Resolved Question

I want to dye my hair platinum blonde with black underneath?

Currently dark brown. My hair was naturally red so the brown dye still has red in it when the light hits it.
Can someone tell me how I could do this myself? I know a little already about bleaching my hair. Can someone tell me a good bleach, developer and toner and what I should be doing with it and how long to keep it on for? And how to go about putting the black in? Should I only bleach the top of my hair and then dye the underneath black or go all blonde first then put the black in?

Thanks.

Btw I'm only CONSIDERING doing this myself, and I probably won't do it for another while yet. Might just save up and get it done professionally next year, I'm just interested in how it's done.

Additional Details

Please don't tell me it's trashy or slutty or any of that crap. It isn't. Only if you act like one
I'm going to do it anyway, I want a change.

That sounds like a really cute idea! I would leave the bleach on the top half of your hair for approximately 35 minutes. Then the black dye for about 20. The bleach will really damage your hair by the way. So be prepared for split ends because your hair is really dark now. I wouldn't be too worried about it though. After wards you can like do some repair masks and go easy on the heat products and use heat tamer spray.

• If i were you I would definitely get it done professionally. It's not worth accidently leaving bleach in too long and having it go white. I will tell you that I've seen someone with their hair like that and I wouldn't call it trashy, it just looks lopsided. But that's just with that person, it could be different with different hairstyles. I will tell ya, golden brown is the best hair colour :P
• hi sweet, id definatly get it done proffesionally, theres loads of different ways of doing, id probably section it out into 2 sects do lots of really thick chuncky highlights on top, then fully cover the underneath section, separating the two sections with a strip of foil x
• do it seperately, brown u derneth hen blond on top, dont do it all blond first coz tht wil damage ur hair.
  it wont look trashy dont lisen to them.
• ewww please dont its so trashy
