1. Have It Colored Professionally

If you are going from a dark shade to blonde, it is recommended to have your hair colored by a professional stylist. Depending on the color and general health and condition of your hair, you might need to have your hair stripped or bleached. And this might take several appointments before you can achieve your desired color. It’s simply too risky to try to color it on your own as you don"t want to end up with a funky shade of red, orange, or even green. Better play it safe than sorry and consult your stylist!
2. Use The Right Shampoo/Conditioner

You should use professional styling products, especially shampoos and conditioners to keep your color from fading as well as to keep your hair from drying out. It is best to use products designed for blonde color treated hair and those that are free from sulfates.
3. Don’t Wash Too Often

As with any hair color, you should only wash your hair once or twice a week to prevent the color from fading. You can use a color safe dry shampoo and leave in conditioner between washings to ensure that your hair is healthy and clean. You should also rinse your hair with cool water to prevent fading and to keep your hair from breaking or becoming brittle and dry.
4. Protect Your Hair From The Sun And Chlorine

Sun can wreak havoc with your gorgeous blonde locks, so you should wear a hat if you are going to be exposed to the sun for any length of time. Also, if you are going to swim, you should wear a swim cap to protect your hair from being damaged by chlorine. After you swim, you should deep condition your hair to restore moisture.
