How to Retouch Hair Color

If you have hair coloring in your hair eventually it will start to fade as your hair grows. Instead of walking around with different shades of color in your hair it is recommended that it be retouched as soon as possible.

Retouching the color in your hair is not something that you have to go to the hair salon to get done because you can easily do it yourself at home by following a few simple steps. 



  1. Part your hair into four even sections. Use a hair clip to secure each section so that you do not have any pieces of hair dangling.

  2. Put on a pair of plastic gloves and prepare the dye as instructed in the hair coloring kit.

  3. Take the clip off of one section of your hair.

  4. Use a comb to part off a thin section of the hair.

  5. Apply a thin line of hair coloring along the area of new growth in your hair.

  6. Use your fingers to massage the coloring into the new growth of your hair. Make sure you keep the plastic gloves on to protect your hands from being stained with the coloring.

  7. Continue to part the hair in small pieces and adding the coloring to the roots until you complete the section. When you are finished with the first section clip the hair back up and move on to the next section.

  8. Following the instructions on the hair coloring kit for the amount of time to leave the coloring on your hair.

  9. Rinse the coloring from your hair after the time has lapsed.
