I always used to hate choosing a hair colour in a drug store, there was so many different makes, so many different colour numbers printed on the box, I never knew what the different was, and just used to pick one and hope for the best.
Fast forward a few years and I now understand, after asking my hair dresser what the different numbers symbolise..
First, the numbers range from 1 to 10, for example, 5
The first number (the 5) stands for the death of the colour you want,
The general rule is the higher the number the lighter the colour.
Number 10 - Very light blonde
Number 9 - Light blonde
Number 8 - Blonde
Number 7 - Dark blonde
Number 6 - Light brown
Number 5 - Brown
Number 4 - Dark brown
Number 3 - Darkest brown
Number 2 - Black brown
Number 1 - Black
I usually find that it helps to go one shade lighter than you would like your hair, they usually come out a little darker than you anticipated in the first place.
I generally change my hair colour very often, I get bored so easily. I think the longest hair colour I have stayed is red, I felt it always looked so nice in my hair, I experimented a lot with different hair colours, but the best one I found for me was Vidal Sassoon - Dark intense red. I've just changed my hair back to brown, but I'm not loving the colour i've got on at the moment, so i'm sure I will change it in the next couple of weeks.
What are the best hair colourants you have tried?
