Often people come to hair coloring with "oily" hair, because they think that the dye will be better absorbed. As it turned out, this is not true. A hairdresser named 6 things people should stop doing, reports Huffpost.
Come to the coloring with dirty hair
Hairdresser Nicky Alton said the dirtier or greasier the hair, the less effective the lightening is.
"Dirt build-up on the hair acts as a barrier and makes it harder for the product to penetrate the hair cuticle," she added.
It is best if people come to this procedure with freshly washed and dried hair.
Christina Maccaro, a color specialist and salon owner in New Jersey, said that hair washed the day before the procedure is also very good. However, if your hair is too dirty, for example, right after the gym or if you have already applied a can of dry shampoo to it, then you should not do coloring.
Dirty hair can make it appear darker, causing color to form incorrectly.
If your hair is washed but not completely dried, this can also be a problem as it can delay the process.
Come with freshly shampooed hair before chemical treatment
On the contrary, if you are going to undergo a chemical procedure, such as a perm or scalp treatment, it is best to avoid washing your hair immediately before your visit as the chemicals can irritate your scalp.
If you come for services that require the application of a lightener, such as double blonding, do not wash your hair beforehand.
Rinsing oils from your hair before such a procedure can cause a lot of discomfort.
Come to procedures with tangled hair
It is necessary to detangle your hair before coming to the salon for procedures. Tangled or product-laden hair can slow down the process and add more time.
"It allows us to see the true length of the hair and apply the product more easily, whether we are coloring the hair or extensions," the stylist added.
Booking the wrong services
This can create a huge problem with the salon's ability to schedule and manage time. For example, if you made an appointment for a simple haircut and at the end you need a full haircut with a certain style, it will delay other clients.
Lack of photos of what you want
Picking the latest trendy hairstyle does not guarantee good results, as it may not suit your hair texture or face shape.
Clients should show the master photos from the Internet of what they want exactly. As a result, the hairdresser or nail technician will see what the client wants and this will help to avoid undesirable consequences.
Lie about home experiments
This includes dyeing your hair at home or even doing your own chemical treatments.
If you have used henna or chemicals to straighten your hair, your hairdresser should be especially careful when providing color services. Therefore, if you do not share the story of your experience, it can be harmful.
Pharmacy hair dyes and bleaches should be avoided. This is because during such procedures at home, something can go wrong and sometimes it cannot be fixed.
