Every hairdresser has received a frantic SOS call from someone like this. "Self-color" is something you should just say NO to. When people try to stretch the time between salon visits and color their hair at home, they often damage their hair and do not get the results they are looking for. Typically, the end result is  an appointment  for corrective color. Chemical processes like coloring, perming, and straightening change the structure of the hair. When a professional stylist colors your hair, there is a plan, to give you a perfect end result and maintain the integrity of your hair. A professional stylist is required to know the hairs chemistry and what your hair can handle.
