The Colours of Fancy

Everyone gets bored sporting the same look over and over. Given the limitations each one’s hair has, few looks are possible by cutting hair. Colouring the hair is hence, a popular option. With numerous shades available, a new look is easy.

Hair can be coloured all through to give the whole mane a new shade. Popular colours are burgundy and woody shades. Another method is highlighting, where only strands from sections of the hair are taken and the colour is changed to give a streaked effect.

Take care while selecting the colour for your hair. Pay attention to your natural skin tone and ensure that the colours you select complement it well. Blondes, for instance, look outrageous on tanned skin. Look before you leap.

Care must be taken while colouring or highlighting the hair. Hair gets easily damaged with the exposure to chemicals. Problems like dandruff, hair fall and dryness can arise due to colouring. Pointers to remember while colouring the hair follow:

CONSULT A GOOD STYLIST: Make sure you go to a recommended salon, or visit someone you know has experience. Not only will the outcome be better, damage can be avoided. Colouring and highlighting involve going very close to the root of the hair without actually touching it. Inexperienced stylists can run the colour right to the root and burn it, ruining both texture and growth of the hair.

CONDITIONER: Conditioning coloured hair well is a must since the chemicals cause dryness in the hair which makes it coarse and lifeless. Conditioning can help restore the moisture in the hair and protect it well.

PRODUCTS: Avoid the use of too many hair products on the hair while it is coloured since chemicals could react. Most product lines come with variants for coloured hair. Opting for these is a good idea.

Making peace with the way your hair looks is the best solution. If not, be careful when you seek help. Not all of it is beneficial always.
