    Adjacent choice how much of your hair you desire to be dyed. In this instance, I used 3-4 inches, but you tin do more than or less. Dip this corporeality of hair in the mixture and leave in for 15-thirty minutes depending on pilus darkness.

    For lighter hair fifteen minutes will do, but for dark-brown to black hair xx-thirty minutes. The longer you leave your hair in the more likely it will be brighter and last longer. The color should typically last two-4 weeks depending on how oft you wash it.
