discussion Have you ever bleached your hair?

[єѕℓαм]

**** no 

[John Slayne]

yes but not by myself. i've been going to a salon every ~5months for the last two years, i love being platinum blonde but i'm scared to do it on my own lol

[SapphireSky]

Once in 2019. My hair hasn't been the same since

[YourFavoriteWeapon]

Yes and it's not worth it because it makes your hair feel like ****. I also get embarrassed whenever I see gays in their late 20s or 30s doing it because it's giving identity crisis.

I've thought about it, but I love my hair too much to actually go for it.

I've done it three times. Most recently at the end of last year where I buzzed and bleached it, I really loved the look tbh. I would've kept the look if I didn't have to be interviewing for jobs because I didn't want that to be a reason why I was not wanted for a role.

Thankfully my hair grows back fast and is healthy so I had no problems with getting it back to normal in about two months

I'm currently job hunting as well. wonder if it could be a red flag to have bleached hair.

It really depends on what your career is tbh. If it's creative or some type of marketing it should be fine. I'm working at bank now so that's a definite no-no, although they are fine with my nose piercing.

I'm also working at a bank now. remote though so they don't see it as often.

yes, for a summer and it was a literal nightmare, my hair turned green in the pool 

[Purple Land]

feel like it's almost impossible to maintain it if you don't have light hair already... after the third or fourth time the hair is gonna break

[Sabrina Carpenter]

i get my hair bleached often to maintain my ash olive brown hair 

[cognitus.]

I have bleached, but not my hair. Does that count?
