my hair was to about the bottom of my ribcage, i went for consultation at a salon, they checked my hair and said it would be totally safe to go blonde and "it won't be any worse than it is now" my hair started falling out like melted plastic. It is now shoulder length and BRIGHT ORANGE AND YELLOW!! I am so sad, I always had great hair and now it's terrible. I did not know the procedure was to have it sit in bleach for 6 hours, i thought it was about an hour process. Anyhow, i joined this site for inspriration and support. This happened a week ago I have been using some products that have strengthened my hair and really decreased the breakage. I have never looked this way before though and it is so difficult. I took my long locks for granted. and it was so thick i had to fold a headband in half for ponytail, now i can just use a regular ponytail holder. I know it will grow but this is so terrible. Not to mention when the owner seen my hair was falling off my head he took over i thought great he is going to help it.....he did much worse damage. he started round brushing with a blow dryer on high and hot, then he flat ironed it and kept spraying it. i said isnt this bad for my hair he says nope you have good hair i said i see chunks just flying off. he got it to "look" ok then started taking pics of me with cell phone. he did more damage to hair i could have treated gently and nursed, just so he could give appearance that its not so bad and take pictures so i could not sue him!!!!
