Keep in mind, that this is general advice and your hair history will determine which steps you would need (hence the salon suggestion). I would try to wait a week before dyeing after the color remover just to give it a break, but color remover can leave you with interesting (ie not attractive) colors, so you may opt to go ahead and dye. If you do DIY, you may want to use a color remover first in case you have color build up (I don't know your dye history nor if you overlap). Just because some options may fade, they are still difficult to remove from the hair 100%, so the commitment is there. But if you decide the DIY route, know what you are doing and what you are in for. Damage does require more work.Īs always, the smart thing to do is to go to a salon. If you choose a dye that uses developer such as the demi and permanent option, you will sustain some form of damage. It is fine to dye your hair if you choose a non damaging route, either henna or semi permanent. Do keep in mind that henna is as permanent as it comes. I do not know much about henna other than it is 100% permanent and could actually help the state of your hair. It will fade and need to be reapplied every so often.Ĥ. It is like a coating of color over your hair. This means that it is a bit less harsh than permanent. This will cause damage, but you wouldn't need to reapply it unless it faded (which could happen if your hair is too porous, but unlikely).Ģ. This is something that needs to be fully understood as removing black dye is impossible without sustaining a good bit of damage. You will not be able to change that hair's color until it is grown out and cut off. Thank you in advance, lovelies! Have a good day or night 😊įirst thing you need to know: Dyeing your hair black is a permanent commitment regardless of which route you were take. Is it safe to dye it that color after years of heat and red dye? When is it safe to dye it that color after just retouching the auburn hair a month ago? Will I lose curl definition? Is this curly hair suicide?

That's why I started to embrace my natural curly hair going on 8 months now (yay! Even if my family was so used to my straightened hair that they still think up to now that I permed my hair lol) and now I want to try to start embracing my dark hair color (only maybe I want it darker than how it was lol baby steps)Īnywaaaay 😅😂 I'm planning on dyeing my hair JET BLACK. But for so long I've been known for that hair color, and recently I've been on this journey of (figuring and) accepting myself wholly - from who I am to my natural physical attributes. For 6 or 7 years now, my hair has been dyed auburn and I stuck with because it just seems me or rather I liked that it really complements my eyes.
