XMONDO, a hair care and color brand created by Brad Mondo, shared the tips on its popular TikTok page.

The expert in the video promised to help people get the “perfect color application at home.”

CREATE ROAD LINES FOR THE DYE

“Although bright pink hair is a major vibe, bright pink skin is not,” the hair dyeing expert stated as she explained the first tip.

“So, put on some gloves and take some vaseline all around your hairline, your ears, your neck – wherever you make a mess – and that’s gonna protect your skin.

YOUR SHAMPOO MATTERS

Secondly, the woman instructed people to use a “clarifying shampoo” one to two nights prior to dyeing their hair.

“Ths is gonna remove all that gross build-up on your hair so the color goes on perfectly even,” she explained.

Per Good HouseKeeping, a clarifying or purifying shampoo is designed to “remove stubborn residue on your hair that your everyday shampoo may miss.”

DYE SMALL SECTIONS

The woman next advised people to dye small sections of their hair at a time as she dyed her own.

She said you should move from the ends of the hair to the top and said it’s super important to make sure each strand is saturated evenly.

“Do not miss one; you’re gonna notice,” she warned.

ACETONE WORKS WONDERS

The fourth at-home hair dyeing tip applies to anyone who is prone to making a mess.

“A little bit of acetone will take that hair dye stain off your counter so you can get your security deposit back,” she explained, identifying with people who rent their residences.

USE COLD WATER

“And lastly, tip No. 5 – I’ve said it once and I will say it again – rinse your hair out in cold water,” the expert noted.

“Do not ruin all your work by taking a hot shower to get this out.”

And if you do end up getting a bit of dye on your skin, don’t fret.

Haircare and coloring company Schwarzkopf shared exactly how to get it off.
