Getting your hair dyed for the first time is both very exciting and can be surprisingly intimidating, but a great first step through the process is stepping into an organic hair salon<\/a> where expert stylists can help you through the process of getting the colour you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Switching up your hair colour is one of the easiest and most dramatic ways to transform your look, there are so many options available when it comes to natural dyes<\/a> and the change can be as subtle and natural or wildly dramatic as you like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To avoid any unexpected surprises, here are some important facts to know before you dye your hair for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your Hair Determines The Result<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hair dyes can produce significantly different results depending on your existing hair colour, texture and how it takes to a particular dye, so make sure to tell your stylist the exact colour you want so they can ensure you are really happy with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A mood board is a great idea for this; have several pictures of the colour you want in different lighting conditions to give yourself inspiration and your stylist an idea of your expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It Can Be A Lengthy Process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Depending on what colour you are starting out with, whether your hair needs pre-treatment or bleaching first and the intended result, it can take quite some time to get the result you might want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, it can take multiple trips to the salon to get the right colour if you are going several shades lighter or darker than your natural hue, but your stylist will give you an idea of what to expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some Colours Fade Faster Than Others<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dyes can sometimes fade over time and some colours will need more maintenance and touching up than others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is particularly true of more vibrant shades such as purples or blues, as the difference between its original application and how it fades can be dramatically different.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
