"It only needs to be lifted three levels, and most of the time that is easy to do," she says. "Everyone looks good blonde, and if you can pull off a cool blonde, it’s usually very sexy."Īs for the easiest base color, Yanchuk says starting with a natural level 7 base color (dirty blonde) and up usually sets the scene for a beautiful silver-blonde shade. "I think silver-blonde hair color has become so popular because it’s visually so striking," says Joseph Huckabee of NYC's Sally Hershberger Salon. It's very Daenerys Targaryen with a splash of Anderson Cooper (and we mean that as the highest form of a compliment). In fact, we'd argue that silver-blonde hair is the cool girl's answer to going lighter for summer. It differs from platinum in that platinum keeps to a pure white tone, while silver-blonde will have a cool tone to it, appearing slightly darker, Tressa Yunchuk at Kharma Salons tells us. Silver-blonde hair is just a very pale blonde that reflects a silvery/ashy tone. You can always start by swapping out your usual warm caramel and gold balayage tones for something a little cooler and icier. But that's not the case at all, as proven by the inspo we rounded up below. My managers ended up loving this color (surprisingly) and I had never felt relief such as that on that day.There are two types of people in the world: Those who can commit to seeing their colorist every four to six weeks, and those who push six or seven months before they end up back in the salon chair.Īt first glance, the silver-blonde hair trend would seem to be best for those in the "really good at color maintenance" camp. The color matched my orange shirt for awhile until after a couple of washes and then it toned out to a nice strawberry/blonde My hair came out a bit more orange-y than I had wanted, my hair is extremely porous and soaks up color. My hair did come out an orangy-coral color from the lack of blue pigmentation, but I slathered on some copper-blonde dye I had stored away from previous dye-experiments. I wish I had went straight to using it before doing all of the “home-remedies” for blue tint, which dried my hair out an insane amount. Not only did it not make my hair worse in it’s condition.Įven with powder bleaches I usually get spots from uneven lift I’ve always used a powder bleach but I wanted something less-damaging, or as less-damaging a bleach can be.
I’ve been bleaching and dyeing my hair since I was in middle school. Then I came across this beautiful product: No noticable difference in lift, but did make my hair dry out.įinally with the clock ticking and my work-anxiety setting in, I darted to Sally’s to find a quick remedy to remove the tint and considered buying a cheap wig for the day. I can see this working if you had a slight tint to your hair, but all it seemed to do was lighten the pre-existing color, making my hair a light blue instead of the dark blue in the picture. *Baking soda in shampoo* (I mixed with dandruff shampoo for extra strength) Not sure why this was even an option, I put it on and waited and rinsed and the only noticible difference was the fact my hair was dryer than when I first started * Putting regular 40 developer straight on to hair dye* My work does not allow unnatural colors of any kind, and I knew I would be sent home right away if I even tried to go in with this colorĪnd my hair had been through so much in just a few weeks I almost dared to risk it.īut my judgement got the best of me, so I decided to tackle the blue tint and get my hair natural-ish before the workday began.įrantically googling ways to remove blue tint, I’ve tried the highest rated results, and I’ve compiled a nice easy list on what works and what doesn’t The worst part was the fact I had to work in less than 7 hours. The color had turned purple and blue all over, with greenish roots. I figure it would fade the same as the diluted color did, and thought I had struck gold with this color. It was probably the prettiest, darkest silver I’ve seen and I was instantly in love. A dark silver fading to a lighter silver at the ends. When it came time again to reapply my hair color, I decided to be a bit more adventurous and just apply the color directly to my hair strands without diluting with conditioner. I mixed the tube of dye with a 1:2 ratio of dye to white conditioner to get a lovely pastel silver. It wasn’t my workplace’s favorite, however.Īfter my first initial application of pravana silver. Pravana silver is one of my favorite colors that I’ve used to dye my hair.
