I would get my hair done in a salon only because I dont trust myself when it comes to things like that with my hair. The people in the salon are the experts on hair, but i do know many people who dye their own hair without a problem. so its really up you and what you're comfortable with

I get my hair done at my grandma's salon cuz she dyes my hair for free. =D I don't suggest dying it yourself cuz I tried to dye my hair black and it turned out blue...the brand was Revlon if you wanted to know. But my one friend uses this stuff from Hot Topic and it works for her...but I think you should go to a salon.

doing it at home is def less expensive but things can go terribly wrong. i would advise to go to a salon because my mom goes to a salon to get her hair done and she is always satisfied. wink.gif

I'll move this to fashion..because like hair and makeups been going there recently.

But if you still wondering what kind of color to use, try this brand..I think it's called Carol or something, it's a 30 day wash out color and then you can get an idea of what you want.

But I wouldn't take a chance for the first time, and just get it professionally done. It's more expensive that way though.

thats exactly like me. i don't trust myself doing at home...i always get it done at the salon. _smile.gif but it all depends what you're comfortable with, and how much money you're willing to spend.

i died my hair like 2 weeks ago. and it was the do it yourself kind. it turned out great.


but only lasted about 2 weeks. it's basicly gone now.

so i'm not sure maybe it was just the brand.


L'Orea sucks.

i do mine every month or so, and its cheaper to do it yourself. it isnt to hard. for natural colors loreal paris is a good brand, easy to use and not too expensive. the only thing you have to remember when you dye at home is to make sure you get your whole head if you're doing it all over, make sure you dont miss spots cause thats easy to do.

I have a lot of experience dying (and destroying pinch.gif ) my hair, and I think the brand of at home color that worked best and left my hair feeling the healthiest was feria, by loreal. I've gotten my hair done countless times in a salon as well, and unless you are willing to pay for it, a good dye job is cheaper at home. I did a hair modeling show, and the only time my hair was ever done really well was by those people, they work for farouk systems, the brand that makes chi irons, and that was the best hair color job I ever had. Since I was a model it was free, so I asked the chik how much it would be, she said she would charge 300$ in her salon. so yeah.
