Addie McNab asks :
I currently have dyed red hair, but am thinking of going platinum blonde - any tips as to how to achieve this without ruining my hair?

Making such a drastic change to your hair is unfortunately going to cause some damage.
Even Jennifer Lawrence admitted that she chopped off all of her hair because it was damaged so much from dying - she changed her blonde hair to a very dark brown for her role as Katniss Everdeen.
It doesn't really help that red is one of the hardest colours to get out of your hair either.
I would advise taking it to a brown shade, which will take a lot of persistance because the red colour will keep on coming through. Once you've managed to get rid of this then look to blonde.
But it's important you speak to your hairdresser as they will be able to see if your hair can handle going such a rigorous change.
