Here are some handy tips that will make your hair look healthier and glow with the desired color and give you salon-like results along with quick and easy solutions to common problems related with coloring your hair:

While coloring your hair for the first time, start at the crown or at the nape of the neck, where the natural hair color is darkest.
Hair color at the hair ends fade more quickly as they are porous and do not hold color. Thus apply hair color that is one level darker to the ends, without adding the developer.
You can add small amount of gold or yellow accent to the hair color at the ends or certain sections of your hair to add warmth to them or add a highlighting effect.
If you go out in the sun or swim regularly, your hair color may wear off quickly. To avoid this, condition your hair regularly to negate the effects of summer heat and water.
Chemicals used in swimming pool may give a greenish tint to blonde hairs. To combat this, use a good clarifying shampoo and them use a warm accent on your hair that can be red or gold, depending on the type of blonde hair you have.
Hair colors with blue base may give a greenish cast to yellow or gold hair while those with violet base, gives more natural and better results.
If light-reddish blonde tones fade to orange color, you can use a little red-gold accent to give fashionable highlights.
If your current hair color is darker than the next shade chosen, use a color remover to completely lose the old tint. However, they are effective on only artificial colors and not natural hair color.
Unwanted warm tone of hair can be calmed down using ash or violet accents.
For gray hair, use a shade darker than the shade of color used on the rest of the hair.
Always color your hair, when they are fully dry because color of damp and wet hair may get diluted later.
