Hello! I really need help. I'm 15 and my hair is dark blondish brown, and it's very thin (but healthy). I've been in love with colorful hair for a long time, and I'm starting to really consider dying my hair in a darkish pastel pink color.
I think my hair would look good full on pink but I don't want to dye it all yet since I'm not sure if I'll pull it off and it's quite a ridical change, so I'm thinking of dip dying my hair (and bleaching in order to do so), just that I can cut it off if I really regret it or if my hair gets really damaged (eventhough I'll take good care of it).
However, I'm scared, because I love how pink tips look on straight or wavy hair, but I never saw anyone with my curls (they are also always different, depending on whether they air dried or not, or get rain, etc) and if may look bad.
Btw, I don't really want to straighten my hair since it will damage it, like bleaching isn't bad enough. Also, my hair never remains completly straight for more than 20 minutes (and that's a strech).
Sorry for the long text, here's a photo of my hair. Thank you so much for the help! 🙂
EDIT: I just reallized I didn't say exactly what help I nedded. Do you think my hair would look good with pastel pink tips? Thanks!

Colourful curls can look gorgeous.
You will only have to bleach your hair once to get it light enough for pink, I would use 20 vol peroxide and a really good bleach powder and apply over coconut oil. You will get minimal damage that way.

Thank you for your opinion. I'm thinking of using crazy color hair dyes and bleaching kit, do you have any experience on that brand?

As Wicked has said a 20 vol peroxide would be best as it's not too strong, Crazy Colours bleaching kit comes with a 30 vol I believe, which would be more damaging. Crazy Colour dyes are okay, I'd choose something like Adore they have a good range of dyes & I find they have good lasting power on my hair. Other people also have good results with Adore.

Before you do anything I'd check that your school is ok with it. I dip dyed my ends turquoise when I was about 15 and my school was not ok with it at all and I dyed my hair back to brown ( Although they were fine with my having a few pink streaks in my last few months at school).
If they're ok with it, I'd say go for it! Coloured curls are gorgeous

I don't think I'll check with the school. Iif there were any rules, they would "advertise" it right? Plus, there are girls with deep red hair, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with pink, right?

A lot of schools forbid 'unnatural' colours, so you can get away with reds, burgundies etc but they may deem pink to be a step too far. Look up the uniform rules, usually there is a statement about hair, both styles and colour.

There is no uniform code and I NEVER heard about anyone being approached due to clothing/hair issues. However, my mom's a teacher so, when I ask her to dye my hair I'll know weather or not I can.
Thank you all for helping me in this!

I know these are wavy and not quite the right colours but gives you an idea of how gorgeous it will look in yours!

Schools dont tend to advertise the rules. They expect students to know them.
I always though it was silly that they would allow me red and not pink but red is for some reason considered a "natural color"

My school had a ridiculously set of rules and regulations, governing stuff right down to the colour of our hair bobbles, and then the headmaster would make other ones up when he saw you doing something he didn't like. Power crazy power tripper
Of course he ended up being put in prison for diddling £50K from the school fund, so. :laugh:

*off*
We had some strict rules & others quite relaxed. We were allowed brightly coloured hair, but I was once made to remove all my makeup in a food tech class as I "was wearing too much" then again in a maths class & told my skirt was more for clubbing & told to colour in the blue stitching of my Kickers black (that teacher was told exactly where to stick her black marker) But turning up to school with in your face hair was fine, I even went in to school in my own clothes & nobody batted an eyelid which confuses me as to why they moaned about my skirt :-
Anyway after my year left, the school got a revamp & you wasn't even allowed to wear lipgloss! So I'd imagine they really came down hard with new rules.
