The order to stay home has been seen all over the United States. Most people are in an area that they have been asked to stay at home and to do what they can to socially distance themselves. There are lots of areas that also have shut down non-essential businesses. This is not only difficult for the business owners that want to continue to pay their bills but for the people that want to use the services. When it comes to the self-care arena, hair, nails and skin are important to many people and they want to keep up with the style and care that they are used to. The shutdown will cause many people to not be able to get their manicure and pedicure done but also means that your hair will start to grow out and this can be problematic. People that are coloring their hair professionally don’t want to skip their appointment and this can lead to people trying new things. The problem is that the doors will all open back up and your hairstylist will not be too happy with your DIY attempts. The avenue that seems to be most popular is to get boxed hair dye. Hed2Toe Salon & Luxury Consignment Boutique outlines why you want to avoid this route.
Why Do Hairdressers Hate Box Dye?
Box hair dye is unpredictable. One of the most common problems you will come across is that boxed hair dye is very unpredictable. You walk into the store and look at the cover of the box and think that is the color you want or the color that matches what you have already. The issue is that the box color is a basic one size fits all and that means the color on the box is not always what you will get. You have to take into account the color that your hair currently is and what the box will create. The outcome will not be what you want it to be. When you visit a salon they are able to mix the color to react to your current color. This means they can tailor a color for you and you alone. You want to make sure that you avoid box colors even when you are stuck at home.
Why are Salon Dyes Better than Box Hair Dye
One of the issues that you are going to have when you use box hair is that the color that you are adding to the hair is not getting into the cuticle of the hair. It is simply masking over the hair that you have and that is why the outcome is never what you want it to be. The color from the box is just a stain and will look nice on the first day but once you start to wash your hair it will start to change the overall look making it dull and lackluster. The professional color is able to treat the cuticle of the hair and this is why you have a shiny and longer lasting result.
Should I Just Wait for My Next Hair Color Appointment?
When it comes to keeping your hair the way you like it most people want to have it done every six to eight weeks. The fact is that your hair stylist would rather you wait and have your color grown out for longer and let them correct it when the doors are opened back up.
