Bleaching my hair to platinum...

[MissLena15]

south korean pride :)

[jaydek2009]

South Korea ....LUCKY!! XD....

[Laurenisthejoker]

Use Bblonde, it makes black hair white :)

[NorwayAMVs]

@Laurenisthejoker LIES, IT TURNED MY HAIR ORANGE!

[kikithefoxnurse]

try getting bleach in us or a really good kind it pb cost 30 if u go to the store but then u got shipping and u should twist ur hair and then clip them

[LarissaNicole1]

:) i liked watching this. your so like happy lol

[candeelion]

I got those redken products from a blog/store called Killerstrands. I am sure that someone on eBay likely sells them although some companies are pretty good about trying to shut down any sellers that sell to non-professionals.

[harnamjij1]

hey....help where do you purchase redken colors....

[chandelle246]

Hey, Im in the process of bleaching my hair as well.

Just a tip. Leave Olive oil on your hair for 1 full day. sleep with a plastic bag over your head if youre worried about the oil on your bed.

Olive oil conditions the hair and lets the colour take alot better.

Italians used  it which is why their hair is SUPER shiny.

Good Luck :D

[forloveellie]

i have black dye hair that its kinda faded so i was wondering should i get a color remover then bleach it??

[candeelion]

@forloveellie If you want to get rid of the black then yes I would recommend a color remover. it is really hard to get a good one without a beauty license though. There's one called color zap but I never had great luck with it.

[forloveellie]

@candeelion i will try it since i use one and only color fix it worked but when i redye my hair it turned black again -_-

[candeelion]

Sorry to the comments I missed asking for help! I'll answer you faster if you send me a message. Sorry again. Thanks for watching.

[Legenderella]

I want to bleach my hair from very dark brown, so that when I colour it Light brown the colour can show up?

So is colouring your hair on the same day as bleaching safe?

[rachael13267]

@Legenderella you should wait like a week to let the hair relax, and deep condition it(:

[candeelion]

@Legenderella I bleach and dye on the same day all the time. I really recommend a strand test when doing drastic things. You never know how your hair may react and once you get into it - it could be too late. And yes deep conditioning is KEY!

[cuttiek34]

I need help...can we chat asap?

[deadfairytales]

haha i'm a hairdresser. and watching you is just adorable :3 you are really prepared for this bleaching ! good luck with future bleaches or dyes. xx 

[sexysalsa67]

so much prettier brown! blonde isn't everything!

[candeelion]

@sexysalsa67 I guess its to each his own but I really don't like either of the colors in this video. I don't think I ever mentioned that blonde is everything but I like to mix it up for sure.

[CrazyGal4Life]

hey i was born in South Korea :3

[candeelion]

@CrazyGal4Life I'm hoping to go back soon =)

[Delacourtesan]

you should have done a slow bleach 20vol on your roots then i on the ends

[candeelion]

@Delacourtesan ooh 20 volume doesn't work on my roots been doing it for years and my hair is super resistant - even with the heat from being close to the scalp.

[Green2315]

I bleached my hair, only the bottom part and it's blonde, the top is brown, it's really nice.

// I've got a brass color in my hair too but it's pretty and I'm gonna make my hair in more blonde, I know it's a bad Idea after bleaching but I want it like.. WHITE

is it a bad idea to dye bleached hair after a few months?

[candeelion]

@Green2315 sorry I just got around to looking at comments. I want mine white too - well I did anyway but wasn't able to achieve it as I didn't want it to be white and frizzy. you wouldn't dye your hair white you would bleach it as bleaching removes color and dye adds. If it's been a few months you should have an issue either bleaching or dying.

[yayableu]

you're really brave to have done it yourself away from home home too. awesome. thanks!!!

[candeelion]

@yayableu thanks (sun)

[rikku986]

How long would you have to keep in like the boxed bleach? so it gets pretty light.

Ahh Im south korean :D What were you doing there anyway?

[candeelion]

@rikku986 any boxes that you get you should follow directions unless you have a lot of experience with doing your own hair. I think most kits contain 20 volume developer and its the strongest for the 1st 20 minutes - 30 volume for 30 min and 40 volume for 40 minutes. Bleaches will lighten after those time frames but it slows down soooo much. When I use 40 volume and bleach more than once in a setting - I do 40 minutes on the first bleach - rinse - dry to damp then bleach again

[SAMMbatMan]

i did it in 2 hours :P 40voume bleach ;) and my hair was pretty dark first, medium brown :L

[SAMMbatMan]

@SAMMbatMan volume*

[BayBayLips91]

omg yea, i shouldve got that color remover too. cuz my hair is naturally brown and i died it to a chocolate brown and then i wanted platinum and went to some lady at a hair place to bleech it but it took forever and like 1/2 an inch had to be cut off cuz it fried the ends... but its all good hairs all platinum now n still has that healthy feel to it

[anniepoonanie]

You need a toner!!! :)

[girl123interrupted]

Exactly. I am the biggest fan of toner. Also, boxed color doesn't give you the lift she wants for the 'Gwen Steffani' platinum look!

[elena1910]

hii i completly understand uu when u say u didnt have the resources, im in taiwan and it has been a nightmare trying to explain the ladyes in the shop about my hair becoming orange blablabla, actually i bleached my hair and bought an hairdye that i'venever see the name before, and i dont want to be blonde i just wanted from black to like a chestnut brown but the hair dye was #47 and my bleached hair just became more blonde!! no brown! what do u think might happen?? why the "toner" failed :(

[OhioXAngel93]

I actually did get a platinum blonde in one sitting overnight at home lol but it fried my hair so i couldnt use a straightener on it and it took about an hour but it was really pretty and it only took about a month to restrengthen my hair

[candeelion]

Yeah - you CAN do it faster but everyone's hair is different. Not everyone can do the exact same thing.

[TotallyFabtablous121]

blonde dosent go with you DX

[candeelion]

I was in Korea - I didn't have the resources you'd have in another country. This is not the shade of blond I have noe,

[LozzaViolin]

it is sooo yellow... you need to bleach closer together! no offence but it looks bad

[13BarbieeDoll13]

i havee blackk Hairr.

i Wantt Blonde Hairr. . .

Isz Thisz a badd ideaa?.

[candeelion]

I wasn't in Korea but definitely do now :)

[pimpofvegas]

you have nice teeth

[candeelion]

Thank you :)

[ArrianBlood]

Yes, cause you don't smoke..!

[ShutterBug94]

IT's not hard to bleach your hair from home. I personally two tone my hair and it's so not difficult. Just takes a little time to learn. Plus saves so much money! Great job here! Love the hair (:

Totally agree, never too old to be blonde!

[hollyernst1985]

getting ur hair blonde the way u want its hard so i go to a salon plus dont rely on box color and demi dyes dont lighten it just deposits color ur better off going to the salon

[candeelion]

I don't use box color - the demi was a toner I wanted it to deposit - it's white blond now - this video is about a year old.

[hollyernst1985]

oh ok oops sorry

[iReviewx3]

When you go to the salon, does it usually come out platinum blonde or is it orangey like box colors seem to be?

[hollyernst1985]

it comes out blonde but i use a toner called shimmer lights for blonde and silver hair and it makes it white

[viola89]

is it a toner or shampoo? its the purple shampoo rite? so i just needa bleached my hair n then use the shampoo n the yellow undertone will be gone rite?

[girl123interrupted]

Well, in my experience I have to tone to remove the yellow. If you go to Sally's the lady working there will help you pick one out that works for you, there are like 20. I do love the bluing shampoo, it basically keeps up what the toner removed but I wouldn't use it in place of a toner. :)

I hope this helps<3

peace

[pushzgas]

Whenever I bleached my hair, I never really bothered separating it. Just mixed it all in and used a comb to even it all out. It always came out great. My hair was maybe 7 inches longer than yours, I quit though ;( At one time I thought dark brown was better than blonde! :( :(

[kCruz1O]

When you put the clips in, its better to twist your hair almost into a bun and clip the tip of the hair to your head. (scalp) WAY easier.

[candeelion]

Thanks I'll try that!

[lucidfail]

i always got like orange lol. my hair is completely fried because i dyed it  a diff color every two weeks lol blue, pink, black, brown, purple you name it. i can never get it prep blonde tho lol

[LovelyLady1090]

wow the toner made it look fabulous. have you ever tried clairol stage 7 lighteners? you can get them at sally's, they are specifically made for going up 8-10 levels, and i have a level 4, and it brought my hair to a level 8 or 9 after 3 bleaches. and it also didn't suck the moisture out of my hair. which was so shocking for me.

[Jessicart]

what Volume did you use with the bleach? my natural hair is a lvl 7 and I can get away with using 30vol and only doing one application and it's platinum blonde. Good vid though, I didn't know you could suction cup mirrors

[bebzbeauty]

Your hair is still yellow, its not platinum at all!!!!

[candeelion]

I know - the point of the video was more to show that Platinum doesn't happen quickly all the time. In my newer videos you'll see that it is much more platinum now.

[Littlemissgemma]

she said "its not all the way done"

[seemenowudont]

lmao. ur in korea?

[LadyBritonWhite]

its soooo pretty at the end

[Silverfang797]

you look H.......O.........T =)

[Turkmenquizi]

it isn´t platinum now !

[Pluffeh]

Okay, my hair is dark brown with a red tint in. I want to bleach it platinum blond. A hairstylist told me it would take 3 applications, from brown to coper, to orange/yellow then to white... It would cost $200 unfortunately. If I can get my mom to let me do it myself for cheaper, how much would the product you used cost and would other bleach work as effectively? Would some of my hair fall out due to damage of so much bleaching? And I'm so jealous because you live in Korea..

[papashayyy]

I know you have probably asked someone before and they are going to have the same answer as i am right now. But i cant stress enough that if you find yourself asking other if its a good idea to bleach your hair yourself, it probably isnt. Considering that your hair is a dark brown. i went to my hair salon and she highlighted my hair, and then i went back 3 more times, and by the end my hair was fully blonde. After that you can bleach your hair if you want and it will only take one time.

[candeelion]

Good advice for sure BUT to everyone out there don't think that just because you go to a salon doesn't mean you will get what you want. The reason I started doing my own hair was because of that. There is enough info out there to do just as good of a job on your own hair as someone else can.

[jonaslover30265]

your really peppy its kinda annoying but i love ur vids

[jaimeleigh00]

i love all ur videos!!!!!!!

[sarahkoob]

hey candeelion whats ur natrail hair color is it dark or was it just dyed darker

[candeelion]

Its naturally a really ashy brown - pretty dark but not good tones. I haven't seen my natural hair in years.

[502455fan4Eva]

umm....does bleaching hurt and does it ruin ur like ppl say

[candeelion]

Bleaching can irritate your scalp and it can ruin your hair... you should educate yourself prior to doing your own hair. Remember though hair does grow back :P

[LeanyB]

Your voice is GREAT!

[au2di3tion]

Gorgeous Girl :D Do your thing :D

[rose80]

m,,,oiioiuuyhyuhuttgtgdQ

[kotystevenspersonal]

if the clips aint keeping your part stay try using elastics it will stay put

[paulie]

also. use purple tinted styling products and purple tinted shampoo "quick silver" is great, cancels out yellow tones.

bleach - bleach- tone - style with tinted products.

[iBangGang]

yeah ! your voice is nice (x !!

[taranph]

i LOVE YOUR VOICE.

[candeelion]

Thanks your sweet!

[joeEXplosion]

i love the bleach in england it makes it go like white on like brown hair

x

[loveableale3]

hi!!! just a quick advice!!!! try to bleach just the orange spots!!! do not bleach all the hair!

[gerard589]

i would recommend thinning your hair.

[candeelion]

I used to thin my hair but haven't had it done in years. I think it would be hard to explain to my hair dresser here...

[hankicheif]

Woah, you're so pretty and your hair looks so nice like that :D

[Herrmorbid]

go lighter, itll look great!

[candeelion]

I totally agree with you. I should have had more bleach. I was trying to just do the ends first but I just didn't have enough bleach. I'm going to do it again this weekend and put in the pirouette.

[sxbelovedxs]

i think you should use two applications at once because I have hair like yours, it's short but pretty thick for white girl hair lol. Anyways, I think you need to definitely SATURATE that hair. it didn't look like enough to even totally wet all of your hair. I had that happen once, not fun. Just really coat it good. good luck!

[sashkalitcheski]

hey candeelion im also a killerstrands member. I think some of your hair is stuck at the gold stage still, just remember that you dont have to bleach all the hair, (like the bits that are right) none the less you did a great job. =)

[candeelion]

Hi fellow KillerStrander! I think my big problem was that I didn't have enough bleach. I didn't have any access to more so I'm stuck with what I've got :(

[thenbxmas]

Your hair turned out so well! I personally do not use toner or any special conditioner for my hair and I can achieve platinum in two sessions, usually in the same day. I haven't fried out my hair yet haha, so I must be lucky. I think you give great advice in a friendly way and I look forward to more videos in the future.

[candeelion]

You're lucky if you don't have to user toner. I'm hoping to get platinum on this next go.

[x0GothicMe0x]

screw you babystunnah808.

if she thinks her hair is long, let her fucking think so! maybe what she means is that it's longer that she usually have it or that it's longer than she likes.

my hair reatches to my ass and i think that is maybee to long.

anyway, youre cute in this vid^^,

[babystunnah808]

you think your hair is pretty long??????

ahahahahaha i tripp

dhat is very short

mine is down to ma'ass;

[candeelion]

Well its long for me :) every time it gets this long I get bored and cut it.

[candeelion]

I liked the dark brown too but it was time for a change - thanks for the compliment Katy Perry is HOT!

[myauntdoesyoga]

i like it better brown :/

you look like katy perry with the brown!

[missyann60]

You done it! Great video even if you didnt get it as blonde as you wanted.
