Bleaching Questions????

Im thinkin about dying my hair blue but I'm scared of the bleach. Its my first time and I got some questions.
1, How much damage does bleach make?
2, Is there a bleach that dosen't make a lot of damage??
3, I've heard stories that it makes your hair fall out/fry/fade ect. Is that true and how can I avoid all that from happening. That's what I sared of is that it will fall out or fry beause it just got to a good length for spiking and my hair grows really slow. Thanks for the help

Um..I've bleached my hair before, it didn't do much damage, cause alot of hair dye acually helps your hair I think and I dyed my hair right after. But depending on how dark your hair is and what color it is, you could use a verry light blond dye if you don't want to bleach it. I don't think it makes your hair fall out/fry/fade ect, but I condition my hair every time I take a show and I use Organix Tea Tree Shampoo/Contioner, it hydrates your hair, and it doesn't fade my color. Hope that helps

If you don't bleach your hair often, or even if you do, it doesn't matter. Just make sure you keep trimming your hair and shit.
Because the hair on the outside of your head is actually dead, it's the hair follicles you want to be careful of, so it's always best to not dye your roots, even though that can look odd.
All bleach will do the same thing, since it's an organic compound and is highly basic. It will make someone's hair fall out if they dye it like.. every day. And I actually find that after dying my hair it becomes healthier and softer. Don't forget though, it's just hair.
