Looking for a new head? What if you change your hair color? But between the fear of damaging your mane and the hesitation concerning the choice of the hue , it is a real puzzle. To avoid stress and limit the damage, here is the advice of Garnier Fructis for a color more brilliant than ever!

Does coloring damage the hair?

No, if you respect the pause times and the recommendations of use. However, it is better not to radically change color too often by discolorations because a hair sensitized loses its brightness, but can also react differently to the color by not giving you the expected result. To keep hair healthy, shiny and soft , you must choose formulas that respect your hair and bring them strength and radiance. The ideal solution would be to use products specially designed for colored hair.

How often should I renew my coloring?

The maintenance of the color requires in principle a regular coloring of the roots, every 4 to 5 weeks.

What do I need to do my coloring?

As a general rule, in addition to the accessories already included in the pack purchased (gloves, brushes, hats, etc., depending on the type of coloration), you will need:

  • From a towel (avoid light colors)
  • Cleansing wipes to clean any traces of color left on the skin
  • A timer , an alarm clock or a watch to respect the pause time
  • A pair of scissors to cut the applicator tip if necessary. Also think about what you want to do during the time of exposure to relax (reading, music ...). But be careful, never use metal utensils.

I already have a color, can I make some locks?

Yes quite. The locks can break the uniformity of the color, and give relief to your hair. In the case of a henna staining, we advise you to wait for the complete regrowth of your hair.

I do not like my new color, can I find my natural color?

In the case of a much lighter or darker coloration , we advise you to visit a hairdresser. If you have a color that is close to your own but with a pronounced reflection or if you have a slightly darker color, you should remove your current color with a bleach then apply a color with natural reflections slightly lighter than your original color .

Do dark colors harden the lines?

It depends on your face and your age. A darker color accentuates the personality traits . Generally with age, it is best to take a shade lighter or similar to your natural color. If you want to assert your personality, then choose a sustained reflection. But it is above all a matter of taste.
