Will Bleaching Hair Make it Fall Out?

Hi, my hair doesn't react to chemicals well but I really want a lighter color in my hair. But if I have to bleach it first, my hair might fall out because of it. So what do I do?

If you're afraid your hair will fall out, you have two choices.
Risk losing your hair or keep your hair. Is having a lighter hair color really worth it?
Instead of coloring all of your hair a lighter color, why not opt for a few lighter highlights instead. If you use a color cap, you will protect your scalp from getting too close to the bleach at least.
If your hair color is not too dark, you may be able to lift your hair to a lighter level using hair color instead of bleach. (Use a high level hair color with a high lift peroxide.) (You'll need to do
strand tests to determine if color will work or not!) If it does, you can avoid bleach completely.
