Lately, I bought a bubble Japanese hair dye product from Amazon.
I've been dreaming to get this ashy tone in my hair, coz for Asian hair somehow this tone is so difficult to get, the bleached hair would easily become some kind of orange-red color, which is not really pleasant. BTW, I'm so envious of the natural light/blond hair, not that I don't like my Asian hair, just because when sometimes you get tiered of your hair color, you can just simply dye it to all different tones :D
Anyway, I decided to give it a try. I chose this color because it looks just super nice on Nozomi Sasaki (you don't know her?haha)
最近我买了一盒泡沫染发剂,这个牌子还是很流行,他有很多款的颜色,从橘色,红色调到还原色系都有。我真的亚洲人的头发很难上色,而且一旦褪色很容易变成拿着干枯的橙黄色。很不好看。我很喜欢那种现在很流行的灰综色调,就是冷色一点的色系,没有红橘色在里面,所以我跳了这个图上佐佐木希的发涩,很好看是不是?
Well, it took about 3 weeks until it finally came from Japan to Belgium.
Unpack, there are all contents inside the box:
a developer(no.2 solution), an actual color bottle(no.1 solution), a foaming cup so that you can squeeze up the product, a condition pack and an instruction pack with a pair of bubble gloves.
从亚马逊日本寄到比利时花了差不多三周的时间,真后悔当时去日本旅游的时候没有多带点各种药妆染发剂回来。里面有一个染发剂盒和一个显影剂盒,一个起泡器,一度橡胶手套以及一小包护发素。
Good thing about this product is that the process is super easy,
Steps:
1) Put the actual color bottle into the developer
2) Tilt the bottle 5-6 times
3) Use the foaming cup to generate plenty of foams
4) Rub all the foams into the hair as you would shampoo
5) Wait 30m-60m and rince it up until the water has no color more
6) Apply the air condition they provided in the box, which is super good.
操作起来非常容易,吧显影剂加入染发剂里面,来回旋转盒子大概5-6次,换上起跑器,轻捏盒身就会有很多泡沫出来,然后像洗头发一样,把泡沫都均匀抹上头发上面,等30-60分钟,冲掉然后像平常洗头一样的步骤再洗一下,涂上护发素即可。
Then! My result!
Before:
After:
It doesn't look so bad within the sun or nice lighting but inside it would look more orange-brown I would say. Instead of the cool tone that Nozomi Sasaki got, I got more of a red-orange shade.
前后对比,在灯光日光充足的情况下,看上去还不错,但是在正常光的情况下就显得更加黄棕色,还有种红色调在里面。
To sum up, I probably wouldn't buy it again, but instead I will bleach my hair first, by using the decent "Loreal Extreme Bleach Blonde"
that you can find it probably in all stores here in Belgium and I'll definitely need to bleach it more it should because of my dark hair. Then I will use "Loreal Absolute Platinum" or Ash Blonde on top of that. I will share it here again when I start doing that, I will also wait a bit so that my hair wouldn't look so "dead".
总结下来呢,虽然使用非常方便但是我应该不会再回购这款。 但是过几个月我会试着再染成我想要的亚麻棕色。那我会先用欧莱雅的极度漂白先漂几次,再用他家的灰综色上色。倒是我会再来分享。看来亚洲头发还是得先漂漂漂才能达到想要的颜色。
