Question

When I'm frosting my hair, when should I apply overall color?

Community Answer

In the very beginning, apply overall color. Then frost your hair so it wont look strange and mis-colored.

Question

Can I frost over a blue color?

Community Answer

You could; frost is just bleach, so it would lighten the blue.

Question

How do I frost my hair when it's light?

Community Answer

You or your stylist may want to remove some of the color and tone it down with a lighter color and then highlight. Depending where you live, it can be kind of pricey. Recolor and highlights in most places cost at least $100.

Question

Is it safe to apply frosting a day after I have put my natural hair color on my hair?

Angie

Community Answer

No. You should always wait at least a week to apply any kind of hair dye after you dye your hair. It you don't wait, you could damage your hair, making it brittle and frizzy.

Question

How do I know what color to make my roots?

Community Answer

Match the undertone of your skin to the undertone of your hair. If you have a yellowy undertone to your skin, stick to warmer colors. If you have grayer tones in your hairs, make the colors warm, as well.
