Can I safely dye my hair?

My mother bleached it with kalidescope w/ 40 vol developer. Now my hair is orangy at the top and almost white at the bottom. It feels like straw and has no elasticity. I have tried hot oil treatments and this packet of conditioner called Ion that the beauty supply store said would help but it still feels horrible. When we rinsed the bleach out some hair came out also but i am not sure if this is from damage since i have been losing hair recently. I want to dye my hair red with hydrience 2 RR Scarlet Shimmer. I am worried that my hair will fall out if i do this. Any advice?

Salons are places where professionals will deal with any mess they or you might make. What I suggest is to remember not to use 40 volume anymore, or to leave it in for a shorter amount of time. What happened to your hair is the cuticles were lifted and the melanin protein in your hair was removed. It is common to have really unhealthy hair afterwards, there is no way around it. Dyeing your hair afterwards should be safe (as every single semi-permanent dye suggests bleaching and every guide to dyeing does as well) as long as you be careful with it. Be sure to include a lot of heavy conditioner in your shower routine for the next few months, just in case. Good Luck!

After the bleach application wait at least 48 hours and sleep in conditioner. Buy infusium leave in conditioner and wear during day. Wear a ponytail if you have to school etc..I would not put Hydrience on it most likely it will grab the base color and you could end up looking like a carrot red head, with black ends or fire engine red. Go to the drug store and get a Natural Instincts in a light neutral or natural blonde. Apply to roots for full 10 minutes than pull through the rest of the hair for about 3 minutes. Rinse hair til water is clean and put conditioner that is in the package and leave on for the recommended time. Now is NOT the time to go red.

Bleaching your hair is never good for your hair, coloring it is bad enough but bleaching is worse, and doing it with bleach that isn't for your hair is well... I wont go on. Go in and have someone actually look at it. Getting something from a supply store isn't the best eaither because most of those people just read it off the bottle anyway, you need someone to actually look at it.

Ion conditioner never helped my hair. The ONLY way you can safely dye your hair in this condition is to use a SEMI-permanent hair dye. This means there is no ammonia, no peroxide, just pigment and conditioners.

Go get some good conditioner (a hair "mask") and put it on your hair, rap it in a towel and leave it over night. In the morning rinse it out. Your hair should feel a little better. Do it weekly and see how it goes.
