Step-by-Step Guide: How to Color Your Hair at Home with Stillman’s
Step 1: Choose the Right Shade
Stillman’s offers several beautiful shades to match your preferences. Whether you're looking for natural black, brown, or burgundy, select a color that complements your skin tone and style.
Pro Tip: If you're coloring your hair for the first time, go one shade lighter than your desired result. You can always go darker, but lightening dyed hair is more difficult.
Step 2: Perform a Patch Test
Even though Stillman’s Hair Color uses nourishing ingredients, it’s important to check for any allergic reactions.
-
Mix a small amount of the color and developer.
-
Apply it to a small area behind your ear or on your forearm.
-
Wait 24 hours to ensure there’s no irritation, redness, or itching.
Step 3: Prep Your Hair and Workspace
-
Wash your hair 24-48 hours before coloring to allow natural oils to build up (this helps protect the scalp).
-
Wear an old t-shirt and place an old towel over your shoulders.
-
Apply petroleum jelly or moisturizer around your hairline, ears, and neck to prevent staining.
Step 4: Mix the Hair Color
Open your Stillman’s Hair Color box and:
-
Squeeze the Color Cream and Developer into a plastic bowl in equal parts.
-
Use a brush to mix until smooth.
Make sure you're using a non-metallic bowl and brush, as metals can react with the developer.
Step 5: Apply the Hair Color
-
Divide your hair into 4 sections for easier application.
-
Start applying the color from the roots if you're covering greys.
-
For complete transformation, begin from the back and work your way to the front.
-
Use a dye brush or your gloved hands to apply the mixture evenly.
-
Massage the product through your hair for full coverage.
Step 6: Let the Color Develop
Let the color sit for 30-45 minutes, depending on the shade and your hair’s thickness.
Do not exceed the time as it may dry out your hair. Follow the specific instructions in your Stillman’s hair color box.
Step 7: Rinse and Condition
-
Rinse your hair with lukewarm water until it runs clear.
-
Avoid shampooing immediately.
-
Use a color-safe conditioner (Stillman’s recommends moisturizing products enriched with aloe vera and vitamin E).
Tips for Long-Lasting, Vibrant Color
-
Avoid hot showers – Hot water fades color faster. Use cool or lukewarm water.
-
Wash less frequently – Shampoo 2-3 times a week max.
-
Use sulfate-free products – Regular shampoos strip color.
-
Deep condition weekly – Keep your hair hydrated and shiny.
-
Protect from sun – Wear a hat or use UV-protective sprays when going out.
