This will help you determine how your hair will react to certain colors. If your hair was a warmer color honey blonde or similar , your hair will likely react with a warmer color now. Similarly, if your hair was a cooler color ash blonde, brunette , your hair will likely have cooler undertones when you dye it now. Determine how long you want your color to last. There are numerous types of store-bought dyes available, including permanent, semi-permanent, and color rinses.
Each of these lasts a different length of time in your hair. These can be purchased at beauty supply stores, drug stores, grocery stores, and box stores like Target or Walmart.
Permanent dyes are long-lasting and can produce very natural-looking colors. They can also produce very strong or dramatic colors. Because they are very strong, however, they can damage your hair, since they need to be left on your hair for a longer period of time when dyeing.
Demi-permanent dyes are a step down from permanent and typically last about washes. These can dye your hair shades darker and also can add striking highlights. Even shorter lasting temporary hair-color dyes are also available. Semi-permanent dyes are temporary, are more natural-looking, and typically last about 10 shampoos. They do not need to be pre-mixed and can instead be used straight out of the box.
These dyes fade progressively, particularly with exposure to air and shampooing. They typically do not contain ammonia or peroxide and are therefore better to use on fragile or already-damaged hair. Temporary color dyes are useful for touch-ups and experimentation with different hair colors.
These include rinses, mousses, sprays, chalks and hair color crayons. They typically coat the hair, rather than color the core of the hair strand. As a result, these types of dyes rinse out within washes. For example, if you bleach your hair and use a temporary blue dye, you might get green hair after the blue fades. Pre-condition your hair with a deep conditioner. Used a day or two before dyeing your bleached hair, a deep conditioner will help build up moisture in your hair, which was likely damaged in the bleaching process.
There are recipes to make your own deep conditioner, which typically use foods as their base. Ideally, you would have pre-conditioned your hair before bleaching it, but if not, you should still use a deep conditioner on your hair before you dye it again. Use a protein filler.
The protein filler will help fill in gaps in your hair so that color will go on more evenly, and they also will help add color back into your hair. Protein filler can also be added to the hair dye. To add protein filler directly to your hair, put a small amount in the palm of your hand and spread throughout your hair. You don't need to rinse this out before applying the dye. Alternately, add the protein filler to your hair dye by adding a very small amount if you add too much, it will make the hair dye too runny and therefore really messy.
To help adjust the color of your hair, add protein filler. For example, if you want to dye your hair from bleached blonde to a warm brown color, you need to have all three primary colors red, yellow, blue going into your hair color. Your bleached blonde hair, for example, provides the yellow color. Use a red protein filler along with an ash-toned brown color, which has blue undertones.
Together, these will result in the correct color. Test for allergic reactions. This step seems time-consuming, especially when you want to get started on dyeing your hair. To do a patch allergy test, apply a dab of dye on a patch of skin behind your ear. Leave the dye on for hours and check for any allergic reaction, such as a rash, itching or burning on that spot.
If you do have an allergic reaction, however mild, you should try a different brand. Be sure to test the new brand for any allergic reactions as well. Prevent stains. Chemical-based hair dyes can easily stain your skin and hands, so take care to cover yourself properly. Wear gloves and cover your clothes with an old towel.
Apply a small amount of petroleum jelly along your hairline and neckline to prevent stains. Mix up the color. If you have purchased permanent dye, you will likely need to mix up the color with a developer in order to attain the correct color. Follow the instructions on the box to mix the color properly. Do a strand test. Gather up a small hunk of hair from the nape of your neck.
Brush the dye onto this strand, starting at the roots and working it towards the ends. Rinse out or wipe off the dye and check the color against a white towel. This will enable you to check if you like the color before dousing your entire head in it.
It will also help you gauge how much time to leave on the dye. Apply the dye to your hair. Divide your hair into four sections. Pin back three of these sections while you apply color to the fourth section. Work the dye into your hair in about 1 inch 2. Be sure to read the instructions on the box for applying the dye to your hair. Start your timer. Be sure to read the instructions on the box for timing recommendations. Typically, you will leave hair dye in for about 20 minutes or more, starting when you have put color in the last section of hair.
Some dyes may even recommend a heated dryer to help the color process more effectively. Rinse your hair and apply conditioner. Gently rinse your hair with warm water to rinse out the leftover dye. Rinse until the water runs clear. Use the packet of conditioner that came with the dye, rubbing it into your hair. Towel dry your hair or let it dry naturally. Blow drying your hair will just dry out your hair even more and can severely damage your hair while it is in this fragile state.
Be sure not to judge your new color until your hair is dry. The color of wet hair almost always looks darker than the actual color. So if your hair is curly or dry, you can expect extra time at the salon to make the color hold, as well as more-frequent return trips for touch-ups.
My bare-bones research from bleaching my hair prepared me for a time-consuming salon trip. That appointment lasted four hours. Adding pigment back in is also an hours-long process. Typically, blonde-to-brunette transitions can last between two and five hours at the salon, including several rounds of color and gloss.

My first gloss was of the tights variety, to add darkness. The second gloss was more sheer for an overall shine. This leveled out the line between my naturally brown roots and my newly dyed ends, making my whole head a creamy, natural brunette.
