Jerome Russell BBlonde Hair Lightening Kit*

Hey beauties,

You may have seen in yesterday's hair care post that I mentioned that I had spent an evening going blonder. 
That was thanks to the lovely Dannielle over at Jerome Russell. I had been thinking of going full on blonde and getting rid of my highlights for a little while, and when she emailed me asking if I would like to try out one of their products, of course I said yes! 

For the past four months or so, I have been using the Jerome Russell BBlonde highlighting kit. It's the best kit I've come across in my many years of hair dying, so I figured I'd give the hair lightening kit a go to try and lift the darker patches in my hair. 

After telling Danielle about the length and thickness of my hair, she sent me three boxes of the lightener for use on light/medium brown hair. My natural colour (regrowth) is a very dark mousey blonde, and the other patches in my hair were a brown shade, so I thought this would be the perfect kit.

I set to applying the product to my hair and ended up using a good two and a half boxes worth of product. I probably could have gotten away with two, but I wanted to make sure I hadn't missed any patches. 

The kit says to leave on from anywhere between 20-60 minutes. I gave it only 10 minutes after I had finished applying and massaging the product through my hair and then rinsed. The shampoo included in the kit works well to help remove all of the bleach from the hair. I then followed up with a hair mask as I knew my hair would need the extra moisture. After years of hair dying, I like to take extra care not to create any excess damage. 

If you would like to see the results and my over all thoughts on this product, I recommend you watch the application and review video below. If you don't have time to watch it right now, then all I shall say is wow. This product is just as amazing as I thought it would be. 

Just like the highlighting kit, this is a product I will most definitely be using again in the future.
I have since followed up with the blonde shade of my dreams and I honestly don't think I would have managed it without this kit first. If you are looking to dye your hair a pastel or maybe even a crazy colour, this would certainly be a great kit to use before hand. 

It sells for £5.99 in boots and you can find it online here, along with the highlighting kit I keep on mentioning. 

If you give this kit a go, please let me know what you think of it. I think it's the perfect product to try if you can't afford a pricey trip to the hairdressers. Just always make sure to read and follow the instructions carefully. 

Hope you guys are well!
Sam
