Maintain/Create Silver Hair

I am a pure lover of silver hair, and when I get round to it, will always tone my hair back to silver.
So here is my quick tip to getting/maintaining it!

I have extremely light blonde hair, due to this, it can sometimes ( like any blonde ) look yellow!

Now i'm sure most people have heard of/used Touch of Silver Shampoo to get rid of the yellow from there hair... but keep it on for a longgg time and out comes the silver/grey!!

On dry hair, take Touch Of Silver- Twice A Week Brightening Shampoo, and apply all over your hair evenly, I suggest doing this on a night or when you don't have anything to do for a couple hours!
Depending on how silvery you want it, leave it on for atleast an hour, wash off and tadaaaa!


Here is my before and after....

A bad quality photo, my appologies!
This was taken a week ago just before a night out, although a dark photo, you can see how my hair is a very light blonde.

2 hours of toner shampoo left on my hair, and this silvery beauty was born!

The shampoo is extremely cheap, roughly around the £3 mark, but is 100% worth getting.
Even if I don't use it to tone my hair, it still keeps my blonde looking fresh and gorgeous!

Any questions, as always leave a comment below!

It's happening! Lilac/Silver Hair!

So I've been building up to this moment for a few months now!! And finally it's time!! lilac hairrrr!

So this is the dye I've mixed myself. It includes Directions Lilac, and a load of cheap conditioner!

Next week I'll put up directions how to get it to this colour, and include photos of my 'journey' (if you want to call it that) to lilac/silver hair. When I was researching how to get it this colour I found there was lots of information, but no pictures. Lot of websites were telling you to have "pale yellow hair before applying toner "... Ummm, how pale is pale exactly!? So I took photos during and after every dye I applied!

Fingers crossed it helps people who are wanting to achieve that hair colour!

For people who are wanting to know my hair colour before I began to try get it lilac/silver..
I had two colours in my hair. Medium colour blonde, and black.  The black took up a big chunk of my hair though, so It has taken a few good bleachings to remove it and the ginger tones from my hair!
