Is it safe to dye it ? I want to have it in a darker color closer to my own natural hair color.

Yes.I colored the base 7 ash because that is my natural color.it worked very well. I even put in a few highlights.but to lift the color lighter is very risky.

Yes I did exactly that. I have red hair and it is impossible to find the right shade online. I buy the light blondes in human hair and dye them. It took the color beautifully!

I used this color at a salon, and to getthe deep purple I wanted They needed to lift some of my natural color first. (I have dark brown hair) Now it looks amazing, but its a dark purple.

Since it's red, it will fade quickly. Red always does fade fast no matter if you use a color protection shampoo or any other sort of color treatment/protection hair color. I always shampoo and rinse with cold water to help prevent fading, and the upkeep is ridiculous because of how fast it fades. I used this protect when I had dark brown hair, and had to dye it twice to achieve the shade of red that I wanted.. So perhaps dyeing it on black hair may not be a good idea, and I definitely would not bleach your hair beforehand considering this lightens before the dye sticks. Hope this helps!

I dont think that is a good idea on this hair because its synthetic and the hair quality is horriable my suggestion go to your local beauty supply and buy human hair that you can dye and reuse the hair over and over

I would suggest darkening your hair a bit before you use this henna. When I did mine, my roots were dark and the rest a medium blonde. The dark parts, my roots, turned the nice burgundy but the lighter sections turned orange like regular henna does.

...Good morning, Mary, how are you doing today? I would like to answer your question well, but I really don't know about that, because I have never used any red color mix for my hair...maybe you can mix some red with the dark blonde and you would obtain some red shadow...at least you can try it for the first time and see what happens...I think it would be a nice option for your...sincerely, Nidia.

I used to be hairstylist, my advice is not to color it itself especially if u want it lighter like highlights it will most likely not come out the color you want it. However if you really want to color it you would have to bleach the pieces that u want highlighted and then tone the bleached hair to take the yellow tone out. It you could just buy a toner ( blue base to take orange/ red tone out or a purple base toner to take the yellow out). It's hard to do and it might not come out how you like it. Best thing is to take it to a hairstylist or buy a piece that comes in the color you want.

I dyed my hair the day before to a dark brown shade as I had a really red color on my hair and it had grown out with gray roots so it was tacky. I left the Frost and Glow on 60 minutes and it's fine. I went and had my ends trimmed and the beautician actually complimented me on the job I did.

When I had it done my hair dresser it did not cover the grey at my roots so we covered it with black. The rest of my hair was covered with that Great color Violet, just love that color!

My hair was extremely damaged when I started using the henna dye. Honestly, I think it will be true to the color.. my hair is just incapable of holding the color. When I used it, it came out a reddish brown but not orange at all. I'm still working on getting healthier hair to see if it gives me more vibrant results, but it wasn't near as bright as I expected.

I personally have tried to change *even ever so slightly* the color of my synthetic wigs, but have not found a fail-proof way of doing so. I tried the rubbing alcohol and shaprie trick, but that only lightly tinted the fibers of the lightest wig i had. This one I tried to make darker, no success. Though I should say I LOOOOOOOVE the deep wine color this piece has in person(: hope I helped

On my friend (bleached to dirty blonde from dark brown) it turned (in ~1.5h) nice medium-dark blue-purple. She likes it :)

I'm sure your hair will go back to its natural color. I use this about once a week and since I'm allergic to every other dye, rinse, etc on the market, this is the only hair color I can use. I love it. I am a natural brunette in the old days and this product is great. It adds a lot of highlights to my hair and turns a lot of my gray blond making me look a whole lot younger.

It's very messy. It stains instantly. And yeah food color based dyes rinse out very easily. Mine went from vibrant purple to blonde roots and dark ends. It took my hair dresser 4 hours to get the color out of my hair.

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

Thank you for this post! This is the exact question I had (about ethnic hair). I color my hair trying to hide the (premature) grays and I would like to not have to relax my hair so much.
