Mixing Permanent Hair Dye & Color Masks: Yes or No?

The allure of vibrant, long-lasting color is undeniable. Some permanent dyes can cause damage, so many of us crave a more manageable approach. Color masks are like conditioners that offer temporary color and a healthy shine. But what if you could combine the two? Can you mix your dye with a color mask for a customized boost? Let’s take a look.

The Chemical Clash

Many people have wondered how to mix permanent hair dye and color masks – and we recommend you don’t. Mixing these two products creates an unpredictable chemical reaction, especially when you add the bleach before the dye. 

The permanent dye could also affect how well the mask works, leading to uneven color deposits, patchiness, or a dull or lifeless look. However, while mixing permanent color hair dye and masks can be tricky, if you do it properly, you can get the benefits of both. 

Make the Most of Your Mask

Before grabbing the dye, give your hair some TLC with a color mask in a shade similar to your desired outcome. This pre-dye pampering session helps prepare your locks for the coloring process by improving its overall condition. 

Once you’ve got your preferred shade, don’t forget about aftercare! Dyes can be drying, so incorporate masks formulated for dyed hair into your routine. It’ll work like a deep conditioner while adding extra color to refresh your style.
