I've dyed my hair honey blonde, green, red, and orange....I'm so here for this....my Natural hair is fairly healthy.....I'm so here for this thanks Jalen
Terri Jones I dyed my hair recently for the first time and instead of it coming out purple it came out like a berry red/purple color, could you tell me where I went wrong w/ the color not turning out right??
Issa Tomboy Coloring hair can be complicated, you should do some more research on coloring and color itself. Purple is made from a range blue and red. Different amounts/ratios of red and blue pigment decide the hue and intensity of the purpled. Natural dark hair tends to have yellow/orange/reddish undertones especially when you lighten it and remove the brown/black melanin. that could be why the color leaned more towards a reddish color. To achieve the exact color, you want little other pigments that can affect the light reflection of the dye. Bright Purple can be difficult to achieve for some people and often requires a good bleaching/color removing first.
Lovely Video! Apologies for the intrusion, I would love your opinion. Have you tried - Millawdon Goodbye Gray Trick (do a google search)? It is a great one of a kind product for learning how to reverse gray hair fast minus the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my work buddy got astronomical success with it.
@@4purpleforever693 Omg that makes so much freaking sense I used to dye my hair and I swear it felt healthier to me and absorbed all the products I put in but now I’m all natural and it seems like nothing gets in
I've been natural for 20 years. In that 20years I used a blow dryer 3 times. 2weeks after Lockdown happened in South Africa I was like you know what, I'ma colour my hair. Colour I chose was Pink. Then I found out that I have to bleach 1st. I was like cool. Did my research, made a short prayer and prepared for the worst. I was like Afro Beans if this is it then this is it. Day 1, 1st week, I bleached the top section of my hair. Day 2, 2nd week, I bleached the middle section of my hair. Then toned Day 3, week 3. I coloured my hair pink. I'd Pre-poo with coconut oil the night before every step. The only thing I've added to my regime is a protein treatment. My hair is Medium Porosity, even though it's bleached. Breakage, nope. Shedding normal. I didn't experience the dryness, brittle etc that everyone spoke of. My wash days are every Sunday, and I Only rehydrate and remoisturise my hair on Wed/Thurs during the week I closed my eyes, made a Prayer and Took the risk and ran with it. Absolutely loving my Hair Journey 💕😍✌️
Perfect timing! I haven’t finished watching yet but I desperately want to dye my hair , I am going for blonde. I’ve had colorless natural hair my entire life I’m ready for a drastic change ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@pplcraveKIANA I DID dye it, it’s a little lighter I got scared so I chickened out and got like a light brown box dye instead of blonde. You’re on the right track making an appt that’s what I should’ve done 😩 it’s not bad it’s just not what I want
@@leonards9871 oof I’m not sure a year ago but I’ve dyed my hair multiple times since then and I use Olaplex conditioners 3, 5, and 8. Shampoos is whatever natural one I have laying around sparingly. I have locs now so I don’t use it (conditioner is too thick) but Aphogee has an amazing deep conditioner in a jar.
Great video and I love the hair! I dyed my hair red in March 2022. I used Creme of Nature. Two colors. To maintain healhy hair, I used a deep conditioner and a hot oil treatment every time that i washed my hair. All of the dye has grown out and i still use these products. My hair has maintained good health and has retained length. Steps: Hot oil, rinse, shampoo, rinse, deep conditioner&hot oil (2 plus hours) under a shower cap, rinse, therapuetic leave in for 5 minutes, rinse, leave in moisturizer while hair is drenched, finger comb then hair comb, air dry in large braids. Hasnt failed. Im thinking about dying it again. I learned about finger combing while watching her (NaturalReign) video. ❤
omg yes finally this is the video we’ve all been waiting for, especially since you’re one of the rare natural hair youtuber who’s hair hasn’t been damaged from color 🥰
I used to have low porosity hair im a type 4 natural btw . After blesaching my hair 2-3 times then using box dye all in two days my hair survived and still looks healthy only thing is now my hair is high porosity i cant explain it. My curls are the same. I still have shrinkage no visible damage only change is now my hair actually obsorbs water withingm seconds vs before bleaching it . I think my hair did so well because it was low porosity so all the altering i did it took very well . but like she said do it at your own risk not everyone has a success story 🤔☺ hope my story helps some of you. ** also i wanted to add that before dying my hair i was doing aloe vera treatments for a month i didnt use much heat little to none just kept my hair moisturized also i hadnt used things like shampoo for a year i only co washed . that might also have affected the reason why my hair did so well with the bleaching it was very healthy before
Girl THANK YOU FOR THIS- I was really bout to go neon green but now I know I need to relax. My hair is thick and healthy but I'm gonna give it some time. I might do a darker green instead and on the tips since I have long hair. Gotta preserve what we can
You got me when you said that you stoped straightening your hair, which is exactly what worked for me. What you said helped me! And I’m a straight hair girl. I don’t damage hair unless I’m dying it. I’m blonde now. And I your advice helped! Thank you 🙏!!!
Yes, but the semi permanent colors are Cellophane products. It's not like hair die which strips your hair. Cellophane deposits the pigment onto the hair. Plus cellophane coats the hair and fills in the gaps, which are good for high porosity hair. I've done it for years. It's amazing for our hair.
My hair is natural and dark brown (about a 3) and I’m going to a professional stylist tomorrow to get red balayage done. I’ve been chickening out (well honestly just nervous about a new look, taking time to research and find a skilled professional and being talked out of it, booking tons of consultations)for a year now but I think I’m ready. I have healthy hair so I’m hoping with the proper care, products and routine hair maintenance, I’ll be fine. Thank you for this video. Send me luck y’all 😭✨
I once box dyed my hair blonde,😂 my hair turned out to be a bright orange.🤣 I was in the military that was a no. I was washing my hair everyday trying to get that color out my hair. I was on leave for 30 days. That helped some. But that orange faded in to a pretty light chestnut.
So yea I definitely bleached my hair to lift the color before tinting it pink & purple and it’s only healthy from following your regimens and a few other youtubers. Cuz I refused to lose my hair and like you’re saying my hair had flourished and still grown with the color in it.
You saved my life with this video . Very thorough and very detailed. It just trumps, everything I was questioning when going from my naturally dark colored hair to the extreme blonde. I mean i was about to leave to go to the store. And I said let me just check to see what worked for someone else with more of the similar texture to mine. Thanks , You Rock!!!
Thanks I now realize ive been doing something wrong. Ive been dyeing my faded red hair and new growth with the same developer strength combined with using permanent hair dye. For this time i luckily have 10 and 30 developer so I can use the 10 to deposit the color on the ends and 30 on the new growth. I also know now that after this dye job i can use semi permanent i didnt even know there was a difference. Thanks again.
Thanks for these tips! I haven’t dyed my hair since I have been natural actually and I really want to dye my hair purple I always wanted to try color on my natural curls I’m just afraid my hair will get damaged but I think I’m going to try these tips out. Lastly, your hair is so beautiful 😍
Oh shi- 3years I commented this😮 Update I guess, sin never got around to dyeing my hair😂 But I'm back to this video cause now Im FINNALY gonna dye my hair
I'm very guilty of this. I got my hair colored 2 yrs ago red from black. It had to be lifted. I thought she knew what she was doing. She came highly recommended. Here it is 2 yrs later I went from bra strap hair to top of ear length. So red is my favorite color. I'm dealing with my big chop but miss my red. Once the red wore off it left an orange color now it's blonde on top in the middle like a mohawk. I chopped so much off it ain't funny. We live & learn. Thank you for sharing your information!❤
Man my hair used to be so long, and over time it got damaged from perms. It's been years and I have not used a perm at all. My hair isn't as long as it used to be but it's slowly growing back. I want to dye my hair though so I've been watching numerous videos before doing it. And this is my first time dying it.
That point you made about the three types of porosity low, medium and high as you mention it varies how long you change your hair color especially when it lifts. I'm watching this because I want to dye my hair as form of self care, I want my new hair color to be semi permanent because I don't want to damage my hair. My hair is healthy and my hair type is oily and I have black hair. I wash my hair every few days to keep it clean, hydrated, and healthy. My choice of color is dark magenta. I almost forgot to mention, I take care of my hair well I wash my hair every few days probably between 4-5 days and I make sure I thoroughly clean my scalp with shampoo, and condition my hair last and I dry my hair with a towel to avoid hair damage I avoid hair dryers and flat ironing because I don't see myself using it unless I'm in a rush. Normally. I let my air dry because I am airy. Just kidding. I do air dry my hair often to avoid damaging my hair and before I wash my hair I detangoe my hair with a comb or brush.
I've been red since I been natural. I only dye my once a year and when I do dye my hair I do it on stretch hair so I can get my roots. Then I go behind with it semi permanent rinse for my ends. I only straighten my hair 3x a year just to see my ends so I can trim them. I do protein treatments twice a month and I deep conditioning every wash day.
thank you so much. my friend asked me to dye her hair but i have no experience dyeing a hair of her texture before and i want to make sure i dont mess it up
I’ve done every color when I was really short now I’m letting it grow out. It’s growing good. I rather do my own. You learn that way. Deep conditioning is important right after. My hair is naturally curly I’m here for this. Can’t wait till it get your length ❤
So I just recently dyed my hair ginger/orange I lifted it first before dying it orange with the box dye then I also used a semi permanent dye color called Cajun spice its vegan and it worked so well So far my hair still looks healthy and good I make sure to keep it moisturized daily with oil cos I flat ironed my hair so until I'm ready to go back to natural 8ve been using native hair oil
Needed to see this! Dyeing my hair this weekend, super nervous. 8 years ago, after constant bleaching/highlights and straightening my naturally curly dark hair I decided to go natural. That was in 2013, don’t get me wrong the first few years I’d straighten my hair 2-4 times a year and diffuse it. However, it’ll be two years next week that I haven’t straightened or applied heat to my hair🎉 I’m proud of myself lol cause chile straight hair is tempting af 😂 In 2017 I finally decided to dye my hair again but was very cautious. I did the ombré and very gradually went lighter, took me like almost two years to get it light (Carmel/blonde). Due to Covid, I couldn’t get my hair done anymore. So I decided to get a box and die my hair chocolate brown. And I’ve dyed it twice now since going dark. It’s been very liberating not needing to worry about root touchups and My hair was very healthy even with highlights, because I only got touch ups. Never had my stylists go through my entire hair. Anyway now as a brunette, I have a grown bored with this color and I’ll be turning 32 next week and really want a change. I’ve been wanting red hair again, I had it very red (magenta/red) when I was a teen. But I always straightened my hair then, I think my hair will look so good now because it’s curly and for the most part very healthy. Thanks for the tips, I’m so nervous but I am going to definitely make sure that I do deep treatments and not straighten it or anything lol I’ve come too far!
Happy birthday btw, I'll be 32 on the 20th! I was just looking for the color I had in high school too! Just thought that was funny and had to say hello to a fellow '89er looking for a change! Lol!😄😊
I got my hair done by my auntie and she’s a professional and my hair got damaged as f*ck it was ugly kinda dry I was thinking about cutting it and start over, I used to feel really ugly cuze my hair use to get a lot of compliments as you can imagine at college . But I didn’t cut it and wait till it got better and now I’m here with my hair and people just love it 😊 💓.
I'm going to dye my hair a ruby red tomorrow and I really hope my curls live, I don't wanna go from type 3 to type 2. I think they'll be okay though because of your advice. Thank you so much. 💗
Hey girl! So how did it go? Because I am also planning on going ruby red either today or in a few days and I am using adore hair dye. I too have natually type 3 virgin hair and want to ensure that it doesn’t get damaged. Also, how did the color turn out on your hair? Help a girl out plsss
@@joelletab4626 It actually went great! My hair looks just as healthy and it picked color up really well. My hair turned out so nice, literally everyone compliments me at school! I actually had some balayage done a year ago, so I already had lighter ends than my roots, but my hair was relatively dark. So if you have dark hair, expect a deep red at home and a vibrant red in the sun. Just make sure you concentrate the dye on every strand and you take care of your hair as usual. Maybe add extra treatments like conditioning products. If you'd like, I could show you pictures on instagram or Snapchat. Good luck! 💗
I let my grandma lighten my hair to like a honeycomb color like literally if u google a honeycomb it’s that color, I was really scared that I caused REALLY bad damage but my curls kept coming back so this video helped me keep my cool.
i actually lost my hair and had a huge bald spot trying to dye my 4c hair lol i don’t think i’d ever do it again unless i find a professional who knows how to work with 4c hair
I was on the right track then, since I only want to dye mines mahogany or purple🤣😂. Chocolate brown was even an option way before I ever thought of blonde. But I have definitely have had some experience with these things before when I dyed my hair the first time, in which I dyed it red when I originally did the big chop. I have always had the routine of deep conditioning my hair after every wash. Although, my definition of a deep conditioner is a lot different than everyone else's. I usually don't use deep conditioners themselves because they irritate my terribly sensitive skin or make my hair feel like it's as dry as a bone afterwards. So I use my regular conditioner as a deep conditioner, I just leave it on for 30 minutes or so and then wash it out. Afterwards, I lock in the moisture from the water with oils or use a water based moisturizer with water and oils. This has allowed me to maintain my hair for the longest, but I learned this over time not right away. I feel like my hair is in good condition considering the fact that I have paid a lot of attention to it by avoiding heat, damaging styles, and color, but I do wonder sometimes. I may be in desperate need of a trim, but I have little to no trust in hairdressers because of a past trauma where I had patches of hair falling out, I also haven't attempted it myself either. It's going on four years and I'd be lying to say I'm not worried. And just when I found a stylist that I felt like I could trust Rona got in my way.
Very helpful. I am thinking of doing the peroxide thing and then going dark purple, but didn't want to just jump into it because I'm also trying to grow my hair.
I’ve been wanting to dye my hair but is been doing so well and it’s so healthy, shiny, and springy. I’m medium to high porosity but I heard so many youtubers say their regular products stop working after they dye their hair have you noticed any of your favs not working for you anymore
Girlll, i was so stupid. I straightened my hair and coloured it the week after going curly again. Its been 2 months and i just have straight hair in the front. Tryna figure out how to save my hair without cutting it😭
Naomi Lindveld try olaplex number 3, it’s not cheap but it works because I did the same thing smh 🤦🏽♀️ I wear twist outs to hides the damage and put perm rods on the ends to help encourage the curls
thank you for this tips, ive never died my hair yet and was thinking of doing it next year by a professional, i learnt a lot in this vid :)) subbed btw!
Girllllll wow wow I love love your hair the thickness came across this because I was searching for hair dying and boom I clicked on it Love you explanation Watching from FIJI🇫🇯
Aww no 🥺 I just bought adore hair dye yesterday I was so excited to dye it today 😂. I’m so glad I found this video before I tried it because I would’ve been so upset when I realized the color didn’t show up 😂😂. I just got my hair back healthy & I’m not consistent with deep conditioning yet so I’ll give it a couple months before permanently dying my hair again lol.
Just exactly what I needed cus I want to color my hair but I worked soooo hard to get it to waist length and I’m scared coloring it will ruin my hair. Thank you
