Red hair seems to hate us, we NEED TO FIGHT FOR IT MAN! Try everything you can to keep it in, use color shampoo & conditioner, try not to wash your hair as much as possible (gross I know, try dry shampoo and/or baby powder to get rid of greasy roots) and WASH YOUR HAIR WITH COLD WATER! It will lock in the color!
I dyed my hair last week BRIGHT RED (See photo) and it's already faded! Any other tips to share? ♥ - Faith @ LBC
We all want our hair to look perfect, healthy, shiny and of amazing colour! But colouring your hair at salon can be pricey, specially if you have to do it every few months. You can also do it yourself at home. Dying your hair is not that complicated, just stick to few rules:
- always wear supplied gloves to protect your hands
- try not to splash the dye around on bathroom walls and furniture (done it few times myself with dark hair dye - it doesn't come off ... )
- start from the back of your head, as hair on the front require less dying time
- apply some small amount to the palm of your hands first, spread it and apply it evenly to your hair, starting at the roots
- be carefull not to miss a spot
- remember about hair by your ears and on the forehead - don't forget to apply some hair dye there too :)
- spread the hair dye to the rest of your hair, massage it through
- if you've got really short hair, apply hair dye with tooth brush - as with shorter hair you need to be careful to dye it super evenly - they're less forgiving that longer hair :)
- ask a friend for help, specially one who's got experience in dying hair at home
Good Luck and have fun!
