Brown Hair Dye - Why You Should Leave It to the Professionals
While it may seem as simple as picking a box dye off the shelf, the reality is that home hair colouring doesn’t always turn out as expected. That gorgeous chocolate brown on the box might leave you with uneven colour, unwanted brassiness, or patchy results.
One of the biggest challenges with brown hair dye is the underlying warm tones. Brown hair naturally contains red and orange pigments, which can become overly visible if not coloured or lightened correctly. This is especially common when attempting a DIY balayage or home lightening kit. What starts as a sun-kissed glow can quickly turn into unwanted brassy orange or red tones!
If you’ve had a home hair dye disaster, don’t panic! At Sassy Hairdressing Salon, our expert colour correction specialists can help. We have the knowledge to customise a colour that neutralises warmth, ensuring you get the rich, natural looking brunette shade you actually wanted.
Can Your Hair Go From Blonde to Brunette? Here’s What You Need to Know!
Thinking about swapping your blonde locks for a gorgeous brunette shade? Whether you’re after a soft honey brown, a rich mocha mousse, or a deep espresso hue, going darker is more than just applying a brown dye - it’s actually a colour correction process.
When hair has been lightened, it loses the underlying warm tones that give brown hair its natural depth. This means that simply applying a dark shade over blonde hair can result in a flat, uneven colour or even unwanted green or muddy tones. To get the perfect brunette shade, our expert colourists at Sassy Hair Salon carefully add the missing pigments before applying your chosen brown colour. This ensures a rich, natural-looking result that lasts. If you’ve ever tried to dye blonde hair brown at home and ended up with an unexpected orange or gingery hue, it's because brown hair contains warm undertones. Without the right pre-toning process, these can become overly visible.
The cost of your hair colour makeover will depend on the starting shade, the desired end result, and how many sessions it takes to get there. This will all be discussed during your consultation, ensuring you know exactly what to expect before we begin.
How to Keep Your Hair Looking Glossy
To keep your hair looking fresh, vibrant, and full of shine, make sure you use the right shampoo, conditioner, and treatments tailored to your hair type. Whether your hair is dry, damaged, or chemically treated, choosing the correct products is essential for maintaining that glossy, salon-fresh finish.
At Sassy Hair Salon, we offer a range of in-salon hair treatments designed to restore and nourish your locks. One of our top recommendations is the K18 Molecular Hair Repair Treatment, which helps repair broken bonds, strengthen hair, and bring back its natural shine.
Top tip! Minimise heat styling. Excessive use of heat tools can lead to dryness and dullness. When styling, always apply a heat protectant spray to shield your hair from damage.
To keep your colour looking its best between appointments, we also stock a selection of professional home haircare products. Our stylists will recommend the perfect options to suit your hair’s needs, so you can enjoy healthy, radiant brown hair every day!
