If you are looking for a cheaper alternative for your hair color, why not just do it at home? As we all know hair color can be expensive depending on which salon you wanted to go. So, I would like to take you to the process I’ve been to color my hair at home in which I am fairly satisfied because I save a ton of bucks doing it myself (well I get bit of help to apply color on the back so I suggest you grab a friend).
You Need
1. Hortaleza
Hair Coloring Cream #10
2. Hortaleza
Oxydizing Lotion 12%
3. Brush (you can grab one in HBC as well it makes easy to apply the product)
4. Container
(to mix in)
5. Huge
Plastic (to protect your clothes)
7. Plastic
Gloves (I use a regular plastic because I forgot to pick one)
This mixture is enough because
I will just be doing touch up my hair. I’ve grown like 5-6 inches of hair
already so that is the only part I needed to apply the mixture with.
Start applying. I follow most
of tutorials available on the internet which is to section your hair (it makes it
easier that way). I did it in 4 sections. Two is tied up and the rest
was sectioned on each side of my shoulder.
I am aiming for blonde (but
this is so hard to achieve on your own so I only get a light brown). I leave it
for 5 and ½ hours (I know the packaging says less but I did it cause I wanted
to be as close to the blonde I wanted to achieve).
Important
Note: You have to follow the skin test as suggested by the product.
Safety first! If you have allergic reactions to it, don’t do it.
After, I shampoo my hair and put
Moringa Herbal Conditioner it is very important not to skip this step because
the hair needs nutrients back after applying these chemicals. I also applied a
hair serum after my hair dries and iron it for a bit, I see tutorials on the
internet that it helps the color stay longer (but since I didn’t take it too seriously I think it doesn’t
have much effect).
So here how the final result.
My hair is a bit patchy I know
it’s not perfect but I am cool with it. I will go with second round maybe after
two weeks; I did two rounds as well with my hair color before. You can absolutely
perfect it I am sure, you just have to apply the product as evenly as you can.
Grab some help and get a friend, make more sections of your hair so it is
easier to apply and my tip is to apply generously so if you have your full hair
getting colored I think you need to double the amount (depends on your hair length and
thickness).
Hope this helps
