Can i bleach blonde over my red highlights?

Ok, so i used to have these really cute chunky blonde highlights in my hair over the summer. i wanted a change in the fall so i switched to a really dark brown base with vibrant red chunky highlights.


I am really over the red and want very much to get back to the blonde hightlights i had...but i'm not sure if the red will lift to the brass-free blonde look that i want, and i don't want it to turn pink either. the last time i touched up the red highlights was over a month ago.Can i bleach blonde over my red highlights?
No please don't - go to a hairdressers and explain as if you DIY it will go ginger - my friend did this - and it was permanent


hope this helps xxx =)Can i bleach blonde over my red highlights?
if ur getting them bleached over, then yes it will cover it up. Bleach will take dye out of your hair completely and take it straight to blonde. it wont turn pink, unless you dont leave the bleach in long enough.
as long as you use bleach it will work, dont use blonde dye, that will probably make it pink lol








good luckk!
No, Use oreal hair color remover
NO, the red will always be there and will interfere with whichever colour you use. Red fades so fast, but is hard to get rid of completely.





What you need to do is remove the red from the hair, and then you can use any lighter shade you want without fear of any brassiness.





You don't want to use a bleach at this point, since that only opens up the hair too much for what you need. Use a colour remover (goes by several different brand names) to get rid of any *artificial* colour in your hair. If it is still not light enough, or has too much yellow or gold, then you can bleach a little to get it lighter. Then use a toner (pale tint used on bleached hair) to get the final shade.





This is not really difficult -- if you follow the steps and know what you are doing. The hard part is to separate out the highlights so that you don't accidentally bleach or tint the other hairs. This is nearly impossible to do cleanly.





What you may have to do is suffer through the light faded red for a bit, and let them grow out. In the meantime, when you get a retouch, just have the new highlights done in the shade you want. It may not look that bad after all. But you really should have a discussion (consultation) with a professional hair colourist to see if there is anything else you can do that will still look good and is not this much work to do. We can't see your hair from here very well. They will be able to do a proper analysis on your hair, and see what condition it is in and what you can do to it.
