If you’re looking to achieve quality results at home, first, you need to select the right colouring kit, and preferably one that is easy to use, dries within around 15 minutes and gives good dense colouring, which will often last for up to 21 washes! That’s the sign of a quality product, so always check how many washes will the colour withstand. Although it’s true that you have to also allow for the usual ‘wear and tear’ and exposure to sunlight. We know how easy it is to be overwhelmed by the many hair colouring products that are on offer in your pharmacy, chemists, and supermarket so to find the right colour you should match your hair to the switch panels on the side of the box and do not go more than 2 shades lighter or darker.

If you’re looking to enhance your base colour and cover just a few greys then you’re best to choose non-permanent colouring. If you want longer lasting results then choose permanent but be sure to read all the Instructions before you start.
