Outlines
๐จ Preparing to Dye Hair
The speaker announces their plan to dye their hair, highlighting the presence of black roots that need coverage. They will use a medium golden chestnut brown dye, slightly darker than their current color. They detail the contents of the dye kit, including developer, dye, instructions, and conditioner. Emphasizing the need for a shirt that can get stained and a garbage bag for extra protection, they also mention the importance of using gloves. Dirty hair is recommended for better dye adherence. The process starts with snipping the applicator tip, mixing the colorant into the developer bottle, and shaking it carefully to avoid spills.
๐โโ๏ธ Applying Hair Dye
The speaker explains their unconventional method of applying the dye, which involves using their hands instead of sectioning their hair with a comb. This method is chosen because their thick, wavy hair doesn't benefit from combing through, which can cause damage. They assure that despite the non-traditional approach, their hair dye results are usually satisfactory, often creating a highlighted effect. Emphasis is placed on concentrating the dye at the roots for even coverage.
โณ Waiting and Final Steps
The speaker continues the dye application, focusing on the roots. They describe the importance of not rubbing the product into the scalp but ensuring thorough distribution. After application, they plan to wait 40 minutes, as per the dye instructions, and will use a shower cap to keep the hair away from their face. They stress washing off any dye from the skin to avoid irritation. After 40 minutes, the hair should be rinsed and conditioned. They advise against shampooing or conditioning for at least a day after dyeing.
๐ Post-Dye Results
A few days later, the speaker shows the results of the hair dye. The new color is darker with red tinges. They express uncertainty about the new look but praise the dye brand for its effectiveness and affordability. They note that the ends of their hair remained mostly unchanged, creating a slight gradient effect. Overall, they are satisfied with the dye's performance and share that they would use the same brand again.

Transcripts
hi guys so what's up um today I'm going
to dye my hair so I usually dyed my hair
myself it's about time that I dye my
hair now because you can see I'm having
starting to have black roots and it's no
good so I'm gonna dye my hair well
anyways um so I'm not going to dye my
hair this exact color again I'm going to
diet medium golden chestnut brown so I'm
just going to go a little bit darker and
a little bit firmer so it comes with
developer which is awesome and it comes
with the actual hair dyed color and it
also comes with instructions and it
comes with a conditioner cool so the
first thing that I'm gonna do is first I
want to make sure that I'm wearing a
t-shirt that I don't care about because
that's really important you know you
know you might just leave some stains on
your shirt so you want to make sure
you're where you're sure that you don't
want to care about then for extra
coverage then I use a garbage bag and I
poke a hole in it money poked my head
through like that
the other important thing that you have
is gloves it doesn't matter what kind of
clothes you have but these gloves are
from Sally's Beauty Supply and they're
actually just made for dyeing hair and
they're reusable so they're awesome
they're really strong and sturdy and one
more thing um for a Dyer hair it's also
good to note that your hair color will
stay in a little bit longer if you dye
your hair when it's a little bit dirty
so hair has been washed the other day so
it's like day-old dirty hair so first
thing we're going to do is snip off a
little tip on the applicator bottle okay
it's nipped off yes it is but then we
remove the and up then we take the
colorant very careful always feel like a
chemist when I do this then we're going
to pour the liquid into the developer
bottle and we are going to replace the
lid okay and then you have to make sure
you put your fingertip on top of the
little opened tip because when you shake
it you don't want any of the liquid to
go into your face or into your eyes
cover it and then shake it away from
your face so the next thing it says to
do is to section off your hair in four
sections so I don't really do that it's
because I just filmed instead I just do
look my own section so I do kind of like
a half ponytail so I can get the under
layer
I actually do is I rub it onto my hand
and then I just kind of pump it through
like rub it in or sometimes they just
draw a line here
and I know you're supposed to use a comb
and everything so I mean you might look
at me and think wow she is a long lazy
girl it's not that I'm lazy oh maybe I
am lazy but it's also that I am thick
wavy hair and my hair type is not
supposed to be combed through it because
it just ruins the waves and it breaks it
down as it slightly damages your hair
especially wavy hair because it's like
not even jumbled and then you try to
like break that it's not good for it so
I know what you're thinking um you know
I'm being lazy and my hair's not going
to come out even but my hair always
comes out fine so um and sometimes it
doesn't come like yeah it doesn't come
out like all one color but it does come
out for the most part and listen thanks
about it is that since it doesn't come
out one solid color like Vicky's off as
like almost like I have highlights so
it's like a mixture but um usually I do
a good job and people are surprised when
I tell them that I do it middle and I do
concentrate out of it on by the scalp
you're not supposed to rub the product
into yourself but I just do it I just
kind of um rub the product right by my
scalp where I need it the most
kind of comb through with my fingers
there's any combing involved I'll use my
fingers okay so that's that for now and
I'm going to go back to it later and now
I'm going to do the top section of my
hair
you
when it comes to the root I usually just
apply the product directly on to my
scalp
um change in haircolor right now so
what's the same it just looks a wet um
but I'm going to keep on distributing
product and also as time on the product
should um I mean the color should change
to whatever color this is gonna be it
supposed to be a medium chestnut brown
but we'll see how this
hi so um I'm done coloring my hair and I
just remembered that I forgot to mention
that um you really want to concentrate
in the root you want to really make sure
that the roots get colored the most and
what's really important is that you kind
of play around with your scalp but you
don't want to rub it the product into
your scalp but we want to do is want to
comb your hair back as if you're going
to put it into like a ponytail or
something and make sure you really
distribute the product you can wing it
throughout the scalp and also make sure
your get underneath by the scalp
look at my face so I'm going to leave
the product in for um well paper says 40
minutes it depends on what hair dye
you're using um while I wait I'm going
to put my hair up and put it in a shower
cap make sure it's all away from my face
and then just note you want to make sure
that you wash off all the product that
is on your skin because it could harm
your skin um
and I'm going to be back and make
another video in a couple days when the
color really gets to set in a couple
days after you die hair is really when
it's going to start showing up make sure
you just follow all the directions on
the box and condition your hair after
you wait 40 minutes you just print it
and then condition your hair with a
conditioner it gives you if it gives you
conditioner and then the days after
don't shampoo your hair or condition it
like at least wait a day at least and
then you can shampoo and conditioner so
let's wait and I'll see you guys in a
couple days hi guys so it's been a
couple days since I dyed my hair and
this is the result
it has tinges of red but yeah um so it's
a lot darker I'm not sure if I really
like it
but all I know is that this brand that I
use it definitely works so if I want to
go back a lighter sue and I'll just go
back to that box because I really like
it it was really affordable too so I
kind of like that um but yeah
ah that is the hair color oh all my ends
they're kind of the same as they're kind
of the same from last time I didn't
really concentrate the color in the ends
it's a lot browner and lighter so it's
just slightly lighter it's not like
noticeable so it's like a slight barely
noticeable like gradient ombre almost
effect kind of not really though but
yeah this is the result so the guys
watching I'll see you guys the next
video
