Hair Color Tips
We all need a change sometimes, and what better to change than the color of our hair?
Changing the color of our hair gives us a sense of renewal, even if the only thing different from yesterday to today is the color of the strands on our heads. Opt for highlights only or color your entire mane for the ultimate head-turning factor. Depending on your comfort levels, you can try at-home coloring kits or you can make an appointment with your stylist.
Tips and Tricks
• Consider a temporary color if it is your first time coloring your hair. This gives you the option to remedy the situation if you don't like the results.
• Deep condition the hair before applying color treatment. Wait one to two days after shampooing before coloring. Your scalp is more sensitive just after shampooing, this will make the process more comfortable as the natural oils in your hair will protect it and your scalp.
• If you are using a do-it-yourself, home color treatment, have someone help you. Having a helper will ensure complete and even coverage and
• Don't skip the strand and skin tests, and follow the instructions. These tests are designed to both give you a preview of the resulting color and signal any allergic reactions you might have.
• Part hair into sections and apply color from roots to ends, starting with the darkest areas first, usually at the nape of the neck, the crown and the temples.
• Applying a little petroleum jelly to the skin at your hairline will keep the color solution from staining your skin and avoid exposure to the chemicals in the solution.
