Top Hair Color Questions and Answers in Naugatuck

Cutting Crew is the top family hair salon near you that offers affordable haircuts, styling, and coloring services for men, women, and children.

Coloring your hair yourself can be time consuming, create a big mess, and even ruin your hair. Why put yourself through that? The hair stylists in Naugatuck will be able to color your hair and achieve your desired results without damaging it in the process.

Cutting Crew Hair Salon also has high end service without the high end price, so there is no need to break the bank just to get your hair done!

We do both single and double process hair services. As long as your hair is healthy and in good condition, applying a color and a lightener in the same appointment is not a problem. If your hair is damaged or has been colored recently, doing more to your hair is not recommended as it can cause further damage. Our stylists in Naugatuck can talk with you about a hair color plan and what steps to take in order to get your desired style.

This is among the most common hair color questions and answers we see. After getting a color service, your hair is going to be extra sensitive to environmental factors and damage. In order to keep your hair healthy and keep your color vibrant, use products made for color treated hair. And for the first two weeks after getting your hair done, it is best to limit excessive heat and tight hairstyles.

  • Semi-Permanent: This treatment does not contain any chemicals to lift color, which means it only makes hair darker and not lighter. The color will last about six to twelve washes because it only coats the hair with color and does not penetrate any of the hair strand layers. Semi-permanent is a great choice if you are not wanting to commit to the color for a long time or if you are worried you won’t like it.
  • Demi-Permanent: This treatment contains low amounts of lightener which can slightly lift color from your hair. Demi-permanant deposits color under the first layer of the hair strand which means it will last through about 12 to 26 shampoos.
  • Permanent: This treatment is just as it sounds, permanent. This will last until the hair strands grow out. A permanent color treatment can lighten hair up to 4 levels, but anything more is not recommended as it can cause damage to the hair.

A semi-permant hair dye will not damage your hair as it is only depositing color onto the outside of the hair strand, similar to a demi-permanent dye. However, using a permanent hair treatment opens up the hair layers to deposit color and if this is not done properly, or if it is done too frequently, can cause damage.

It is best to talk to the professionals at Cutting Crew Hair Salon to make sure your hair is healthy and can handle a color treatment.

If you have dark shade of hair and are trying to achieve a light shade of hair, you will need to use hair bleach or peroxide in order to lift the pigment of your hair color. When done correctly, this is not damaging and can create a beautiful natural look - or a fun and spunky look if that’s what your hoping for.

It is understandable to be apprehensive about getting a color treatment done while pregnant or breastfeeding, but we can assure you it is safe. The chemicals used in the dying or lifting process are not highly toxic and cannot affect the fetus. If you are still concerned, please feel free to reach out to our stylists and they can help answer any more of your hair color questions.

Yes getting a hair color service will cover gray hair. It is true that covering gray hair can be tricky, but at Cutting Crew Hair Salon we can use specially formulated products to cover those pesky grays. If you have more than 50% gray hair, we recommend a semi-permanent or a permanent treatment to be sure everything gets covered.

It is recommended to wait at least 24 hours before shampooing your color treated hair, but waiting 48 hours is best. Washing your hair too soon after receiving a color service can cause unnecessary trauma to your already vulnerable hair. It can also cause your colors to dull faster and not last as long as you might want. A good rule of thumb is to shampoo your hair about three times a week to maintain its radiance and color.
