Common conclusions

Keeping up the dye in your hair is a lot of work. Most people only look at the fun part of dying, but only much later they realize the hassles of its maintenance. In fact, you may have to color once three to four weeks to keep up the same looks. Another important aspect of maintenance is the high cost it entails. While a single box of dye may cost only a few dollars, buying it once every few weeks can quickly add up. So, that's something to consider too.

Your regular drugstore shampoos and conditioners won't do the trick for you. Rather, you need good quality shampoos that can be significantly more expensive. And that's because it makes no sense to spend on expensive coloring to lose it all to low-quality shampoos and conditioners that may contain many harsh chemicals in it.

To give you an idea, pastel hair colors demand more maintenance than dark-colored ones. When you use light colors like pink and lavender, you'll have to dye them more frequently when compared to darker and more natural ones. In other words, lighter dyes are less lasting than darker ones and you should be prepared for the increased frequency.

Dyeing your hair once in a while is not so bad and may not have a ton of impact on your hair. But if you opt for lighter colors or decide to dye often, it can damage your hair because these dyes are nothing but chemicals that are put on your hair. Since they are not natural for the most part, they tend to impact your hair in the long run. Again, a dye is not bad, but doing it frequently can impact your hair negatively.

Most times, people tend to look at the dye color and fall for it, without assessing if it will suit their hair, skin color, eyes, and overall personality. Imagine a serious person dying a vibrant purple shade. While this is not bad, you may not feel too comfortable with it after the initial attraction wears off. To prevent feeling disappointed, make sure you do thorough research to decide which color will suit the best for you.

Great! This will save a lot of money and effort for you.

Be ready to make as many trips as you need to a professional salon to keep your hair at the right color. And keep in mind that this can cost you some extra money, so provision for it as well. Now, one thing to note is that dying your hair is not a bad idea at all, provided you know what it entails.
