The desire to look attractive, and also sometimes to change your image, leads to the fact that every girl begins to think about the question, how often can I dye my hair? Whether too much use of dyes will harm health of hair?
This question is even more relevant for those who, when staining, radically changed their hair color. After all, at the same time, the growing hair roots of a natural color look rather messy. Therefore, when choosing a tone that is very different from natural, you have to tint your hair quite often. But does the hairstyle harm the constant use of colors?
It must be said that the answer to the question of how often you can dye your hair cannot be unequivocal. Firstly, it depends on what paint is used to change the color. After all, today you can change your hair using persistent or washable paint, as well as tinted shampoos or natural dyes. And, secondly, it is impossible to decide how often you can dye your hair without assessing their condition. The fact is that weakened brittle curls do not tolerate the effect of dyes poorly, so it is better not to put the patient's hair at risk.
Let's see how often you can dye your hair with a dye with a high concentration of hydrogen peroxide and containing ammonia, that is, a product that gives a lasting effect. Since the composition of such preparations includes substances that have a harmful effect on the hair, then too often they should not be used. After all, hair needs to be given a period so that they can recover after such an aggressive effect. Therefore, experts recommend the use of resistant paints no more than once every two months. Moreover, you need to remember that it is forbidden to overexpose the applied dye on the hair. This will not bring a more effective and lasting color, but it can affect the health of curls in the most sad way.
Less harmful effect on hair is caused by dyes without ammonia. But the color after using such products is much less. As a rule, the manufacturer guarantees that the paint will stay on the hair for about a month. However, even the use of washable paints does not have the most beneficial effect on the structure of the hair, therefore, such products should not be used more often than once every six weeks.
And what about those whose hair grows very quickly? Do not walk with ugly regrowth roots? In this case, it is recommended to use the following trick: persistent paint is applied only to regrown roots, and washout paint or tinting agent is applied along the already dyed hair length. In this case, it will be possible to reduce the damage caused by curls by frequent staining.
And how often can you dye your hair using a tint shampoo or tonic? Some ladies are sure that this product is harmless and can be used almost every time you wash your hair. In fact, this is not so! Of course, the concentration of hydrogen peroxide in the tint tool is much lower than in ordinary hair dye, but, nevertheless, substances harmful to the curls are also here. Therefore, it is advisable to tint the hair no more than once every 10 days.
As for natural dyes (basma and henna), these products not only do not spoil the hair, but also strengthen them, relieve dandruff and even contribute to rapid growth. However, they should not be abused, since the dye, if used very often, makes the hair heavier, clogging the hair scales. As a result, the curls become dull and too stiff. So a mixture of basma with henna should not be painted often, the optimal break between stains is at least two months. True, it is possible to tint overgrown roots as necessary, not withstanding an eight-week period.
And another question often worries women: is it possible to dye hair during menstruation? I must say that the experts have not yet come to a consensus. Some believe that the hormonal changes that occur during menstruation are reflected in the state of the whole body, including hair. Therefore, supporters of this point of view, believe that the color during menstruation will not be successful - the dye may lie unevenly or quickly wash off. Opponents of this point of view assure that a professional master in the salon will be able to color the hair perfectly , without being interested in what period of the menstrual cycle the client is currently going through.
