We all know that getting your hair styled is a great way to emphasize your best features and make your look the best you can be. A great cut style and finish goes a long way in helping you achieve a new and existing look or maintain your present look.
What is less well known is the impact that hair colouring can have. Any great cut can be matched with an equally great colour and any existing or natural colour enhanced or modified!
Do it yourself hair colouring is risky!
It has been widely reported that around one hundred million people in Britain dye their own hair at home with that number increasing annually. Since the recession started, people are increasingly looking for ways to save money so this is natural. With the population of Britain at around 64 million, 100 million do it yourself hair colouring applications a year is still astounding.
Along with this rise in home applications has been a rise in dangerous, damaging (to health) allergic reactions to hair dyes. Skin tests and better still (only available in salons), the manufacturer’s tests are essential to ensure safe application. The print guidelines are often tiny and you have to follow the procedure to the letter to get the best results.
Many don’t, hence the upsurge of allergic reactions. Strangely enough, destroying carpets, curtains, clothing and other things through spillage is another increasing phenomena that goes with do it yourself hair colouring at home.
