Girls who have stripped their hair??

I went a dark brown last winter.. and now I'm looking to get a light brown with blonde highlights for the summer.. My hairdresser said we would have to strip it to get it that light and it could damage my hair. I already have pretty thin hair with a little damage.. Would stripping it completely ruin my hair? What other options do I have?

For those who have had their hair stripped.. what were your experiences? Was it worth it? How long did it take your hair to bounce back? Any certain conditioners help?

Please give me all information you can...Thanks girls!

Hey - What's happening? Just sent you an email

I have gone form dark brown to white blond, and several shades in between - summer color vs winter color. Not worth it AT ALL, to strip it. Killed my hair!

This is what I did - Bought the light brown / ash blond hair color from WALMART, and did it myself. Tons cheaper, better for my hair than the stripper they always want to use. Then I bought Shine blond shampoo and conditioner made by Loreal - think they make a new one now - but I suggest using THEIR products. Have a super mix of light brown hair and "natural" blond /light brown highlights. My hair is healthy too.

when i got mine stripped (bleached w/e) it fell out just a little.. but it's alright. even though stripping will hurt your hair badly, you can still go for it and you may wanna discuss it with your hairdresser.

Hey Felicia, let me just say I admire your courage. Instead of completely stripping your hair I suggest you keep your dark hair and instead ask for some thin caramel or honey colored streaks. Ask your hairdresser for the best color for your skin tone. This will give you a summer look without having to risk your hair.

My mum had her hair stripped to go blonde from brunette and despite having quite thick hair its not very good for it at all. It left the hair very brittle and she had to use intensive conditioning treatments to get it back to its normal glossy self. When my sister went lighter she took the longer option of getting the colour gradually put into her roots to blend in with her current colour till she was the shade she wanted but this is a lengthy process. Im not sure if it would ruin your hair I would talk to your hairdresser for more advice though.

I did this to my hair, it looks rough now, the protective stuff is gone, i have to use a special spampoo to strengthen my hair because it was so damaged from coloring and stripping(I only had it done 2 times too!). It fell out alot too, and I had-have thin hair. I would not advise you to do it. good luck

Hair care?

I play a sport, so therefore I have to wash my hair on a daily basis. All this washing and tying my hair up in ponytails is causing me to lose a lot of hair and thinning my hair at the top of my head. How do I keep from losing so much hair? I feel as if I will be bald on the top of my head by the time i'm twenty.

I've been a dancer for 14 years, and those buns are murder on hair! You're not alone....

Try learning how to french braid... they look good on EVERYONE and thy also look elegant and complicated, but really aren't that hard (try a google search to learn, or ask a friend). They pull less, and it gives you totally new look.

If this just isn't your thing, alternating height of ponytails daily helps put less stress on one part of your hair. Even a simple braid (not french) puts a lot less stress on your hair and scalp.

Make sure you use a damage control conditioner, and give your hair a rest on weekends or whenever it's possible to let it hang free!

Maybe your ponytails are too tight? Try looser ones. Also, alternate the height of the ponytail so there's less stress on that same part every day (like wear a high ponytail one day, a lower one the next, etc). I wash my hair daily and my hair is fine, you just have to alternate a bit. Condition well and do a deep-conditioning treatment once a week.

Hair care?

You are pulling it back much too tightly... and you are right. You will have a receding hair line because you are damaging the roots. That hair might not grow back. Professional women athletes ( tennis, softball, golf, etc) pull their hair back but not severely... just enough to keep it out of the eyes. They also wear visors and sweatbands to keep hair and sweat out of the eyes.

Hair care?

do some oilong in the night...n wash off by the morning....go for a good hair oil....hair oil along with a good shampoo ...would help strengthen your hair roots...if your hairs arnt too long then set them free or wear an hair band....tight pony tails etc often cause it to fall out....so set them free often if you can......else even if u tie them back..make sure u dont tie them too tightly....

hope that would help...

good luck!

dont put your hair in a pony tail when hair is wet. use a special shampoo and less hair products...

Hair care?

Well, all i can say is talk to your coach and tell him about your situation. He will be helpful and will suggest ideas. Also talk to your doctor to get hair treatments. You should either let your hair down instead of with ponytails. Or dont wash on a daily basis. Ask your doctor for hair treatments that will make your hair fresh and not stinky

Any chemical treatment, dye, perm, etc., will add stress to your hair. A dark color will contrast too much with your scalp and make your hair look thinner. Be conserative and have some highlighting done which will add depth. Also, get a cut above the collar to reduce the pull on your hair. Be sure to use a good quality shampoo, conditioner and other hair products.

Biotin is a good dietary supplement for hair. Be aware though you are not going to get instant results from it but you're likely to see a difference in several months. Remember this is working from the inside out. As a bonus, you'll probably find you also have stronger nails.

if u wanna go scene, most of my friends what they do is they take a chunk of their hair, twist it, and then they take the edge of the scissor and glide it down the piece. You probably shouldnt do it yourself since the only reason my friends can is cause their moms are hair dressers.Just go to the salon and its really cheap just to thin it lol.
