Colouring your hair at home

Are you tired of monthly appointments for your colouring? You hardly get the time at weekends for your hair colour fixing? Are you fed up of spending $’s on your hair color? Then You have come right place.

You can save your lot of time and money in salon’s. Read it to get top tips on colouring hair at home.

1. The first and most important tip is that always read the instructions on hair colouring product carefully before colouring your hair.

2. Choose the right hair color for colouring your hair. Especially for first timers, using a very light color can give you very drastic results. To cover your gray hair I strongly recommend to use a shade matching with your original hair. If you want to change your hair shade use a color slightly different from your original hair color.

3. Always use the hair color in dry hair, don’t apply the hair color to the wet hair as this will not absorb the hair color. Wash and dry your hair in advance for best results.

4. Do not wash or shampoo your hair on the same day of colouring. Wash your hair one day before the colouring and donot shampoo your hair after the colouring, simply rinse thoroughly with cool to lukewarm water for best results.

5. Avoid rinsing of hair with hot water as it will take off the color immensely from your hair and donot shampoo your hair atleast for 24 hrs of the colouring this will avoid fading of hair color,

Note:- Almost all the hair colouring product which are made to use at home take off the dirt from the hair after rinsing so, there is absolutely no need of shampoo after the colouring. Doing so will make the shine and brilliance of hair color to diminish.

Prefer to use cold to lukewarm water for shampooing and conditioning of hair instead of hot water as this will help you in maintaining the vibrance of hair color. For better and long- lasting results use a shampoo desined for coloured hair.

Home Remedie For Straightening Hair

  By admin | December 19, 2011 - 3:22 am | Hair Leave a comment

1. Use a hair straightning conditioner after washing your hair, a lot people don’t think to do so. I think garnier or Pantene would better for this as these are really thick conditioners that will surely add shine and remove frizziness.

2. Now dry your hair from towel as well as you can and depending on your hair type use the suitable hair-straightening product. You need something like gel, cream or spray  for holding your straight hairstyle in place. I use this and a serum add shine to your hair once they are straight.

3. Use a good hairdryers which dries your hair fast and straightens it better. Take a large round bristle brush and wrap each section of it around it, this may diffcult for first timers but you’ll get it with practice to do this one hand. Move your brush down the hair shaft and point the dryer downward so that hot air blows your hair straight. Repeat this atleast three times with each section of your hair.

4. You may use large rollers for your tips for straight hair but it add more frizziness to your hair.

5. You may also use a straightening iron also called flat iron for this purpose. But use a good salon-quality iron.
