Bleach!

For a first timer, bleaching your hair is a big deal. We’ve all heard the horror stories and the possible of hair damage, breakage, or fried ends can stop someone from ever trying it. On the other hand, lightening your hair can open up an entire universe of possibility. Once you decide to take the plunge, you might wonder how you went so long without bleaching your hair! If you want to avoid an emergency buzz cut, equip yourself with the facts before bleaching your hair. Semi-permanent hair color offers natural hues that fade over time, and permanent hair dyes mix the decoloration and coloring process. Bleach, however, simply oxidizes the hair, meaning it exists solely to strip the color from your hair. It’s a potentially valuable tool in your hair styling arsenal, but it’s also a powerful chemical that requires plenty of know-how to use it correctly.

Bleach is a chemical that removes the natural pigment from your hair strands. It comes in a powder form, and you have several different options of liquid developers to mix into it to alter the strength and make it work. While frying the hair is avoidable, bleach will alter the state of your hair. The first time you bleach your hair, it’s gonna change in texture and in color because you are literally stripping the pigment from it. Don’t expect your hair to bounce back to normal an hour after the bleach comes comes off—but if you have taken care to bleach your hair properly, you can prevent damage and keep it looking healthy.

Bleaching removes hair color through the process of oxidation. Bleaching products disrupt the hair’s cuticle layer to make it more permeable, which allows hydrogen peroxide — a key component of hair bleach — to penetrate the shaft. Hydrogen peroxide oxidizes the hair’s pigment, stripping away the melanin and, as a result, its color. A single bleaching can lighten your hair by as many as eight shades. Use a home hair-bleaching kit or turn to your stylist for a professional application. Depending on how light you want your hair, the process takes 30 to 45 minutes. Oftentimes, color is added after the bleaching process.

Bleaching often leaves hair drier, more fragile and less elastic than it was previously. Its effects make your hair more prone to breakage and less manageable. Because the bleaching process raises the cuticles, your hair may tangle more easily. If you leave bleach on for too long, your hair may turn white. Or bleached hair may take on a yellow tint, as the stripping process exposes the hue of the hair protein keratin, which features a naturally yellow color. Darker hair colors often take on a red tint as keratin shines through.
