Hi all,
I recently went from years of getting foil highlights to getting "all over bleach" basically painted on my hair and scalp. (BTW All done in a salon - NEVER a 'home job'!)
I loved the result as I am naturally very fair and the colour was great for the summer (in Australia).
However, I would like to go back to the foils as they are more subtle and natural. Also I understand all over bleaching is much harsher on one's hair than foils. Is that correct? Luckily my hair is in excellent condition now but I want to keep it that way but I still need to highlight it or else I look really washed out. So I have a bit of a dilemma.
My question is how do I go back to foils? My first thought would be to get my hair dyed as close to my natural colour as possible and get the foils put over that. Is that right?
Any advice would be really great.
Cheers xx
