    Default How do I tell my hairstylist

    I want my hair to be YELLOW blond. Not "beige" blond with brown lowlights. I want "dipped my head in a bucket of bleach" blond.

    He always makes it look so tasteful, but I don't know how to tell him I want it LIGHT. My hairstylist is the best and I would never go to anyone else, but I know he doesn't want to make me look trashy. What should I say when I go in next time?

    ^^^ how about just that, "I want trashy, light, porn star blonde hair..." bring in pics, too. What is your natural hair color and texture? It could be that there is no way he can take you there without majorly compromizing the health of your hair.

    Bring in a picture of Anna Nicole. 'Make me look as trashy as this.'

    Yellow blonde? Why yellow blonde? Why not a nice really light neutral blonde with out the creepy brassy tones?

    When you say that I think.... http://z.about.com/d/realitytv/1/0/M/B/bl-dogswife.jpg

    You want a PLATINUM blonde perhaps? http://www.sacbee.com/static/weblogs...efanicover.jpg

    Companies make dozens of products to remove yellow from the hair... so I dunno....

    But I think Platinum blonde looks chic and pin-up girlie.

    Tell him you want golden blonde. Tell him you want warm undertones and not neutral or ash. He can probably lift your new growth straight to that color without toning it all because yellow is one of the stages hair naturally goes through when taking it to a light blonde. The reason you are probably getting a more beige blonde is because he is toning your hair with violet.

    Haha, that is my exact situation with my hairstylist!! She doesn't want to damage my hair and she also knows I would have to be diligent about upkeep because of roots. So she always gives me the same set of full warm, medium blonde highlights. I want blonde blonde damnit!

    I *think* you're wanting platinum blonde, maybe? Take in a picture of whoever you love their haircolor. A picture can say it way better than any descriptions you could possibly give!
