Bleaching thin layers of hair?

so im going for this look where theres some blonde underneath my black hair and a tiny thin layer of blonde on top of the black.

SINCE im not dying a huge thick amount of hairs on top of my head, would you think it would be easier to get to blonde (with occasional applied heat)?

please let me know what you think.

im planning to do this tomorrow so i want to know if it would be easier to bleach a very thin layer of hair compared to a full head of hair? :s

Bleaching thin layers of hair?

About 6 months ago, I used a semi permanent dark brown hair dye on my honey blonde hair.

Then I decided I wanted to go to blonde, but blonder than before. I made sure I got it done by professionals at a slon. It has cost alot of money and alot of time, but you NEED to get it done professionally. Bleach is very tricky. It's all about timing and the strength of your hair.

Also remember to be careful as black hair is the hardest colour to get blonde. You'll need to go through an orangey-red stage before you get to blonde, if not, your hair will become incredibly dry and brittle, or just plain fall out.

Even if you are dyeing thin strips of hair it will take just as long to "lift" the color. Be careful with this or you will end up orange and black just in time for Halloween!!!

My hair is somewhat like the look you are going for except the opposite way around. I have blonde on top and dark brown underneath. But to answer you ? Yes dying thinner/lesser hair is easier to turn it then a whole bunch/chunk... What it really is, Is that you dont get that dramatic look of going from a whole head of dark to this whole head of yellowish/brassy blonde. G/L

Do NOT apply heat. Heat makes the bleach damage the hair even more!! It'll take longer (I got about 8 panels done in my hair, and the bleach was in for the WHOLE entire Anchor man movie at the salon I go to)... but in the end, will be less damaging. DO NOT use 40 volume developer, it make be tempting, but don't!!! I would stick with a 20 to 30. I generally use a 30, because I have really dark brown hair. After watching Anchor Man. (:P) if the hair has some yellow/brassy tones, you can pick up some toner to tone it down. Or you can add a small amount of purple hairdye to get rid of it.
