Reasons to Have Your Hair Dyed By a Professional by Carly Johnson

Are you a blonde who wishes she were a red head? Are you a brunette who wants to find out if blondes really do have more fun? Are you just tired of your natural color and you are in need of a change?

However you feel about the color of your hair, there’s no doubt that you are thankful that you have the option to change the color. Thanks to hair dying products, you can go from a brunette to a blonde, a blonde to a redhead – or you can even dye your hair every color of the rainbow! It’s truly incredible how many options are available for your hair color.

While you can certainly purchase a hair dye off the shelf at your local beauty store, the truth is, if you want to get the best color possible, you are going to want to have a professional color your hair for you. Here’s a look at some of the biggest reasons why you should leave dying your hair to a professional.

The Benefits of Professional Hair Coloring

If you have ever browsed the beauty department of your local pharmacy or discount department store, you have probably noticed that there are dozens of hair color options. While you may be able to find a box that features the color you want to achieve, there is always a chance that the color of your hair won’t be the same as the color on the box. Avoid the hassles and the drama that can come along with a boxed hair color and instead, make an appointment to have your hair dyed at your beauty salon.

Truly Customizable. Sure, you may find a box that features the color that you want, but what if you want a specific color or shade? With a boxed hair color, even though there are a lot of options, you are actually limited by the choices. Think of the box route as a one size fits all hair coloring option. When you go to a salon, you will be able to achieve the exact color and tone you want. A professional colorist is trained to mix colors so that you get exactly what you are looking for.

A Professional’s Touch. Dying your hair may seem like a simple task, but if you want it done the right way, and you want it to look natural, you are going to want to have a professional do it. Hair colorists have been trained to dye hair so that it looks natural. They know how to create highlights and lowlights. They know exactly how to apply the color. The bottom line is that you will achieve a much better look.

Better for Your Hair. The ingredients used in boxed hair color can be quite damaging. They often contain metallic salts, which are quite damaging, and they can also make the color a lot more unpredictable. The ingredients a professional uses are much safer for your hair, leaving it healthy, shiny and more manageable.

Changeable. If the color that is applied at the salon isn’t one you are fond of, it can easily be changed. However, if a boxed color doesn’t come out how you like, you are stuck with it for a while. Those box colors have some pretty strong staying power and it will take a while to wash the color out.

Given these benefits, it is obvious why having a professional dye your hair is a better option than doing it yourself.
