Sure, we all want to change our look every once in a while and sometimes that involves changing our hair color also. There are those people who don't know the meaning of moderation and just go and color their hair to excess, which damages their hair beyond repair.
While there are many professional hair coloring systems out there that only cause minimal damage to hair, many people still insist on buying hair color from department stores so that they can apply it at home. In many cases, this type of hair color causes extreme damage and if you use it too often, it could turn into a nightmare.
Hair color is actually a chemical that can change the structure of your hair. Every time you apply hair color, the outside of your hair strand is raised so that the color can be pushed into the strand. So the more you color, the more difficult it is for the outer layer to return to its natural and healthy position.
This outer layer is the first that is damaged by hair color. This layer is responsible for your hair color's shine and vibrancy, too. So if you color too much, by and by you'll notice that your hair would look dry and dull.
This outer layer is also the one that holds your hair color in. Once it refuses to close properly, your color will start to fade and over time, become completely washed out. Coloring again will only be a temporary solution, because the color just won't stay long.
If you ignore all of these damage signals and continue to colour your hair, you will eventually break down the entire make up of your hair strands. Your hair will become brittle and break. At worst, it will turn into mush and disintegrate right before your eyes.
To keep these from happening, you have to make sure there is enough time in between colors for your hair to heal. Don't do any drastic color changes for at half a year unless your hair is short. Also, do not color your hair from root to tip for each and ever color touch up. It's best if you color the root only. And get those trims when you need them.
