Return to Your Natural Hair Color

Hair color is the one thing about yourself that’s super easy to change. However, sometimes it’s nice to return back to your roots; after all your hair was made that color for a reason.

From Quick Guide: Color Your Hair
Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Do not attempt to do this yourself. Call a salon (preferably one that specializes in color) and make an appointment for color. You will need about an hour and a half time slot.

  2. Step 2

    Find an old color photo of you with your natural hair color to bring.

  3. Step 3

    When you get to the salon tell the colorist that you would like a “glaze” and show him/her the photo. A glaze is a temporary color that is virtually risk-free. It will fade with time, so if you don’t like it, you have nothing to worry about. Do not permanently dye or highlight to your natural hair color.

  4. Step 4

    Once your hair has been “glazed” do not wash it for at least two days. The color will keep better that way.

  5. Step 5

    If you decide you like how it looks, make another appointment about a month later and get it permanently dyed back au natural!
