SECRETS FROM A HAIRSTYLIST/ HOW TO DYE YOUR HAIR AT HOME / TIPS & TRICKS FOR DYEING YOUR HAIR 

HEY GUYS! I posted a follow up video with all the steps and tips for going darker- be sure to check that out!

The stylist that are complaing about her giving information ...really? Like we can read books from Amazon if we wanted. It's like being a chef and being mad there's a cooking channel. Get a life. And some of us literally just do depositing colors and no lift and just learned something about saturation. So thank you Morgan!

Makeup wipes or micellar water removes hair dye!! From your skin and even your counters! Best thing I’ve ever figured out while coloring my hair at home

"You want it to look natural" **starts wondering how deep blue can look natural**

"Never buy drugstore kits" Me sitting here with two boxes of dye from target: thanks.

Finally a video that is concise, and NOT a waste of my time. You speak well. Thank you for sharing.

this was a GREAT video. Idk why the internet makes it so hard explaining what causes "hot roots" - I've never died my hair at a salon and looked all over the internet and no one explains it nearly as well as she did in 30 seconds. unbelievable.

I'm here because I can't go somewhere to get my hair dyed during quarantine

Im a hairstylist too and actually loved this video for the pure reason you're helping peoples hair and saving us color corrections!

I'm a returning cosmetologist. I need to test to reinstate my expired license. It's been a long time. I watch these videos to learn and study. Good information. I know the basics but really need a refresher.

I agree with you .I did hair for 16 years I do use a drugstore hair color and also used professional colors I really dont see much of a difference .I'm a level 4 and I use a.medium brown cause drugstore colors do come out darker ....so I think it's ok to go go darker .just my opinion lol great video

Me sitting here with dye soaking in my hair and finding out I did everything wrong: 👁👄👁

Yes make that video about going lighter and darker.

I’m going from a level 5 or 6 to a level 8 and this video definitely helped me

Please do another video with more tips on going dark

can you do videos on coloring hair artificial colors like blue, pinks, purples? I don't see hair stylist talk about that very often .

"Because looking like a cheetah is just not cute." 🤣🤣 **hits subscribe just to hear awesomely snarky comments in the future**

Great info ...2 things I would have done wrong so for that it’s an A plus video . Have decided to spend the money and go to a salon known for coloring . Thank you !

I would be way to scared to dye my own hair lol. I never knew about the levels and stuff tho...great tips!

I just dyed my hair from brassy to dark brown in my latest video. I love it! It’s so much healthier looking.

If the box says is going to be in brown that's the color I want I just want to get rid of the gray hair

Where can I get a blue toner at. There is only purple at Sally’s that I could find

Thank you so much for this I can no longer afford 250 dollars at the salon it adds up. I have been in depression and in need of a change and this helps a lot

I love that frame in the back with the makeup brushes

Ive used sun-in for 4 years to keep my hair golden blond. Can i colotlr over this?? I was thinking about going back to fire engine red.

I'm interested in what you said about not needing to recolor your but just do roots. So, what if your color has faded alot? Should you used a semi- permanent or something? Would it be hard to match the roots? Would you cover the roots too? My hair is very fragile because of box haircolor so I am trying to avoid further damage. Do you have a recommendation? Thank you for sharing your knowledge! It's a learning curve to color at home but the professionals were destroying my hair too!

Hi, I've been dying my hair for many many years now and have always used a box dye. I've had no problems but sometime last year I decided I wanted to return to my original colour which is a golden brown. As you pointed out I thought I could buy a brown and I'd have brown hair at the end of it but it didn't turn out like that!! I attempted about 3 times but nothing happened so I bought a colour remover and it took me 3 times for the colour to lift. When it lifted I was so happy 😁 I then repeated the same colour, golden brown but it wasn't the right colour as it was too light so thought using a darker brown would work but that came out looking black! I was nearly at breaking point where I thought I couldn't be bothered but then I left it for about 2 weeks and the brown started to come through! But my roots started to come through and they are grey roots so they needed colouring. I bought the golden brown and covered my whole hair. BUT because the roots were grey the roots didn't really take and so I was left with a reddish colour. It wasn't working out for me 😊. I then bought a chestnut brown thinking it would blend in with the roots! But it didn't. I've FINALLY got the golden brown on my hair right now but my roots are lighter. I bought a dark chocolate 'box dye' because I don't know how to bleach or do any of the professional stuff your saying and am scared I could mess it up! So box dye it is for me right now! On the box it says chocolate brown but on the lid it says black brown. Can you please tell me, is my hair going to be black? .I do want darker roots but would love it to be dark brown and not black! I am planning on going to a salon when they open but I want my hair done now lol. I like the colour of my hair but it's just the roots that are in need of fixing! I know box dye is not great but it's all I've ever known and it's always worked for me. I know I've mentioned I did this and that but I did take breaks with the dyin. I did all the above over the year and gave my hair a rest between everything! Please can you or anyone that knows so I don't mess things up lol. It's just that I know black is the hardest colour to lift as that is the colour I had been doing for years.! Keep safe. 😊💚👋

I don’t understand the reasoning behind not using the box dye. I spent so much money going to salons.. never got what I wanted. It was like a cookie cutter, everyone wanted to make me blonde, all I wanted was highlights. Been using L’Oréal color expert for like 6 years & I like my hair so much better & it’s so much healthier. I get compliments every time I get the highlights just right too.

Thank you. So informative and super helpful.

I learned a lot from your tips and tricks! Great video!

Hii Dr please suggest me a good hair dye brand, I have been colouring my Grey roots am still young, my hair has become messy.... 😔😔😔

Hi, I'm so glad you did this video. Now I'm only dying my hair because of the gray. I have gray throughout my hair. So, what do I use for that? And I'm dark brown. I'm in my late 40's. Would it look better if I go 2 shades lighter? Thank you for your time

Suggest some good brands to start with please I’ve problem with grey

Hairdressers get mad that she’s giving tips? Ridiculous! As a single mom I can’t afford to go to a salon. I buy the most expensive color at the beauty supply and do it myself for $20 a month.

I bleached my hair at home and went from like a level 4 to something like a level 8 in one sitting with a few darker and lighter pieces here and there. Is it totally even and professional? Nah. But my hair is completely healthy and it's perfect enough to get my hair purple, so I'm super happy with it.

Very informative and now I have a better idea on how the i levels work.

Thank you for your video. My hair is usually lighter at the ends than the roots. I chose a 5n at Sally’s and I didn’t like how it seemed lighter than my natural roots. Not super noticeable but more reddish than I’m used to. The 4n was much better when applied to just my roots then the ends for last half. Though the ends were darker than I’m used to at that point. Wondering if I did a 4n on roots, then 5n towards then end and combed through, would make me look a 🤡 ? lol

Hi Morgan i loved your tips!just help me here: i dyed my hair level 6 but since my hair is so dark it didnt show much of the color..so i want to go lighter to a 7...is it possible?i mean, do i have to cut my hair like we have to do if i would have dyed my hair a level 1 or 2?

🖤Party pooper here 💩🤣I started coloring my hair black when I was about 12 😳I am going to be 34 thursday..🖤 🌟🌟all the warnings were true🌟🌟 My hair would no doubt be much nicer if I hadn't put it through so much abuse. I miss my old hair🖤 🤷‍♀️

What happens when someone with crazy black hair wants to get their roots back to platinum like the rest of their hair they took months to achieve?

Thank you for this informative video. Trying not to get the root color through out my hair when I rinse is always a problem for me

This was so incredibly helpful and informative thank you

Thank you so much for all this info! I like how concise you are, talk fast and are so easy to understand. I had virgin hair, naturally a level 4.5 my stylist said with about 50% grey. My stylist dyed it with demi-permanent Wella Color Touch Plus in a level 7. The formula is suppose to cover 70% of the grey. She thought my hair came out a half shade too light. This was 8 weeks ago. Now I need to color my roots. I want to do it at home, so she suggested a level 6 for the roots. Just ordered the same brand dye on Amazon with a 1.6% emulsion like she suggested. My question is, I am going to JUST do my roots when the dye comes. At what point in the future do I dye my whole head? I don’t want to damage my hair. Thank you!

Great video! thanks for sharing. When I apply the color (which is dark brown) I only touch the new roots, the problem is when I wash it, it bleed into the rest of my hair, it ruins my new highlights and make them darker and greenish. It has been a huge stress for me and my hair having to highlight it often to keep the highlights bright. Any tips.?

How do you dye your color hair? Teal with semi permanent what do you have to mix with it?

Color Rays L’Oréal Red/Magenta did give me the picture on the box .. Long gone now.. No wander! It was too good to have on the market..

Hi Morgan, thanks for you're video. I was wondering if you could tell me how do you know how much color to mix with a developer and what kinds should you use? I've had my hair colored in the salmon about 4 to 5 times in my lifetime but I'm trying to save money and do it myself because the salon gets expensive and i really can't afford it anymore and i don't like using those box colors from the stores. My hair is like a medium to dark brown and that's the way i would like to keep it. The only thing is i have alot of grey or should i say white around the front of my face and just around the edges of my face. That kinda runs in the family. If you could give me some advice on how much color you use and if and what kind of developer i need I'd really appreciate it. I'm glad that you're a hair stylist and you're giving us some good information and that's appreciated because alot of people don't wanna do that sometimes. Thanks again.

This was so helpful!! Thanks Morgan! Looking forward to more videos like this!

The color on the box ALWAYS matches the outcome.

You are amazing! Thank you so much for making this video. Do you have time to chat with me because I have some specific questions and I would really like to die/bleach my hair this week. Thank you!

This is why I stopped coloring my hair ......yes I'm all grey and loving it !!

I'm a level 3 my professional older sister told me and she is a hair artist.

Those drugstore kits work fine if you use them on virgin hair and always do the same color.

Thank you for the info. I like that you communicate clearly & concisely. How often can I safely refresh my roots. By the third week my roots are showing.

What does lightener and developmental do to your hair? I want to dye my hair a blue color, using blue jean baby from attic fox, and I need to bleach my hair!

What are some lighteners you recommend for dark hair with a medium violet dye on it... I want to do a 4vr magenta

I'm 21 and I'm thinking about Cutting & dyeing my own hair. I'm needing to cover my WHITE hair; I've had white hair since I was 19.. So I been getting white hair for 2 years.. Help! Lol .. Seriously though

I have jet black hair and want to redye it jet black since my brown is showing but I'm scared because I don't know what brand the salon uses (so I can keep my hair healthy+ not green). I got a trim, recolor, and she trimmed my face frame bangs the total was $135 and I know I can do this at home myself. I have colored wigs+my moms hair+ cut wigs and my hair. Any brand dye suggestions?

I love those pictures in the background.

Color can't lift color but developer can. Little by little but can. I lifted my hair 1 tone lighter with one try. It was colored. I was level 5.

Soooo helpful yes yes do more videos I am new to your channel

She is smart and fun 😊

I have very dark brown hair, how do I refrain from getting red undertones when choosing a hair dye??

Any videos on tips for safely and correctly going red at home? Currently dark brown with some scattered grays. Too afraid to lighten to blonde tones because of fine, natural curly hair. Helllp. Need change. TIA

Really good tips - thanks so much chic!

I have gray hair coming out at the roots - I was interested in if you had any tips for us older people who color our hair so it would come in thicker as I am a guilty one of using drugstore coloring box kits. I have been using Sally Beauty produts just recently trying to care for broken hair and make the new growth come in healthy and thicker.

I have jet black hair and wanted medium brown highlights from drugstore boxes. I was wondering if there were any tips I could use

Thank you, for explain, I have dark brown hair, wanna go a bit lighter like light brown...Do I need to bleach it??? Thank you for your time..

I dont know if you will see this but i have a question! I bleached my hair to a golden blonde. Im waiting until my roots grow out then I want to go lighter since my roots are darker should I start with roots then? Or still start with mids?

I’m 62 recent pic on left. My hair is naturally light to med brown. Graying badly now. Hairdresser only does roots, but I hate red orange and brassy. I want to be a light ash brown. Last time i think there was a mistake made and my hair was black from roots to ends in sections and it wasnt run through my ends. Supposedly the girl washing my hair was to put a glaze on it and i believe it looked black from the previous client who has black hair, something happened. I went to her for yrs good customer never complained but she is lazy to return calls and i texted her what can i do? I went to Sally’s got a clarifying shampoo and crystals u mix with water to help take out build up which they were wrong, i have no build up. It didn’t work so i read online to try baking soda. My hair is beautiful not to sound stuck up and it killed me the only nice thing I’m proud of. I wash only 1x a wk I take good care of it. What can I do for the gray roots that come in and also a mix to start having it come in light ash brown??? Please help me. Thank you so much. Small town not too many decent hair colorists here that KNOW what they r doing. Very upset.

hey girl...so Ive been wanting to dye my hair and dont wanna buy box dye and Ive been considering Sallys....what do you recommend product wise for natural non-dyed dark brown hair to be able to go to a blue black? Any suggestion there

What about after not dying your hair for two years and doing the ombré L’Oréal Kit in my ends (before I watched this video) how long should I wait before going to Sally’s to grab some blonde/something for my hair to come out looking better than what it is now (preferably a blonde). My hair is brown (kind of on the darker side but not black). Any recommendations on what I should get from Sally’s? And how long I should wait before putting more blonde/bleach? Thank you!!

Thank you for this video I wish I would have seen this before I damaged my hair doing myself self with bleach I had to cut so much off . Please do. Video on going dark almost Blk to Carmel brown

I have a question how do I get my different shades 2 one color?

Hey there, love your video you have very helpful tips (: surprisingly I knew most of them, but I definitely learned something oo. I wanted to as you for your thoughts on hair color strippers, I'm debating on whether I should use one and I'd really appreciate your opinion! Thanks in advance 😘

I am greying I love reddish brown color so you suggest ION from Sally’s or what other brands

Thank you so much ❤

Love this! ❤️

Is it true that once’s you color your hair black you can’t go back blonde ??

Can you do a video on how to go lighter at home? And the steps to take if you have box dye on your hair now?

I love this video

Do you do your own hair? I would love to see your process.

I want a lighter brown can i just use developer?

what professional hair brands at sallys do you reccomend?!

What if I wanna lighten my balayage that I already have done? Would I go over it with bleach??? Also my roots r showing a lot but idk if I just put bleach in my roots...this is confusing to me 😭 we r in quarantine so I can’t get my hair touched up from my hairstylist 😞

hi, so not store brought kits. oops I got one. I will to more gray. u love my natural hair colored. I never dye my hair, my natural hair is a little brown with blonde hair light and red. . so what color should I use.

Are there hair color box brands you recommend that will help red hair last longer? Are there secrets to keeping it last. I understand red dye molecules are larger, and thus don’t seep in like other colors, resulting in fade with each wash, but I feel I may not be using the right products to keep my color lasting past 4-6 weeks. Also, what would you recommend for going a lighter red. Do I really have to use a bleach first to go lighter?

So I failed at box dyeing my naturally dark blonde/medium brown hair with a copper blonde box dye from L'Oréal. I started with my roots and ended up only having enough dye for those. "thankfully" I got my hair dyed copper blonde by a professional like 7 months ago so color does kind of fit and isn't too obvious (not unnoticeable either but we'll 😅) today I was at a shop for professional hairstylists and bought some wella professionals dye in a darker shade than I failed with. Am I supposed to put the darker colour on my roots first or do the lengths at first because the box dye wouldn't even reach it the last time? I'm probably going to wait with dyeing for at least two weeks because I don't want to mess up again 😅

Hi Morgan! Thank you for the helpful tips! I have dark hair with hair color on it. I want to cover a few grey hairs and also try giving myself balayage highlights. I know my hair is going to lift to orange. Would I use a blue based hair color to tone versus using a toner that is designed for light hair? Additionally, will the color I use to tone, blend my greys or will I wind up with hot root? Please advise. Thank you!!!

Hi I love your videos thank you for sharing that helps. I have a lot of gray hair I’m 54 and I would like to color my hair and I was thinking of going with like for five and. Would you suggest that or can you make a better suggestion for me thank you very much

i have naturally blonde hair but it's kinda dark underneath and I also have light blonde eyebrows. I want to dye my hair blue... should i bleach it first? I'm scared of the color taking differently to different strands, and I don't want it to look bad. Also, should I dye my eyebrows? It might look weird having dark blue hair and blonde eyebrows. PLEASE HELP! I've googled it so many times and can't find anything :(

I used to box dye my hair JET BLACK in college. Like what? I still regret it. Can you come do that bun on me?!

I have bright blonde hair (mainly because of the sun) but should I go for steel grey or chestnut brown am I supposed to be caution or just risk it.

Can I add conditioner to a store bought L’Oréal blue black dye bottle in package ( Superior Preference infinita 2. )100% grey coverage used white bottle..didn’t add colour ..have full bottle of colour..don’t want to buy another package..thanks

hi, what are the tips on going dark brown, level 2, to a red hair color crimson mixed with magenta maybe?

Question... what happens if I mix a Demi color and a permanent ? I know it says not to mix developer w Demi ... but I have a few ion colors Radiant raspberry light plum and fuscia which is the Demi ? With that being said do I use a 10 or 20 volume developer?

Hi, my natural base colour is 5/6 and I want to get to a 7. Would I use a 20 or 30 developer? Thanks 😊

This is great

my hair is being dyed black last year around december what developer should I use to bleach my hair ?
