Hair Dye for Black Hair

Palty Hair Dye - Milk Tea Brown
Having black hair can be a really big pain when it comes to hair dyeing. I wasn't willing to go through the process of bleaching and dy-ing it on top of that.. So I did a lot of research in discovering a possible alternative by dyeing at home. Considering it costs around $80-$100 to get your hair dyed in the salon.. I wasn't willing to dish out that much just to change the color of my hair that will just grow out of that color in a couple of weeks. I came upon this Japanese hair dye called Palty  and fortunately I lived near a chinese mall that had basically any beauty products you wanted to find that were from Asia. I didn't know about Amazon before I purchased it, so I went searching for nearby Asian stores. The lowest price I found it at was at the chinese mall for $15. I've dyed my hair a lot in the past and NEVER once was I fully satisfied with the results.. the color just never showed! So like everyone online said, the Palty hair dye would show up better if left on for a longer time of period. So i decided to leave it on for a hour or so. My hair turned out orangey, but was expected because it's hard to get black hair tot urn into a natural brown unless it's been bleached. Nonetheless, I love the results and have received compliments at school on it. My hair actually felt less damaged after dyeing it with Palty.. oddly lol. Fortunately it doesn't look as orange when you're indoor..but if you're just tired of having black hair (like me), any lighter hair shade would definitely give you enough change in look. And I mean.. if you look at a lot of the Asian celebrities' hair, many of them have orange-toned hair =P. For the price, this product gives you salon quality results.. but be sure to prepare for commitment with an orange-brown tone if you're willing to test this product out!
