Blonde Hair Coloring Tips

After you have decided what shade of blonde you want to be there are a few hair-coloring tips to follow. Never wash your hair the same day you are coloring your hair. Also wash your hair the day before for better results. Your hair should be completely dry before applying any color. Apply moisture around your hair line to prevent hair color from dying your skin on your face or neck.

If you are coloring your own hair, part hair into sections and apply color from the roots to the ends. Follow the packet directions and apply the color evenly. Leave the solution on for the time that the directions say, and then rinse hair out with warm water for 5 minutes. Squeeze out excess water and apply conditioner that comes with the color kit. Do not wash your hair for a few days for best results.

Remember that semi permanent color washes out with each shampoo and it will gradually fade. Touch up your hair color regularly to prevent your roots or gray from showing and to keep your hair color looking even.
