We know. The temptation to make your hair blonde, and moreover platinum, is great. If you have a broken mind, here are some things to know in advance:
1. Go to the salon
There are many beauty treatments you can do at home, but platinum hair should definitely be left to a professional. This is a change that will take care, especially if you are brunette and the change will be drastic.
2. There will be damage
In any case when it comes to color lightening, especially for platinum, there is a risk of damage and "dryness" of the hair. Even if your hairdresser uses the safest dye, there will still be some damage to the hair. How much, it depends on the current condition of the hair and how you care for it afterwards.
3. Likely not to be realized within the first time
Especially for brunettes, there is no way to turn hair into platinum blonde from the first time. The (healthy) change is usually gradual, but for this you should consult your hairdresser, depending on your current color.
4. The texture / quality of your hair will change
Depending on your original hair and how often you wash them, the quality of the hair may vary. Often, curly hair becomes straighter because your strands lose elasticity and dry out. On the other hand, straight hair can look more voluminous because the hair cuticles are “broken” by the dyes.
5. The platinum blonde does * a lot * of maintenance
Expect to add 30 minutes to your breakfast routine, thanks to new products you may need to use. Moreover, when you see that you will get the darkest root, after a few weeks, you will have to leave the hairdresser's next schedule.
However, remember that they are just hair. Sure, that platinum blonde wants engagement, but hair grows back. Have fun with the changes!
