There are plenty of reasons to dye your own hair ranging from saving money to not having to leave your home to having greater control of your results. However, it’s not always easy to do. So, are you ready to dye your own hair? If you answer “yes” to all of the following questions, then you just might be.
Are You Willing to Do Some Research?
Professionals go to school for years to learn how to dye hair, so you can’t expect to figure out how to do it perfectly with no research. The internet is full of valuable information for free that will tell you everything you need to know; you just have to be willing to commit to learning it.
Are You Willing to Spend Some Money?
Sure, dying your hair at home is cheaper than getting it done at a salon, but if you want to do a good job, you can’t do it for free. You’ll need to buy gloves, a brush, a hair coloring bowl, and clips—and that’s not to mention the dye itself, which you’ll want to invest in for the best results instead of just picking up the cheapest box dye at the grocery store.
Do You Have Time?
Especially when you’re just starting out, dying your hair at home will take some time as you get the hang of mixing, sectioning, and painting your hair.
Will You Be Able to Handle it if Your Hair Doesn’t Turn Out Perfect?
Listen, the reality is that you may be disappointed by your results. That’s just the name of the game. If you’ll totally freak out if your hair doesn’t come out salon-perfect when you dye it at home, that may mean you should just pay for a professional to help you.
