Tips to dye your hair at home like a professional

With the arrival of spring, you want a change of look. For this reason, many people are encouraged to wear the fashionable highlights of the season. There are also those who need to maintain their dyed color and others will have to touch up the roots frequently in order to hide gray hair. In these cases, you can go to the hairdresser for a professional and flawless result.

But it is also true that this type of hair treatment is not cheap, even less if we talk about recurring visits for touch-ups and color maintenance. In addition, not everyone has the time to go to a salon or hairdresser to have their hair fixed. Therefore, the option of dyeing your hair at home is an excellent solution for many.

In the market we find a wide variety of dyes available, according to different preferences and needs. Choosing the right one is essential to obtain a beautiful and flattering tone, as well as not to excessively spoil the hair. And you'll also need to do an allergy test on a small area before applying the product all over your hair. But, apart from this, it is important to know how to apply the dye at home correctly and that it is impeccable.

Especially if it's the first time you're dyeing your hair at home, chances are you'll stain more than necessary. Put on old clothes that you don't mind ruining and cover yourself with a towel, also old. As extra protection, you can put more towels in the area where you are going to dye yourself.

Have hair clips and a comb handy that you can wash later. Put on gloves and prepare the mixture carefully.

To prevent dye from staining your face, you should apply a moisturizer, oil, or Vaseline to the hairline, forehead, temples, and nape of the neck. Of course, prevent the product from spreading to the hair, as this would complicate the fixation of the dye.

Forget applying dye all over your head haphazardly. The best way to keep the color even and well applied is to divide the hair into sections. Use tweezers for this and carefully apply the product to small strands.

Don't get too impatient to remove the stain before the time recommended by the manufacturer, because it will not have been absorbed properly. Don't leave it longer either, as that won't make the color set more, but it could oxidize the tone or damage your scalp.

When it's time to remove the dye, be sure to rinse your hair thoroughly to remove any excess product. Wash your hair with lukewarm water and a moisturizing shampoo. Afterwards, apply the conditioner or mask that includes the dye or, failing that, another one bought by you that nourishes the hair.
