What you need before you start

Before applying hair dye , prepare all the materials:

• Chosen dye

• Hydrogen peroxide (oxidizer or developer) — sold separately

• Bowl and palette knife

• Gloves

• Protective layer

• Stain-resistant protective oil

Recommendation: The Hair Dye Starter Kit (€2.50) includes gloves, a disposable cape, a bowl, a brush, and protective oil. It's essential for safe at-home hair dyeing.

How to dye your hair at home step by step (How To)

Step 1: Choose the right type of dye

There are different types of hair dyes depending on the result you are looking for:

• Permanent dyes: cover 100% of gray hair and offer long-lasting results.

• Semi-permanent dyes or color baths: ammonia-free, ideal for sensitive scalps.

• Direct or fantasy coloring: does not need oxidant (example: Candy Colors).

If you're looking for complete gray coverage, choose a professional permanent hair dye.

Step 2: Prepare the mixture correctly

The oxidizer is sold separately. To prepare the mixture, you must follow the manufacturer's instructions.

The usual proportions are:

• 1:1 → same amount of dye as oxidant

• 1:2 → twice as much oxidant as dye

It is essential to respect these proportions for the color to develop correctly.

Step 3: Protect skin and clothing

Apply anti-blemish protective oil to your forehead, ears, and neck. Put on gloves and a protective cape before starting.

Step 4: Apply the dye

Divide the hair into sections to make application easier.

• If it's your first time coloring your hair, apply from roots to ends.

• If it's a touch-up, start at the root and let it sit before applying to the mid-lengths and ends.

Always follow the exposure time indicated by the manufacturer.

Step 5: Rinse and treat the hair

Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water until the water runs clear. Apply a post-coloring treatment or mask to seal in the color and add shine.
