How to Dye Roots

So you've taken the plunge and dyed your hair a new color. Let the maintenance begin!
Touch up your roots every four to five weeks to keep your new color seamless.

Instructions

• STEP 1: Touch up your roots with the same color you originally used to dye your
hair. Select the same brand so that your roots will blend in with the rest of your
hair.
• STEP 2: Wash and towel dry hair.
• STEP 3: Slip into an old T-shirt and gather your tools: hair-color kit, fitted rubber
gloves, butterfly hair clips (for easy hair release), a comb and an old towel.
• STEP 4: Part hair evenly down the center, then from ear to ear. Clip each
quadrant up.
• STEP 5: Put on plastic gloves, and prepare hair color solution following the
instructions on the box.
• STEP 6: Slip the towel underneath your work area to catch any drips of solution,
as permanent dyes may stain countertops.
• STEP 7: Trace along the parts in one quadrant as you gently squeeze your bottle
of coloring. Release clip and, keeping the tip of the bottle very close to your scalp,
stripe thinly spaced lines over entire area. Re-clip colored section.
• STEP 8: Continue until you've treated all four quadrants.
• STEP 9: Check the clock or set a timer. Knock five minutes off the suggested
treatment time and then relax with a book or magazine.
• STEP 10: Apply remaining solution to your entire head for the last five minutes
of your treatment. This will brighten the rest of your hair's color and make the
most even seam between regrowth and ends.
• STEP 11: Rinse as indicated.
