How do I color my hair using a protein filler??

Question

Hi,

I just bought Wella color charm hair color and protein filler. I had blonde hair with highlights and colored it a red color and after about a week about the first 2 or 3 inches from my scalp is still a redish color but the rest is now brown. I read that using a protein filler first will make it so the color is even throught. The directions on the filler say to leave it on for 20 minutes than rinse out. Do I have to let my hair dry before I color it or do I do it when it is still wet?? Thanks for the help.

Answer 1

I prefer to let my hair dry first because the color seems to last longer.

Answer 2

It's okay, however I would only touch up the new growth and then pull threw ends about five minutes before rinsing. Protein is very good for your hair it keeps it strong, but over lapping any color will put strain on the hair, doing it this way gets rid of your new growth and five minutes on the ends will be enough to freshen them up without causing damage.

FIRST....... WASH YOUR HAIR REALLY GOOD WITH A CLARIFYING SHAMPOO AND CON. THEN PUT THE FILLER IN YOUR HAIR LEAVE IT IN FOR 15-20 MINUTES.......... RINSE THEN GET OUT OF THE SHOWER BLOT WITH A TOWEL BUT DON'T RUB AND LET DRY............ THEN YOU CAN CONTINUE TO DYE HAIR LIKE USUAL.
