Once you select your ideal hair color product, follow these simple recommendations and your at-home hair color experience will be a successful one.
A Few Must-Follow Guidelines
How to Color Hair Tip 1 – It’s best to choose a color that is no more than one or two shades lighter or darker than your natural hair, since any dramatic changes can be difficult and costly to fix. Don’t try to go platinum blond if you’re a natural brunette. Leave dramatic changes to professionals. At-home hair color products are not chemically designed for this type of transformation.
How to Color Hair Tip 2 – Keep in mind that semi-permanent colors won’t lighten your hair – they can only make it darker.
How to Color Hair Tip 3 – Do a strand test first! Try your new color on a strand of hair underneath your top layer before coloring your whole head. This way, if you don’t get what you expected, you can easily cover it up.
How to Color Hair Tip 4 – Protect your skin. Since some dyes can irritate and stain, spread Vaseline along your hairline or a Q-tip before applying any color.
How to Color Hair Tip 5 – Always follow the instructions on the box!
