Which is the right one, depends mainly on the hair to be colored from: -The barber should analyze the hair structure precisely and above all query how often the hair has been colored in the past few years- advises Matthias Scarf.
The more damaged the hair and the more artificial pigments already envelop (eg due to frequent dyeing), the more complicated the brightening is namely.
In addition to the hair structure but also decide the factors of time and money on what Blond method is the correct one:
> Method 1: fast, friendly, but expensive
From brown to blond in one day – that goes. But if only you bring many hours of time. -We start in the tips, because there is (at least with multiple colored hair) attached the most paint. Was only when the tips are bright enough then, the bleaching comes in lengths. So we work from floor to floor in the direction of approach before-says Scarf method.
After the appropriate exposure time, the dissolved pigments are removed by hand from the hair and applied a further portion Bleaching – also: the blonding process is maintained until the desired degree of lightening is achieved. Sounds quite simple, right? In fact, this procedure can but – depending on the base color – take many hours and must be monitored continuously. No wonder that very few hairdressers they offer at all.
The advantages of this method: Because of the dyeing process goes on for hours – (relatively) gently. Succeeds, the step from brown to blond optimal treatment with a color or tint is hardly necessary. The disadvantage is that this method is extremely time consuming and costly.
Method 2: from brown to blond in stages

A blonding passage can lighten the hair to seven pitches – if that’s not enough, must – in order to achieve the desired Blond – a second pass will be made. The result is then a gold-orange, which must be re-edited (for example, by color or tint). However, this is the earliest the next day possible, because two times in a dyeing hairdressing meeting is not possible due to physico-chemical reasons.

The disadvantage: Individual hairs are two or three times bleached, since they can not be separated exactly from the not yet brightened when re-bleaching. This means: The hair color is at the end of different blonde tones together. Plus: Individual hairs are more strained than others.
Method 3: From brown to blond on the approach
Only the approaches are brightened Pro hairdresser session until sometime the entire hair is blond. At the end of the cropping is up to the fifth degree brighter, but no one’s noticed, because it was bleached for several weeks or even months. No fear of visible transitions: Since modern hairdresser color is no longer superimposed in her hair, no one notices, that was lightened in stages. The downside: This method is not suitable for longer hair.
From blond to brown: How harmful is that?
Sure, bleaching is not a spa for the hair. But how harmful is it really? “It can be difficult to generalize, since it depends on the hair and on the Blondie approximation method,” says Scarf. However: The longer the bleaching itself and the lower the hydrogen content in the Blondie agent, the less the hair will be damaged and the clearer and more beautiful, the blonde. Overdyed dark hair can even be good for bleaching, namely when doing the excess, artificial pigment is removed. Then the lightened hair is easier and silky.
