\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n You’ve passed the first big challenge, and you’ve gotten through it without a hitch. You bleached your hair, and it shows no visible signs of extreme damage.<\/p>\n Then, it’s time to take the next step: choosing which color to apply to your hair. Of course, after bleaching, it’s time to achieve the final color.<\/p>\n Therefore, you ask yourself, can I dream of coloring my bleached hair with an ash blonde hair dye?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n You can. After all, dreams are dreams, as Calder\u00f3n de la Barca said. But be careful because ash blonde is not always the best choice for bleached hair. <\/span>\n I’m going to prove it to you by telling you a story. It\u2019s about Carmen, one of my clients, who came to see me screaming for help.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Carmen’s story is similar to hundreds of other stories: she had dark brown hair. One day, she got tired of her color, decided to bleach her hair, and then she applied an ash blonde hair dye.<\/p>\n But she didn’t apply the correct ash blonde hair dye.<\/p>\n That was the worst decision of her life because her hair turned green<\/a>. Yes, green.<\/p>\n How could that be? The coloring kit she had bought clearly said “ash blonde”?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Still in disbelief, she thought that the hair dye had expired<\/a>, and that was why her hair had turned green.<\/p>\n So, very determined, she went to the store where she had bought it to make all kinds of claims.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The saleswoman threw all her claims to the ground when she asked her what color she had before applying the hair dye.<\/p>\n Why did she ask her this question?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Because applying an ash blonde on hair that is orange after bleaching is not the same as on yellow hair. <\/span>\n If you don’t want the same thing to happen to you, read on because I\u2019ll tell you: <\/p>\n When you bleach your hair, you wash away the natural or artificial pigments in your hair fiber to lighten it.<\/p>\n The darker your hair is, the more bleaching sessions you\u2019ll need to take it to a blonde. Your hair will reach different levels after each bleaching session.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The level of lift will depend on the quality of the bleach powder you use and your hair\u2019s color.<\/p>\n For example, if you have light brown hair and you lift 4 shades, your hair will be level 8.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n How do you identify the level of lift?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It\u2019s represented by colors: <\/p>\n It seems simple, but it isn\u2019t. That\u2019s why Carmen made the mistake. Her hair was level 7 yellowish-orange and she applied the ash blonde. The result was green hair.<\/p>\n Why?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Because the predominant colors in the composition of ash blonde are blue and green.<\/p>\n 85% blue and 15% green predominate in most brands of ash blonde hair dyes.<\/p>\n As Carmen\u2019s hair had a yellow bleach level, her hair ended up green after applying the ash hair dye with 85 % blue pigments.<\/p>\n Yellow + blue= green.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n So, if you want to go for an ash blonde, my recommendation is to reach a lift level 8 strong yellow, or level 9 light yellow. <\/span>\n <\/p>\n Now that you know what bleach level you need to apply an ash blonde, it’s time to choose the hair dye.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Have you ever noticed the numbering on the hair color kits? These numbers determine the color and highlights.<\/p>\n The first number is the color. For example, blondes are numbers 7, 8, and 9.<\/p>\n 7 is medium blonde, 8 is light blonde, and 9 is very light blonde.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As you can see, none of these colors is ash blonde. Why?<\/p>\n Because these colors have no highlights or shades in their composition. That determines whether a blonde is an ash blonde or not.<\/p>\n So, if you want an ash blonde, you should look for number 1 after the dot. For example, 7.1 is a medium ash blonde. <\/span>\n <\/p>\n If your hair is level 8, you can choose an 8.1 light ash blonde. Alternatively, if it\u2019s level 9, you can choose color 9.1 very light ash blonde.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n You know which ash color to choose. Now, what hair color type should you choose?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I advise you to choose a semi-permanent hair color. As it doesn\u2019t contain ammonia, it doesn\u2019t damage the hair.<\/p>\n Also, if you don’t like the result, you can remove it because the hair dye will wash out evenly.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Ash tones are cool colors and contain a characteristic grayish reflection.<\/p>\n Therefore, ash blondes always look best on cool skin tones. And if your eyes are light, green, or blue, even better.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n You’ve got your ash blonde! Now, how do you take care of it?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Now that you’ve bleached your hair and achieved your ash blonde, you can’t throw all that hard work away, can you?<\/p>\n You’ll need to be strict with your hair beauty routine.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n You should also add the purple shampoo for light ash blondes<\/a>. It eliminates the yellowish reflections that appear due to oxidation, washing, and sun exposure.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The best for dark ash shades is to use semi-permanent hair dye. It\u2019s the one you used to tone your bleached blonde hair. It\u2019ll help restore the color that your ash blonde will lose after several washes.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you blow-dry every day, let your hair air-dry a few times a week<\/a>. Instead of using a curling iron, go for the old-fashioned curls.<\/p>\n In addition to preserving the ash blonde, you’ll avoid heat damage to your hair.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/botoxcapilar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/rubio-cenizo-medio.jpg\")
