I have never dyed my hair before. Is this one easy-ish to use for beginners?

Yes if it is Hydrience but it isn't being made any longer. I still buy it if I can find on internet. You can write to Clairol and they can tell you what you can use in its place. I'm a natural blonde (dirty blonde) and I use it only to cover what little grey I can see. If you can find it on the Internet make sure the contents are ok not old.

You can't dye this hair.. It will NOT take.It's synthetic....You'll just waste your dye, and time.

My dye wasn't bad/oxidized. I had a great experience with this hair color. First time buyer.

You will need to bleach it, which is included in the kit, but after that it will still fade within the firts few washes, leaving you with colored roots and just bleached out hair. The product isn't worth it, I'd try special effects hair dye or sallys pravanna dye.

It turned my hair platinum blonde within 20 minutes. I had light brown hair to start with. I used a 40% developer with it.

Well that depends on how light your trying to go. If u just want some lift to a brown/light brown you can just use any 20 vol developer with this bleach up to 30-45 mins. Then apply the color ur going for. Otherwise if your trying to be really blonde and you have NEVER dye your hair before then use 30 vol instead you'll get a lighter result instantly. I do not suggest dying your hair more than once per day just becuz you want to be lighter and didn't achieve it the first time. Going from black to a much lighter color is a process and it may take more than once of dying. Btw I'm a license profession I hope this helps Well that depends on how light your trying to go.

The trickiest part, I think, is just trying to section your hair so you color just the roots and not the ends. If you can do that, you'll be fine. I've used this kit a handful of times now and the only thing I did once was get a bit darker ends than I wanted, but it was because the hair was short in that section. The colors come our very luminous, which I love.

I have been using it for about a year. Since it contains no sulphates or other harsh chemicals, it does not affect dyed hair. I've found it leaves my dyed hair very shiny, soft and easy to style. You do have to use it per instructions for best results.

I have platinum blonde hair and this is the toner that I use. I have to bleach my hair before I use this though so I would reccommend bleaching first and then using toner. I have to strip my hair pretty well before I use toner and if your hair has too much of a yellow tint then definitely bleach first otherwise you will probably have just a lighter gold/yellow as a result.

i usually just go with the set thats for my hair type i tried the starter set this time and should have stayed with one for color treated hair just worked much better for my hair. hope this helps and didnt confuse you.

I'd go with the blond. My hair is grayish; what brows I have left are sort of dark and bristly! but the lighter of the two "blond" powders--they are more two shades of light brown--seems to work well, blending in with what sparse rows I have left! I'm no makeup expert, but I found this product easy to use. The brushes are short, to fit in the little case, but the stiff, angled one does the job as an applicator and the other one blends in the stabilizing gel. I use a magnifying mirror if I really want to get it right, but I can also just whip some color in place and go.

I was able to color it with a bleach lightener. The color came out pretty good. I received lots of compliments and not one knew I was wearing a lace top. I did not experience any tangles or shedding. Treat this as if if were you own hair and you should be fine. I've ordered it twice and both pieces were the same and the quality is very nice for the price. Hope this helps

NOOOOOOOO. Do nottt bleach your hair first. Apply over.What color do you want? My hair was about 4 colors when I last did mine. So I could tell you how it reacted with each.

That's exactly why I use it - for my color treated hair. My hair dresser recommended about 4 years ago and I've been using ever since. I really like it although you won't get a lot of lather with it. But it will never change or fade the color of your hair - or at least that been my experience. And if you need a conditioner the Dermorganic Intensive Hair Repair Masque with Argan Oil for Unisex is the one I use. It's amazing - your hair will feel like silk. I have curly hair so it can be quite dry - these 2 products are a staple in my hair care.

I have never read anywhere in the instructions that hair color mattered. My hair is colored as well and it still worked fantastico. If your hair is curly and you want it straighter, less frizz and manageable, this product works miracles.

I' m not sure you should ask a professional my hair doesn't color easily but this colored it in 45 minutes but it didn't last long it faded sooo fast in less than 2 months after 4 months it was orange I colored it with manic panic pillar box red applied it on my hair and left it in for 12 hours the red came back vibrant and gorgeous but the roots needed touching up my hair is soooo damaged from the lo real hi color hi lights it's been a year since the last time i dyed my hair red my hair is still weak and brittle with a whole lot of split ends I cut my hair twice the past year but the split ends keep coming back if you still want to give it a try don't forget to keep your hair conditioned and protect it from heating tools hope this helped :)

I am a non- professional and I did it to myself.. You can do it but it is a long process and time consuming. It took me 4 hours or more but my hair is very thick and long.. So I recommend let someone help you for the first time and follow the instructions exactly. And you will like it..
