought i could just re-dye my roots with like a darker colour until it got maybe an inch or two down my hair then i could re-get the blonde done profesionally?

redying roots on things like that aren't too difficult. it's just veryyy tedious and time consuming because you have to seperate the two colours and wrap one in foil while you root the other ;] ask yor hairdresser how to do it, it's kind of hard to explain but i'm sur they can tell you how to do it ;]

lol yeah i tried dying blonde bits on the underneath of my hair, the foil wouldnt stay in place and i had to leave the blonde on for extra long because i had dark hair dye there and then when i had finished you could hardly notice the blonde i was like rawrrr~! but i think this would be easier because it would only be roots on the top. I love your av pic your so pretty.

With highlights it's hard to retouch them. You'll just have to get it done at the salon and as THE ANTHEM said just ask you stylist how you should retouch them after you get it done.

I agree. Actually with this kind of dye job I would not even consider doing the roots at home. It's really hard to do on your own. I had my hair like this a few years ago and even though I had managed to get the blonde I had a problem doing the blonde and brown.
As for damaged hair. Oil treatments! I also like to take any deep conditioning treatment and leave it on while I clean the house. So average time I leave the conditioner in is about 2hrs. When I had very damaged hair this always worked great. I did it about once a week. Also try to find a deep conditioner that has protein in it. Redken has some great products for the hair. A few I rec: Anti-Snap, Cat Treatment, Deep Fuel, & Rescue Force. All part of their Extreme line. (dark blue bottles)

Hey whats the lipgloss shes wearing? Looks like concealer but I think it looks nice.

Well..... good luck! Because if you want to be pale like that, it will be really hard to remove all the red!
