Hair Coloring and Swimming?

How long do you have to wait after you colored your hair to go swimming?



Hair Coloring and Swimming?

First, I wouldnt recommend getting your hair colored if you are on a swim team. If its just to get done, I would go at least 2-3 days (maybe a week even). My sister was on her college swim team (as well as a life guard) and got her hair colored blonde. Not only did it turn green (it was funny looking) but it also became dead and started to fall out. She ended up getting her hair cut really short (like to her ears where it looked cute, thankfully) and let her naturally color come in. This may change for each person... but I would suggest in asking a hair dresser for further information. Good luck.

the same as for how long you wait to wash it



Hair Coloring and Swimming?

It depends on what you used to colour your hair to be honest.....certain dyes have different chemicals in them that react with chlorine but after a few days you should be fine either way...colours with ash in them tend to be more prone to turning greenish...But if anything the chlorine will just fade the colour faster. Good luck

Wait for a day to let the color set, and then you can go. If you have any blond streaks or highlights, be careful not to get your hair wet in a pool with chlorine purifiers, as it can give bleached hair a greenish tinge. Best wishes



Hair Coloring and Swimming?

The chlorine in a swimming pool will dry our your hair, and if its been coloured its already stressed. Plus the chlorine could react with the hair colour and cause a colour change.



So ask your hairdresser, but I think a couple of weeks is safe.

Chlorines fade out reds quickly and can make highlights turn funky. It has never happened to me with the highlights but it has faded out my reds. My hairdresser gives me a color protector to delay fading.

I have a question with hair coloring(please read ^_^)?

i dyed my hair black this december and it has been pretty much six months, its also very long almost to my waist. i want to do some thing different, like go to light brown with some caramel high lights or have my long black hair with violet purplish high lights. THANKS OR IF YOU HAVE OTHER IDEAS THEY WILL BE GREAT, I JUST DONT WANT THE SAME COLOR BLACK 6^_^



I have a question with hair coloring(please read ^_^)?

making it lighter will definetly be a process. i feel bad for the hairdresser who has to attempt that project.



once you dye your hair, the only way to make it lighter is w/ bleach. they would have to strip your hair, then highlight and color it. it takes hours on someone with average length hair. so you would probably take all day...seriously.



black w/ violet highlights would be easier to acheive. still a challenge, but easier. they would just have to highlight, then dye over it with the correct shade of red. pretty simple, but again, the length of your hair would make it challenging.



i dont know what you look like, so i cant tell you what would look better. if you already have black hair, chances are dark colors look good, and you could definetly pull of the violet streaks. i'm not sure about the lighter brown, because i dont have a picture.



if you decide to change, just make sure you tell the receptionist exactly what you want to do AND how long your hair is so they book out enough time for the stylist. most people don't have hair that long, so we don't usually prepare for it. DON'T ATTEMPT TO DO ANY OF THIS BY YOURSELF! GO TO A SALON!



good luck



I have a question with hair coloring(please read ^_^)?

black, caramel, and blonde.. very dramatic. you'd look good. you could even put a bright red in there to spice it up!



I have a question with hair coloring(please read ^_^)?

HOT



I have a question with hair coloring(please read ^_^)?

who is going to do it you or your hairstlylist?



I have a question with hair coloring(please read ^_^)?

you are so beautiful that any color will suit you.



still u can go for caramel hjgh lights on very light brown



I have a question with hair coloring(please read ^_^)?

the purpleish color looks real good my friend jsut had it done



I have a question with hair coloring(please read ^_^)?

Both your ideas sound great. The one thing you must do is carefully protect your hair from damage caused by exposing your long hair to repeated chemical treatments. Have a hairdresser help you with your selection of color and it's application.



Once hair leaves the scalp, it's dead, and cannot repair itself. So prevention is tantamount. Changing your color, with any formula, does damage to your hair, causing split ends and eventually breaking it off. If you really want to change hair colors twice a year, you should consider cutting your hair much shorter. Professional help will help prolong the length of your hair, especially if you decide to color it less often, or maintain the same color.

When does breakage or hair loss usually happen after several times of coloring my hair in four days?

So I wanted to get my light brown hair a little darker. I bought this clairiol color. I usually use loreal but thought about something new. So it colored my hair black. I tried putting in blonde and nothing. So i went to a salon and he put brown hair color in it and still nothing. The top a little lighter but the bottom still black. So I went somewhere else and she put in brown highlights which is so much nicer. She told me to come back in 4-6 weeks to get more to get the rest of the black out. Now I'm worried if my hair will start to fall out or break or what. When does that usaully happen. I'm so scared! I bought paul mitchell deep conditioning for once a week to help. I've only used it once I guess I should give it time. Can anyone help?



When does breakage or hair loss usually happen after several times of coloring my hair in four days?

Buy shampoo %26amp; conditioners that are specifically made for color-treated or damaged hair. My hair was kinda fried after years of coloring... I just did a lot of intense conditioning.



When does breakage or hair loss usually happen after several times of coloring my hair in four days?

Yes, you could end up with some severe breakage and damage. It might be a week or 2 until you notice it, or you could be very lucky and not have your hair break too badly.



Remember that hair is not really living tissue, like your skin. Once its damaged that's it. Conditioners can help to keep it from losing moisture and breaking, but they won't do much if its already damaged.



But if these different colouring formulas weren't left on too long and weren't too harsh (not a lot of ammonia or peroxide) you might be all right.



1. Stop colouring your hair for at least a month.



2. Use a deep conditioner 3 times a week. Or better yet, use extra virgin olive oil and leave it on for at least an hour once a week. Olive oil is the only thing that saved my hair after I bleached it to death.

Hair coloring ideas? Top deck?

I want to color my hair. I was thinking of doing the "top deck" idea. Does anyone know what I am talking about? If so, do you know where I can find a really good picture of it?



If you don't know what a "top deck" is, I was told it is where you have dark brown or black on the bottom and blonde on the top. I can't find any pictures of it. Thanks in advance.

How can I fix a tragic hair coloring incident?

I'm a guy with short hair--partly graying. A solon dyed my hair a rather magenta/black color, and then used color remover within a couple of hours. The result is something of a brassy dark auburn--NOT what the doctor ordered! How can I tone this down to make it more subtle? Some gray still shows, which is good. Can I use a non-peroxide semi-permanent wash over this?



How can I fix a tragic hair coloring incident?

You may want to try Dawn Dish soap to try and strip any color out of four hair first. My Mom in law is a hairdresser and she said the Dawn soap will take some of the color out. You may have to wash it a few times though. I would try this 1st b/4 putting any more chemicals on your hair. Good luck.



How can I fix a tragic hair coloring incident?

shave it



How can I fix a tragic hair coloring incident?

Carmel took my answer....haha....



Shave it bald. And men coloring their hair to cover the gray......yeah women know this trick......and it doesn't impress them......give it up.



How can I fix a tragic hair coloring incident?

I'd go back to your original salon and have them fix it. I'd not try anything myself because you don't know exactly what they did and what they used. Hate to make matters worse.



How can I fix a tragic hair coloring incident?

go back to the salon .. They are legally bound to fix it....



How can I fix a tragic hair coloring incident?

Have a professional help you. But I got to tell you, gray hair on a man is very sexy. Why cover it?



How can I fix a tragic hair coloring incident?

have it redyed a darker color and let it grow back in natural, then have it redyed the color you want. This will cover up your mistake until it can grow out.



How can I fix a tragic hair coloring incident?

First of all grey hair on a man is very sexy and should be left alone to impress that special lady. If you really hate it use a colour that is closest to your natural so it dosnt look treated.A semi colour will only help temperary to fix your colour now. I would suggest a permanent colour instead as close to your natural as possible and this should get rid of the reddish tones you now have. Stay away from the ash colours though as they have a greenish effect to them. Go to Shoppers or other popular drug store and talk to someone in that department as they know what colours cover up what your trying to get rid of.



How can I fix a tragic hair coloring incident?

yes, you can use a demi hair color or semi hair color. You may want to try a color that has a nuetral base.

Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

i'm getting my hair colored thursday but i was wondering if its best to wash it or not? i've heard that both ways work but i was wondering what one would make the color take better?



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

wash it 1- 2 days b4 colouring and dont add any serum or leave in conditioner or any other hair product. let it have its natural oil only.



hair products will interfere with the process of colouring and natural oil will protect ur scalp against the side effects of colouring



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

It sounds weird, but the dirtier your hair is, the better it takes color. So don't wash it :)



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

no don't.



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

no you should'nt but if you do then it won't make that big of a difference



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

You are not supposed to wash it. (my friend is a hair colorist)



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

yes you should it will clean your scalp and take away the extra dirt so your hair can look fresh when u color it



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

Don't wash it within 24 hours before.



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

they say the color takes better on unwashed hair...I got that advice from a top hair colorist in a ny salon



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

wash it first to remove oil and build up, so the color goes directly on your hair and stays on longer.



I have dyed my hair several times.



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

no, in some instructions, it mentions not to wash your hair right before,i think the coloring "sticks" better to your hair when its dirty, and wait 24 hrs or at least until the next day before you wash it again.



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

You should wash your hair at least 24 hrs. prior to coloring.

Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

Ok well not washing it helps grab the color better. Go two days if you can 1 if you can't and the color should work out great. Washing it first there is nothing for the color to hold onto. Imagine squecky clean and how your hands slide off your hair. You don't want your color doing that after only 3 days.



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

The dirtier the hair the better the color will take.



Should i wash my hair before coloring it? or not?

Don't wash it. The dye takes better when your hair is dirtier. But if you are coloring it like a purple or a blue or some un-natural looking color like that, then wash it. In that case, it's better if your hair is still damp if you color it a really wild color.



Once you dye your hair, try not to get it wet for another three to four days, just so all the dye has time to settle in and not wash out so quick. :)



And be sure to get it all re-done every four to six weeks. You probably know all this already, but just in case, lol.



Have fun with your new hair color! :)
