How to Cover Red Hair Dye
- 1). Pour equal parts of hair color and developer into the color bottle. Close the lid and shake the bottle until the color is completely blended with the developer.
- 2). Part your hair directly in the middle. Create a second, horizontal part from ear to ear and across the top of the head. Your hair should now be in four sections. Pin the sections with hair clips. Place a towel over your shoulders to protect your clothing. Put on latex gloves.
- 3). Remove the hair clip from one section. Apply hair color from root to tip using 1/2-inch cross sections. Continue applying color until the entire section is saturated. Move onto the next section and repeat the process. Continue until all hair is thoroughly saturated with hair color. Check to make sure that all hair has been covered with hair color.
- 4). Wait 20 minutes. During this time, take off the latex gloves, and clean up the color mess.
- 5). Rinse with lukewarm water until the water runs clear. Shampoo the hair and follow up with a conditioner. Rinse out the conditioner, towel dry and style as desired.
