My hair is pale blonde {bleached} and now I want something different {I really change my hair colour like every month or something}. It's in a pretty good condition, it has been better, but it's okay. It used to feel like straw, I freaked out, but after like two weeks it felt a lot better {yeah nów I know there's an article about having hair that feels like straw}.

Anyway, my plans. I wanna have it black and my fringe a mix of cerise, red and pink {or maybe rubine or dark tulip or something, I haven't figured that out yet}. So here's my question, I've heard that permanent black dye on blonde doesn't work and that it turns out green. But I'm gonna use a semi-permanent dye, Ebony {Directions}, so will it turn out black?

Uhm next question. Directions is a conditioning hair dye, so it won't damage my hair, right?
What I also wanna know is, will the black dye bleed and make my fringe darker? If so, how can I prevent that?

So here's a photo of me, because... Uhm, yeah, I don't know why, but photo's are fun haha. My hair's now like a centimeter longer, my hair grows fast -yay!-

    Ebony will go black on blond hair but it fades to blue pretty quickly so be prepared to reapply. You can use permanent black if you're ok with the commitment.
    To stop it bleeding try to wash the fringe and the black part separately. Tilt your head back when you rinse the black and it shouldn't bleed. When washing your hair be careful not to smudge the suds from one colour into another.
