Bleach. It’s a powerful tool that can lead to significant damage when placed in the wrong hands. At-home bleaching is seldom a good idea, as proven by this Insta showing one woman’s hair broken off in the front as a result of too much bleach. Kenzie Powderly (@kenziepowderly), owner of The Hive in Ozark, Mo., saved this client’s hair with an ashy blonde color and corrective cut. Check it out!
