Dip dye your hair with me!...

Dip dye your hair with me!...

I have dip dyed my hair about 3 times now and it has turned out great every time. I love this style as it adds something unique to your hair as it wont turn out the same every time.
                   Before                                           After 
So lets get started...
You will need:
  • An old T-shirt you don't mind getting dye on, you can either throw it away after or just keep it as your dying top like i do.
  • A comb that will wash easy.
  • Hair dye applicator .
  • And kitchen roll to put under your top just in case it leaks threw.
  • You may need to pre-lighten the tips of your hair before dip dying if you hair isn't blonde like mine.



Also you will need the colour dyes that you want to you. i am using  Directions hair dye. You can use almost any brand you like. I find this brand the best as they not only add colour to your hair but because they are a conditioning hair dye they condition your hair at the same time. Directions dye also blends really well; if you are planning on using more than one colour like me.
Directions website
Wash your hair as normal but 
do NOT use conditioner as the
 colour will not take.
Split your hair into two. 
Then start gradually adding the 
colour to the tip of your hair until 
you have completely covered all 
of the tips making sure you fad out
of the colour by using softer strokes. 

Wait for 15minutes then wash out.
If you are only adding one dip colour 
you can stop at this stage and style 
your hair as normal. If not then read on.

 Repeat the same with the purple but only adding the purple the the tips of the pink, making sure you fade out with lighter strokes and less product where you what the purple to end. wait a further 15 minutes then wash out.


Tips...
  • Once the 15minutes are up, blast the ends with a hair dryer till it looks as dry as possible, this holds in the colour better.
  • When washing the colour out after the 15minutes only use cold water! This stops the colour from leaking from your hair. but don't worry the water might never run clear.
I hope you enjoyed reading this, let me know if you have dip dyed your hair before and what colour combos you use!
