ESALON CUSTOM HAIR COLOR - Touching up my roots without messing up my highlights AT HOME!! 

I definitely wanna try this. Cause once my blue and purple starts to fade i wanna go back to brown, but idk when that will be. So do you know how long your link for the $10 first box will be for??

It stays active as long as I’m a subscriber (I pay for this one and I’m not an affiliate) and I am not planning on ditching them any time soon. I love them!

@@TheElevatedHome awesome. Im 100% trying this once these colors fade out. I already checked it out and i seen a medium deep chocolate golden brown that I really like. 😁 Are the bottles normally big enough to do a whole head with just one ? Cause normally i get 2-3 box dyes from the store when i do mine.

Bailey JeanTheJellyBean actually the first time they send you enough dye to cover it all and it would still be $10. I got two. The. The next few rounds are single bottles bc imyoull do just your roots and then a wash down the rest while in the shower. If I change my color then they send two bottles again to be sure my whole head is covered! They’re really beyond accommodating and it’s part of the reason I have stuck with them so long.

@@TheElevatedHome wow i cant believe i havent heard about this before now. I am 100% trying it cause i definitely spend more than $20 when getting just the normal box dyes. Cant wait to get my first box and continue from there 😁

Thanks love this tip

ABSOLUTLEY LOVE IT

Appreciate it thank you

I’m going to do that in the future, thank you… I have blonde highlights but do my roots myself, and go to the salon 3 times a year to get the highlights redone. When I section my hair to do my roots the lengths get tangled all around as my hair is so fine, I’m scared some root color will end up on the highlights. Dampening and putting on conditioner is a genius idea!

I hope you did the eSalon, with a pixie it will be so easy for you to do your own color it’s a no-brainer!!

They make it super easy. They even have vids on their own channel and website to help teach if you’re ever worried about a step. I’ve been using hem since 2016 and love it!!

It is so easy and professionals are always blown away. I’m a red head and they matched it dead on.

I just ruined my highlights 😆 they’re much darker now

ESalon doesn’t have a ‘standard kit’ they work with you to develop the exact type of products you need. For example, my root touch-up subscription comes with a 15 volume developer and my toner subscription comes with a 10 volume developer.

I’m fairly certain that they don’t charge for more dye. When my hair was longer they would send two while kits for the same price as just one to be sure my whole head is covered. Then they send root touch up ones for a few and then back to double bottles again. I’m not an affiliate or anything for them but I’m sure I could still ask for you if you wanted!

Yes she has one. It’s older than this video.

They'll actually customize the formula for you based on where you start and where you want to be but I told them I want Dark-Medium Brown, Slightly Golden. I do NO want any red shift or undertone at all and so my formula looks like it is 80% brown tones and 20% golden tones.

You have to take the clips out once your timer goes off. There’s a second pair of gloves in the color kit; you put the gloves on right before you get in the shower. Once you’re in the shower you wet your gloved hands and you massage your roots where the color is for a couple of minutes. You’ll see the color will start to get a bit sudsy. Then you rinse and shampoo/condition with the eSalon shampoo and conditioner packets provided. After shampooing you can take off the gloves if you want, since the excess color is rinsed out your hands don’t risk getting stained. There’s plenty of shampoo in the packet (it smells nice, like apples), but I like to shampoo twice after coloring to make sure i didn’t miss any of the color residue on my scalp; so I have a gentle non-stripping shampoo on standby for the second wash. Then I use the eSalon conditioner packet. I have long baby fine hair and there’s enough conditioner for my needs, but I think someone with long thick hair probably would want to use more conditioner.

ESalon gives you a second pair of gloves in the kit. Once your timer goes off you put the gloves on just before getting in the shower. You wet your gloved hands and massage the color that’s on your roots for 2 minutes, being careful not to spread it to the lengths. Then you rinse and immediately shampoo and condition. I always shampoo twice after I color to make sure there’s no color residue in my hair. Also, I have used eSalon’s purple tint on my lengths after coloring my roots. It’s a product you use after shampooing but before conditioning. I do that to neutralize any possibility of color having gotten on my blonde from the water. Maybe it’s pointless but my roots and highlights look lovely when I’m done. The eSalon Tint works amazingly well against brassiness.

I do too

Same doubt.

I have same issue 😞

Me too! I would have appreciated a reply to this question, which is a popular concern.

I would call E-Salon and ask them. They have been super helpful with all my questions.

Me too. I looked everywhere online for answers. Nobody can answer that question. I'm gonna ask again in all caps on here in a minute. Hopefully someone will have a good answer.

@@madelineannabella3284 When I called E-Salon about this, all they said was just to be sure to color the new growth only and the highlights will still be fine. I still need to find somone who needs their glasses to color and how they do it!

Having a helper is the key if you’re worried about not getting a good result. Even a young teen can help, I remember going to my neighbor’s house to dye her hair when I was 14 😂 I do the front and top of my hair to the crown on my own, and my husband does the back sections for me. I’m saving so much money using eSalon, when my salon charges me $175 plus tip just for roots and a cut😩my hair is baby fine and I just get trims, so a cut on me takes less than 10 minutes... Now I go three times a year to get my highlights redone ($400 with the tip, OUCH) and the rest of the time I use eSalon for my roots. My hairstylist hasn’t complained, and she hasn’t had a hard time highlighting over the eSalon color, so that pretty much shows it’s real salon-grade color.

It will not go on your highlights just washing it out. My hair dresser does it every time I just get a color on roots.

@@robinlages6673 your hair dress rinses out the scalp first, and the color doesn't touch the blond until it's almost all rinsed out. Every time I do my own roots this happens. When my stylist does my roots she can rinse "upside down", if that makes sense.

They love when I color theirs with the color conditioner! They would love doing mine.

My chart says it is called ‘Golden Brown’ but you can also share a picture or the link to the vid to esalon and they would ask for a picture of you and they would make a formula for you specifically to achieve the same color :)

Oh I wanted to do purple next but after a bad bleach job I’m just trying to repair my hair 😭 I’d rather smear Vaseline all over me than to be stained for days lol. And that’s amazing your boyfriend helped! My husband would be terrible at it lol. I won’t even ask. My best friend is pink and has been blue, purple, and green too so I’d rather just wait for her to help me!

@@TheElevatedHome you should definitely do some color again when your hair gets back to healthy. That's kinda why im gonna go back to a normal color after this cause ive had colors in my hair for about 7 to 8 months and have went from just purple to just blue and now both together and the bleach touch ups are rough on your hair. So definitely need to give mine a break again for awhile. I like to go every few years with nornal colors then go bright for about a year here and there 😁 But haha my bf was worried he was gonna mess it up and i told him oh just slap it on there, cant be any worse than when i do it without being able to see 🤣🤣 if a color doesn't turn out then hey what can you do. Just put a darker color over it and its all better or just rock and who cares 🤣🤣🤣 Hair is hair it will grow back 💕😁

I WISH SOMEONE WOULD ANSWER THIS! I have the exact same problem.

Has anyone figured out how to color roots and wash it out without it messing up lighter ends???

I have same problem and would love an answer but I did read that applying Vaseline to your highlight might work as it cannot penetrate colour

My hairdresser told me to apply conditioner on the length of the hair.

This is def not a commercial for eSalon since I don’t work for them, wasn’t sponsored, wasn’t asked to make the video, and I’m a paying esalon customer. But also I’m not a hairstylist and merely gave the at home expectation for a hair dying service. What would you suggest I do differently?

@@TheElevatedHome sorry to offend you. I'm just trying to cover roots without it bleeding down to ruin my highlights. My roots are gray, I'm light brown with blond highlights. You seem really pleased with esalon but I cant wait for the mail

She put it In the comments st least 2 times go look !
