I myself will dye my hair if I'm just doing it one color. But when it comes to multiple colors or hilights I just go get it done professionally. What about you? Do you dye your hair yourself? Do you dye other peoples? Or do you get it done professionally?

dye - Hair dye
hi there pandagirl! Me and my mother used to dye our hair together. Like I help her do hers and she help me with mine. Well, that's before I got my hair relaxed. When I got my hair relaxed, I couldn't dye it at home anymore and have to wait for at least three months before dying it after being relaxed. I can't just use any hair dye because relaxed hair is really sensitive and is prone to breakage. That's why I have to leave it in the hand of the professionals. The salon that I go to have some specially formulated hair dye for relaxed, permed or rebonded hair. I also follow it up with hair spa to avoid dryness.

I've had a friend help dye my hair and then I helped dye hers, we both got good results. I have also highlighted another friend's hair using one of those caps you pull strands of hair through, but we didn't get the best results because it makes it hard to get to the roots. My mom dyes her own hair to cover her grey hairs.

Neither, my hair is of its natural color, if my hair starts to lose it hue I will take it in stride for it is all just a part of growing older.
