I am currently wearing brazilian extentions in my hair full sewn in. I dyed my ends red so I have a red ombre look but now I'm thinking about going a full platinum color for my entire head if I bleach this hair will it take or no? And any one have any ideas to get the platinum look or ways to dye it, I watched a few youtube videos but I rather ask you guys.

Honey I would say don't do it, your hair is beautiful as it is!

I had my hair platinum for about 6 month, and I just had to chop
of like half my lenght cos my hair died and started falling of :( And I'm naturally blond, so I didnt think I would damage my hair to much cos I didnt have to bleach it that much...

Okay, you are going to need lightner (bleach) powder and peroxide. Example bw is the bleach and I say 40 volume peroxide. Get a plastic (its important it isn't metal!!!) and mix equal parts into the bowl. Divide your hair into four sections the first two in the front should be parted behinde your ears and meet at the highest point of your head and the last two just part them out vertically all partings equal of course. Begin at the front, section at a time working really fast but consistently as you are dealing with bleach which will work as soon as you coat the hair ommit your ends! the red is obviously lighter and being that you are dealing with human hair its a lot more porous and we don't need to add our lightner mixture to it just yet. Also do not color your scalp first just the middle of the hair than once you've done that you go back into the scalp because the middle of the hair needs more time to process than thw scalp and the ends need less time than both than you go back and lighten the hair at the scalp than oncw your finish you go do your ends. But please be careful and make sure to read the directions always and if the lightner you have purchased says off the scalp than really don't use it ob your scalp. Make sure beforw you begin you have gloves on and I'd suggest a patch test to make sure you aren't allergic...but ik! none of us do that and very few of us are but yeah base your hwad before applying the bleach! and if at anytime you feel uncomfortable just wash it out....do NOT comb it out girl! do not irritate thw hair as the bleach is already stretching the hair. This stuff is not too different from a relaxer, and that shouldn't use a comb either but back comb should be use ld to press the hair making sure we add more product to the hair when it seems dry. Keep checking the hair and don't pass 45 min. 30 should be fine though. Than get the desired platinum color you want I suggslest looking for 10, 11, 12 N and get a 10 volume peroxide and mix equal parts and color your hair. If you are using a box color than everything is already included for you. Than wash your hair make sure the water isn't too hot because it will rid the color use a sulfate free shampoo and make sure that you use a lot of conditioner!
