We hope you’ve found your favorite red balayage color on this list! You might already be raring to dye your hair after seeing all those awesome ideas. But before you dye your hair, there are a few things you have to take into consideration prior to jumping into the wonderful world of Balayage hair. One of them is to take into consideration the health of your hair. If you have dry and brittle ends, it might be wise to ask for a trim prior to having your hair colored so that you are sure to have evenly colored hair. A clarifying shampoo would also be necessary BEFORE going to your colorist to ensure that your hair is free from whatever build-up it has accumulated over time. Lastly, always bring a photo of the type of hair color that you want because it would make it easier for your colorist to determine which products to use.

Now that you have armed yourself with that information, you should learn how to take care of your newly-dyed hair. Red hair is harder to maintain than other colors because it fades quite fast. You have to be ready to take the necessary measure in order to protect your mane. One of them is to wait at least 48 hours before washing your hair. This ensures that the color molecules have penetrated your hair deeply before you wash them out. And when you do wash your hair, make sure to use cool water instead of hot, and to use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner. And speaking of shampoo and conditioner, you will now have to switch to shampoo and conditioner for colored hair so that you don’t unnecessarily strip your hair of its new color.

There are a lot more, but these are just the basics. This might sound overwhelming, but it really is very simple.  Once you get used to it, you won’t even mind it anymore!
