Now remember that changing the color of your hair is not a bad thing but you owe it to your hair to start with good advice on hair color. Whether you are looking to add a little color to cover gray, changing color because you want to keep up with the latest trend, or simply bored and want something new and exciting, you still want to get advice on hair color.

Regardless of the reason or the color chosen, nothing is more frustrating than spending good money on hair color only to have it fade quickly, or to have your hair damaged beyond repair. If interested in having your hair colored but want to make sure it will last as long as possible, consider the advice on hair color taken from Joseph Kellner in Orlando, Florida 32836.

Before Color – Do not have your hair colored if your hair is clean. Actually, you should not shampoo your hair for 24 to 48 hours before the color is added. The reason is that you need your scalp to have some natural oils present, which helps the color adhere better. Additionally, with an unwashed scalp, the color will penetrate deeper into the hair follicles, making it last longer. In addition to an unwashed scalp helping the color stay, it will also act as a protective barrier so that your head does not become irritated from the chemicals in hair color. Therefore, the longer you can go without washing your hair before you have color applied the better.
After Color – Just as you want the scalp to be unwashed for up to 48 hours before the hair color is applied, you also want to wait for 24 to 48 hours after the color is added before shampooing. By waiting to wash your hair, the color has more time to absorb, meaning it will be richer and more consistent. Although it might be tempting to wash your hair in 24 hours or less, you will have a more beautiful head of hair if you wait.

Everyday – Many people wash their hair on a daily basis simply because they like a clean head of hair. However, if your hair is colored, each time you wash it, even with permanent coloring, some fading will occur due to the sulfates found in many shampoos. Then in addition to the shampoo, conditioners and other hairstyle products do not provide any protection whatsoever to the sun’s rays, which also cause hair color to go through a slow oxidation process. Therefore, instead of shampooing and conditioning your hair on a daily basis, as you normally do, extend that time to every second or third day to help the color last longer.

Hair Products 

Hot Oil Treatment – Since this type of hair treatment often has high levels of acidity such as extra virgin oil, it can easily strip the color from the hair. If you want to use a hot oil treatment, just make sure it is a product designed specifically for color-treated hair.
Chemical Treatment – Using products such as straighteners, relaxers, and permanents, which are all comprised of chemicals, can cause damage to the hair’s hue. Depending on the product of choice, you might even experience broken, spongy, or brittle hair.

Color Glaze or Gloss – Ask your colorist about having glaze, or gloss applied to your hair at the time of coloring. In addition to extending the life of your hair’s color, this will also seal the hair’s cuticle. You can choose from a semi-permanent gloss that is applied with or without heat, both helping extend the color in a safe and healthy manner. These treatments also give your hair more shine, producing a beautiful color reflection.

Conditioning – A minimum of once a week, you should use a deep conditioner that is made for colored hair. This will help maintain the color and strength the hair.

Hair Maintenance
Hair Cut – Always have your hair cut before you have it colored, especially if you plan going from long to short. Why pay to have your hair colored and then cut off?
Hydration and Moisture – After you have had your hair colored, you want to consume more water than normal, which will keep your hair from drying out and moisturize the roots.Styling Tools – Avoid overuse of blow dryers, curlers, hot irons, and other heated styling tools, choosing to let your hair air dry, if possible. If you do need to blow dry your colored hair, then use a leave-in conditioner that will provide some protection or set the air on cool.
Water – If you plan to swim in the ocean or swimming pool, be sure to wear a swimming cap. Unfortunately, both salt water and chlorinated pools can cause the color to fade and with pools, you might experience an unwanted hue of pink, yellow, or green.
Sunshine – When out in the sun, wear a cap or hat to protect your colored hair.
Hair Part – To prevent uneven fading, you want to switch the side where you part your hair so that different sections are exposed.

Time was when your hair color choices were blonde, red, brunette, and black, but those days are long gone! Each basic hair color comes in a full array of choices from platinum blonde to jet-black. Moreover, the modern consumer must choose from non-traditional hair colors that range from hot pink to chartreuse. However, the wrong hair color choice can give you the blues and leave you red in the face!

First Hair Color Choices
The best method in choosing a hair color is first to choose the results you want from it. Depending on whether you are covering gray, highlighting a natural hair color, or using hair color to completely change your image, knowing what you want helps you to narrow down hair coloring choices.

Before you get down to choosing a hair color, first decide on your commitment to hair coloring. Temporary hair colors wash out in a shampoo or two, semi permanent products typically last for a couple of months, while permanent dyes may either give you grow-out pains or necessitate frequent root touch ups.

Choosing a Compatible Hair Color
After you’ve decided on results and made your commitment, it’s time to get out the color wheel. Beauty experts tell us that we’re either “cool” or “warm” depending on our skin tone, eye color, and natural hair color.

  Cool Category Warm Category
Eyes Dark Brown, Black-Brown, Gray Blue, Dark Blue, or Hazel with white gray or blue flecks Golden brown, Green, Green-Blue, Turquoise, Hazel with gold or brown flecks
Hair Blue black, Deep brown, Ash brown, Ash Blond, Platinum Blond Deep brown with gold or red highlights, Red, Strawberry Blond, Gray-Yellow, Natural Golden Blond
Skin Very dark brown, True olive, Medium pale, Medium with golden undertones, Pale, Bronze Brown with pink or golden undertones, Peachy or with peachy undertones, Pale with gold undertones, Freckled, Ruddy

Although this is good advice, if you’ve just finished a tanning session, if you have some complexion problems (Rosacea, liver spots, blemishes), or if your hair color is already not what nature intended (in other words previously tinted or more salt than pepper), it may be difficult to determine by examining your skin tone and hair color. Don’t despair! There is a shortcut!

Examine your wardrobe. Cool hues are green, blue, and violet. Warm hues are reds, oranges, and yellows. Chances are, your wardrobe is a mix with either cool or warm hues in the majority. Clothing colors that look good on you and make you feel comfortable probably indicate if you’re in the cool or warm category. For instance, if olive drab makes you fade into the woodwork, then cool tones like ash blonde (ash tones contain green) are probably not for you.

In addition, most commercial hair colors have aids on the box, yet if you have a hard time deciding which group is your group, you may want to seek the advice of a professional hair stylist.

Hair Color Tips:

  1. Highlighting is a great way to add tone to monochromatic hair (jet black, pure brown).
  2. Beware of hair colors that have green, blue, or purple undertones, like “ash”. If you mix them with warm tones, your hair color will turn out green.
  3. The levels (one to twelve) you see on hair coloring boxes are the lightness or darkness of the color. Level one is black (darkest) and level twelve is light blond.
  4. “Complimentary colors” are opposite each other on the color wheel. Blue-orange, violet-yellow, etc. If you want to neutralize unwanted highlights, choose the complementary color. For instance, red will cancel out an ash undertone, and an ashen color neutralizes any red highlights in your hair.
  5. Be sure to check if your hair color is a “progressive dye”. Progressive dyes continually add more color with each use. For instance, if you’re coloring blond hair black, your first use of a progressive hair color may not give the result you expected. However, continued use will turn your hair jet black.
  6. Hair colors, like perms, are chemically based so if you’re pregnant, be sure to check with your doctor before coloring your hair.
  7. Henna hair dyes are organic based hair colors that don’t mix well with chemicals. Stay out of the pool and the ocean after coloring your hair. Neither sea salt nor chlorine mixes well with chemical hair colors.
