    Is permanent hair dye really that bad for your hair? Does the nonpermanent hair dye damage it and which is worse highlights or hair dye?

    Permanent hair dye is really bad for your hair if you keep doing it over and over and over. And both hair and highlights will damage your either way, but I think hair dye much worse since it does your whole hair

    I've dyed my hair tons of times since I was a teenager. I finally let it grow out to my natural hair color, only it wasn't my natural hair color anymore. My natural color darkened a lot from dying my hair so much.

    Right now its almost blonde I guess. If I dye it black will it come out black or will it come out brown because I tried the nonpermanent one and it didn't come out black. Do I just have to leave it in longer?

    When you say non-permanent do you mean like the store bought kind you get in a box?

    No like the one that washes off in like 12-20 washes or something and it says nonpermanent on the box and its awesome because you can change your haircolor everymonth if you want to

    Every time you dye your hair, permanent or non-permanent, there are chemicals involved that fry your hair. Its definitely not healthy. But my advice is if you want it done correctly go to a salon and have it done, usually trying to dye it yourself ends up in a bad outcome. And instead of dying it a different color every month, pick one that you like and stick with it. Getting root touch ups is a little better than dying your whole head of hair all the time.

    It would be best to give it a rest for a while. Your hair really gets fried from all those harsh chemicals in hair dye.

    Hair coloring is not healthy for your hair but if you insist on dying your hair there are healthier ways to go about it. NEVER use hair color from a box you bought at the store (it may seem cheaper but if you mess up it will ned up costing more in the long run) it will damage your hair even more having to fix it. I've had my hair highlighted for over 10 years now, my hair is healthy (of course it could be a little healthier) but I would never try to do it myself, I'll leave that up to my hairdresser.

    Do different colors have a different effect on the quality of your hair?

    I have been dying my hair for many of years. Non permanent hair dye has no Ammonia in it which can change the texture to your hair and can cause breakage. The non permanent dye will last up to 8 shampoos, as where as permanent shampoo will just fade in color. Bleaching can cause over processing that can lead to dry damaged hair, cause your hair to become limp, fall out or even break off. I am not an expert but I do speak from experience,
