    Wonderful Bleaching!

    I want to share my experience with the hair lightening kit volume. I had a very dark root, almost black, and I was nervous about how it would go to bleach it. But I was really positively surprised! The kit worked super well and lifted my dark roots significantly. The result was much lighter than I expected, which was fantastic. After bleaching, I used the toner Igora to tone down the orange tones that can sometimes occur after bleaching. The toner’s formula was easy to apply and gave me an even and nice color. I am really satisfied with how my hair looks now, and I feel that I have gotten the shine back without damaging the hair too much. I highly recommend both the bleaching kit and the toner to anyone who wants to lighten their hair in an effective way! #lykorewiew

    Washed?

    Hey! I read that the bleach should go on freshly washed dry hair. But does freshly washed mean with shampoo and then dry? Or should you use conditioner after the shampoo?

      Hey idanilsson188! 👋🏼 Volume 30 = 9 % Volume 40 = 12 % These volumes and % refer to how strong the hydrogen peroxide is, it’s what lightens the hair when you bleach. The higher the percentage, the more lift you get, so a lighter result. But! It also means more damage to the hair, especially with volume 40, so it’s important to consider the hair’s quality before you choose strength 💛 Have a nice day ☀️

  • How many kits?

    Hi, I’m considering buying this to bleach my hair at home, but I’m wondering how many packs I need. I have hair down to just below the bra strap.

      Hey Tuva 🌼 It's so great that you're doing a little research before you start with at-home bleaching – it can save you both time and unwanted results. When it comes to how many packs you need to bleach your hair at home, there are several factors to consider. 🧴 The number of packs depends on: -Hair length – Hair that goes just below the bra strap is considered long hair. -Thickness and density – If you have a lot and/or thick hair, it will require more product. 🔍 Recommendation: -Normal to thick hair: You will likely need 2 packs to cover all your hair evenly. -Thin to normal hair: You can start with 1 pack first and see how far you get, but it's wise to have 2 ready just in case. -Test first! It's always smart to do a little test on a hair strand before you go for a full application – both to see how much hair gets covered and how the hair reacts. Wishing you a great day ahead 🌞

    Body Hair

    Can it be used on body hair? Like on the legs or arms?

      Hi Leah! We can't guarantee how the product would act on legs or arms, but often you might be a bit more sensitive in the skin on your legs than on your scalp! 🥰 Try to test it out carefully in that case and on a smaller area and see how it works for you. Take care!

    Black hair

    Hi, I have black, long, and quite thick hair. I want to bleach my hair to then dye it light brown. Would this product work for me? Or is it specifically made just for toning roots? Thanks!

    Does what it should

    A very good bleaching. I have bleached my roots for about 20 years, like since ancient times, and this one reminds me a lot of the old Mood that used to exist. A blue thick paste. This really does what it should and it goes fast. I am very light naturally, but I don't like that raw light you get after a few months. I bleach my roots about 4 times a year and always just the roots. Last time I used Directions Hair Lightening Kit Volume 40 for the first time and I was really satisfied. It is strong, so I wouldn't recommend using it on already bleached hair, only on the roots. I had it in for about 15-20 minutes. Result is light yellow like with all bleaches, but it usually takes longer to get light yellow with other bleaches, so this one was faster because it's stronger. Then I used the best toner ever, if you want to tone down the yellow and just kind of magically get rid of the yellow, and that is Light Iced Blonde 1010. You can see the result in the picture.

    Application

    Should the hair be unwashed, washed? Dry, damp? There's nothing about it in the instructions. Grateful for a quick response
