Is it possible to mix hair dyes from different companies
We answer one of the most popular questions for home color lovers.
Everyone who dyes their hair at home at least once asked the question: “Is it possible to mix hair dyes from different companies?” Indeed, after each procedure, from one or the other package, a significant part of the unused product remains. And if you mix them, it’s enough for a whole coloring (maybe even a few)! However, we advise you not to rush into experiments and suggest that you figure out with an expert why this is still not worth doing.
Why not mix paints from different manufacturers?
“I would not recommend mixing paints from different manufacturers. To create a beautiful shade, I advise you to contact a specialist, ”notes stylist-colorist Darina Jordan.
There are several reasons for this.
You will not understand what the final shade will turn out to be.
The color may turn out to be uneven: lighter or darker than necessary.
In addition, the composition of paints from different manufacturers can vary significantly. This means that some of the ingredients in the products may simply be incompatible with each other.
Those who have dyed their hair on their own at home for many years agree with the expert’s opinion. After all, even when you dye your hair with one tool, when mixed with oxide in a slightly different proportion, the result can be unpredictable.
Thus, there should be one remedy, preferably tested. And if you want a deeper or more unique shade, only an experienced colorist will help you to achieve it.
