Help. Orange hair

29 replies

Can any one help a silly person. So I got bored last week and bleached my black hair. It's now bright orange I thought I could live this way but maybe not. What's my options as I'm seeing rather contrasting results online using various toners or re bleaching??
I have moved and nowhere near me could even book me into an app. Soon As they already have their current clients booked in for a while as I don't have a hairdresser yet, otherwise I will 100% be visiting someone soon.
Please help.

Honestly, I've had many bleach disasters over the years and I wouldn't try to do it yourself again. If it was me, I'd use a semi permanent brown to cover it up and keep doing that until you can book in with a professional. If you have Asian hair, it's even harder to go blonde and no job for someone who doesnt know what they're doing. If you're looking at Brad Mondo videos, there is one where an Asian girl tried to bleach hers and it ended up all snapping off

Look up this guy on Instagram, his last video (with him wearing a brown jacket) is a good one for explaining bleached hair going orange.

@shinytinhat I can just see Brads face when you whip out the Wella toner 😂 when I had a bleaching fail I used Knight & Wilson Pure Plex in lightest ash blonde. Check out the reviews on Superdrug, there's lots of before and after photos on there.

Ha well tbh if my hair falls off I'm ok as long as it's below the shoulders as I have a lot of hair. 🤞 for me everyone. I will update if I have a sink full of hair or any degree of success.

I may also back out and admit defeat. But that's not like me. I'd rather humiliate myself further.
Even though my dh eyes did pop out his head when I appeared out the bathroom with this number.
And he sheepishly said errrrrrr then paused a rather long time. Then said, is it supposed to be errrrrr
