Do you have any tips for dying hair??

Hii, I really want to dye my hair to a skunk hair kind of, but I have no idea what im going to do..

Ive watched a few tutorials so I know kind of the steps, but I were wondering if you guys had any tips or product to recommend??

Also my hair is this very dark brown like you might think it's black, but in the sunlight you can clearly see how brown it is. it has never been died and I have a sensitive scalp. Im going to either keep the stripes blond or dye it purple.ย 

Pls send tips!!

Not so much tips as it is just general advice


I assume as you have dark hair that you're bleaching it first (depending on what brand you're using you might not have to, i just have in my experience) so make sure you're careful with it especially around your scalp. With bleach I'd normally recommend doing your roots LAST bc if it's on your roots too long it can be rly damaging and worst case if its not on long enough it just isn't as light as you'd want it to be.


Obvi IDK what brand you're using, but look into people who have used the same brand as you if you can, for example the ones i use (Schwarzkopf LIVE, purple) is really good but always comes out a couple shades darker than it claims, so just make sure you're aware of things like that.


COLD WATER. The next couple times you shower you're gonna want to use colder water as the hotter the water it is the more it'll fade the dye. If you can get some colour protectant shampoo to leave it vibrant but this isn't necessary because it doesn't make a huuuge difference, atleast it hasn't for me. Head and shoulders shampoo makes it fade quite fast tho so I'd recommend not using that atleast for a little while after dying it


Sorry if that's not really what you're looking for, if you have any other questions i can try and answer them but no promises :)
