How to Dye Your Hair Red: new "Liese" Cassis Berry color

How to Dye Your Hair Red: Everything You Need to Know About Red Hair....

I have dyed my hair red yesterday, thanks to ss that I did not choose the stupid ash brown which she said "aiyo you will look so old" and thanks to Hx I have chosen a brighter shade of red for my hair dye..."The color will look darker then the one you choose", she emphasized. Else I guess the color I choose will never be able to produce such good effect...

I bought the new "Liese" Cassis Berry color (made in Japan)...also known as the Liese Bubble Hair color from Kao....real fun to dye my hair with...just follow the instruction inside and make sure you don't shake the mixture too much and its as easy as shown in the advertisements...real cool...

So a new look and a new hair cut =)

Da was arguing with me regarding leaving the hair dye longer like 2 times the time stated and I was thinking that should not be the way...

How to Dye your Hair Red: The Precautions

  1. Wear gloves. (You must put on gloves at all times while applying the hair dye. The hair dye will definitely damage your skin if you are not careful)
  2. Don't leave dye on for longer than instructed. (some people think leave on longer the better, that's not true)
  3. Rinse your scalp thoroughly with water after use. (make sure all the chemical that you have applied on your hair has been washed off)
  4. Never mix different hair dye products. (you don't know what kind of chemical effects the different products will have, just to play safe...never mix them...)
  5. Do an allergy test each time you color your hair.
  6. Never dye your eyebrows or eyelashes. This may lead to infection and even blindness. The FDA bans the use of hair dyes for eyelashes and eyebrow tinting.


The point I want to point out is that it does not mean you leave the hair color on the longer the better or brighter the color will be...

You can have a look at http://www.glamouredited.com for more information.

And just as a precaution on how to maintain hair color (it doesn't have to be red, works for all...), some of the guidelines to keeping it as if you have just dyed your hair red:

  1. Use a shampoo formulated to enhance red hair. It will contain fewer detergent ingredients and provide more moisture.
  2. Shampoo with cool water. Hot water fades color. (OMG thats really gonna be a pain...)
  3. Condition every time you wash. Select a red-enhancing conditioner. (there are conditioner out there that are for color hair get those...)
  4. If you hair isn’t too oily, try a leave-in conditioner, which helps protect hair. (this really keeps your hair healthy and smooth especially after a torturing hair dye session...)
  5. Apply a deep-conditioning treatment or hydrating mask once a week.
  6. Minimize exposure to sunlight and chlorinated water, which contribute to fading. (meaning no swimming especially...)
