Before Your Color Your Hair At Home

Simple steps for at-home, salon-quality hair color

How do I find my perfect shade?

Finding your ideal shade is easy! Start by using our Color Finder tool, which recommends shades based on your natural hair color, skin tone, and desired result. You can also check our Color Shade Chart and read individual product descriptions to see which colors suit your look best. If you’re ever unsure, our hair color experts are here to help.

What should I do before coloring my hair?

For the best results, make sure your hair is clean and dry before coloring. Avoid washing your hair immediately before coloring if it’s prone to dryness—natural oils help protect your scalp. Perform a patch test 48 hours before application to ensure you don’t have an allergic reaction. Also, gather all the necessary tools (application kit, measuring cup, and old towel) to make the process smooth and mess-free.

How do I achieve 100% grey coverage?

For full grey coverage, choose a shade from our N series, the only line formulated to provide 100% grey coverage. Follow the instructions carefully, paying attention to processing time. For stubborn greys, a slightly darker shade or a two-step application may be recommended. Regular touch-ups at the roots will help maintain consistent results.

Best practices to protect and nourish your at-home hair color

Once I finish coloring, how do I make my hair color last?

To keep your color vibrant and healthy, use our Herbatint Color Protecting Shampoo and Conditioner. These gentle formulas help preserve your shade, nourish your hair, and prevent fading. Avoid excessive heat styling and sun exposure, and use a deep-conditioning treatment weekly to maintain softness and shine.

Can I reuse Herbatint products for future use?

Yes! Leftover color can be stored properly for future use. Make sure to keep it in an airtight container and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

How long should I wait until my next at-home hair color session?

We recommend waiting 4–6 weeks before your next coloring session, depending on hair growth and grey coverage. Touch-ups on roots can be done as needed to maintain a consistent look.
