Since most green hair color requires you to bleach your hair, it’s important to protect your hair health before you get it done. If you start out with healthy, moisturized hair, your hair color will last a lot longer.
Emerald green, turquoise, and hunter green are all deep shades that look beautiful.
Color-depositing products add a small amount of dye to your hair to freshen up the color. You can find them at most beauty supply stores. Try to only use a color-depositing product once every 2 weeks to avoid changing your hair color too much.
Your hair may feel dry after you dye it as well. Giving it time before you wash it will help it to recover and replenish some moisture.
You can train your hair to go longer without shampoo by sticking to a wash day schedule. Within a month or two, your scalp will adjust to the new routine and stop producing as much oil.
If you don’t want to cover your entire body in cold water, try washing your hair in the sink or tub before you turn the shower on.
You can find products like these at most beauty supply stores. Avoid clarifying shampoos because they tend to strip color and natural oils from hair.
You can also use a deep conditioner once a week for extra moisture. Look for ingredients like Argan oil, coconut oil, and avocado oil.
Avoid products with alcohol in them, as alcohol dries out your hair as well. Look for products that have natural, non-toxic ingredients.
Scrubbing at your hair with a towel can damage it and make the ends look more dry. If you don’t have a microfiber towel, you can also use an old T-shirt to dry your hair.
You can find heat protectant sprays at most beauty supply stores.
Chlorine can also mess with the shade of your green hair if it sits on your hair for too long.
You can find UV protectant sprays for your hair at most beauty supply stores. Try bringing a large umbrella with you when you’re at the beach or a park.
If your hair grows quickly, you may need to get a trim more often. Talk to your hairstylist about the right schedule for you.
