from black to platinum (hair bleaching routine + maintenance) | Tarek Ali 

OH BTW.. I think I am a mix of 4b & 4c type hair! mostly 4c tbh.

seeing tarek with black hair is like seeing beyoncé with black hair....we’re not used to it😂

omg seeing the black hair looks so taboo LMFAO like its not your natural color 💀

“The reason im black right now”😂

“I don’t have cancer” TOOK ME OUT 😂😭

You look so different with black hair. I’m so used to the blond. Still fine tho!! *2 snaps* lol

taking my box braids out rn about to risk it all...

The Black hair looks Natural on you and makes you look very Young

I’m crine because I’m a blonde this is my process also & I hate telling people my process because they’re always shocked when I tell the process. 😂😂

I really love the platinum on you more because it makes you stand out & it fits your youth❤

I love how specific and particular you are in this video.

Such a beautiful boy whether you’re natural or blond, and those eyebrows are so amazing! STUNNING 😍

Loved your energy and video overall!! Thank you for being so through🙌🏾🙌🏾😊

I’ve been waiting for this!!!

Honestly this video really helped me to achieved my bleached hair goals 🥺 this literally gave me the confidence to make a little DIY video of my own ✨

just came across this channel yesterday and i've binge watched every video , God! I love watching you

I know the feeling. My routine is bordering on the extra side too, but I add a dye phase in as well because I have been doing grey/silver recently

You and Jaden Smith were the reason I tried to go white blond a few years ago! Remember your first tutorial, back in Paris I guess! I admired your bold bravery, and just copied the process! Haha, well thanks for the experience T! Hi from Germany, honey! 😘

My tips for anyone reading in the comments. I use ion Scalp Protector. I apply it on my finger tips and massage all over my scalp, ear, forehead and neck. I apply extra to my ears. I mix blue based bleach with 30 volume developer. I pour in some ion booster after the bleach and developer are smooth like whip cream. Stir some more. Apply with my gloved hands to have more control. Once my whole head is covered, I use the mixing brush to apply more (like filling everything in). I sit with a cap for 40 mins. Rinse, shampoo, blow dry. Next day, do it all over again but lower the time to 25 mins. Rinse, shampoo, dry hair til damp then apply aphogee 2 step protein (get the packages and follow the instructions). Let my hair air dry. Wait 2 days. Bleach process again but cut time down to 10 now. After shampooing, I apply oil to my scalp while semi wet. I use a keratin leave in spray. Then, a toning foam with protein. Tie my hair down with a bandana and bonet over it. This is what I do to get icy white blonde. My natural hair is jet black, 4a, low porosity, medium density. Also, take biotin a few weeks before you decide to bleach short hair.

How can he slay platinum hair so well

Finally a video that shows this whole process from start to finish. Thanks man i will definitely be doing this!

Tarek that hair colour looks sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Bomb on you ✨👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

This video is everything I just chopped off my shoulder length locs and I'm ready to have fun with my hair again 😌 thank youuuuuu

Whether black or platinum you are still very handsome and extremely articulate. Happy New Year, Tarek!

Hey Tarek! I loooooooove it! I was almost there, I just didn't do the 2nd bleach. I use aluminum foil instead of a plastic cap. I think the foil helps to process quicker. Yes it mos def gets warm. I just process for an hour and 15.

Im doing this next week.. omg I’m so freaking excited 🥺😍

You are so handsome!! The platinum does look good on you.

ive been bleaching my hair for 5 years now and it reallly started fucking with my scalp so i let my black roots grow out during the winter and just dye the grown out platinum to darker colors like purple and blue so the root isnt so obvious. taking care of your hair is important but dont forget about your scalp too :)

Aye man ya energy lit, good video

Now drop the skincare and brow routine!

I've missed you Tarek!

Honey I used this method and it has been a BLESSING...and my hair is still healthy.

Can’t wait for brad mondo to react to this 🤩

Man, you fine. 😂 I’m a fan of both looks!

Love this platinum color on you !!!!!

You look different, facially after you dye your hair

It’s soo pretty 😫

Try Schwartzkoph Blondeme. You can get to platinum in 30-40 minutes using 20 volume. Less damage. And if you need or want to do it again it's still less damage because you won't need a hour with 40 volume in your hair. Also sleep with coconut oil in your hair.

Literally gorgeous wtfff 😭🥰🥰💫💫

He’s so attractive ughh 😍😍 like look at the symmetry in his face can you be my donor 😂

You went from regular to HIGH FASHION. Love this look on you ✨

The hair is absolutely gorgeous but I need your skin care treatments also, your skin is beautiful and flawless hunnie!! Thx for the tips!!🥰

When you wash your hair (weekly or whenever) do you use the purple shampoo to keep it white? Or just another white shampoo...

you brighten my day :)

blonde just compliments you so well

I loved it when he said '' when your hair falls out'' so casual lol😂😂😂😂😂

I have been waiting for this FOEVAHHH! I love yo fine ahh! Hair is PERF! 🥰

girl i'm scared my hair gon fall right off but it is what it is, let's goooooooooo

i did this early last year and i didnt listen to your warnings lmao and ALL my hair fell out eventually, but for those first 2 weeks?! i got nonstop compliments about how much i look like storm and my ego was GASSED up 😭 luckily ive been rocking a twa for the last 3 years so i just shaved my head all the way down but ive been thinking about doing it again ever sinceeee so im bouta do it again tonight!! thanks again for this video 🙏🏾🙏🏾

Hey so just a tip if you if you want to get to platinum quickly after the first bleaching rinse your hair purple or blue. Then bleach it the next day or same day and itll come out silver.

I really love the black hair!

Black hits different and so does blonde😍 I love both the, I think you should try a honey blonde as well

I used this routine and IT WORKED SO WELL. Thx Tarek!! :)

Nobody: ... Tarek: Girl your scalp is dead..deceased

So if I don’t cut my hair , I shouldn’t repeat the process? What should I do then, use the toner and then repeat the bleaching process another day?

Hello Lovely Tarek “ The Beauty King “ Thank you for the tutorial & I think you look gorgeous with Black or Blonde hair

Tarek you're fine af lol..I like the black hair on you too!

Hey Tarek I watched your video and it makes sense everything you said, I am at the first day of processing and tomorrow I hope to be platinum!!! Thanks for all the info😊

Brad mondo needs to see this !!!! This hair is amazing ❤❤❤

My routine is almost similar but I would absolutely recommend a liquid lightener instead of the powder bleach just to be a lil kind to our beautiful scalps❣️ either way you look fabulous!

You're making me miss my blonde hair so much...am now blue...but the blonde is so striking on you

I gotta question boss, would you recommend I get my haircut before or after I bleach my hair? My hair is low and coarse. Appreciate the info

Loving the platinum and light hair on pretty brown skin.

You can do a pro time treatment for the texture or a product called olaplex it will keep your hair from breaking or the texture from changing to much

I cut and split dye my hair white every 2 weeks, it’s white, but not as white as yours. Now I know how to get it stark white and I don’t have to do it as often because I cut it regardless

how do you deal with the pain T?!?! I'm bleaching my hair and wanting that platinum blond like you but dawm that burn really has me not able to keep my ass in the chair

YOU LOOK GREAT WITH THE PLAT. HAIR & CUT! LIKE THE WAY U GAVE INSTRUCTION'S. YOU GOT "IT"! MUCH LOVE*

Question!!!! Do I have to wait until the next day to bleach?

Do you recommend getting a haircut before or after coloring your hair? This will be my first time lol

so you dont use toner? you just use the bleach and 40 twice? once day 1 and then again the next day and it gets this white platinum with no toner? i wonder if this will work for me i dont knwo shit about toning hair

Definitely following this! Thank youuu

How often were you dying your hair and did you have to use purple shampoo every time you washed your hair in-between dyes?

What hair dye did u use for the platinum white? I bleached my hair and for some reason the white won’t stick

JUS PLENTY HANDSOMENESS ‼️‼️💜💜💜

I don’t like your black hair now lol. The blonde is you now. Beyoncé

Damn you cute as hell TAREK❤❤😍💍😘

GIRL YOU DO YOUR OWN EYEBROWS? Sis drop that tutorial!

You look gorgeous great video!!

My first bleaching came out basically orange what should I do?

Please should i cover it after applied the bleach or just open?

Can u bleach twice in a row, as in after u bleach and wash it out, can u bleach after u wash.

I do the same thing but sometimes I’ll bleach twice in one day with some coconut oil. But I love ur hair 🔥🔥🔥

Are you able to bleach it twice ? And dye it as well ?

Can i ask, whats your advice to people like me who are first time bleaching hair (im bald)

A tip for the gurls, don't cut, scratch, comb, shampoo your scalp and hair prior to bleaching. It leaves you with small cuts and will burn because of the bleach.

my hairs bleached but i’ve had no toner or anything so what would anyone suggest because i’ve used a weak bleach so over the past few months i’ve been bleaching , so should i get a toner or a dye or purple shampoo

What if I want to bleach my ends platinum before I get dreads will that be OK I want my roots to be untouched an stay black

Should your scalp be tingling after the second bleach session

When you said " this has worked for me for years....I don't have" I laughed so loud lol

IT LOOKS SO GOOOD!! i’m so tempted to do it and i want that colour but idk if it will suit me. i’m a tad darker than him and we have the exact same hair type too but i’m scared as fuck!!

You're beautiful with your hair both colors! I will say that I personally like your hair platinum the most. Although it's what you like that matters! My hair is naturally silver and dark blonde. But it makes me look like a ghost! So, I always dye it soft/European black! And probably will for at least a few more years.

I am an asian woman with asian hair this video is totally irrelevant to my hair but i loved every single second of it!!!

My birthday is this month too ☺️ and I’m trying to do this color for my birthday which is on Black Friday. Happy birthday/belated 🤍🤍🤍

Omg its been a minute since you're last post...i know that school is much right at the end...but i just hope all is well and that we get to hear from you soon! Miss my Tae time. 😜

Omg the black hair had me all the way shook

This is my routine too. But I do it all in one day 😬 but imma start waiting that 24 hrs 😂😂

Super cute!!

Where did you buy that durag from?👀🔥

black or blonde hair you are gorgeousssssss!

Brad mondo would love this as much as I did
