Agh sorry if this is in the wrong forum, but I'm at my wits end and don't know where else to turn to.
I used to go to a high end salon in Manhattan and they were able to lift my level 2 hair up to platinum without any breakage. Unfortunately, I can't afford their prices anymore. Part of the reason I kept paying so much for this salon was because anytime I strayed and went to a cheaper salon, I always had chemical burn, orange roots, and breakage. Or I would have to bleach twice to get it to platinum. And then I would get those awful yellow bands in my hair.
after explaining my financial situation, my colorist took pity on me and gave me the name of the bleach and magic formula she does for my hair so I can do my roots. I'm too scared to do this on my own and was hoping maybe someone with color experience or someone who knows the pain of going platinum can help walk me through it. I'm at the point where if I don't do my roots soon, they won't lift as light and I'll get another band. My birthday is coming up and I feel like crying thinking about how I don't even have the money to do my hair. I know there's worse things to cry about, but I worked so hard to achieve this color only for everything to go down the toilet :/
I've thought about dying back to my natural shade of hair, but with how short my hair is, I think I need to stay platinum for now to keep it a little more sexy for work. I've had short dark hair before and was mistaken for a boy a couple of times and I don't wanna have that look for the club. And I have the magic formula of lifting dark hair to platinum without breakage. I just need someone to show me how to mix and put it on my roots and kind of help supervise my first time to make sure all my hair doesn't go falling off. I've looked at YouTube videos, but I'm just scared.
:/ please help as I've never done my own roots before!
