Get the right brush
Getting the right brush to touch up your roots can be tricky. There are many brands, models, and techniques for getting new hair on and into your brush.
When choosing a new brush, make sure that it is soft. A hard brush will tug at your hair as it is cut, and will not give a smooth finish. A casual-looking brush can use professional-quality cosmetics to enhance the hair.
Then, when you want a new look, just pick up the same new brush from your previous look. It is also important to take care of the brush when you get new hair. Use it only once before throwing it in the bath or sharing it with someone.
Make sure that it is dry before trying to paint on new hairs onto it. This will ensure that it does not change the shape of the rest of its body and looks better for both of you.
Use a spray bottle
Holding a can of hair spray or hairspray in your hand will make it look like someone sprayed very, very lightly on your hair. When you walk out the door, it will stand up and stick to your hair.
This method is costlier, but also more beautiful. Using a can of beer as a foam product works well for this. You can purchase different sizes of beer so this is not an impossible challenge.
Use a lightest foam possible so that the hair does not look heavy and stick to the root. Be careful with affective sprays that are labeled “ relaxing” because those may not be good for fine hair.
The only wrong way to touch up your roots is by using too much shampoo or conditioner because of shampoo/conditioner ratio.
Use powder
You can also use liquid, gel, or powder to touch up your roots. The right tools will let you create a more natural look that is still tight and professional.
Most hair stylists use the same products to create a different look. Some use oils, some tints, some moisturizers, and some conditioners. All of these can be used on roots to change the look.
Ribbons are a great way to put a cosmetic on your hair. You can find them at beauty supply stores and online. They cost less than most other hairstyling products, liners, and concentrates but you gain more control over how much comes out.
Use just enough product to cover your ends and then brush out any tangles.
Brush on dye
Another way to touch up roots is with a more specialized product called brush on dye. This method requires much more work and preparation, but can make a big difference in looking your roots up.
Most brands do not recommend using this method for removing colored hairs, because it can cause breakage if not done properly. However, it does guarantee a fresh look and allows you to go back and add more if desired.
To use this method, you must first wet your hair very well to protect the hair from dryness. Then, you must carefully brush the hair until it is as dry as possible with out being crunchy. You can then use a comb or brush to smooth out the looked up!
Then, you must add the dye to the right areas of your hair to match the color of your hairs. You can do this by using some shampooing gel or threading the needle into the dye and pulling up a little water-retaining substance.
Wait the required time
If you want your Hair to last longer, you should wait the required time before shampooing and styling it. This does not apply to all hair types, but some hairstyles require more time for growth.
Some people have trouble with waiting the required time for others. If this happens to you, do not worry; there are ways to touch up your hair at home. You can use a hairdryer or brush through your hair several times per day as alternatives to shampooing and styling it every day.
By doing these tips at home, you will be able to try one of them and see if it works for you. You can also try mixing some of these with some straight shampoo and brushing or combing through with a handheld dryer or texturizer.
Wash your hair
When you dye your hair, it takes a long time to see the results. That is why it is important to wash your hair when you dye it.
When you shampoo the hair, it removed some of the natural oils that were in your hair before it was dye. These oils re-adhered to the hair as a result.
To touch up your roots, you must wash and dry your hair thoroughly before attempting to add any new roots. You can use either a hairdryer or a straight heat device to heat your roots. You can also use a warm shower oil or soap on top of the actual roots.
Brush out the roots
After you’ve washed and dried your hair, go back to the laminator and brush out the very long roots. This way, it will smooth out the very thick hair on top of your head.
Then, go back to the hairdryer and dry your hair until it is sleek and sweet. You can now touch up the roots or brown them if you were blonde before.
Now that you have added some length to your hair, now it is time to brush out the ends. This may take several tries because your hair is still trying to get itself back together.
Match the color closely
When doing a touch-up at home, it is important to match the color closely. You can do this by using the same shade of shampoo and/or conditioner that was used to style your hair, or by using different shades of shampoo and/or conditioner.
Some people report that going with different colors result in more vibrant touch-ups, so you decide which ones work for you!
The reason this is important is because when hair is color-done, it requires a lighterening process to return it back to its original color. When it does not match up with the new color, it may lose some of its value!
Having a good match can also prevent any kind of crinkling or damage to the hair.
