Choosing the right type of dye for your hair can sometimes be a tricky task due to the wide variety of options available on the market. There are all kinds of dyes, from permanent to temporary color baths. Each dye offers different results and it is important to select the one that best suits our personal needs and style. In this article, discover the different types of hair dyes that exist, as well as their characteristics and find out how to choose the right one for you.


Types of dyes according to their duration

In the market, there are different types of dyes depending on how long we want to have them in our hair.


Permanent dyes 

Dyes that are permanent are the most used. These types of dye are recommended especially when we want to cover our gray hair or make a radical change in look. You can also find a wide range of hair tones. Its main feature is that they do not go with the washes, although it is advisable to reapply the color every so often to avoid exposure of roots and maintain brightness and color.


Semi-permanent dyes 

This dye is applied without the need to undergo fading processes. This option is perfect for those hair that are fragile or damaged, as it does not contain ammonia. This type of dye is used a lot for hair reflections or to conceal gray hair. Its maximum duration is 8 washes. Within this type, you can consider the colors of fantasy.


Temporary dyes 

Temporary dyes do not penetrate directly into the structure of our hair. They also contain ammonia. It differs from permanent dyes in that they only coat the hair with a tone and fall off easily with a wash. They are ideal for testing a new color or enhancing the natural tone of hair. Also, you have to take into account the type of color of dye according to your tone, this way you will get the color that best suits your skin and natural hair color.


Types of dyes by composition

Ammonia-free dyes

As we have discussed above in the types of dye according to their duration, there are colorations without ammonia. This type of dye has many advantages. They are easy to apply and prevent hair from drying out, protecting the hair fiber. The result that offers you is much more natural than a traditional dye.


Natural dyes 

These dyes are very respectful of our skin and especially the environment. Natural dyes can be used by vegan people because they do not contain paraffins or parabens. They may not contain the same variety of colors as a traditional dye or do not cover perfectly gray hair or imperfections.


Vegetable dyes 

Within this type, we find the dyes of Henna or Camomile. Vegetable dyes are made on the basis of extracting pigments from the plants we have mentioned. They are progressive dyes, which means that they need several applications to get the color we want.

 

Choosing the right type of dye is important to achieve the color we want and protect, first of all, the health of our hair.
