Red back to Blonde...

[sarah_clancy]

All my bright 6.66 red heads now want to be blonde!

I would like to hear some advice and opinions before starting.
I use Loreal..
And most clients have underlying bleach...

Im going to do a test piece firstly of course, but wanted to see how far any other hair geeks got with it..

Thanks in advance!

I am having to do this with my sister next week except that she has also had a brown put on since the red! I have been making her do tons of treatments. I plan to do a blonde wash or 2 then see what we have and maybe pop a few foils in if condition is ok. Definately a semi inbetween foils or all over if condition not good enough for foils. Then MORE treatments till it's strong enough for more foils. Very longwinded process hey :sad:

Im a koleston perfect 55/46 all over with majicontrast magenta red slices and myself and my tutor (she does my hair for me) are currently debating over the best way to get me to my desired white icy blonde..... going in tomorrow to have some strand tests with affinage eraser and also with a bleach bath to see how we go...hoping to lift the red then tone and gradually lighten over a course of 2-3 months...

Hoping either way it doesnt damage my hair too much, its in a 'frankie' style and is in brilliant condition, in preparation for going back to blonde iv had weekly conditioning treatments, monthly protein treatments, 3 weekly trims and have cut down using hair straighteners to twice a week..... so scared all of my hard work will be undone!!

Is there anything else i can do to preserve the condition?? This is my first blonde hair experience in 8 years!!!

Have a Brazilian blow dry once all the work is done. I applied 3 apps of Affinage erassor, followed by 3 lots of colour, 2 sets of bleached hi-lights, to lift my hair from a 4-5, to a 7-8. The condition wasn't really bad, but it looked fluffy, so then I did my Brazilian, back to easy, shiny hair, plus people keep complimenting the colour! All costly, I am fortunate that as I provide these services I can do them on my own hair, thank God!
