Hi lovelies
Attached is some pictures of my current hair colour after using colour b4 3 weeks ago and bleaching once, with a mild bleach bath following that. I have been coconut and moroccanoil-ing my hair religiously and it actually feels in shockingly good condition!
I've been using touch of silver shampoo and colour crazy platinum toner but I want to achieve something similar to this: http://callinamarie.buzznet.com/photos/28galswhoarepullingo/?id=68530037 for a wedding I'm a bridesmaid at in early August.
First off- is this possible or should I set my sights lower? Attached are some pics of the current colour(s) of my hair!

You will need a white base for a silver that light.
You can get a silvery ash blonde or a darker warm toned grey over what you have now if you don't want to lighten further.

I've actually looked a bit more at different hair and would like a darker, true grey colour like the pics attached. I did a bleach bath last night and then used directions silver over the top but it didn't go grey! It just went a really nice cool blonde. Hellllllp!

Would the Pravana silver work for me now? It's quite expensive so,wouldn't want to get it if it wasn't going to work. This is the shade I'm at after last night's bleaching and directions silver or am I still too yellow

Do you have access to Wella Colour Fresh? If you do, they have great silvers and greys that are very neutral. Pravana Silver is very blue and does not give that ashy grey look.

Yes 🙂

I'm curious as to what products you used to bleach; on my monitor it looks like your hair lifted only maybe half a level. The main reason I'm asking is because I don't want you to cause serious damage trying to lighten hair that might be permanently stained from previous dyes.

Yeah it hardly lifted at all last time. I think I mixed the bleach bath too much :/
I ordered some pravana silver and it's here!!!!!

Ah, OK! I'm excited for the silver! Good luck!

Well this is what we've got! I mixed it with a tiny bit of conditioner just so it went further, and left it on about 3 hours. Think I shouldn't have left it on so long as it's gone quite blue, which I'm hoping will fade out in a few washes,,but otherwise I'm quite happy 🙂

It looks great! IME it fades more blue, but I have only used it on a pretty much white base.

That's a really nice result
