Hair coloring has become so advanced that you can choose to have the most subtle color enhancement or undergo a drastic transformation. Options are endless, so hair coloring should be an integral part of your regime. For the best results, also let the professionals help you.
If you try coloring yourself, try making the task safer by following these side-lines: Rub Vaseline into the skin around your hairline before applying hair color. This acts as a hair protective base and prevents the color from staining your skin. Use an alcohol-based toner and cotton wool to remove any stains on your skin and always use protective gloves while applying color for your hands and nails care.
Also, only leave the hair color on for the specified time and if the resulting shade is unsightly, seek professional help. Never apply hair color after you have added hair extensions to your hair, as the color clogs up at the base of the extensions, making the extension slip out of your hair. Another important fact to remember is that chemically treated hair should not be wash with shampoo for at least 48 hours after processing.
After chemical processing, it takes almost a month for hair to stabilize, so have a color or hair perm well in advance before your holiday. Hair color tends to fade in the sun. Therefore, always protect your locks from UV rays by wearing a hat or a scarf and using hair care products. In order to revive your hair color, use a color-enhancing shampoo or hair conditioner once or twice a week. These hair protective products deposit minuscule pigments onto the hair to revitalize and maintain color.
