How To Apply And Maintain Dye On Natural Or Relaxed Hair

If you love hair colors that are harmless then this post is for you!







Henna: Henna leaf is popular among the Indians and Hausas from Northern Nigeria. It's used to paint nails or draw beautiful Laali designs on legs and arms.

 It can also serve as dye for hair, YES you heard right. Henna can be used as hair dye and it is good for people who don't want any kind of chemical on their hair for fear of hair loss. It's benefits are numerous; it removes dandruffs, serves as conditioner, strengthens and prevents breakage, boosts hair growth etc. When blended it is just like the greenish powder image attached and can be bought from the market where you get your blended herbal produce like alligator pepper etc



How to apply Henna to dye hair


1.Get already blended henna(powder) and mix in warm water alone or include boiled green tea, honey or coconut milk for better result.


2. Leave mixture in covered bowl to develop for as long as 10 hours or leave overnight, it should have turned a clayish colored thick paste by morning.


3.Ensure to stir properly to avoid lumpiness then apply to hair.


4. Wear cloths you can easily dispose of if it gets stained, apply edges with Vaseline to avoid color from running to your skin.


5. Spread henna paste on areas you want color and wrap hair in plastic (nylon, silk scarf or anything that you can easily discard) for up to 2hours to get it to evenly penetrate hair before washing with shampoo.


6. You'd need lots of water because it gets kind of flaky but with honey added just before application on hair it helps it wash off with ease, I remember when I used henna and I almost died from broken arms and waist LOL. I always do these things myself because most stylists are ignorant. You won't notice color immediately, it takes about a week depending on hair type but you'd get a reddish glow in the sun and light. 

If you want to dye hair in color order than red then henna isn't for you because red/black is the only color it produces. But just before you use that permanent dye then first test hair with semi-permanent dyes to see how your hair will fair before you apply the permanent. It's important to always keep hair moisturized and leave in conditioners are your best bet. Cantu is great but I use dark and lovely. 


Permanent dye: Go to a professional if you're not patient like I am or enjoy the entire process of nurturing like I do. I applied my current dye myself and if you read up the process manual attached to the pack, you should it just right.
To do after application

1. Deep condition after a week of applying dye to avoid split ends.


2. Chemically dyed hair is susceptible to split ends. Trim tip of hair by no more than 1/16-1/8th of an inch every 3 months or less so they don't break to the root of hair.


3. I would advise that you only dye tip of hair like I always do. That way you're sure that your edges are protected, when I had relaxed hair I used to apply dye In all sections of my hair but that didn't work out very well for me but then I knew nothing about hair care.


4.To retain hair color, you may need to reapply every 6months or once you notice color starts to fade. I did mine again last week and picture was taken next day. I used clairol textures and tones(cost N1800 a pack) after so many years of using Creme of Nature.

5.If you don't want to dye your hair, please use henna as a wash and set conditioner. Only thing is you won't need to leave it overnight or for hours as long as you would when you want to use as dye. Your hair would thank you for it and results are bouncy, thick, and dandruff free hair.


Anyway, find what works for your hair and stick to it. Natural hair isn't for everyone and you can have a healthy relaxed hair once you know what works.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Stop applying relaxer, the relaxed hair would naturally start to fall off and then you trim the split ends often until you completely get rid of the relaxed bit. In one year, your hair should be completely natural. Make deep conditioning your friend, stay off heat, do protective styling like braids, crochet etc It worked for my sister and friend.

    2. Doppelganger, abeg my issue is declining hairline. My front hair is nothing to write home about. Help my hair ministry biko.

    3. Adenike, reduce the number of times you braid youe hair if you do that often or avoid hair styles that requires tightening your edges. Apply shea butter in those scanty areas and give it time.

      Delete
    4. For edges, blend onino, squeeze out the juice and add oilve or cocnut oil or honey...

    5. Doppelganger please I have a lot of greys...and flaky scalp. How do I deal?

      Delete
    6. Anon 16:11, if your scalp is flaky it's because it's dry. Massage flaky areas with coconut oil or shea butter. You can also buy amla oil. Coconut oil also helps with grey hair. Include vitamin B12 foods into your diet, eggs, tuna etc

I have kukuma hands up to faith that let it kukuma fall of patapata till I have no more hair. I am tired. Thanks dopple, but if I am through with this I dye no more.

    1. Keep hair moisturized dear, dye gets your hair dry and if you don't deep condition and moisturize often your hair would dry up, split and fall off. It's like eating all day and not drinking water.

  10. Barracudianusaurusunamon - Hi, guys. It's me again. ( :

    Awwn, Doppelganger is really beautiful, but, hey, I didn't quite catch this, is the dye for the hair or her cleavage, I seem to be seeing a lot here, LOL.

    Just kidding, going natural is cool and life-preservative, nothing beats good old natural greens and its products. Thanks, this post was educative and very informative.

    Cheers.

  23. Doppel, your hair is beautiful, pls the natural hair tips that you talked about in your last post, can they be used for a small girl of five? she has this thick full hair that makes her cry whenever I'm combing it. I use scented shea butter but it's not doing enough.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Thanks dear, yes they can be used. She is a little girl, be gentle and patient. Keep applying shea butter and wash her hair with honey. Try not to comb her hair when it's dry, you can sprinkle water just before you comb.

      Delete
    2. For kids if you can find beautiful beginning detangler. I don't know if it's sold here but my friend uses it for her daughter.
      Or get a spritzer,mix water,a leave in conditioner and little coconut oil and spray on the hair before combing.

      Delete
    3. Thanks Dopel and Beds&roses
      I will search that detangler in shoprite. Will also try other things recommended.

      Delete
  24. Asides Creme of Nature and Dark and lovely I fear other hair dye.
    One stylist used one dye for me claiming its temporary and it will wash off after few washes.
    My hair chopped with that thing. I regretted myself. But I treated my hair with syntonics and kerra-care for a year,avoiding heat,fixing everything. My hair is now back.
    Since then anything dye I run. Though they are good dyes out there. But let me be managing my black hair like that and admire others like this one.
