Hair Dye Day





Today we will be covering the basics of coloring yooo hurrrrrrrr at home...when purchasing your hair dye make sure you buy semi-permanent instead of permanent because if you buy permanent and then roots grow and, and then you color over it your gonna have a funkyyy look...sooo stick to semi-permanent. when you buy the box of hair dye they usually give you a bottle of the dye or a tube of dye so that you can mix it with the creme developer they provided. *Note: when dyeing your hair a dark color you buy a low volume developer and when you dye it platinum blonde or another bright color get a higher volume developer. ( i.e. Left is for dark hair and right is for light hair).
















next, instead of mixing the ingrediants in the bottle with the creme developer mix all the items in a plastic bowl and mix it with a brush. then apply some petroleum jelly on your forehead, ears, neck, and the back of your neck so that the dye wont stick.



*Note: if you get dye on your skin you can remove buy rubbing tooth paste on it orrr you can clean the area and then apply some more dye to the stained area and wipe it clean ( i know it sounds crazy to add dye to a stained area but it will work..trust me)

Next dye your roots first, because the heat of your head will allow the dye to set really well,plus the roots are the most important part so you need to get that done first..then you can dye the rest of your hair layer by layer. once your done dying your hair comb through it with a wide comb to make sure the dye is distributed evenly.


to purchase everything from brushes, plastic container, dye (2), it will cost you about $20 totallll.
* MAKE SURE YOU WEAR GLOVES AND WEAR A OLD SHIRT YOU DONT CARE ABOUT JUST IN CASE YOUR DYE DRIPS..ALSO WHEN YOUR DONE WITH THE DYE APPLY A SHOWER CAP FOR 30 TO 45 MINUTES.
