Hair Dye is very common nowdays and over 75% of women have dyed or colored hair at any one time sometimes to cover grey hair and sometimes just for a change of look, men are also dying their hair more often now but tend to use the gradual hair dying method where they lose a little more grey after each wash.

If you are going to have your hair dyed then we would of course recommend going to a hair salon and have it done professionally because you can’t beat the results but sometimes you just can’t afford either the time it takes or the prices they charge so we are here to give you some tips and advice on how to dye your hair, but remember what works well for one person can be a disaster for another.

Chemicals such as ammonia and peroxide can damage your hair and the effects get worse the more often you dye it plus your hair will react differently to different levels of the chemicals found in various types of products, there are three main types of hair dye on the market and the first is semi-permanent, this adds to your normal hair colour without covering it up, this is also useful for areas of grey hair where you want to just blend it into your normal colouring and it has no ammonia or peroxide, it normally washes out after around a dozen shampoos. If you want something that lasts a bit longer then try demi-permanent because this will last twice as long this also does not contain ammonia but does have some peroxide in it.

If you want a permanent change of hair colour then permanent hair dye does what it says, it will change your hair from any colour to any colour but be very careful because this will not wash out at all, if you get it wrong the only thing you can do is either dye it again with a different colour or wait until it grows out, this product contains both peroxide and ammonia.
