For starters I want to point out that I am a natural ashy/white blonde and not all hair takes bleach the same way. So what works for me to get the colour of blonde I like, might come out a little different on someone else if you are a natural brunette, dirty blonde or more of a yellow blonde :)
At the salon:
- I use bleach 20 volume (I have never dyed or put colour in my hair I just use bleach!).
- Weaved foils, close together (I only use foils).
- I don't get the bleach pulled down to the ends of my hair when doing foils, I only do my roots so bring the bleach about half way down (or wherever your roots end) while leaving the ends of your hair out.
- My hair lifts quickly so I usually only have my foils on for 30 minutes at the longest.
- After 30 min. when getting the bleach washed out I usually get a toner put in to make it a little ashy because thats how I like my hair to look. I don't always need a toner, it all depends on how my hair took to the bleach and if it looks like it has a little yellow undertone my hairdresser will tone it.
At home:
- To keep my blonde from getting yellowy from the sun, I use a purple shampoo on my hair two-three times a week. That helps to keep it a white and ashy blonde!
- For my Bellami Hair extensions I toned them myself with a purple shampoo to get them to match my hair because they were a little too yellow when I first got them :)
You can check out my video on how I toned them bellow!

That is everything that I do to my hair!! There is nothing I didn't tell you! :)
I hope this helped for those of you that wanted to know, and remember that everyones hair is different so I'm not saying that this will make your hair the exact colour of mine but it does give you an idea of what I do! Feel free to discuss this with your hair dresser if you are interested in going this colour :)
