Sounds like a bad mom if they're underage lol.
Yes 😂😂
"don't do drugs" "don't have 40 vol"
same thing
Jennifer Adams oh here we go
i wish more hair stylists did this. I don't think us regular folks want to drop 200-250 dollars everytime we wanna color change or a half decent hair cut. I've been dying my hair at home most of my life and all I got from hair stylists was reprimand for not coming to them instead.
To be fair if you mess up you can damage your hair/make the job harder on them.
Yes but paying every 4 months €250,- is more painfull then im getting bald😂😂
Why would they tell you anything? They do this for a living
@@north432every 4 months ? What no you need root maintenance

Sweet thanks
thank you!!
thank u so much !!
THANK U
Thanks. But there is one part he missed, proper care and maintenance after
Since we're all too lazy and forgetful, I've tried to cover most of what he says in my notes and I'm sharing it.
*Prepping your Hair*
1. don't wash your hair before colouring it
2. cover your space
3. brush out your hair
4. Separate hair into four sections - Part hair in the middle (two sections) then further divide the two sections from the apex to the sideways, making it four sections in total
5. Make sure hair is dry
6. No need for oiling
*Mixing bleach or colour*
1. choose correct developer: 10vol for no to little lightening effect, 20 vol changes a little colour on your hair, 30 and 40 vol for really dark natural hair colour
2. Read directions on the bleach as it's different for different bleach
*Applying colour*
1. Don't start with roots
2. Start off with parts that are darkest, still don't do roots first
*Application method*
1. Make sure gloves are on
2. You need lots of bleach
3. Start at the back taken from one section.
4. Spray water before covering hair because you don't want the bleach to dry out
5. Don't comb or brush through bleach
*After application*
How long to leave the colour on for?
1. Permanent colour: As the directions say
2. Bleach: 45 mins-1 hour. Not beyond an hour.
3. Wash out the back before the front, wait for ten minutes, then come to the front part.
*Cleansing*
1. Use lukewarm water and not cold water
2. Do not scrub your scalp with nails and tips of your hand. Be very gentle
3. Most of the time it takes two washes to take all of the bleach out of your hair
*Evaluate the situation*
Decide on whether your hair can handle more bleach?
*Toner*
1. Don't use permanent colour as toner. It has a lot of chemicals like ammonia that can cause further damage.
2. apply toner very fast.
3. Choose your toner colour correctly
Use a darker toner
4. Level 1 toner- darkest; Level 10 toner- lightest.
5. Leave toner for the prescribed time; not too long and not for short time
6. *Purple shampoo is not a toner.*
*Finish and style!*
Use proper hair products to maintain and take care your new colour.
May the force be with you! ❤❤❤
thank you so much! 🥺
I appreciate you so much! Thank you beautiful human ❤️❤️❤️
Tnnnxxx so muuch 😍😍😍🙏🙏
You don’t know how thankful i am for thisss
@@chipstealer.-. You're welcome! ❤
I sat down in the middle of the hair dye section in Walmart and watched this video fully before I bought my hair dye! This video saved my hair!
Couldn't have saved too much if you still bought dye at Walmart...
as someone whos colored my own hair for basically my whole life I love how this video boiled down to "Follow the directions the people who make the stuff know how to use it."
I wish I could just like FaceTime him and show him my hair like “BRUH WHAT DO I DOOO”
OMG PLZ I WANT THAT TOO
It would probably be like:
me: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Brad: I told ya 14532 times... Girl chill, you are doing great
... I guess
me: o..ok... It gon be fine. It gon be fine. It gon be fine....
(chattering for more time than we should)
me: Brad, I really think my hair is falling rn. It is ok, right :D
Brad: o_o
He wish he was that friend that came to my house at 1am with snacks and helped me dye my hair while we binge netflix 😩
Lol bruh same Hahahaha
YES!! brad on demand is a MUST! 👏🏻 can we all like petition this? 😂
I WOULD BE HAPPY WITH A FACETIME OR SKYPE !! BRAD HELP !!! I KNOW WHAT IM DOING BUT IM IN SCARED MODE IM NOT SURE IF I SHOULD STAY LIGHT BROWN WITH SOME HIGHLIGHTS AND BABYLIGHTS OR IF I SHOULD GO FOR THE WHOLE BAYSLAGED LIGHT LOOK AGAIN WITH A 7N ROOT TAP HELP PLEASE !!!!
“Don’t make any impulse decisions” Brad, baby, it’s 11 at night on a Saturday - you know what’s happening.
same , i have my sisters over , we've been watching hair transformations all day & night , we're doing this.
OMG my situation rn 😂😂
Seriously!
It's a Tuesday Afternoon for Me...
Me and my friends are litterly dying my hair in the schools bathroom rn
Brad, I sectioned, bleached, and properly toned my hair 2 weeks ago (by myself) and it looks fabulous!! Thank you so much! 💖 Dying it bright fried engine red tonight. This time my boyfriend is helping. :)
How long did it take to get it blonde hon? Like did you do one session and your good? Or was it a couple days? And was your hair dark before?
@@CallMeSkinny if u have dark hair like black or dark brown it might take two sessions and a lot of bleach if you have long hair
HOW DID IT TURN OUT BABES
Soooooooooo if you have boxed dyed your hair lighter can you then use a toner when it’s lightened? The box blonde does have hydrogen peroxide in it, but not a powder.
I used a £2 boxed blonde just out of curiosity on virgin hair (I’m not sentimental for my hair, my mantra: it’s just hair), I’m amazed that it actually lifted my hair lighter! And actually like the rusty look, but want to go a few levels lighter.
I’m just experimenting. In several months time I’m going back to my Lush Caca Rouge Henna anyways (such an amazing colour, been my go to for over 10 years)
It’s spoopy month anyways, I’m already scary, let’s make myself scarier haha
@@timbobsheyou would need to bleach again to lighten a few levels, toner would probably just make it look darker at that point.
My friend wanted a balayage and went to a hairdresser, but left with very thick woven strands some parts weren´t bleached at all. We followed your video (mostly bc how to part the hair) and used a box dye (yes we know) for dark hair balayage. Her hair is virgin without any other products in them, only the bad "balayage". We did so so so freaking good and we wouldn`t have done without your video!
In the middle of the process, we laughed because we should have recorded the whole thing for you. We definitely think you would be proud! After the bleaching we toned her hair down so now she has a really nice cool chocolate brown moment going on, in her natural really dark brown hair. I am so happy how it turned out, it`s just amazing. :D
It was my first time doing any color, I usually only cut hair for family and friends since covid.😊
Brad took the phrase “if you can’t beat em, join em” and turned it into “if you can’t stop them, help them” 😂
Hahaha, true.
It’s called “harm reduction”! Lol
YAS

Yo good looking out man good looking out so was looking for timestamps thank you lol
I was skeptical at first being a guy that just throws stuff on my hair without reading directions. I saw that it was a 22 minute video but you literally hit on every mishap I’ve had in the past it was very informative. Thank you very much.
Okay, so thanks to this video and your curtain bangs video I have gone from a dark brown/red to a shade 7/8 blonde with newly installed curtain bangs. 👌🏻 You sir, are a gentleman. She's a little thirsty so we're gunna be doing a lot of masks, but we got there. 👏🏻
Yes!! So happy for you.
brad is the mom thats like "teenagers drink anyway so they might as well do it in the house!
Weirdly wholesome 😂❤️
I had that mom and me and my siblings turned out remarkably good.
@@adrianagflores5587 same
omg yess
Fr
dye at home
prepare:
- don’t wash hair for several days
- cover your space
- brush hair!
- section into 4 sections: down the middle then from apex (highest point on top of head) down to behind the ear
- make sure hair is dry
mixing your bleach or color:
color:
- 10 vol. does not lift color just applies a tint to hair (i should use for going darker)
- 20 vol. lifts and changes color of hair
- 30 vol. use with brighter colors (lifts hair color)
- 40 vol. like 30 vol., makes colors even brighter
bleach:
- 10 vol. doesn’t work
- 20 vol. 1-2 levels of lift, great to use to highlight hair
- 30 vol. “standard” vol. to use with bleach w/ lightener
- 40 vol. not recommend, if used on scalp extremely likely to burn
*make sure to read directions and get the ratios correct
where to start:
color:
- start with mid-section and ends, then do roots (if you do roots first/at the same time, the roots will be orange)
bleach:
- virgin hair: same as color, don’t start with roots (they will turn white and the rest of hair will be orange-like) wait 10-15 min then do roots
- already colored hair: start with darkest spots first (still not roots) then work your way UP
application method:
color:
- gloves
- you can comb hair
bleach:
- use enough bleach
- put a bag over your head (spray the inside with water) and tie tight (you don’t want the lightener to dry out)
- do not comb or brush through bleach
both:
- start with bottom two quadrants, then work your way up
how long to leave it on:
color:
- whatever the directions say
- normally around 30-35 min
bleach:
- completely varies
- virgin hair (want to go really light): 45min - 1 hour
- rinse out back first, wait about 10 min then rinse out the front
- if you leave it on for over an hour, it’s pointless, the bleach will be dried out
- if worried about hair falling out, pull on a strand from the back and if it doesn’t break or stretch far, you are fine and you can leave it on
cleansing:
- use lukewarm water (cold water causes breakage)
- be gentle: do not scrub scalp with nails, scalp scrubber, etc. use the tops of your fingers
- wash at least twice, more if needed
- condition very thoroughly (hair mask is amazing if you have it)
evaluate the situation (bleach):
- can your hair handle more bleach? if so, go for it! (if below isn’t occurring)
- is it stringy? falling out? super white?etc.
- if the answer is yes, don’t do another round of bleach
*if you used color, you have finished!
toner:
- permanent color is NOT toner
- don’t use box dye to tone hair (for example a blonde box dye)
- mix with anything below a 10 vol. developer (or toning developer)
- apply toner very fast
- use the same level or darker that your hair is right now
- go on color wheel and pick the color across from what it is right now (likely a purple or blue based toner)
- purple shampoo is not a toner
finish and style:
- evaluate (do you want to be lighter? brighter? is this the color you want?)
- be gentle with your hair
- use proper products to take care of and maintain your hair (heat shield, hair oil, etc.)
I beg please help. I got 40 volume devolver by accident. I’m scared to use it please help
this is so helpful thank you!
@@coffin154 me tooo omggg, im too lazy to go out and get another volume developer😭. I think I might give the 40 developer a try... what about you??
@@lay8886 yes!! i did a test strand today and it went well. just make sure you do your roots last because it does burn a bit and you don’t want it In your hair for too long. it activates right away.
@@coffin154 OMG THANK YOUU!! I WAS LITERALLY HAVING A MENTAL BREAKDOWN CUZ I REALLY DONT WANNA GO OUT AGAIN FOR SOME DEVELOPER😭😭THANK YOUUU LIKE OMGG YOU JUST SAVED MY LIFE!! sorry for the rant 😭
I have been wanting to bleach my hair for YEARS but I have always been terrified of ruining it. This video was SO informative! I really wanted a shadow root but wasn't sure what it was called so you've answered just about every question. I finally feel like I have the tools to do it without ruining my hair. Than you SO much and I love you! Love your personality Brad. 🥰🙏♥️
did u do it?
Any updates? 😊
Older video, yes, but thank you, thank you, thank you. I’ve been entertaining a change. In my 60s, a fair amount of gray. I’m not trying to look "younger," just not willing to wait until my 80s for my all my hair to go white/silver. Tried home products over 20 yrs ago with disastrous results. To the salon it was with me! Total respect for all hairdressers out there. That had to stop almost 10 years ago. I just can’t sit in a salon chair that long anymore, not even for a basic cut. Yup, been cutting my own hair. Gasp! Love all your videos.
we finally broke him, he's spilling the hairstylist secrets now.
team DIY wins.
Lesson 1 was like...well my hair dye says to shampoo and then dry before colouring...
As a professional stylist, i can tell you that he gives a lot of bullshit advice. He's hated by stylists not for "telling our secrets", but for spreading misinformation. People doing their hair at home doesn't bother us, because we charge a LOT of money if you want it fixed.
@@sandraross3680 Do tell more.I'm really curious as to what sort of misinformation he is spreading.
@@ryuuu245 Everything from product advice, to basic hair color theory. Take Everything he says with a grain of salt, he doesn't seem like he's ever actually worked behind the chair in a salon.
And you have? Srry but I still don’t see where the misinformation was or is
Brad: “don’t do anything drastic” me: *sitting here with blue hair* “good note... good note”
Im staring at the blue dye
Dye containers on my shelf as i watch this
Same! I just put color on though, nothing permanent yet lol
Oooooh post a pic ive been wanting to go Ivey baby blue!
Me, with blue hair thinking about going back to platinum: sure sure
I dyed mine purple like 3 days ago
I went to bleach my hair at a hairdresser in the UK once.. They put my hair in bleach and the bleach started drying.. and while that happened the hairdresser started to try to BRUSH through my hair.. IT WAS SO PAINFUL (I didn't dare to tell them, I thought they knew what they were doing) and I was getting tears in my eyes all the time it hurt so much.
Omg
Omggg girllll 😭😭
Name and shame them
THAT'S KINDA FUNNY
@@user-ih3rb2kz9k a none newborn baby dying sure would be funny for you huh?
I will be forever grateful for you Brad, I think you are the only reason I have such nice hair. It would be so tricky learning how to color my own hair without you
Every time someone says “don’t do it your hair is so pretty your going to ruin it” it makes me want to do it more just to spite them
No one is gonna live with damaged hair except you if you fucked it up
i thought i was the only one🤧
@@user-dr3nd9td8p yeah but if we're being honest hair is temporary and grows back so do what you want, and feel no regrets!
@@blu3ssy495 well it does take time for it to grow back and I'm waiting for mine to grow rn. I'm just saying if you're gonna do something let it be for yourself not because someone told you not to and you acting all stubborn and childish🤷🏻♀️
@@user-dr3nd9td8p I am joking lmao sorry
“Don’t use 40 volume”
Me: sitting here with 40 volume in my hair right now while I watch this.
Brad: So you’ve chosen death...
ARE U ALIVE
ARE YOU OKAY?
Oh god how does it look
@@jennamomenna5750 hey i wanna do the tips or ends of my hair to light brown , i have virgin dark brown hair should i do it?

Literally exactly the video I need rn. Pray for me! 🙏🏻 Gotta go from brown/red to blonde. 😅 It's gunna be a process.
How it turned out?
I thank you so much. As a mom with an 18month old who cannot find time or money to get into a salon for the amount of time my hair project will require, I absolutely love that you are giving us tips to do what we can...at our own risk of course lol
I love how he uses box dye scenarios because he has no faith in us
is there another option tho?
@@doityourselfbombs umm yeah?
@@tdk2460 during lockdown/quarantine? most hairdressers are closed, and ones that are open you're only allowed in for a certain period of time (example in Australia the maximum is 30 minutes)
@@grimrhiper496 I'm sure people can wait to change their hair colour
@@tdk2460 If you watched the video, he explained that many people want to dye their hair because "they want to feel something new". Before I even knew about lots of people beginning to dye their hair and it somewhat becoming the new quarantine trend, I sat in bed at 12 am and decided "I'm going to dye my hair black" and did the same day.
Life is boring. We'll be in quarantine fir who knows how long. Nothing wrong with getting experimental, especially if its a first time and people won't see if it goes bad. Can always do it again! That's what's so great about hair. It grows back :)
Brad is that cool aunt who is giving you the *real* dating advice you need. But for your hair.
yeah it's like at the family gathering when everyone's at the table "DO NOT BLEACH YOUR HAIR AT HOME KIDS" but then you meet her alone in the kitchen when she's pouring herself another glass of wine and she's like "ok Cady listen, here's the tea, imma tell you how to bleach yo hair gurl"
Yes but what I really need a haircut more than anything! All the salons and barbershops are shut down here in the UK!!!
Eileen Gold I can‘t 😂😂😂
@@jojofc88 There are some channels who show you how to cut hair with graphics. How the hair would fall in a certain angle and stuff. Those are pretty cool. I use them to cut my side fringe
My cousin is so like this!!
Whenever I'm planning a fun weekend of fucking up my own hair, I always come to Brad's channel first 🙌
Here I am finally stepping away from box dye and went to Sally's got my hair color. My mother, former hair dresser, was going to dye my hair but got ill. Brad Mondo helps give me the confidence to be successful. Thank you Brad!!!
Brad: don’t wash ur hair for a few days before bleaching
Me who hasn’t washed my hair since quarantine began: perfect
Eliza Makhdoom loll
same tho-
my ‘quarantine’ started a month ago
Ew i hate that feeling of oily hair. Like, how do you survive?
I wash my hair every 4 weeks! I dont really get oily hair and i can get away with putting into french/dutch braids or just a messy bun! I hate washing my hair since it fell out a couple years back! So i give it a good wash and hair mask and my hair has never felt or looked so good! Haha
brad: "DONT START AT YOUR ROOTS!"
everyone on tiktok: 👁👄👁
Love Brad. He is just so much fun, has a great attitude, is kind. and very engaging, informative.
Ahhh....yeah. Refreshing my memory when I had to read up in the text books about this. It's amazing how many people don't understand how colour works versus your hair. Thank you Brad 🙏
“Everyone wants to do something drastic to their hair just to feel something” 😭😂 that needs to be framed somewhere.
I shaved it this summer LOL
@@elisallacasuperlaca4195 I shaved it last april, and honestly I might do it again now lmao
Haha this will be my caption next week when I get my hair dresser to dye it bubblegum pink
Ye feelin called out, that is exactly why im here lmfao
Those goddamn emos
Bleach instructions, typed out with notes:
Don't bleach your hair after it's freshly washed - oil on your scalp protects you
Prep: clothes you don't mind throwing away
Cover floor, etc. with old towels
GLOVES
1. start with dry hair; Split hair into 4 sections
2. Mix:
- Developer:
20 volume: 1-2 levels of lift. great, basic, does the job but still safe; better for scalp
30 volume: RECOMMENDED; higher lift, higher risk; ALSO lifts/lightens previous fake color
- lightener/bleach: read directions, follow ratio instructions!
Application:
3. Start with mid sections and ends. Wait 10-15 minutes, do scalp
- start with darkest color spots
Start at bottom/back of hair, working up
4. Put a (plastic?) bag over hair, tie it up
- spray a little water inside (steamy so it's not too drying)
5. 45 minutes, check because it varies
- Monitor process!
Rinse:
start in back
LUKE WARM WATER (not cold, it shocks the hair, causing breakage)
Gentle yet thorough, don't use nails/don't scrub your scalp
Usually takes 2 washes to get all lightener/bleach out of hair (if it's gritty, wash it again) - (purple shampoooooo baby)
Toner: lays on top of hair cuticle, healthy for your hair
Apply right after
(You can only use the same level of hair darkness OR go darker: for the use of Toners)
Not used to lighten hair, just corrects the TONE in the level you created with the bleach/lightener
NOTE: first time options
- DO SCALP LAST (start by not doing scalp in first session, come back to if a few days later)
do NOT comb/brush it through
Use a lot - you don't want it to get spotty (if you're concerned for your hair health, leave it on for less time); coat it in there
Note: Bleach doesn't lather like shampoo
It always looks whiter before rinsing, will wash out and look more yellow than you think
CONDITION/HAIR MASK to help scalp after
Your welcome. 😘
Awesome , thanks!!! :) I'm in hairschool and struggling with colour formulas since we're doing the course via zoom now (due to covid, ughh!) , so, no dispensary room full of joico, redken colours, different volume developers, and all the other cool stuff we don't have access to.... no busy salon to learn cuts and colours on clients, no playing around with each other's hair, no swatch books, hairsprays, neat products to try out..that we paid big bux for!!! ....just our text books, mannequins and stands filled mostly with useless perm rods..and meetings via zoom.... I'm watching endless CZcams vids trying to find answers to some questions I have ...... I got 95% on my final exam, but this colour formulating is driving me nuts!!!! Plz help?
Bailey Fink you god
Bailey Fink *print*
Bailey Fink bless you,
Thank you , my mom's hair is dark brownish and she wanna dye her hair blond/brown if that makes any sense , which level/number she should use please and do you have any recommendations? Thank u
I’ve seen some response videos from you on Facebook and I have to say ….. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOU!!!!! I love your reactions, I love it when you point out what went wrong or what was done right. Thank you for making this video. I’ve been dying my hair blue black for the past 10 years now (only at a salon). I used to bleach a portion of my hair and then colour it with magenta. I was browsing the aisles at a chemist and came across purple permanent hair dye. I haven’t dyed my hair in like 8 months, so it looks pretty bad. I had hair up to the small of my back but cut about 10cm off and now I’m going to dye it purple. Wish me luck. LOVE YA!!!
Thank you so much. For this. I was very intimidated by bleaching my own hair but can't afford to get it done professionally. You gave me the confidence to try. I learned so much.
this is like the cool mom who helps her kid get birth control instead of trying to enforce abstinence
👏👏 for real tho
😂😂
Omg facts
😂😂
No way to.explain it better than this haha
“brush out your hair”
*curly haired folks* : 👁👄👁
What's a brush? 😂
for curly haired people: i suggest putting it in braids, it’s good for keeping moisture in there since curly hair is really dry.
Guess I'll use double the amount of conditioner 🤷
laiila you should straitened your curly hair before dyeing it. It will really help the process
Not curly. I don't think you can get any further from curly than my hair, but half the girls I've known with curly, even kinky curly, have an easier time getting a brush through their hair than I do! It's like my hair was MADE for dreadlocks because if you so much a breathe on my hair it mats up! And yet it's BOARD STRAIGHT to point of stylists not being able to keep texture in my hair for more than an hour!
I come back to this video several times a year so I dont f*ck up. I appreciate you Brad. ❤
This was super helpful for me🙏🏾 also I like you, how patiently you explained everything, & how reassuring it all was❤️
Hairdresser’s Guide to Coloring Your Hair
Prepare
1. Don’t wash your hair before coloring
2. Don’t wash it for several days before bleaching
3. Cover your space, floor, counters
4. Brush out your hair, completely detangle
5. Separate hair into four sections. Part your hair in the middle down to the nape of your neck, then make a section from the apex to behind the ears.
6. Make sure your hair is dry.
7. Don’t soak your hair in oil
Mixing Your Bleach or Your Color
There are two different developers
Permanent color is NOT bleach.
1. 10 volume is best for any color and goes darker
2. 20 volume helps with grays
3. 30& 40 volume with permanent color is for high lift color. If you have color on your hair you can’t lift your hair color with more color. You can’t use blonde box dye to lift brown hair color. But if your hair is natural brown you can use the blonde dye to make your hair blonde. High lift colors lift many levels.
Bleach
1. 10 volume sits on top, slightly inside
2. 20 volume is better for highlights
3. 30 volume is best for most hair types
4. 40 volume is a no go, it just lightens very fast.
5. READ THE DIRECTIONS, mix the lightener to the ratio that it says
Where to Start
* Permanent color
* Start at the midsections and ends and then apply root color last. This is to avoid orange roots
* Wait about 10-15 minutes and then go into roots with lightener
* Start off with parts that are darkest
* Application method
* Make sure you have gloves
* Comb through as color is applied
* Bleach
* You need a lot of lightener to get maximum results possible
* Start from the back, at the bottom and work your way up.
* Move the hair around in your palms and avoid the roots
* Spray water inside a bag and put it over your head
* Bleach doesn’t lather
* Don’t comb through bleach
How Long to Leave On?
* Permanent Color: whatever the box says
* Bleach: 45 mins-1 hr
* For platinum: leave on until white looking
* Wash out the back before the front, wait ten minutes, then wash out the front
Cleansing
1. Use Luke warm water, not cold water.
2. Do not scrub your scalp
3. It takes 2 washes, if it feels gritty it isn’t clean
Toner
Permanent color isn’t a toner.
Apply toner very fast
Use the color wheel to pick which toner to use.
Purple shampoo is not a toner
Root and end glaze
Aftercare
Forcefield heat shield to protect against heat damage
Viper Smoothing Oil to rehydrate hair

Madeline Montalvo omg this is amazing
is a developer interchangable w bleach or are they both needed to lighten? still kinda confused if u know
Omg so thorough 🧡 thank you
Perfect! A note sheet! 😉🤓
As a hairstylist, this video was *chef's kiss*
Many people cannot take time or money to go to a salon so this video is super helpful to ensure they do it right
Salons are closed atm anyway
There was a time when I didn't had the money and when I had I was always disappointed after going to the hairdresser...they always do what they want and think is right and they never listen to what I really want... So I just started doing it myself.. I've been cutting it for over 15 years now and dying and bleaching it for 4 years... And I am very good at hiding mistakes in buns 😂😂😂
Self-Care Sam hey I am in this situation money wise....I’m currently a level 2 but Iv used Wella Demi for years now....I figured this would be a good time to go through the ugly stages so.... do you think my hair will lift better since I used Demi? If so how long should I leave it and how long until I bleach it again
Self-Care Sam some people like me pay $250 for a pretty blond balayage yet it turns out like shit. And I went to a hairstylist that had years of supposed experience. Most hair stylists are ass. I could literally do your job
@@NicosW0rld I agree with you. Isn't it sad? It would be nice to find a hairdresser that knows how to do hair.. Only on CZcams. 💛🕂💪😷
You’re a hair god Brad Mondo! I’ve been watching you for years without even the intention of cutting, dying or do whatever to my hair. Just love your clips in Fb and yt vids!
I love it that you start your videos with Hi, beautiful! So.. Thank you so much you handsome devil you! ❤
Brad should just host a zoom lecture so we all can ask him questions and it can be more interactive
Please
I like this idea
GENIUS!!
ej100 Zoom is very bad and can easily be hack to take your info
Yes!!!
Has anyone asked him if he's ok. I mean watching all of us ruin our hair every day of this quarantine
It's probably a mixture of being upset and living for the chaos. He seams to love hair fail videos
"Don't do your hair yourself, but if you're going to do it anyways, record it and *don't* use copyright music."
Brad is tough as nails and while he has a heart, I don’t, I’d totally tell you to do something completely wrong and then say “if this happens, come see me, I’ll fix it!” LOL. NO scruples. Brads an angel.♥️♥️
Your videos are the best!!
Brad thank-you so much, I have had the Dye for about 2 months & I keep being a chicken! Now, however after watching your Video I feel more comfortable & I am actually going to do it today!!! I have always gotten my colour done by a hairdresser so this is new to me & I have waited over a year since I went to hairdresser so no worries of doing to close to when I last had highlights & lowlights. Cheers & you made it fun to watch. Biggest Tip I received was spraying inside the bag to keep hair moist & use the Toner as directed!!!
Greatly Appreciate your Professional Assistance

“Everybody wants to do something drastic to their hair just to feel something” I felt that
Grace Milke I agree with you... if you pay attention, everyone likes their new hair when they have just done it, but the opinion a week after is of sure different
Me: "I'm not gonna dye my hair, i'm not gonna dye my hair, i'm not gonna dye my hair"
Brad: *Hairdressers Guide to coloring your hair at home*
Me: "I'm gonna dye my hair"
You may be human but I’m Dolores Umbridge
RECORD IT
I've been debating for days and I think this is a sign 😂
Lol good luck
I’ve been looking for a reason to NOT dye my hair. Then Brad does this. K I guess I’m ordering some dye and lightener from amazon now
Omg thank you Brad for saving me, I had to find this video because literally so many people including hair dressers have told me to put color on your roots first and I was like nah I swear I seen Brad Mondo saying never to do that and I pulled this video up like SEE. I’m about to dye my hair at home for the first time and I’m trying to make sure it all goes right!! Thank you!!! ❤
Thank you so much Brad!
Bleaching my hair soon, to get my natural blonde color back and because of this video- I now know how to do it!! 😇😇
Preparation:
Don’t wash your hair before colouring
Cover your space
Brush out your hair
Separate hair in 4 sections
Mixing bleach for colour:
10 lift: darkening
20 lift: for grays example
30,40: use bleach if your hair is dyed. might leave your hair differently colour. good for lightening.
don’t use 40 vol
Don’t start with roots
Read instructions for ratios
Use gloves
Permanent colour: mix it up, put it on hair
Bleach:
Start at the bottom, work your way up
Coat lightener to avoid spotting
Avoid roots
Set a timer
Put a bag over your hair with a little water for bleach
Don’t comb, brush, lather bleach
Permanent colour: check your box
Bleach: not more than an hour (virgin hair) you’re good when your hair is pale yellow
Pull your hair to check if it’s breaking. If it’s not then you’re fine and you can leave the bleach more,
Rinse your hair with lukewarm water
Don’t scrub your scalp
Use tip of your fingers
It can take 2 washes to wash all the lightener
Permanent colour is done.
Bleaching : toner!
Permanent colour is not a toner
Don’t use box dye
T18 is not a toner
Use level 10 and toning developing for ash colours
Use a colour toner from the opposite of the colour you’re trying to cancel from colour wheel
You’re done
If you wanna be lighter wait at least a day
Use products to maintain colour
You are like that person at highschool who everyone wanted to sit near to copy your notes. Thankyou for breaking it down ❤️
💗💗💗
Can I ask? If we're start the coloring form the mid until the end first, then when we're coloring the roots?
@@angelinekatarina4019 you do the roots last
@Have You Seen My Lines? what color are you starting out with? If you have darker hair, I don't think that a box dye will lift it enough. It's hard to know exactly what is in a box dye.
You may end up somewhere between blond and brown, which for a lot of people is a really unpleasant shade of orange.
"don't make any impulsive decision"
me at 3am: ehm lets freaking do dis
@@itslyney3044 even better xD
Victoria lmaooo
Just bought bleach and blue hair dye off amazon because I decided to be impulsive.
Hannah Stanley LMAO SAME
You are the most fun to watch of hair! Oui j'adore! Mondo is MVP!
I love Brad so much! Literally saving lives. 😊❤
8 months into quarantine and i’m finally here, wish me luck 😭😭
SAME GIRL
Girls same.
Same
Same 😭
SAME LMAOOOO
each time he says “bleach” you can clearly see him low key cringing because of the idea of someone bleaching their own hair instead of waiting and going to a salon once the quarantine is over.
I almost feel sorry because of what I’m going to do.
love you brad❤️
Yeah, but the quarantine will probably last for another month or 2. And where is the fun in that?! 🤣🤣
lmao goodluck my cousin actually cut her bangs today because of boredom from quarantine lol the quarantine is messing up everyone's head but atleast we all try to stay safe, stay safe and stay healthy everyone!
Aaah I did this 3 days ago. I'm now ginger
@@Mi.123mi it's predicted it'll last 18+ months, but i think it'll be 6-12 months
At least you’re educating yourself!!!!
Thank you so much Brad! Not much knowledge on this but thank you for the detailed information and tips. ❤️❤️
POV: it's not quarantine anymore but you *want* to color your hair at home 😂😂
“everybody wants to do something drastic to their hair rn, in order to just...FEEL SOMETHING“
Brad gets it 😌
I'm about to dye my hair rn, I watched him for so long and this video before and I cane back to get it nicely done
ooh, hope it went well! ༼ つ ◕◡◕ ༽つ
@@aehzyii8876 Oooh thanks for reminding me to update lmao. After we bleached it it was close to platinum blonde, although the ends were still a really pale orange. That's because of the black box dye I used months ago lmao, I am a male and my hair is short. It's only the ends since the other lengths were already cut off when I got a haircut. We're going to dye it silver gray tomorrow and I'm so excited. Hope it turns out well. Oooh it got lighter when I used purple shampoo, I didn't have any toner so I used that and it still looked great except for the ends
uwaaa that sounds so exciting ! good luck (•̀ᴗ•́)و
uwaaa that’s so exciting! good luck (•̀ᴗ•́)و
" I'm not gonna do it girl, I was just thinking about it..."
👀
Maybe👀
im trying to go from red to lavender
I already did it lol
@@aishar.9546 purple is based in red, should be relatively easy.
Currently in barber school learning the color theory. This is totally helpful! Thanks Brad the man!
A friend was going to help me bleach and dye my hair but in the end left me hanging. So glad I found this video so I can do it independently! :)
Everything is explained so well! Thank you for sharing your wisdom 💜
If putting semi permanent color on do need toner
Thank you any ideas of how to apply bleach to back of head by self
“ _Bleach_ doesn’t _lather._ Stop trying to make that happen. It’s never gonna happen”
“Gretchen, stop trying to make bleach lather. It’s not going to happen!” Lolol I don’t try to make it lather but I do try to mush it in so I really coat the strands. No matter how thin my sectioning it it still doesn’t get on every strand if I don’t do that. Bleach or color it doesn’t make a difference. I have to HAVE TO mush in it and pull it through (not with a comb!)
That needs to be on his merch
@@nadiapadilla7262 yess
Let’s be honest, you did not search for him. He showed up to save you from murdering your hair.
yes
Yes, years before I’m gonna be allowed to 😂
So true
I hope so!!
I actually searched it up lol
i'm finally going to do it the seemingly painstakingly tedious way (adhd brain gets bored) this time instead of whatever i come up with that never works. you are a godsend, i've been bleaching almost entirely wrong and it's been frustrating esp since i have super dark hair naturally.
I'm still learning and very confused! But I love you, Brad! What a breath of fresh air you are! 🤗
me: falling asleep to his soft voice
brad: "BLEACH DOESNT F****** LATHER"
He woke up my sister lmao
I swear!!!!!
😂😂😂😂i did too..then was awaken by the shouting of that same phrase..
LMaO
😂
“You can try that at home but don’t blame me” lol basically the mood of the whole video 😂
Hahhaha I know right and the amount of times he says “it’ll be fine” Or “it’ll probably be fine” 😂😂😂🙏
Respectfully, I usually ignore white hairdressers because they often exclude my type of hair. Not only did I see your fun educational bleaching vid review for naturals, you're bright energy feels authentic AND you educate us all. New, happy subbie about to go level 10 New Years Eve using your content to reinforce my bravery. Thank you for being you for us all ❤️
Brad! I will start my hairdresser school at february becouse i fell in love with hair coloring and styleing after watching your videos for years! ❤️😍🥰 love you. Xoxo
HI did it 30 years ago then dogs lol remember the hair cut is so very important
Us: Brad, what will it take for you to let us color our hair at home??
Brad: A global pandemic.
IKR 😂
Pretty much 😂😂😂
🤣😅😂🤣😅😂
He tryna help his hair stylist friends get more customers after the quarantine
He should put this comment on top!!!
Brad : purple shampoo is NOT a toner
me w the purple shampoo I bought to use as toner: 👁👄👁
SAME GIRL I don’t wanna have to spend more money on an actual toner now -.-!!
well at least you got stopped
right?
me with my t18 toner and 20 vol developer i just bought 😭
Guys pls when y try it tell me cuz i want to bleach my hair and i wanna do that
Doing last-minute prep work for Pride tomorrow. Thanks for the beginner-friendly explanations and why the things do what they do!
BRAD, Thank you tons for this in depth, well explained, non-intimidating, and understandable video. I have extremely long hair that has been black box dyed for 16 years. I'm trying to grow out the greys while doing mild liftings on the colored ends here and there to ease up the final process. Now my hair is 1/2 white (white only becuz it's from pigment issues, not age) and the bottom half has been lightened back to roughly my natural strawberry blonde. I'm looking to blend the top and bottom enough to achieve a successful dark rose gold all over look. This video has all the steps I need explained in enough detail that should leave me confident. Sorry for writing a novel! If u actually read this, I'm impressed! Either way I thank u! Wish me luck!
1) Prepare
- Do not wash your hair (make sure it has oil)
- Cover your space
- Brush out your hair (no tangles)
- Use rolling pin to crush the bleach powder nicely
- Make sure your hair is dry
2) Mixing your Bleach / Color
Two Categories: Permanent Color or Bleach
Permanent Color: 4 Options
10 - No lightening, just tones your hair (doesn't cover grays)
20 - Lifts, changes color of gray hair, permanent
30 & 40 - High lift color, for vibrant reds, etc.
(p.s. You cannot go lighter with color, you will only go darker)
Bleach (aka Lightener): 4 Volumes
10 - No lifting abilities (hair cuticle doesn't open)
20 - One to two levels of lift, for highlights or if your hair is already light
30 - The standard! Highly recommended (Esp. if you have virgin hair)
40 - Not recommended, will burn your scalp, do not use
Read the Directions! Every lightener has a different mixing ratio
Mix correctly, make sure there's no clumsiness in your mixture
3) After Prep: Where to Apply?
Permanent Color:
- Virgin Hair: Start at midsections, ends, then your roots!
Bleach:
- Virgin Hair: Start at midsections then ends, make sure it starts lightening for around 10-15 mins before applying to your roots
4) Application:
- Comb through your hair first and section them off
- WEAR GLOVES. PLEASE.
Permanent Color: Make sure the color is evenly applied
Bleach:
- Putting less lightener will not make your hair lift less!
- how to apply/how much: 12:30
- Make sure your hair is coated
- Start with the back, then to the front
- Put a bag with a bit of water inside over your hair to keep moisture in
- DO NOT COMB OR BRUSH THRU BLEACH
5) How long to leave it on?
Permanent Color: Leave on the dye according to the instructions/directions
Bleach:
- Don't leave on bleach for more than an hr! Nothing will happen after 1 hr bc it dries out
- For Virgin Hair: 45-60 mins
- Wash out the back, then rinse out the front after your timer
- Adjust time to your own personal preference!
6) Cleansing
Bleach: Do NOT use cold water!!!
- Use lukewarm water
- Do not scrub your scalp (it's very fragile)
- 2 Washes if you're using a lot of lightener (until the grit is gone)
- Use conditioner/hair mask afterwards
If your hair cannot handle more lightener, STOP!
Your hair good? Continue but MAKE SURE YOUR HAIR IS DRY BEFORE REBLEACHING!
8) Toner (for Bleach)
- Do Not Use Permanent Color for Toning!
- Do not use box dye to tone your hair
- T-18 is not a toner, it's a color!
Optimal Toner:
- Use a Level 10 Toner (Ash Neutral) with a Toning developer
- Figure out your level: 18:15
- Opt for something that is the same level or darker for a Toner
- Apply your Color Wheel!
Orange hair? Use a blue Toner at the same level where your hair is at
Purple Shampoo is not a toner! Do not use it, it will lead to spotting
Leave it on for the recommended amount of time!
Using a Toner that's a higher level than your actual hair will not lift your hair!
Toner can only darken
9) Follow Up:
- Don't make any risky decisions
- Maintain your Color
- If you need to go for a second session of bleach, do it another day!
- Take care of your hair
I hate how I can't copy on my phone and paste to notes...so I screenshotted all of this in one extended screenshot. Oh well. Still gets me what I need. THANKS A BILLION FOR THESE NOTES!!!!

“Don’t make any impulse decisions” , well I wanted one strip of blonde and now I’m currently bleaching my whole head. Brad, you and I both know your audience is 96% of people making impulse decisions.
Sitting here watching this video w bleach in my hair already 😭😭😭 I’m sorry brad
😂😂
@Famke Kuş it went great it took two tones to get it not orange amd then had to cut a few inches of dead hair off but it looks great now haha
@@alimiller6589 what color was your hair before you bleached it?
@@alimiller6589 I wasn't even thinking about bleaching my hair until I started watching this 😅
Just when I convinced myself I wasn’t gonna do anything to my hair in quarantine, this video comes up on recommended.. it’s a sign y’all
Clara Saiz de la fuente we are all gonna come out of quarantine looking busted or beautiful.
that is just temptation luring you in....whatever it is, don't do it lol
If you video it, I will 100% watch.
Leaving comment here in case someone films it and posts it
PurplePuffs but my adhd is telling me to do it
You do a great job! I’ve been watching numerous videos and yours answered a lot of questions!
The best explanation I’ve ever heard. I have such a better understanding now. Thank you!!!

IM SOOO GRATEFUL FOPR THIS VIDEO- I'm in a dorm where my mum isn't around to dye my hair so watching this has helped me touch up my roots so I dont look horrible (im a natural blonde but may hair is dyed black)
I come to this video so often ad it's always so helpful :D
Brad: *Don't make any impulse decisions*
Me at 3am having a mental breakdown: *impulsively cut my bangs*
same
dude same. i’m hiding in my bathroom from my parents and dyeing my hair.
me at 3am giving myself a stick and poke tattoo then instantly regretting it and scratching at it until i get blisters
Yup it’s 2:30 I’m hiding in my bathroom, just cut bangs now I’m split dying my hair just washed out the bleach.
I cut off about a foot and a half of hair tonight. Not sorry a bit.😊
Brad is so smart he knows that we all are sitting at home like “i think i should dye my hair”
Edit: OMG THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE LIKES! I’m actually about to die my hair lol now ik what to do:)
Soooo true!!
