Anonymous asked: I have brown-dark brown hair, and I want to ombre my hair.. But, I don't want it to be like blonde, yellowish at the bottom, I want it a lighter brown colour? Is that possible? Like darkest at the top, and lighter and lighter brown at the ends? Hope you understood what I meant Xx

Yeah I understand.

Is this how you meant? http://cdn.blogs.sheknows.com/celebsalon.sheknows.com/2010/11/rachel-bilson-hairstyle.jpg

prettylttlthings asked: so i've been wanting to ombre my hair for a while now but i'm not sure what to do since i don't know how my hair will take bleach. its naturally medium/dark brown and i've been dying it dark auburn for a while..i want it to subtly fade into blonde at the ends but i don't want it to turn orange! I also have side bangs and layers so i don't know how far up my hair i should go. what should i do?

Sounds a little like Alexa chungs… You could bleach the ends of it until it goes a caramel colour and add a brown over it, and let it fade… It’ll take a week or two til it’s faded back to a dark caramel, but it’ll look quite suitable on your layers :) 

Anonymous asked: hi. so i have hair that is naturally a dirty blonde but it is dyed a medium brown color. i am wanting to ombre my hair from red to blonde. Should I dye all of my hair red first and then bleach the ends or bleach the ends and then dye it red? Thanks :)

yeah dye all the hair red, and then bleach the ends, but try and wash off the red dye on the bottom half after 5 minutes… This’ll help the bleach take to it better

dreamsand-disasters asked: hi your blog is super cool and really useful for me! I have long waist length very dark brown hair, its also thick and wavy/frizzy. I am also mixed race and was just wondering do you know if it works as well on ethnic hair? I would love it to ombre into brown or light blonde, so just wondering!

thanks:)
yeah it does! I’d recommend going into a lighter brown, it’ll compliment your skin tone well  

someday-at-1251 asked: Hey! So I have really dark brown hair, I'm not sure of what color I should do. I've done a magenta color in my hair for ombre, but now I'm thinking I want to try maybe light brown? Would that look nice? :)

Yeah :)

extremlyrandom asked: im going to ombre my hair today, no special color, just bleech it. i now have darkbrown hair, but my natural haircolor is blonde. Will my hair turn out orange or something? and how can i avoid that etc? should i bleech it first and then dye it with regular blond haircolor? love

yeah it will… and you should buy a regular blonde colour. I suggest leaving it on for around an hour for it to turn out blonde and not ginger 

alexwolfie asked: so I have naturally dark almost black hair, but I've dyed it to be a blue black and is fading brown, I really want teal,purple,blue ombre. So how would I go about doing it at home?

I’d recommend bleaching it to a ginger copper colour, then buying the 3 dyes - blue, teal and purple… Then start buy covering the parts of the hair that you want in blue with the dye… Then the same for the teal/purple

Anonymous asked: hello! i need help :( so, i bleached my hair tips last night, it turned out alright, but i wanted it to look more subtle so i dyed the tips again light caramel brown today to achieve a darker tone (as opposed to the orangey color i got from the bleach). i thought it would make it caramel brownish, but now it looks really brassy orange which i didn't want :( do you have any suggestions on what dye i can use to get rid of the brassy orange and get a brownish/caramelish tin on my hair tips? thanks!

oh really? you should just a ‘touch of silver’ shampoo and hair toner, it removes the brassiness of the orange. Or you can use a brown to cover it, which will fade to a auburn/caramel 

aaalexisg asked: Hi, I have really really dark black hair so I was wondering if I were to do the ombre...would it look nice? if so, how light should I go? Thank you :)

Yeah it would! I’d suggest doing a medium brown, then if you want to go lighter you can :) start off subtle
