How often can I color my hair and should I apply it to my whole head of hair every time?

Wait at least 2-3 weeks between hair colorings.

The longer you wait between colorings, the better. For best results, wait at least two weeks between hair coloring treatments. 

• Most of us will see root growth after 2-3 weeks.
• Naturtint developed the Root Retouch to blend seamlessly with your existing Naturtint permanent hair color to extend the time between full colorings. If your root growth is more than an inch in length, it is best to use a full-size Naturtint permanent hair color kit to perform a root touch-up.

Leave the coloring on your roots longer than your ends.

It can produce uneven results, coloring your whole head of hair every time.  If you apply the hair color to your whole head for the same amount of time each time you color, the ends of your hair can retain too much color and appear darker than other sections of your hair. Typically for a root touch-up with the same color, you will leave the hair color on your roots for the longest time (especially in the case of gray coverage) and on the mid-length and ends of your hair for the least amount of time. Performing a color strand test will help determine how long to leave the hair color on three different sections of hair to achieve the most even results!
