Yeah, baby! I can finally participate in this thread, at long, long, long last!
1) What is your starting color?
I am dead bang between a level 5 (light brown) and 6 (dark blonde) with about... 35% or so grey/silver.
2) How do you get your beautiful blonde color?
I use 40 volume creme developer and a high lift tint in ultra light ash blonde then tone, again with about a level 8 ash to cool my hair's natural tendency to pull too brassy and a bit red. I am a golden blonde, in spite of the ash tint and toner. It's just how my hair rolls.
3) How do you care for your hair?
Shampoo, conditioner, plenty of coney leave ins. Purple shampoo for helping to discourage brass. Oil... The usual.
4) Any problems that you've solved (such as brassiness)?
Ash toner and purple shampoo. My new blonde is still a work in progress.
5) Last but not least - how long is your hair?
"Can I call this waist?" length.
I am so happy to finally be blonde, again. It's been a long time coming and I have been over a lot of bumps in the road on the way here. My colour isn't my "perfect dream blonde" just yet. I am tweaking it but I am pleased with how it looks so far and every time I look in my mirror, I sigh with happiness and feel as if my hair has finally come home.
