Does your hair color fade within days after you have hair color? You’re not alone…most hair color fades about 20% with the first shampoo. Look at the following “reminders” to help keep your color looking radiant and healthy, everyday of the month

Natural hair colorants such as the plant powders Henna, Indigo, Cassia, and Amla (click on each to read more about it) can safely be used to enhance or change your hair color. They are plant powders that are mixed with lemon juice, water, and/or yogurt, in your own home, to make a paste that is applied to your hair and scalp.

Will the color look harsh on me? If you choose a hair color that is natural looking, it will not look harsh on you. For example: If you are young, and want to enhance your own hair color. Your stylist will choose a color very similar to what you already have. Younger people can get away with more drastic changes in their hair color because they generally have vibrant skin tones. Although, if a young person chooses a black color for instance, and their hair color is not naturally black, this can sometimes be very harsh looking on them also .

The most common problem seen with hair coloring at home and in salons is choosing a color that is too light for the natural shade of your locks. Realistically, color can only lighten hair beautifully by a few shades. If you go any lighter than a few shades, you need to choose a high-lift product such as bleach or a professional highlighting system. Failure to do this often results in hair color that is much too brassy or even orange.

Hair consists of a shaft, which we see, and its root, which is below the skin in a follicle (little pit). The shaft is dead. The living part is the follicle and the few cells just emerging from it at the base of the shaft. This is how the hair grows, by cells at its base subdividing, pushing upwards, hardening and developing pigment. Typically, each of our hairs grows at about ½ inch per month and lives anywhere from 3 to 5 years .

Celebrities love Artec color depositing shampoos! These banish brassiness and keep their hair color looking fresh! Drew Barrymore told Allure magazine: “The best color shampoos I’ve discovered lately are the ones called ARTec. I use half Sunflower, half Walnut. Gorgeous. It comes out like a bronzy caramel chestnut.” Jenna Elfman has changed her blonde hair to red with ARTec’ Strawberry Color Depositing Shampoo.

Selecting the best shade or highlights depends on various factors. It completely depends on facial shape, complexion, haircut, facial expression, eye color, hair length, as well as personal taste. These colors can be various shades and intensity. Depending on intensity or tone colors can be warm or cool. Warm tones are shades of oranges, reds and yellows and cool tones are shades of blues, violets and greens. People who are cool should not use warm tones because that might lower down their features. The best shades for cool people are purple orchid hues, burgundy and lipstick red. People who are warm by nature should preferably use simple gold highlights and golden blondes. Cool tones suit the people with olive complexion and a medium complexion with no pink to a faint pink at the cheeks .

The indigo mixed in this video is for hair dye ONLY and not skin application. Indigo has a strong smell when mixed. To purchase pesticide free Indigo visit www.freehandmehndi.com When using indigo in your henna mixture, for brown hair use 2 parts henna and 1 part indigo. For dark brown, almost black use 2 parts indigo and 1 part henna. Indigo is often resold as black henna in the retail market. Indigo is not black henna, and I strongly caution against using any product labeled as black henna, even if you think it might be indigo. Got questions?

You might like your very own natural hair but many a time you might feel the need to change the color of your hair or your hair style temporarily. Hair color can damage your hair. You might have used hair extensions in the past but now with the advent of the lace wig it has turned out to be very popular. If you have already been wearing weaves you will be well aware that they can thin out your hairline. And unlike the weaves that do not let you tie a pony tail and clip it to the back of the head, the full lace wig lets you do that while the lace front wig lets you wear a low pony tail at the back.

Many a time you might have taken a look at the top celebrities like Tyra, Oprah Winfrey and Beyonce and wondered how their hair always looked so good. Perhaps their hair was of really good quality. Or maybe their hair stylist did a great job of their hair. Now the secret is out; we all know that they used a lace front wig each time they needed to sport a new hairstyle or a new look at such short notice. Now you can have your dream about having gorgeous hair come true. After looking around a bit, you should know how to choose, use and maintain your lace wig so that it lasts long.

The lace front wig is the most realistic type of hair wig or hairpiece that is available in the market today. In the olden days one had to pay a big price to get a custom fitted lace wig and hence this style was affordable only by celebrities. But now it can be afforded by the common woman and is a lot cheaper than what a new weave would cost. And because the lace wig can be worn for as many as two years or more if worn not so often and if worn everyday could last for as long as six months, you can see that it is a good investment  after all. The human hair wigs are made from human hair which is sewn into a lace cap matching your scalp so that the wig goes unnoticed when worn.

The main feature of the lace wig is its hairline and the roots which when parted make it appear as if the hair is coming right out of the scalp. This effect is obtained because each hair is sewn by hand into the lace cap. The lace front wig normally has a base that is either made from thin skin or polyurethane or lace. The lace bases are very delicate but they also permit the skin to breathe. Lux Illusion, French lace and Swiss lace are some of the wig bases that are used in the in stock lace wigs. An exclusive triple knot method is used in the Lux Illusion; here the knot is not visible and makes it appear as if the hair is coming right out of your scalp. French lace makes use of bigger squares and the material is slightly thicker.

Then you have the Swiss lace which is thinner as compared to the French lace and has squares which are smaller. For active lifestyles the lace wig of the French and Swiss type are both good but the French lace front wig is said to be more popular.
