[@BabyBits29]

"...And also what I do *when* it goes wrong." I love your honesty. Hella refreshing :) Great look, girl

[@DeeDoherty]

+BabyBits29 Thank you ;) xx

[@cassiecook6107]

BabyBits29 thanks 4 sharing 👍

[@alexialeanna1359]

I'm so scared to do this at home by myself lol I feel like I'm going to mess it uo

[@alexialeanna1359]

up*

[@lovelyxoxo3748]

Lol same

[@skooz8849]

4 years late but same >~

[@vasudha278]

Well seeing by your pfp you did it 😂

[@anythingspossible.]

She makes it look easy tho😃

[@carystone6141]

just wanted to say... I'm a licensed stylist and even though you messed up, the correction turned out amazing! you really did a great job! I love that little tool you have to do the ombré and I'll be getting one. it was also a great idea to use the mascara wand for the correction. so I'll be purchasing some of those as well! thanks for the video. I watched it so I could show a friend that doesn't live near me, how to do her own hair like this and then add purple to the blonde parts! so big help!

[@DeeDoherty]

Cary Dorsey thank you x you're so kind... I never get nice comments off stylists or hair dressers so you've made my day Cary! Thanks and Merry Christmas lovey!!

[@macho_duh_ishgoat3d366]

Hi!!! I know this is old so hopefully you see it lol but as a licensed stylist this is currently the look I'm going for ... I am wondering what's the best in store or Sally beauty products I can use? I want my hair just like hers I'm just afraid bc she said it gave her an allergic reaction 😬

[@ashleighberry6043]

Any tips on using boxed ombré to get it as good as possible

[@Rainbowhiskey]

This video is very useful, not only did you show how to do it but you also demonstrated how to fix any mistakes if they happen. Thankyou very much, I am much more confident to dye my hair in this style now!

[@DeeDoherty]

Rainbowhiskey thank you!

[@gabriellesours5482]

Her accent is like a mix of American and British.. I love it!

[@harrodslouisvuitton1173]

Gabrielle Oldham I know this is late but omg I was thinking The same thing😂😭🤞

[@izzymcnulty2872]

She sounds a bit more like Irish than English

[@Shayysierra]

Gabrielle Oldham sounds more Irish! It’s beautiful

[@jenelines8471]

It's irish

[@AdriannaKramer]

She doesn’t sound American at all

[@larissawood4363]

Very helpful. My parents finally agreed to let me dye my hair ombre and I've been looking all over KZbin lol

[@DeeDoherty]

+Epic Panda Chick Awww! Great...I'm so happy it helped!

[@rosamariacarrillo7414]

You have an awesome husband to help you out lol. My husband helps me straighten my hair and my dad helped me dye my bangs purple. Those are the good men haha. You got a keeper. 👌👍

[@kandisswilliams2719]

I wouldn't let my bf touch my hair he'd ruin it haha

[@beverlyhilburn2293]

so funny I thought the same thing. I can't get my husband near me when I'm doing my hair. lol

[@rosamariacarrillo7414]

*****​ just saw your comment. But my husband is actually going to let me groom his beard. I even give him clean skin tips and he listens lol. You just gotta wait for that good man.

[@kayra1701]

100th like :3

[@kellytrader3767]

I LOVED watching these after your chemo videos... I have ovarian cancer, and although not the same as yours , I could absolutely relate to your journey, how you were feeling etc. thank you from the bottom of my heart fri doting them... it makers a huge dfference!!!!

[@Carolina-wt6be]

I'm a Brunette also, and I got an ombré done yesterday at a salon and I was shocked to seem so many patches - I also had random bright strands of hair at the top. Blending a brown due seemed to work for you- thanks for the great idea!

[@DeeDoherty]

+Carolina Hashimoto glad it helped! ;)

[@animcrazy]

It starts at 2:00 :)

[@lilylevy4212]

Thank goodness for people like you

[@cpresto85]

Thanks for the heads up! Wish these videos would just get to the point lol (if you know what I mean! 🤨)

[@sammirose0078]

this looks beautiful! I have been to salons and never get what I hope for. I have seen dozens of these videos but like yours the best!

[@DeeDoherty]

+Sami Patel Ahhhh thank you!!

[@brittanyking7732]

Seriously the best ombré video ever. Thanks so much! I was so nervous to do it myself

[@DeeDoherty]

Aw Brittany, thank you!! :) Hope you were happy with your results!

[@JennyofOldStones713]

very nice and that was so sweet of your husband to help correct the color!

[@DeeDoherty]

+MsFlutterby22 haha I know he's so good to me!

[@its_a_vintage_life]

Great video! Love the idea of spot fixing with darker color

[@SandsV]

This video was perfect. I like that you showed how it went wrong and how to fix it. A lot of the videos i have seen, I have seen a lot, do not show this. So i appreciate that you show how to fix it. I think you hair looks perfect. Its what i want to do. I went to the salon to get it done, and I wound up with a straight line across my hair, top half dark the bottom half yellow. I was so upset, I have been wearing my hair up in a bun for like 4 weeks. Last Sunday, I decided to at least bring that yellow color down and I used Clairol Age defy in an ash and a light brown colors that I mixed. It did the trick for now. But i really want to balayage my own hair, I thing I will wait another month before I try to process my hair. Thank you again. Super helpful video.

[@DeeDoherty]

Thanks so much! I used Lee Stafford Hair Growth Treatment!

[@kamilawright4811]

Where I can get it? Thanks

[@gisselleconners7624]

+Kamila Wright ulta beauty. It's really cheap

[@angelina2828]

what kind of ombre is this?

[@olivefraser268]

Dee Doherty

[@samanthasheehan7925]

Dee Doherty where did you get the lightener at???

[@vampi2026]

Thank you for posting this video! I just used your advice to tone down my colorist mistake! I went to a salon and asked or ombre hair, and instead the colorist did bright almost thick highlights at the top. Luckily I found your video to teach me how to fix the bright strands on the top of the head! I was also able to lighten my ends! But you are the only one that post a video like this! Thank you so much!!

[@DeeDoherty]

Shalimar Ramos Aww well I'm SO glad it helped you x That means a lot to me 😊

[@xyriusd832]

that blonde color came out so beautiful I really love it

[@DeeDoherty]

+Xyrius9 Thank you!

[@libbyplatt7665]

Great video Dee thank you. This confirmed that I should pay a hairdresser to do this technique on my daughter's hair as I know I wouldn't be confident enough to do this myself. Also, did n't even occur to me that she could have an allergic reaction to the dye, so grateful to you thanks again

[@DeeDoherty]

+Libby Platt Better safe than sorry!

[@kieraarnson8913]

I think you and your hair are beautiful and I loved listening to you talk!

[@DeeDoherty]

Thank you Kiera 😊😊 I woke up feeling crappy today, so that's a lovely comment to read 😘

[@beverlyhilburn2293]

you did answer my question. I TOTALLY messed my hair up, don't laugh, I tried to cap highlight. I know I know. so 90s but anyhow. I wanted to ombre/balayage my hair. you showed me how to use the brown color to fix it. THANK YOU.

[@Anyoneouthere1]

Your hair turned out beautiful!!! Looks like you went to a pro! Great job :)

[@DeeDoherty]

+Jane doe haha ;) thanks!

[@herbherbert5613]

Your hair looks super pretty!

[@Taratreehugger]

I appreciate how you showed the mistake. Most videos make it look so easy!

[@swankelly]

Turned out beautifully.

[@DeeDoherty]

+Kelly Claywoo Thanks Kelly!

[@Melroksit]

Way to go Hubby!!!! That was so sweet and it looked goo after he helped..

[@DeeDoherty]

Melroksit Haha, he's great ;)

[@KonataStar00]

I actually recommend starting at the back of your head, because I've heard hair stylists say your front pieces will process faster and they are also more fragile so you don't want the product on there for too long :)

[@nicolelaurencaplan6641]

This was so helpful! Thanks for posting doll, and your hair is beautiful xox

[@DeeDoherty]

+Nicole Lauren Caplan Awww! You are so sweet, thank you!

[@cmtmlcmtml]

Just did this end of lockdown and results are superb, thank you!

[@DeeDoherty]

Tara Lewis haha great!!!

[@bookqwueen2289]

I'm actually wanting to ombré my hair this weekend and I really think this video helped! Thank you!!! And wish me luck lol

[@DeeDoherty]

Oh I'm so glad!! Thank you!

[@elsagrace3893]

Awesome video. It definitely helped me. I would have no idea of what could go wrong or how to fix. Your hair looks beautiful now.

[@DeeDoherty]

I'm so glad it helped, Elsa x

[@bobbieanne4844]

Beautiful hair! Can't wait to try this!

[@jwoodall09]

This video was really helpful! I think the filming was fine, I totally understood what you did and it helped a lot! thank you!

[@DeeDoherty]

Jessica Strickland thank you ;) x

[@colleengifford2553]

Your accent is the absolute cutest!!

[@DeeDoherty]

Colleen Gifford haha ... thank you! I feel like I never get positive comments about the way I talk!! Thanks hun!

[@katewell7829]

This it the most beautiful ombré I have ever seen!! You suit it so well 💕💜

[@DeeDoherty]

+Kat Ewell you are so sweet, thank you

[@JamieBarrington]

Wow, your hair looks amazing! It's awesome that the first hair fail ended up working to your benefit, because the brown dye that you added turned out perfectly! I wish I had your hair! 😍 Thank you for both your tuturial and your honesty.

[@DeeDoherty]

Jamie Barrington hope it goes well

[@CharChar523]

I really enjoyed watching this video gonna go watch your other ones now! :) x

[@DeeDoherty]

Thanks so much, you're so sweet ;)

[@amdfriendly1767]

Thanks so much, best video so far that has given me good instructions and "show how." You look great btw! Nice job!

[@DeeDoherty]

+AMD Friendly thank you! *hugs*

[@Rattielicious]

What a good hubby! Let him stand as a good example to all husbands and boyfriends! lol You want your lady to look and feel beautiful, then help her! :)

[@Rattielicious]

oops, forgot to say...love your hair, looks fantastic! Turned out to be a lucky mistake, love the effect! :)

[@DeeDoherty]

Haha, yes he's a good one 😉 there's not many willing to do that!! And thank you for your kind words 😊💕

[@Rattielicious]

'Rent a Hubby' Dee? haha Million dollar idea there lol. (actually think there is a company called that lol)

[@DeeDoherty]

Oh god! Haha ... But no I'm not sharing him, lol x

[@lunadaydream]

Great that you've showed how to fix it, it's helpful seeing a what-not-to-do as well as how-to :)

[@rubylopez8322]

Great video. This was super helpful!

[@DeeDoherty]

That's so nice to hear! I'm glad it helped x

[@lovestolove93]

what this video is telling me is that i could really potentially balayage my own hair without ruining it. yours really looks good

[@DeeDoherty]

lovestolove93 haha! thank u x

[@danmanthaxXx]

You would actually look very pretty fully blonde ! You should try it

[@moonflowermarie277]

Most definitely was useful for me!! I needed to know how to do it, though I'm a redhead, with naturally occurring blonder/lighter parts and highlights - I don't think I'll have too much of a problem with patches. I also bought the same exact hair dye before ever watching your video lol

[@believingvoilets1526]

I would like to do this for my 11th brithday this year but only on rhe slight tips! Thanks so much for uploading! Also you look soo pretty 💕

[@ammaretto]

there definitely is a learning curve to the process. your final look is good. i have the loreal ombre kit & am a bit chicken to try it...lol

[@shikarasky3490]

Your video is fabulous babe! First time trying to ombre my hair, I've cut and dyed in for nearly 5 years now but never this, your video was super helpful and fabulous! Thankyou 😄

[@DeeDoherty]

+shikara sky Thank you ;) glad it helped you!!

[@MayaBee3]

That turned out lovely! My husband is a sweetheart and would help with my hair too. He also hates football because he's more the musician type. And if I ever asked him to help me with my hair, I know he'd do it but I feel like he'd have to watch football just to feel masculine again, haha!

[@DeeDoherty]

Maya Leon ;)

[@Chelleshock93]

My hubby is a cop and helps me with my hair

[@alakiabeharry2325]

This makes me want this on my hair. I don't care and I love ombre hair it looks very pretty on you :)

[@DeeDoherty]

+Alakia Beharry thank you ;)

[@alakiabeharry2325]

Dee Doherty your welcome

[@MsOrangeSoul]

I love how you were able to correct it :)

[@DeeDoherty]

MsOrangeSoul ;) thanks

[@BitchInc]

Your gorgeous and your hair turned out beautifully :)

[@annanamyotova5261]

ur result came out so much better

[@DeeDoherty]

Anna Namyotova if you want more blonde at the end of your hair you could bleach the ends and wrap them in foil. A few days later add a silver hair dye and it will balance out the yellow tone. If your hair is dark an ashy tone will look better. You can see some of my recent colours on my Instagram DeeDohertyInsta. I don’t have long hair anymore so I don’t do these videos anymore!

[@MissMal92]

useful. answering questions most others would not.

[@ciqiy5259]

the result is really good even through you made a few mistakes the overall result is amazing. all the ombre vids I saw on youtube all like a dark colour on top and middle and bottom all in a straight line. but you did it yourselves and still got the balayage affect!

[@DeeDoherty]

Thanks x

[@jemimamoyle5709]

Cool, thanks for the tips! I will give it a go and let you know how it turns out!!!

[@missy4445]

This is especially useful in this quarantine

[@nath6724]

I think it turned out very nice! Thank you for the video

[@korpsnerd]

The color looks very nice! I love your waves! How do you make them?

[@sarhig150193]

Great talk through video :) I've had ombre a few times now and decided to try a more coppery colour shade.

[@aliciabrockenbrow9718]

I'm trying to decide whether to dye the blonde at the bottom or the colour on the top first, and your video helped me to decide to do the blonde, so it was really helpful even without watching you apply the whole thing :) thanks! Fingers crossed I don't mess up my hair! 🤞

[@DeeDoherty]

Alicia Brockenbrow don’t dye the top dark because when that grows out you’ll be dying it lighter and that’s when you get the orange look 😊 Good luck

[@shadylady6728]

I think you are my hair twin😂😂 💕💕💆‍♀️💆‍♀️👍👍

[@jadedk2541]

Thank you! You answered a few questions that I had. two thumbs up!

[@DeeDoherty]

+Jaded K Thank you x Glad it helped!

[@ArtMama34]

[@DeeDoherty]

[@DeeDoherty]

[@clumsy_little_ninja]

[@biljanamicic2328]

[@73bedda]

Love your hair. Well done. :)

[@meg4zill4]

how many ombres gone wrong are there ? scared to attempt this, but you make it look so easyyyyy

[@kamiborisova9831]

Haha, I love it that your husband is helping you! My fiancee is helping me too every time I decide to dye my hair :D He's better than my hairstylist! Seriously, he is! :) And since I'm about to do an Ombre again (I've had it for maybe a year last year, then I decided to go darker for the winter, and now I'm missing it again :D ), your video was very helpful, thank you so much! :)

[@pet_tularhodes3687]

That’s why you backcomb the top layer back first

[@DeeDoherty]

Pet Rhodes ahhhh.... makes sense!! I’m not that talented haha! I’ll try bump your comment to help others! Thanks chick x

[@julierose689]

I new to dying my hair, only been doing it for 6 months and only one colour. How does the back combing help? What does it do?

[@irisfigueroa7334]

I love the video keep doing a great job and make more ombre hairstyles videos and stuff please just saw this video and immediately had to subscribed and like c:

[@DeeDoherty]

Ok I'll try haha! Thanks so much for watching and commenting :)

[@liannahuang3276]

Where is did you buy the black dye applicator from?

[@rebeccaramos6462]

Very nice, what kind of little brush is that? And where can I get one?

[@DeeDoherty]

Rebecca Ramos the brush is from the L'oreal Feria Extreme Ombre box dye! x

[@rebeccaramos6462]

okay thank you for answering me. Blessings.

[@Kattenma]

This is so helpful! Where did you get that applicator brush to do your ombre??

[@DeeDoherty]

It's from the L'Oreal ombré box dye 😊... I keep them! Haha

[@Kattenma]

Great, thanks!

[@alexandriareillo5212]

How long did it take for your hair to grow when you used the Lee Stafferd?

[@isabellschwenn4693]

awww your a cutie! this has to be the politest tutorial ive seen on youtube 😂 helped me get some balls to do my hair myself though! thank you ✊

[@DeeDoherty]

+Isabell Schwenn Haha! Aw thank you! Glad it helped ;)

[@jeanbermond1638]

Beautiful color...I love it. Jomeran

[@amilah123]

Thank you! this video has helped before I do my hair especially the bits that went a bit wrong so I can see what I can do differently.

[@ceciliagarza21]

Where can I buy an ombre kit that you used? I don't think I've seen it before. Your hair came out really pretty as if you went to the salon!💜

[@DeeDoherty]

Thanks! I got the Schwarzkopf in Tesco... I've seen it in pharmacies too!

[@paulasimmons3303]

Thank you so much for sharing this video. I do have the courage to take my hair into my own hands! 😁💖

[@1stepcl0ser]

Thanks, it was very helpful. Your hair is really beautiful! What did you use to make it grow faster??

[@DeeDoherty]

C0l0rMeRed thanks so much x I used Lee Stafford's Hair Growth Treatment!

[@1stepcl0ser]

alright, thank you :)

[@Sugarbaby4JC1]

Your hair looks pretty :)

[@DeeDoherty]

Thank you 😉 it was probably just really good lighting, haha!

[@blabla7652]

how do you curl your hair? it is so beautiful!

[@DeeDoherty]

+Yeldaaxx I have a video on it just check out my channel to find it 😉

[@1818isabellaa]

How long did you leave the bleach in your hair to get it that blonde

[@DeeDoherty]

I actually don't remember, it would have been the suggested time or maybe 10 minutes more than that! I would say it was a max of 40 minutes with the top layer x

[@arianatofu]

your hair is so beautiful!

[@saraal-bayati3836]

I love this totorial! Did you tone your hair after dying it? :)

[@DeeDoherty]

sara al-bayati no, I just use the purple shampoo for toning ;)

[@saraal-bayati3836]

Thank you for the answer :)
