Did you know these hair colour myths are completely untrue?

We've all been at that stage where we have dreamt of getting our hair coloured but we're forced not to because we keep thinking about its side effects. There are quite a few hair colour myths that are floating around out there and let us tell you they're not true at all. So all you need to do is stop believing in these myths and go get that hair colour you always wanted.


1. Wash your hair before going to the salon

Its said that the hair colour is unable to cast its effect on unwashed hair since it tends to get oily, but this is completely untrue. On the contrary, the natural oils in your hair protect it from damage.


2. Wash your hair immediately after colouring it

Again this is just a myth and it is not recommendable to wash your hair soon after colouring it. You need to allow the colour to settle in for at least 24-48 hours. Washing it can remove the colour and tone of your hair.


3. Hair colouring destroys hair completely

This is not entirely untrue. Colouring your hair opens the hair cuticle for it to deposit inside which definitely damages your hair a little but the damage is not irreversible. Oil massages and hair spas go a long way. Also, you can deep condition to keep your hair soft.
