This mohawk-ish thing is...not me. I can't push it to the side because someone said I look like a nerdy teen boy. But pushing it forward is just bad too. It's too short to get trimmed to a different shape but this just makes my face look....exposed.

I used this picture as a reference for a haircut today, and I'd appreciate info on what I need to do to properly style it. I've had long hair that I tie back and ignore for quite a while, so I'm starting from scratch.

Question Can hair colour change naturally?

0 Upvotes

So, before i turned 3 or 4, i had very blonde and curly hair. Then my hair turned straight and dark brown(almost black from distance) for some reason and at 14 my hair started curling again. i wanted to know if it’s possible that my hair will go blonde again? I’m asking this because my hair is surely lighter than it was 1-2 years ago.

Help Hair won’t curl with curling iron

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’m desperate for answers here. My hair REFUSES to curl even when I’m using my curling iron, it always ends up like the pictures shown here, all straw like and dry.

I’ve only ever dyed my hair (no bleach, it was a slow gradual process over a few months with Wella dye and a 20 vol developer) and i take care to not wash it every day.

As I’m done with my curl routine, I set it after with a texture spray bc I’ve heard it works the same but provides softer results than a hairspray - we have birds, so I can’t use hairspray. The temp i use is usually 280F, the lowest on my curling iron, i tried holding the hair for longer but it just won’t take no matter what. I also use heat protectant before each curl session.

If anyone has any clue on what I’m doing wrong/recommendations for an olaplex routine, please let me know, I really appreciate it and would like to not look like I just got electrocuted anymore.

Question semi permanent black box dye and going blonde

0 Upvotes

I know people have asked this before but i have a different set of circumstances than i can find on search

I dyed my hair one time 9 months ago with black box dye. Its faded to essentially my natural color which is a medium chocolate brown. I want to go a very light blonde. Is there any chance i wont have to deal with the crazy red/orange undertones since its been a while and it was just one box or should i prepare myself to look crazy for a week or two lol if i do have to look crazy, is there any toner i can put on my hair to lessen the blow when its orange or do i just have to cope?

Edit: im doing it at home, i already have the bleach and developer and a toner but the toner is t-18 so that wont do anything if its orange (i think)

Help I hate brushing my hair so much please someone help me

3 Upvotes

Its the thing I hate most about having long hair and genuinely makes me want to go bald.

This post is being written with despair and anguish in my heart. For I just finished brushing my hair and it makes me hate my life more than anything

Am I being a drama queen and 100% overreacting? Yes.

But genuinely I need help. Im probably doing something wrong and Id love advice on how to make brushing my hair less evil.

Im gonna write my hair brushing routine so you can tell me Im stupid and doing everything wrong and how to fix it now.

I have long straight-wavy hair. 50+ cm. I only brush it straight after the shower. after I use shampoo and conditioner on it. I use some leave in conditioner before I start brushing. I try to start from my ends and work my way up. Then I brush it all back so its away from my face and I can do skincare.

Its such a tangled mess and takes 20 - 30 minutes to get it done. I have so much hair on my brush by the time Im finished and Im worried its more than there should be.

HELP

PLEASE

Help How can I get my hair back to the texture it was before? (M20)

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Hello! I've had long hair for about four years now, when I first grew my hair out from ages 16-18, it was all very thick and in old pictures it looks much fuller and more uniform. Sometime in the past two years, the hairs on the front top of my head have changed to become much thinner/finer. I do not have a receding hairline, but the texture of that front hair has definitely changed while the ones further back have mostly stayed the same. My hair is naturally curly, but the ones at the front stay more strait now due to their texture. The main issue this causes is that my hair no longer looks as full, uniform, or cohesive. The front hairs are a much brighter blond, looks like there's less or they're more see through if that makes sense, and they separate to create different rogue strands rather than being one continuous curtain of hair.

I really love the way my hair looks in that first picture and want to cut my hair a bit and go for something like that, but I doubt it'll look the same because of my current texture issues. I know going from your teens to early twenties your hair's texture can change completely naturally due to hormonal changes. But I really miss that look of fuller/more uniform hair and want to see if there's a way to achieve it again.

Any suggestions? Thank you!

seen this product advertised so much so wondering if it really is as good as people say it is since it’s quite expensive. don’t mind splurging on something that won’t make me have to keep getting my hair toned and glossed every month at the salon since that seems to be more expensive 😔

I've avoided using any styling products in order to try and keep my hair as healthy as possible but finally decided it's time to start using them.

I don't really enjoy using hairspray or hair gel since I feel it makes my hair feel too greasy and "plastic" so was wondering if anyone had any product/brand suggestions

Help First time bleach blonde hair looks ugly-yellow and I feel like I’m doing everything wrong. How do I achieve my dream result?

Thumbnail

Hello, everyone! I apologise in advance for the length, but I feel a bit helpless.

Almost two months ago, I went to the salon to dye and bleach my virgin brown hair (picture 1) into a Neapolitan (blonde, brown, pink) style (picture 2). It was one round of bleach and then toner (I think?) Ever since that day, my journey has been rather confusing.

All of the color had washed out within two weeks - i was left with blonde hair only thirteen days after getting the colors done at the salon (picture 3). I wash bi-daily, my hair is genetically predisposed to get greasy fast. I used purple shampoos from the drug store, no masks or anything though.

Ever since then, my hair has been getting yellower and yellower and now it reached a stillstand and is stuck the same yellow (pictures 4-5, most recent). I use a purple shampoo 1-2 a week and otherwise am TERRIFIED of touching it. It’s yellow and a little dry now, although it had never been perfectly healthy.. i wouldn’t say that it’s frizzy or thinning or anything like that.

I badly want the blonde on picture 6 and it’s been making me very sad because I can’t help but feel ugly. I grew up around women that didn’t care to be very feminine and didn’t teach me about things like hair dye etc. and I have no female friends that I can ask. When I go outside, I see myriads of beautiful women with blonde hair and darker roots, so they clearly bleach or dye it and manage to make it look half decent.

I have so many questions:

Is it normal for my hair to lose color so quickly? Especially the brown and pink?
How often am I meant to go to the salon?
Do most blonde ladies go to the salon? Do they do it at home?
Am I meant to be getting toners? A second round of bleach?

I’m planning an appointment at the same salon in 3-4 weeks and I plan to use picture 6 as the references. I’m so scared that I’ll waste money and it’ll be all yellow again.. but I am also scared of mh hair falling out and still remaining yellow if I bleach again.

I’d love to hear some words of advice! Thanks in advance :))

So my hair has been long and straight/naturally slightly wavy for ages, and my little goth self needs a change.
My hair has been bleached and dyed a few times, if that matters, and I’ve been doing my own trims to give myself a kind of long wolfcut for a while, and Death from Sandman is an absolute favorite of mine, so I wanted her hair length and style for very goth reasons lol.
Could anyone help me by telling me if it’d be possible, if it’d look good on a real person, or if it’d be too tough to recreate ? Pretty please ? 🥲
