Wash hair before getting it dyed?

Question

Tomorrow I am getting my hair dyed and I usually wash my hair every 2-3 days.. The last time I washed it was Tuesday night so would it be safe to wash it tonight ? Or will it be too clean? I know it is good to have natural oils in the hair when you go to dye it..
Also if I wash it I want to do a deep conditioning treatment (you know the kind that you let sit in the hair and rinse out) just so it is healthy since the dye does damage it. Do you think this is ok ? I just want to get the best possible result tomorrow !
Suggestions.
Thanks :)

I think I am going to go black because my hair is already almost black but with some red in it so I just want a change !

Answer 1

Call the place where you're having the dye job done and ask. The beautician would know the right thing to do. Some like you to wash your hair ahead of time, some will do it right there. You want clean hair before getting it dyed or treated in any other manner. Do not use conditioners. They really don't do anything for your hair except to coat it with a waxy substance.

Answer 2

Don't wash it, you should actually wash it tonight and put nothing in it, on the back of color boxes, it says just make sure your hair don't have build up in it, and says don't wash it. Deep condition until after the coloring.

Answer 3

Don't wash it tonight. Let the stylist wash it tomorrorw to take out the color. Your better off doing the conditioning treatment after the color. its better that way

Answer 4

Answer 5
