After!

Today Darcie and I went to Priceline and bought products to DIY Ombre Darcies hair! We decided to do a brief post on how we achieved the end result. We used L'oreal Paris Perfect Blonde creme bleaching kit and mixed it in a bowl that came is Pricelines salon kit. We also purchased a larger tint brush and a toner from Schwarzkopf, but didn't need to use the toner today. If Darcie's hair becomes brassy she can use the toner when needed. 

First we researched DIY Ombre blog posts and Youtube tutorials, the ones we watched/read include Zoella's  , FashionRocksMySocks and ThePersianBabe.  

We set up everything in the bathroom ( make sure you have a window open as the bleach smell is really strong ) and we both changed into old clothes. We put an old towel around Darcies shoulders and placed foil underneath the ends of her hair. We then 'painted' the bleach onto her hair up to about two inches from the tips. We folded the foil and let the bleach develop for the instructed amount of time then rinsed with warm water. We then placed new sheets of foil underneath and painted the hair for the  second time but brought the bleach up higher and left it on for a shorter amount of time. Then Darcie rinsed it out with the supplied conditioner and dried it. The end result was amazing !! We were very happy with how it turned out!
