I really want to die my hair to some funky color but I am afraid of damage. My hair is already rough. What do you ladies use to combat the negative effects of dyes? I also put the dye on in the early evening and then wrap it up in a towel and leave it until the next morning to wash out.
I don't even need to bleach my naturally light brown hair that way, the colour still comes out so bright that people regularly ask me whether or not I'm wearing a wig in the first few weeks. No damage, still glorious bright green, it's lasted for nearly three months fading to a murky fir-green that I personally like.
The only caveat is that you'll need to scrub your hair several times with clarifying shampoo and make sure you've got as much colour as possible out before each redyeing, because if you don't bleach then it'll dye darker over the last one each time.
On the other hand, the one and first time that I used a Directions dye for only 30 minutes twice as long as the 15 minutes they recommend on the packaging! It was Lavender on hair bleached to a lightish blond and it didn't even make it to an even silver, let alone purple-- it turned it a strange patchwork of fawn with grey strands where my hair had natural highlights.
It was pretty, actually. Just definitely not lavender! Yeah, I agree with the others, leave it on as long as you can stand it. Just watch out when you go to wash it out, Directions dries and cakes on your hair to a diamond-hard finish if you leave it in that long and it'll take some scrubbing with gloved fingers and cold water to break the dry bits loose.
It is a good idea to wear gloves : you can get away with not wearing any with some of the lighter colours but I would recommend getting into the habit of always wearing them.
Use a tinting brush : highly recommended for the first application and if using more than one colour. It will help you to be more precise and achieve a good even coverage. Once the hair dye is applied, cover hair in cling film or a shower cap : this prevents the dye from drying out, keeps your head nice and warm, helps the colour to develop, and prevents you getting dye everywhere. For long lasting colour try to avoid washing your hair with hot water : the colder the better, which will not only keep the dye from washing out but it also leaves your hair shiny.
I found swapping my very hot straightener for one with temperature control has really helped the condition of my hair and does not affect the colour, meaning I can style it more often. Treat your hair colour and the dye as though they are two paint colours you are going to mix together : e. Lagoon Blue on hair which is still a brassy colour will go greener then on the chart because you are mixing blue and yellow together. White toner can also be used to dilute colours : e. Carnation Pink dilutes into a very pretty candy floss pink.
You'll find it easiest to start with the hair on the nape of your neck and to work forward and up, finishing with the very top front strands, it always helps to have a friend help make sure you've got it all on evenly.
You can make absolutely sure you get totally even coverage by combing the dye through. The precise of time you need to wait depends on your hair, in general thick hair takes longer.
It's best to do this in the shower, and it's best to hold your head upside down while you do it so that you don't get dye on your face.
