"Hi! My name is Lillian with Salon Scottsdale, and on behalf of Expert Village.com, we will continue on with our home color retouch. The next thing you are going to want to do is purchase your products. There are many products out on the market. You choose the color, of course that is going to match your hair, and then you choose the product that you want to buy as far as manufacturer. There are many products out on the market. The one important thing to remember is that when you choose the color, you also have to buy the peroxide to mix with the color; they go hand in hand; you need both for a successful color. For the peroxide, it is really important, for new growth, to choose the 20 volume peroxide. Peroxide comes anywhere from 10 volume to 40 volume. 10 volume is too weak to color the roots, and 40 volume would be too strong to put directly on your scalp, because you could cause irritation to the scalp. So these are the products that you purchase, and we will continue on with the next step."
