    Default Bleaching Hair/Ombre?

    I've been looking at various ombre hairstyles and have never done them before, since my hair is growing out I'm hoping to attempt multiple tones of blue, purple and possible pink. Did it take a long time to remove the orange tint from bleaching and how difficult is it to blend as well maintain ombre? I've thought about using a misting bottle or a regular applicator, but my fear is that it will cause blotching or fade into other colors from showering ruining the effect. Is it better to use semi like Manic Panic and Punky vegan dyes for bold color vs Ion Brilliance or Wella Charm to prevent this? Thanks again!

    Maybe post this in Body Biz? Can you get a consult @ a salon or beauty school? In Nylon mag, they had an article about the 2 ladies that form the co Manic Panic.

    There is a youtuber named Brittany Balyn who always dyes her hair different colors of the rainbow herself and sometimes multiple colors at once, pretty sure she does tutorials and discusses the products she uses.

    Your hair is growing out so what is the new growth color and what is the current dyed color? For bright colors you want to have the palest yellow hair possible or else they come out muddy. Especially pink.

    If your hair has been box dyed many times, the orange tint will not lift easily. When I had box dyed brown/black hair, I bleached it several times, once professionally and had to cut most of it off. The orange just wouldn't lift plus it melted. So if you do eventually get your hair to lift to a pale yellow, I would use manic panic instead of the ion or wella. Your hair will be fragile and manic panic won't really harm it more, and personally I think the more permanent dyes fade just as quickly as the manic panic.

    If the colors come out kinda wacky you could get platinum blonde clip in extensions and put the colors in those to help blend. Check out Guy Tang's channel, he does this all the time and I like his technique
