Going From Brunette To Blonde
As with all other differentiations in nature, the natural hue of the platinum blonde hair has a natural purpose. The color is meant to trigger more Vitamin D synthesis especially among people in sunshine deprived regions such as Northern Europe. This simple fact can be attributed as the reason as to why the majority of natural blondes are found in Europe and generally in the high latitudes regions of the world.
That being said, one can easily attain a platinum blonde color by just dying their hair. The whole process, when done by a professional and in a proper manner should yield stunning hair color, enviable by many.
Ideally, the process begins by bleaching every single strand of hair. This is a painstaking endeavor and may run into hours. Patience is, thus, required. The next stage involves alternating between applying color and toner. Alternating rounds of color and toner is done to avoid hair breakages. The rest between the different rounds of color and toner allow one’s hair to rest, therefore, minimizing hair damages.
Another round of bleach and toner may be added to the hair if the original color is still visible.
Finally, the hair is dried and conditioned in order to re-hydrate the hair.
