Wanting to colour my hair blonde?
For 20 years I was dyeing my hair blonde, as I am naturally a mousey colour but decided last year to colour it red, however now I hate it and want to go back to being a blonde bombshell. I haven't coloured my hair for 6 weeks now and the red is faint. The question is how safely can I go back blonde? Will I need to use a colour stripper even though the red is faint or is there a product I can use to go back to blonde quickly. Hair salon is out of the question - I am broke :-(

It's not gunna be cheap. But cheaper than hair dresses.
Bleach, so it goes a crazy orange/yellow/white colour.
Then put a light ash blonde on top to neutralize the orange/yellow.
Only an ash with neutralize the yellow/orange.
Then you will be left with a ash blonde.
Then you can start going lighter and lighter until you get the colour you want.
Bleaching and going ash can be done quickly, but give your hair some rest whilst going lighter.
I reccomend buying a good deep conditioning hair repair conditioner during the process, to make sure your hair doesnt get to damaged!
Also, I'd recommend buying a purple toner, i.e. Lee stafford bleach blonde toner - just to make sure its not in any way yellow, use once a week, or whenever you feel your hair is orangey

The thing is that once you die your hair red, your hair color will always have that red tint in it. In order to go from red to blonde,you would first need to "LIGHTEN" the hair again. Depending on what shade of red you have,you may be able to achieve this using the "lightest blonding possible" in Les blondiemes. That will lighten your hair to a light blonde shade.
THEN,you find the color you want and color over it. You can try hairboutique.com , they have a lot of great info! Good Luck!!

You will have to strip and bleach.
Red is the WORST colour to get out of your hair, i had to strip mine twice and bleach three times to get it out so i could colour my hair blue.

Red is hard to get out.
If you're broke, you'll have to wait :(
You have to get it striped, then bleached.
