How to Get More Time Out of Your Salon Hair Coloring!


Hair color does wonders for a woman’s spirit and self-esteem.  However, you may also be concerned what too frequent exposure to those hair coloring chemicals may be doing to endanger your overall health. So what are you to do when you want your hair to look good?  The answer is you want hair color that will be low maintenance, which means more time between colorings to lessen the risk.

What I am about to share with you can also be done at home, but it a more complicated process than merely using a box of hair coloring.  Therefore, it is best to seek the help of a salon professional because what you want to ask for are adding highlights that you can see partially from underneath and inside the hair.  

Adding a few different shades in the hair makes for lower maintenance once it starts to grow and look less noticeable.  This will extend your hair coloring longer. 

Do not confuse this with a technique like balayage that also uses highlights, only in that process they are painted on top instead of underneath and inside the hair.  Read my earlier post for more on balayage.

Try it for yourself and you will extend that hair coloring a bit longer than you think!
