Dyeing your hair colour is one of the quickest ways to change your look, or to maintain your natural hair colour. It can make the biggest change in your appearance and make you feel brand new! But before you start your transformation, there are a few things you should know…
In this blog, we will share everything you need to know about colouring your hair — from fun facts and expert tips to why you should book your next colour treatment at Project Cosmetology.
Why do we colour our hair?
Hair coloring has been an interest to us for thousands of years. Ancient Egyptians used natural dyes like henna, to tint their hair. Hair colouring is not only used to cover gray hairs, it is about expressing your personality, boosting your confidence and trying something new.
Warm, cool or neutral: What suits you the best?
Not every shade works for every skin tone. During a consultation, we look at your skin’s undertone to help choose the most flattering colour.
- Warm undertones: Golden blondes, copper reds, and rich browns look amazing on you.
- Cool undertones: Ashy tones, platinum blondes, and cool browns are most suitable for you.
Fun Facts About Hair Color
- Blonde is the trickiest shade to achieve, especially if you naturally have darker hair.
- Previously dyed hair can only be lightened by bleach, not with colour.
- Box dye contains metals that can be very difficult to remove from the hair
- The first commercial hair dye was invented in 1907 by the founder of L’Oréal.
- Sun exposure and chlorine can cause your color to fade faster — protect it with color-safe shampoos.
- Grey hair can be more resistant to dye, so we use special techniques to ensure even, natural-looking results.
