Home Hair Dyeing - Tips for Safe Use

Before Dyeing:

Choosing the right shade: Choose a shade that matches your skin tone and is close to your natural color. 

Tip! Use one of the applications that allow you to virtually try different hair shades. 

• Patch Test: Before applying the dye to your entire head, do a small allergy test behind your ear: Apply a little dye to the area, leave it for the amount of time indicated in the instructions, and then rinse. If you notice irritation, do not proceed with the dye. 
• Skin Protection: Apply a greasy cream or petroleum jelly around your hairline, ears, and neck to protect your skin from possible stains. 
• Choosing the right clothing: Because accidents... happen, wear an old piece of clothing you don't mind getting stained or discolored. 

During

1. Follow the instructions: Carefully read the instructions on the dye packaging and follow them exactly. 
2. Even application: Apply the dye evenly throughout the length of your hair, starting from the roots and moving towards the ends. 
3. Application time: Leave the dye on your head for the amount of time indicated in the instructions. Do not leave it on longer than the recommended time, as it may cause dryness and damage to your hair. 

After dyeing

1. Rinse well: Rinse your hair thoroughly with plenty of lukewarm water until the water runs clear. 
2. Use a hair mask: Apply a hair mask specially designed for colored hair to hydrate and protect the color.
