    A picture of your hair would be appreciated. I've tried googling to find pics, but all of the pics seem a little dated. I have NEVER been able to find someone who actually colors blond hair well. They always turn it orange or grey- It seems to be a never ending battle with me and finding a decent hair stylist. I am hoping to find a picture of the hair color I am looking for to take to my appointment.

    Have you tried using yelp to find a local stylist? Yelp is kind of awesome :) I've had a hard time finding a good stylist, too, until I went to Regis in my local mall (of all places!) I went to a super upscale salon in a pricey area and the stylist ruined my hair. Had I checked yelp beforehand, I would never have set foot inside that place, and would have gone to Regis in the first place.

    Good Luck :)

    I have 2 boxes of dark brown hair dye waiting in my bathroom if it ends up being, yet another, fail. lol. It just seems like no one is skilled at blonde around here, and i'm sick of paying 200 for grey hair or orange hair. I'll check out yelp- thanks!

    also if you do find a picture of what you want get them to match the colour with the little hair things they have so they can get the colour right!!!

    I love my hair stylist.. she always gets my blonde right. I went to her after I had a beauty school try to die my hair, I asked for strawberry blonde, but the lady in charge thought dark would be better for fall. Well it turned my normally natural light brown/dirty blonde hair, dark purple black... 

     

    WHat color is your hair normall?? Maybe thats why its coming out weird.. I don't bleach my hair though, I do hi-lites, and sometimes I get low-lites it really evens out and kind of mellows my blond.

    Its all about the line they use,toner and developer... If it is turing orange,it isnt a high enough developer. Use purple shampoo!!! Buy it at Sallys,helps control the brasiness/ashiness.

    Blonde is a very tricky thing. If you have dye on your midlength and ends, but not your roots, your hair will pull light at the root and orangish on the midlength to ends.. UNLESS you didnt use  box dye, the stylist uses two different formulas.. lower developer on roots and higher on ends.. still.. it may end up two toned. Color is unpredictable when you are trying to strip it out. Going from dark to light is very hard on the hair. It could cause a lot of breakage.. especially if you were blonde before you went dark. There are so many factors that play into it. It's not black and white.
