Hair problem
 

Hello, I'm new to this forum ^_^ How do you do?

Well, I'm going to Hong Kong (homeplace <3) in the summer and *definately* getting hair cut, and dying it ^_^ I want to dye (front) half purple half black (black is natural colour. Asian yo!) and (back) a little purple. Like this XD

The problem is...
Do anyone know of any artist with the hair I want? (not exactly the colour, I can just draw it) I want to gather as many refs as possiel and show the hairdresser ^_^ So far, I found Saga (alice nine)'s old hair T_T


ALSO, as I said, I want to get it dyed half purple ^_^ Since I have black hair, you have to bleach it first, THEN dye the purple, right?
But I'm really really afraid of very dry and damage hair... ^^;; (a phobia?! Haha) Is there any way of reducing the damage of the bleach? Because I heard that bleach can seriously damage your hair =_=
PLEASE HELP! 8D

Thank you! Do you know of any sites with pictures of Jrockers? =_=

Miyavi, haha! I have about a million different hair styles xD
Thanks for the help!

I have black hair and have dyed it bright red, dark red, brown , blonde.
I've done all sorts of things to it for a couple years now.
It hasn't killed my hair yet , if you're going to bleach and dye so much you better start taking holy care of your hair.
Go to hair salons and look at the different shampoos and conditioners for sale. They may seem expensive but they're worth it. Also if you want to style your hair all " crazy" after the dying try using safe products instead of things that just stiffen your hair. Silk is a respected brand but it's also very expensive.

Edit: If you see a hair product or the hair dresser suggests a product to you ( Take note of what they're using on your hair ) right down whats in it then go to a regular store and look at the different hair products. Compare them to the fancy one you found and see if you can find one that has the same stuff in it. Sometimes a products name alone can have it costing way to much money.

Thank you!
Haha, your hair is quite strong >W< Do you know any good shampoos and conditioners that are good but not too expensive? XDD My mum will kill me for huge money on hair products D8
Actually, I wanna style my hair kinda like Uruha (the GazettE)

My hair is dark with purple bangs & highlights, and yea you have to get it bleached otherwise you would have to squint really hard to see any purple in it:puccasmile:. Suprisngly the damage to my hair was minimal. & I get it relaxed every six months to a year (my hair is extremely curly:chikasfrown:). Luckily my hairdresser knows what shes doing. Its a long process but it worth it to get the results you desire. & upkeep isnt expensive. Just a few toners here & there. Hope that helps!:onismile:

Heya, I'm from Britain,
uhh, I'm going HK too this summer.

anyways, your hair, the style you want is kinda extreme.

firstly, i recently dyed all of my hair and its still okay, I'm chinese too. >.<
Unless you have dry hair normally. Oh and if you want purple to show up, they WILL use bleach. ask before it goes onto your head. XD
I would DEFINATELY use colour protection shampoos. i heard sunsilk or herbal essences. And i would suggest against pantene and head and shoulders, they're quite concentrated and your hairs been concentrated in dye for ages, so yeah.

secondly, are you really sure with a fringe like that, it would get sort of irritating after a while.

but really, its ALL your choice, do what you want, because you only live once. So it looks bad, at least you learnt something and from what i hear HK hairdressers are awesomely cheap.

have a great time ^^

Not really x.x
My dad is crazy about hair so I've been using the good stuff since I was born practically , which is why my hair is so strong.
I also don't let people touch it, or try to no let them ( Includes myself ). The oil in skin can make it icky. And I taught myself how to cut my own hair ( You can buy professional hair cutting scissors at just about any hair salon or beauty store ) so I keep the dead hair out of it.
Uhhh. I might be able to think of cheaper product for you. What kinda hair do you have besides dark? Frizzy,smooth etc.

@reihiino
Thanks for your help! Ooh, your hair sounds interesting >W< Do you have any photos to share? :3

@xYinniex
你好 ^^
Oh, do you think its too extreme? >_<
You dyed your hair but not bleach? What colour did you dye it? It showed up still on black hair? :O
My hair is quite normal actually XD It used to be very dry when I was smaller, but I got the permanent straight thing in HK about 4 years ago, and now its a normal type hair XD
Do you recommend Pantene on dyed hair? I heard if you suddenly change the shampoo you use, it will become strange D8

Oh, you mean the way it comes down my face? I have no problem with it for 2 years now XD

Thanks for the help!


@EveV
Wow, haha! Whats your dad's hair like? XD
Oh, I'm always scared to go to hair salons in this place =_= And I don't like letting my mum cut my hair, because she wants to cut away my fringe DD8 I cut my hair myself, but sometimes I can't cut my right side of the fringe, since I'm right handed... XDD
Thank you! Mmm, well first of all, my hair is naturally black. Its quite straight, because I did the permanent straight thing a few years ago XD Its frizzy though =_= No split ends, kinda normal type.


@Obscene
ok, i'll keep in mind the extremely choppy, uneven, and messy bits, thanks!
