How do I stop my grey roots going red when I dye my hair mahogany?
The roots of your hair is virgin hair. That means that no chemicals have been put on the hair before. Next, the roots are close to your head where your body temperature is warmer. It makes your hair process faster, and even will be a lighter shade.There are two things you can do. 1. You can get the color you are using in the next darkest level, and only apply the color to the roots. You don't need to put it on your hair that you have already colored. If you keep putting it all over everytime your hair will be dry and damaged. If your color needs refreshed, put it all over for 5 minutes after coloring your new growth. We call this “running it through”. It means after your time on your roots has run out , you apply what color you have left on all the hair but only 5 minutes, no longer.2. You can also apply a light brown to your roots, leave it 15 minutes and then apply the red color that you like. It will keep your new growth from being another color. Don't rinse the light brown, just put your red over top the light brown. Use the correct time required by the company.Good luck to you. Im very happy you are trying to do it right.
My gums stopped bleeding, Why?
Hey, fellow New Yorker, your health is improving! Bleeding gums are a sign of disease - gingivitis, caused by bacteria in the tissue. It sets up inflammation, and the gums bleed as a result when brushed, flossed, or gently probed at the dentist's office. Your gums are not supposed to bleed when you clean your mouth, any more than your scalp is supposed to bleed when you wash your hair. So keep up the good work - whatever it is you are doing, don't stop - you have just resolved your gingivitis after 20 years (better late than never!). Not only is your oral health improved now, but there is a correlation between periodontal disease and coronary artery disease, due to the oral bacteria entering the bloodstream and getting to the heart. Your overall health is better now. So - celebrate! And as we say in Hindi, Mazel Tov!
How do I keep red hairdye from bleeding into blonde hair?
I've had red hair for almost a year now, but I just recently dyed some blonde into it, in a few hunks. I've done this before, and the red always bled into the blonde when I washed it, so the blonde turned pink. I covered my blonde in conditioner when I used to wash it, but that only worked half of the time. I use permanent red dye (L'oreal Feria Ruby Rush) so I'm not sure what else I could do.

How do I prevent hair dyed purple from fading?
No matter what you do, it will fade, because purple hair dyes are semi or demi-permanent, not completely permanent. That being said, there are ways to keep it from fading faster than your roots grow in. 1. Get a good brand of purple dye. Manic panic is made to fade quickly, other brands are made to fade less. Pravana, Punky Color, Arctic fox, and Special Effects make purple dyes that last MUCH longer. 2. Heat set your hair dye once it is applied. This helps it sit better in the hair shaft and stay longer.3. When you wash out the hair dye, use cold water, and only use color treated hair conditioner. After you first wash out the dye, avoid washing for a couple of days. 4. Add a spoonful or so of any left over dye to both your shampoo and conditioner. Make sure you are using sulfate free, designed for color treated hair shampoo and conditioner. When you use the conditioner with the dye mixed in, let it sit on your hair for 1-5 minutes. This will help "refresh" the color some every time you wash.5. Wash and rinse your hair in cold or tepid water. Hot water opens up the cuticle which will release more dye(color). Using cold water helps keep the cuticle closed and keep the color in.6. Avoid use of styling products and heat styling. Heat styling does the same thing hot water does. Many styling products contain alcohol, which will fade hair faster. 7. Try to avoid washing your hair every day, if you can skip a few days, even better. Dry shampoo is a good option on your non-wet shampoo days. 8. Wear a hat or hood when in direct sunlight. Yes, this can fade the color too. 9. Make sure your hair is healthy. Severely damaged or bleach-fried hair does not hold color near as well as fairly healthy hair. With this tips, you can probably prolong the color so that you only really need to refresh it every other month instead of monthly. Depending on your hair, it may even last months without fading. I've had purple last up to 6 months with minimal fading and no touch ups.

Does Mane n' Tail shampoo promote hair growth?
Well hair grow half an inch each month on its own. But what I would suggest it try using Mane N' Tail Horse Shampoo and Conditioner. I use it all the timeand it does aid in growing your hair faster. I'd say massage it into your scalp so it can get to your roots well this increases the blood flow helping it grow faster. When shampooing and conditioning you should use cold or luke warm water on your hair so it won't damage it. Even hot water hurts your hair.You can find it at walmart in the pet section. You should drink plenty of water to help condition your hair. Eating Coconut oil also has benifits its not only good for adding nutrients to the hair, but its also good for weight loss and has many more benifits. And don't forget about exercising, as much as I hate it, it actually helps by increasing the blood flow and stimulating the hair to grow faster. Hope I helped!
