Keep in mind that most blondes tend to get a tan because with lighter hair it can wash some people out so basically you just wouldn't need to get a tan haha

Well I would bleach it but you could tone it after you bleach it and if you don't like it, bleach it again but I'm not exactly sure if it'll stay toned or not. I had the quick blue and mixed until it was like a frosting consistency. If it's too watery it won't bleach much and if it's too thick it'll dry up faster and won't bleach as much. I'd leave it on for about 45min but check it at 25 and see where it's at and from there check every 5 minutes just to be sure.

About 1:1 ratio so I used a bucket and put about 1.5 oz and one scoop and that worked out for one of the bleached I used. I'm not sure if it was quick blue but I've used quick blue as well as Clairol and salon care.

Yes that color works well. My mom would use it when she wanted red hair but make sure to get a good protein treatment if you don't already have one. I like the Generic brand at Sally's. They have this "conditioner" but it's actually a reconstructing treatment with lots of protein and it'll help your hair A LOT it smells like fresh coconuts too :) it's about 5-6 dollars

Ohh n aurora how should I wear my eyebrows now that my hair is lghter. my eyebrows are dark black n my hair is light looks weird.

If you have had color in your hair before then you need to apply a hair stripper to remove the black color. Or have to bleach it a few times. In the pics your hair still looks quite dark. Did you use a 30 developer? How long did you leave the bleach on? Did you cover your hair with a shower cap or anything? I've heard putting your hair in a cap and blow drying it a little will help it bleach faster.

As for the brows I just bought a hair bleach from Sally Hansen that's for the face and would bleach my brows. They would turn orange but then I used a purple shampoo and then they'd be a light brown

I'm born natrual with black hair, I use blackening shampoos if I dye my hair red or brown n want it to be back to black. its like bigen just water n powder. I don't grow out my hair enuff for my black roots to show.
