Buy a box at your local store...then just follow direction as they say to do

How you apply it can vry depending on the brand or just how you are meant to put it on. Like some of them will be applied by shampooing it on, where as there are some quick dyes that you can just mix with water and put it on your hair.( I wouldnt reccomend those ones by the way)

First of all....There are very few actual white, grey or silver hair dyes on the market available to the general public. And some stylists will try to talk you out of it. Many will try to convince women who want to go white or let their natural white/grey/silver grow out will tell them it will only make them look old and they "really" want to go blonde. If you get a stylist who tries this, you should "really" find another stylist immediately. If they start right away telling you what you "really" want after you have already told them...they're not going to listen to what YOU want in other areas either ("oh, you really needed 2 more inches cut off here, I know you didn't want me to cut it off, but you needed it!") Ditch any stylist who acts like a Goddess/God about what you ask for and acts like they know more about what you want than you do.

That said, it's difficult to bleach your hair to the pale yellow needed to get your hair to white, and you could experience a lot of breakage. Most professionals do not recommend anyone with hair darker than medium brown even attempt to go white/grey/silver because of this. If you are sure and do the bleaching yourself, then there are white toners that can be purchased, such as Manic Panic at places like Sally or online. Do a test strand and follow the directions EXACTLY and leave on the exact time the packaging says. BE WARNED you MAY end up with a purplish or bluish tone for the first few days to a week. (especially if you leave it on too much longer than directed). This will generally subside after the first few washes.

To keep it as white/grey/silver as possible, wet hair with about 1 1/2 cups of warmed bottled water instead of tap water before applying shampoo, especially if you have a lot of chlorine (adds greenish tones) or are on well water that has iron or sulfur in it (turns white and silver brassy yellow). This helps make sure the first thing your hair is absorbing is not going to change your colour to something you don't want (the same reason it's recommended you wet your hair before going into the pool). Mixing that bottled water with a purple shampoo helps save a step. And following with a purple conditioner helps keep your white/grey/silver as nice as possible without other tones creeping in. It's hard to find sometimes, but Bumble & bumble has purple shampoo & conditioner for white/grey/silver hair. Also try to cut back to washing every other day if you can get away with it. Use less conditioner to prevent greasiness, and use less on the scalp itself (especially on top of your head and around your ears) . This will help your white/grey/silver colour last a bit longer - as well as the bottles of the sometimes pricey purple shampoo & conditioner.

Also to keep your hair shiny and white, use hair sprays & other styling products meant for coloured hair, and look for those with UV protection. These are less likely to turn your hair brassy yellow, and will help protect your pretty pale locks.
