I’m so tired of spending over $200 at a salon just to dye my roots. I’m back to wanting to do my own hair at home.

A helpful tip from a stylist- most box dyes come with 40 volume developer, which will give maximum lift which could give you hot roots, you’re only gonna need 40 volume if you have a dark natural root and you’re trying to get a much lighter and brighter colour. try to look for a box dye with 20 volume developer, or even 10 if you’re putting a darker colour than your natural. Ladies with grey stick with 20 volume for maximum grey coverage!

Doing my hair is not the issue ....cleaning the dye off my shower floor is. 😞

Love the trash can. I regularly just use some shorts n a shirt set apart for only when I die my hair. I have being using the same chlothes for 20 years n just rewash it .

I did this two weeks ago. I used to dye it often and quit for 10 years. Everyone was thrilled with my hair color. It's easy to do but it takes some time, especially if u r already grey.

I've been coloring my hair at home for years. All of the hairdressers I've seen during that time have said what a great job I do. Yes, even me. You can do it too!

I never understand these tutorials when the questions on here aren’t even answered 🤔

[airricoutdoors]

Nice and honest and straight to the point! Good video, thanks!

[jessp]

I seem to use the rest of the dye all over my hair. I can’t seem to just only do the roots.

And for whatever reason, no matter how thorough and careful I am, I always seem to miss small areas. 😢 Ha 🤷🏻‍♀️

Oh my God you took a trash bag and turn it into a dress that is something that Lady Gaga would do but it looks so cute on you

[sunflowerbaby]

Love the toothbrush tip. I'm definitely going to do that. Question - Why do you rinse in cold water?

[yoseminister]

I tried to help my mom but she did it her own way and now she bald

[likeastarinyourheart]

Wow. Your video inspired. Thanks for making easy. I am going to get some products for doing myself but I need some recommendations about what if you want to " kill the Cooper color" from an old color?😳 I don't want to look like a Chipmunk...

It tuned out very nice. I have been doing my own hair for 15 years. All roots are gray. I never use an application bottle. I feel there is more control with a brush. I did like her tip about using a toothbrush to do the hairline.

I got my first grey hair at 17. Now my son is 17 and is also going grey and balding. It's sad. I am 41 now and am completely white. Completely... I have always dyed my own hair. If I don't keep the dye in for at least 35 mins it doesn't cover it

[marckemp]

Someone asks, "What's wrong with coloring hair?" Nothing. Nothing is wrong with it. But on a man who's starting to grey I have a double standard. I wouldn't color it a darker than normal color. I used to do mine in the winter when I'd grow it out. But someone mixed up the chemicals and all the lighter colors were just as dark as the darkest. Their quality control was terrible. So that last time was the last time. Now I never color it. I just keep it cut off. Some guys prefer to just shave their heads. I just do a no guard all over. So yeah there's that double standard for men..I admit it. I'm not sure why they're asking irrelevant questions. It's like do I like honey nut Cheerios or Rice Krispies. Both. But who cares, I'm not making a religion out of it.

[magicmoe]

Wait.. Why not shake it before breaking the top @1:50? Sorry pointless question 😋

[ceciliawhite]

I made my 17 year old son help . He was not happy . I pulled the I'm your mom do what I say card lol
