Hair Colour


Well I ordered some hair colour from Amazon a few weeks ago, as I can't go to the hairdresser anytime soon. Husband M says he will colour my hair for me. He has an idea as he watched his late mother do it. We can probably find a good youtube instructional video as well. I never paid attention to what the hairdresser did.

That reminds me, I promised I would try to give him a haircut.  Many years ago I took a basic haircutting course.  Although my daughter wasn't impressed with some of her childhood photos when I cut her hair myself haha.

That's funny about your daughter. I've dyed my hair along time ago. It's really easy to do. You got this!

Good luck! Please take before and after photos. I mostly do my hair myself, but as it's long, it's easier to get away with mistakes! Hugs, Valerie

I'm sure it will be fine.
I can't cut it myself, so it won't look so pretty in a while :(

Greetings and success.

Hey Christine! You gotta do what you gotta do, I'm sure you two will manage just fine. You may be even surprised, who knows! ;)

HA. Your daughter. :)
If you're touching up your roots, do those first and let it sit for the allotted amount of time, then pull the color through the ends of your hair for the last five minutes or so; the instructions should be clear. Good luck!!

By the way what colour is it? I learned the word (or rather the colour) after wifey started buying "Burgundy"

I go blond from that line and did nothing to my hair :( but darker shades should be better :) I stick with my Revlon when I have to lighten and touch up my roots :)

Good luck with both.
I used to dye my hair but when it turned gray I just let it be...but I did dye it myself and didn't have a problem.

Stay Safe 🌷

Good luck. I wish I knew how to color and cut my own hair.

Ananka said...

Good luck! Best he watch a video ;-)

I have plenty greys so will need to dye mine soon too!

My hairdresser said she and other hairdressers were telling clients that if they color their own hair with those box colors, that it might take awhile to get their hair fixed. Box colors can damage your hair. I got mine cut and colored right before my hairdresser shut down, but it may be a couple of months before I get back since it looks like California will be shut down until at least the end of May. Guess I'll get to see just what my natural color looks like!

Now that last sentence made me laugh and reminded me of a funny picture of middle school kids which read, "And now we are back to having our mothers giving us haircuts, and the faces and hair-do's of some of them were hilarious. I recognized one of my own haircuts my mother gave me in that group. My hair is going to be half way down my back at this rate. I was getting ready for a trip to get it cut before the shelter in place, but better in than out and that's what my hair-ties are for :) YouTube has a how-to for everything these days doesn't it. We use them quite often for the instructional videos.

Since you promised hubs a hair cut I really hope you will share the before and after pic with all of us!! haha...I colored my own hair for years and everyone thought it was all natural so you should not have an issue.

I read that, as well. I'm glad I don't have any colour right now. I would like a good haircut, though. I'm going to go at it with the clippers soon.

This should be a fun experience! Hope he does a good job. And you giving him a haircut. I cut my own hair and it shows, lol...but then what do I need to look good for - ...the squirrels and birds;)

dellgirl said...

Oh, that's going to be a lot of fun...you and Hubby doing your hair. Will be waiting to hear all about it.

It'll be easy, Christine. My husband has helped me dye my hair. And he does an amazing job!

all dye can damage your hair, box or from a salon. its dye, most people don't put it on the hair right, which causes the damage. hairdressers tend to tell people that if they use box dye it will ruin their hair so they make more money
