Addicted to hair color?

How can I stop coloring my hair? I have colored it since I was 13, I am 29 now. I seriously color it twice a month even if I like the color. My natural hair color is a dark ash blond with blond highlights, I really just want to grow it out an leave it alone - any suggestions?

If you keep it up then your hair will snap off while you are getting your next coloring.

If I were you I would seriously shave it off. Your hair must be sooooo unhealthy!

If you will definately not shave it then get a rejuvinating hair mask and use it twice a week.

You could also wait 5 or 6 months until your hair grows out a bit and then get a cute pixie cut:

Go to your hairdresser and ask how you can bring your hair back to health

As for the coloring addiction, just be aware how unhealthy it is for your hair to be over, over processing it like that and the results will be very unfortunate if you don't stop soon.

wow. that's not good for your hair. you should dye it ONE more time as close as you can get it to you natural hair color...then when it grows out to a length that isnt oo short for you, cut the dye off and go natural.

I had an addiction to dyeing my hair too, you should stop because after a while it will get extremely damaged and it might possibly fall out. It also depends what color you dye it because if you dye it lighter (such as being a brunette and dying it to blonde) the peroxide will damage your hair from the bleaching. If you go darker however, the chemicals are gentler on your hair and you wont have much damage. As far as growing it out though, I know it sucks because your hair is two-toned for a while but its worth it once it grows out and your hair is healthy again.

I think I have the same problem. I randomly get the urge to go back to my natural color (which is about the same color as yours) so I just dye my hair a color that's very close to my natural color. When it grows out, you won't even be able to tell where the dyed hair begins if you get a good enough color match.

I would go to the hair dresser and get your hair dyed as close to your natural color as possible.

Then when you get the craving to dye it, just wait and see if the feeling passes. Distract yourself. Also, don't go down the aisle in the stores that sells dye. You don't want to tempt yourself. Try substituting this habit for experimenting with nail polish or lipstick.

Good luck, give your hair a break before it does.
