Color Your Hair Extensions

An easy way to add length and volume to your hair and change your look is to use hair extensions. A lot of women are opting to get hair extensions to improve their looks. Hair extensions though, can be very expensive especially if done in salons. The colors available are also limited but the good news is that you can color your hair extensions safely.

If you want to color your hair extensions, make sure that you buy only those that are made from natural hair. Synthetic hair cannot be dyed as it is made from nylon or polyester. Human hair can be dyed pretty much the same way you dye your own hair, which means that the process is not only similar, but that you can also use different types of hair color for dyeing.  

If you buy a box of color from a drugstore,  A box of color will already include a developer, applicator bottle and a pair of gloves for protection.

1.     You may have some experience in dyeing your hair, but you still need to test a strand of the hair extension before you start the dye job. This is because the hair used in the extension may react differently. Take a small group of strands of the hair extension and clip it to separate it from the rest of hair. Mix half a spoon of dye and half a spoon of developer application and apply the mixture with gloves on. Wait for some time as specified in the instructions that come with the bottle and rinse the hair to see the effect.

2.     Before you start to color your hair extension, Before you color your hair, comb and untangle it. Pay particular importance to this because even a small tangle will result in uneven coloring of that portion of the hair extension and will look odd when you wear it. Also make sure there are no styling products on to the hair extension before coloring it. Shampoo the hair extension to remove styling products (if any) and let it dry on a towel. Use an old towel, as this one is going to get stained when you are through.

3.     Apply color evenly to each strand. After you've applied the hair color, put it on top of a towel and let it dry. Refer to the coloring box for instructions on how long you should wait before you rinse out.

4.     Use warm water and rinse thoroughly to remove the hair color. Apply conditioner and let it remain for three minutes before you rinse again. A conditioner is usually included in a coloring box.

5.     Use a wide-toothed comb to gently untangle the extension while it is still wet.
