Hair History


Throughout the years, I have played with my hair ALOT. I think I have tried every hair colors that I possibly could. (Natural color wise)
I don't know why but for some reason I was just never content with my hair. I changed it every 2-3 months.

My hair is a natural level 3 medium brown. 
I think the first time I dyed my hair and start playing around with bleach was my first year of high school.


This was the first time I changed my hair dramatically. I went from a level 3 medium brown to level 6 golden/caramel blonde . 



 After that, I decided to dye my hair a red velvet red. I had this hair color for literally 2 weeks. It faded so fast and there was no way in hell that I was going to dye my hair red every 2 weeks

 After the red I attempted to go back to my natural hair color. This shade is close to my natural hair color but it's a bit lighter
 I got bored of the brown and decided to add chunky blonde highlights in my hair



I kept adding more and more blonde highlights until...



I went straight full platinum blonde.

I kept the blonde for about a year and a half. I had to bleach my roots every three weeks until my hair could not take bleach anymore. I'm surprised that I still had hair left. My hair was very damaged and porous at this point. My hair would take HOURS to dry due to damage.


I had to dye my hair dark to disguise my falling out hair and nursed it back to health. However, I could not let go of the blonde so I had an ombre hair for awhile.

Present day:

Today, I have jet black dyed hair and I am planning to keep my dark hair for awhile.
I think out of all the hair colors I have had, this is "my" color.
My hair have came a long way to revive from the damage that bleach has caused but it is back to healthy.

I do have to re-dye my hair every 2 months because my natural hair peeps through but I don't really mind. Every 2 months of retouch is better than retouching my roots every 3 weeks.

My hair is so shiny and shiny looking.
I don't know why I haven't thought about dying my hair black before.


I do miss my blonde hair but I am never putting my hair through that ever again. shrugs


Thank you for looking!

John Frieda Go Blonder Shampoo and Conditioner Review


Alright, I know I said I was done but I guess I just cannot stay away from blogging.

I have been hearing a lot of good reviews about this product from other fellow blondes. So when I was at my local drugstore I decided to pick it up. Plus, they were having a Buy 2 get 1 free so I decided to pick up Go Blonder duo and the full repair since my hair needs it badly and...well...it's free haha


My hair is pretty platinum blonde

To be honest, my hair is as light it could be. I don't really care if it could get any lighter and what not. I cared most about the health of my hair. I heard this shampoo makes blonde hair healthier and I thought it was going to keep my hair color and act as a toner.


can I just say that this is THE WORST of the worst? 
This made my platinum blonde hair YELLOW and dull. It did the opposite for me and instead of making my hair healthier, it made my hair more damaged...not really damaged but when I get out of the shower, my hair is so dry and tangled.

Also, when it dries I feel like my hair has glue in it. I like to curl my hair a lot and let me just say that John Frieda Go Blonder + Curled hair = bad idea.
It was so hard to detangle my hair and just this shampoo made my hair worse than when I bleach it.

To top it all off, This product gave me chemical burns. I have no idea why since it's ammonia free and peroxide free. I would have these weird looking rash on my neck. I have never tried a product that is so horrid.

I have no complain about the full repair though.

I suggest you stay away from this product. But then again, I am a bleached blonde, I dont know how it works on a natural blonde.

So If you are a bleached blonde, I wouldnt even touch this product with a 10 inch stick. It will make your hair dull and yellow and makes it even more damaged. I also had an allergic reaction which is just a straight NO NO NO
the only good thing about this is the smell.


I would give it 1.5/5 stars

I am so returning it. It's such a dissapointment.

HAVE YOU EVER TRIED JOHN FRIEDA GO BLONDER PRODUCTS?
