Bleaching hair? Is it super damaging?

I currently have shoulder length brown hair. I am thinking of going entirely blond (having it done at a salon of course) and my only concern would be the drying effect. Is it super damaging to your hair? Can it be done without bleaching your hair? And then also, I am growing my hair out so if I end up wanting to go back to brown, will I have to chop all my hair off? Or can I just dye it?

Bleaching hair? Is it super damaging?
if this will be your first time bleaching it, then nothing will happen. i've done soooo many things to my hair and bleach doesn't do anything bad...unless you do it thrice.


this is what they do when they colour your hair from brown to blonde:


put bleach, let it sit, then put color.


after a couple of weeks, your hair will fade out the color, depending on how many times you wash it [[lets hope every day]] and you probably wont like the color of the bleach. so then you go back and tell them i want my hair to look like what it did a few weeks back. then they wont bleach it again. they will just add colour. if they say they will bleach it again, if it was my hair, i would say no, i don't want my hair drying out.





second question can i just dye it. yes you can but the color will FADE SO MUCH FASTER THAN BLEACH. this girl in one of my classes got highlights 2 weeks ago and she didn't bleach them [[they were blonde]] and they now look light brown.





to sum it up: bleach does nothing the first time. the third time, it will fry up and be damaged. you can color it still though and that wont damage
Reply:okay i have naturally dark brown hair, i dyed it blonde and i didn't achieve the color i wanted and my hair was also harder (brassy feeling). i had it professionally done. if you want to go back to a dark color i would get it stripped and dyed. i just dyed my hair dark afterwards from a box and it still isn't as soft as it used to be.
Reply:omg please dont i did that too i had brown hair and i bleached it but now my hair is all wierd its rough like the feeling of it my scalp got screwed up and now i have grose danruff i am never going to bleach my hair again i suggest you dont but its your choice :}

NEVER USE BLEACH OR PEROXIDE ON YOUR HAIR!!!!!!





use hair dye...i do...it works perfect.





BUT DONT USE BLEACH!!!!! IT TOTALLY FRIES YOUR HAIR AND YOU CANT GO BACK!!!!!!!!!!!





and yes you can go back...





or if you only want really blonde hair for a little while, you can find a type of hair dye that eventually washes out....just look on the bottom of the box and if it says (for ex. 24) shampoos.





it works. i do it all the time!
Reply:Bleach is damaging to your hair, But nothing will really happen intill you bleach your hair so many times...I bleached my hair to get the highlights to stand out, and my ends started turning all mushy.





No you don't have to cut all your hair off, Just color it.
