I loved when I dyed my hair black and I’m wanting to again! Do you have to do anything in between dying it like use color remover or anything? Or do you just dye over the previously dyed hair? Anything to help keep it healthy and soft?

hey what box dye do u use?

goth style with the light eyes & dark hair are so pretty!

Same

Thank you for speaking for us 🖤

Fr though

Same

Same

Same!

I did the same for years. Then when I decided to do something different it was a nightmare.... it cost me a fortune to get to a brown/light brown(as well as time)

Exactly 💯 Me too.❤

My History teacher used to color her hair black & it always had a green tinge to it. Maybe it was the fluorescent lighting in the classroom, but I'll never forget that hair.

​@@loloholmes2793she was probably using an ash based hair dye.

I will agree with you on this for life 🖤

@@loloholmes2793 I’d be ok with the green color over the red that shows up in my hair haha.

@@user-tk4gr9zo7t I just spent 170 at the salon for a cut and all over color dye. I have mid length hair. The $3 box dye is very attractive 😂 My old stylist from a few years back who unfortunately lives in another state, plans to give me some mixs from like Sally’s or similar to save me money. If that doesn’t work and doesn’t* gives me that black box dye color I love so much, then it’s box dye for life 🖤❤️‍🔥🖤

same here

Same! I feel my best & much more confident with black hair

Me too! I actually LOVE IT

Same! 😊

Same. I’m a red toned brunette but my skin tone is pale cool tone. I love to be black haired or blonde or pastel/sunset. It’s such a problem 😂😂😂

Me too. My hair looks jet black but it’s the darkest of darkest brown you can have.

Mines like that . Ive been blonde highlighting it for past 3 years now. ​@GabbyEsq

Agreed. I've been dying my hair blue black since the 90s but I'm Black so I guess it's not a huge deal 😂

oooo I am biracial and have dark brown hair but now you're making me wonder if I should try dying mine blue black just to see if I like it. I've been wanting to dye it somehow, but I'm 40 and have a very dark aesthetic so no color really seemed right for me. This sounds like a fun experiment.

I love black or dark brown with diff undertones, once you find the one that works for you it's awesome

i love how you gas up your husband. and that he does your hair. go you and your software developer husband!!

My Dad used to cut my hair for me and he always did an awesome job! He was an engineer and I think the attention to detail that made him successful in his job made his great at making my hair look wonderful.

My bf (not husband) is a software developer too! He also cuts and dyes my hair for me! 🥹 I love him sm Edit: You probably can’t see it in my pfp cause it’s grown out a lot, but he gave me a “butterfly cut” and it was AMAZING! 😍 He did it before a Halloween party lol. He gave me the best haircut I’ve ever had!! I also was a red head girl, tried other colors, dyed brown rn, and I’ve been wanting to go black for years even before red.

Does it not mean that being called beautiful has ni meaning then? xd

@@zweij im sorry but I’m confused on ur comment I’m just saying that I like how he is nice to his subscribers by calling them beautiful I never see that here on YT I’m also slightly dyslexic so maybe that’s why I’m having trouble understanding ur comment nothing against u

@@zweijnope! it just means everything is special and everyone has beauty. More is more, and makes the world a better place ❤️

... Because everyone is beautiful ❤

He's just AWESOME! I LOVE his videos!💞

I did that in 2009! Blue black is such a cool color

For cold undertones. :( I did it in 2015 and I looked terrible, very "sick". My natural hair is dark and I look better in it than light, so I was confused, I found out years later that only cold undertones (winters especially) can pull of "blue black" hair and I envy you so much.

I just did mine purple-black and Ive gotten so many compliments!! 💜

I look terrible in darker hair colors. It ages me so much more than dying my hair silver. Crazy how I look younger with silver hair than with black hair. 🤷 To each their own and not everyone is meant to be of a color. I don't look good in blonde either, unless it is icy blonde or really bright strawberry blonde.

right now I'm in my blue-black phase and god, that's the best color existing! even when it fades a little after some time, I just put blue shampoo to make it shiny and add back the indigo undertone.

wow how old are you? 40+? not in a mean way

@snickerswo1f519 What the hell kind of comment is that? Is being over 40 in some way exceptional? How freaking young are you that someone being an adult is comment-worthy?

Thank you!@@trala8911

I think it’s because they’re replying to someone saying they’ve done something for “decades,” which suggests they’re several decades old to have done something for several decades…

Coconut oil works well too :)

Conditioner works too.

Basically any cream, oil or heavy lotion along your hairline will keep yourself clean

I do this every time and it's a game changer!! 😊

No because same. Getting it off is worse than washing the color out☠️

it looks AMAZING

@@sarahlopez6863 YOU look amazing! 🤎

You look beautiful. Your eyes just pop.

@@angiebear8727 thank you so much 🥹🥰

@@KyndraB93 only being honest. You are very welcome 🤗

I honestly didn’t have much appreciation for black hair until I read your comment. 🖤🖤🖤

Shout out to the witchy vibe women out there. I'm happy with the way it looks, and not all of us can afford the salon...🤍💙🧿

Amen

Yes yes yes yes yes!!!!

I love that idea!

DO IT, DO IT, DO IT! 🥳🥳🥳

Update 👀

Don't do it girl.. Buy salon developer level 10 or even a 5 if your going dark

Hair dye does go bad, so be sure to check the date on it (can find how online).

Yes😍 I’ve been blue black since high school and nice n easy blue black is the only one that doesn’t fade on me 🖤🖤🖤

I'm really pale with olive green/yellow undertones and blue grey eyes. I was always told I couldn't pull off black hair lol I'd be interested to know your opinion!

Which hair dye brand do you use for Demi?

I love this

💙

Fantastic!

I think he probably knows lol

He literally does this for a living... I'm sure he knows

@@ewbrainwormies doesn’t seem like it to me

@@Narra0002comprehension=0

What Brad doesn’t realize 🤓☝️ lol yeah hairdresser doesn’t know how hair dye works? He’s a colorist maybe you didn’t realize 💀

It’s easy .. I just cut off 30 inches

I am so grateful that he makes these videos to remind me to leave my hair to the professionals as well! 🙌🏽

How do you improve your own skills unless you practice though? 😅

Should’ve gotten a refund since the stylist didn’t do what you requested

I went from platinum to black and i love it

Exactly, for years I've had people try to get me to go blonde did that when I was a teen and early 20's got tired of it

I'm so annoyed that hairstylists refuse to give people what they want. You can give your opinion or talk about the reasons they might not want it, but telling someone no is bullshit. I always do my own hair now and I'm happier and less poor. Also, people hating on jet black hair is foolish, at best.

It’s good it was brown first then black though cause it filled in the blonde so it didn’t turn weirdly green

Yes! I have strawberry blonde hair and I’m not a person to maintain something like that so then I look like I’m balding when the light red comes thru 🥴

Natural blondes look horrible with black hair

Omg yes! I always think that’s why Billie eilish went for that hot color root 😂😂

i used to use their red and really want to go back to it i think this is my sign. it’s great if you have a color you love that you just want to be consistent everytime

My mom’s go to is that brand, too! Her absolute favorite and it works every time, too! She always gets the Natural Blue Black shade 🥰 I’ve also used it before when I was in my burgundy era and got so many compliments 💓

💗@@Hkkilla33

Sells itself! :)

Love your comment. I also solely use this Revlon brand hair dye and I have never had a single issue with it. Nice to know that they don't even need to advertise. The results and word-of-mouth keep the brand on top. ❤

Bro you spending $12 on box dye?

@@laerramarie2620 maybe they need more than one box. it's always a mistake to not have enough product ^^

Apparently a $3 box is truly out there

@@ticcitobyGaaraRules I cannot understand how people can can change their color repeatedly. It’s such a process to do it without destroying your hair. Every time I’ve changed my color I’ve stuck with it for AT LEAST 5 years. Maybe it was PTSD from having just removed the previous color 😂

@@BoringTroublemaker my PTSD was to remove henna from my hair. Nothing worked 😩😭 I needed to wait 10 years, for my hair to grow out.

@@ayahgrig9218 oooh yeah- I’ve avoided henna like the plague.

​@BoringTroublemaker I have been doing fantasy colors every 8-12 weeks for over 10 years. Repetitive all over bleaching killed my hair, so I have gone to a professional for the past 2 years. The first visit she lightly bleach it. It took 6 months to completely get to a level 8-9. We didn't dare try to get to a level 10. She only bleaches new growth and only pulls the bleach through for the last few minutes. Any remnants of the fantasy colors lighten enough to recolor without causing additional damage. I also co-wash 1-2x a week, which keeps my hair healthy and makes the color last much longer. That's my secret to vibrant, colorful hair. I'm back to doing it myself but use professional dye instead of box dye. There's much more control with pro color, too. I can do sections without it bleeding. Do your homework as to what you need to buy. Not sure if you're in North America, but the people at Sa**lly are helpful. Do your homework, though. The people at Sally's aren't always knowledgeable enough to make good recommendations for your particular hair type. They carry X-Mondo now, too, if you want to try it. The price point has kept me from using it, although their price is about 40-50% cheaper than Brad's site. I may start using it the next time I color. Hope this helps! 💜💜💜

@@VampFaye that’s great advice. I see my stylist every 6 weeks to have my blonde touched up and my highlights freshened up if needed now. I’m sticking with blonde for the foreseeable future until I decide to gray transition. But my stylist is a good friend who works at a high end salon and barely charges me anything, so I’m lucky to be able to do it. I’ve sworn to him not to touch my hair again 😂

Omg girl its never the answer lmfao

I'm a redhead and I tried to dye the ends of my hair black in high-school. After 2 washes it was seaweed green. Thankfully it was just the ends so I just chopped them off.

🤯

I've used the black from Revlon Colorsilk more than once, but recently just using dark brown. At least it doesn't have ammonia :)

The revlon one is definitely the blackest black ❤ My favorite is the L’Oréal one called “black leather” , I used that one the most

Why?

i agree - he looks even better in my opinion ✨

@@kristininatalieHe does!

It washes off easily if you wash your hair often. Obviously if you want to dye it blonde or anything around those shades , then of course it’s a pain in the butt , but it eventually washes off to your natural color

@@brendaserrano3477that’s not true. ​​⁠the pigments, especially the red pigments in black box dye never wash completely off. There’s always some sheen over the natural color that becomes less visible the darker your natural color is, but those pigments stick to your hair. Permanent box dye also uses 5 to 10 developer to blast the first layer of your hair open to let the pigments enter the follicle. Just based on that, your hair is never reverting to its original state, you have to let it grow out. The only color that really washes off is semi-permanent haircolors. The rule of thumb here is: if you have to mix ingredients to create a hair color, it’ll cause (minimal) damage and it’ll stick, if it’s just a tube of color, no mixing required, then it’ll wash off.

I dyed my hair black 15 years ago, and it doesn't.go.away 😂 now I have just embraced the reddish/brownish color it has left me with and keep coloring my roots with a color that looks like it 😂

I've gone from platinum blonde to red (for over 10 yesrs) to black, back to red, back to black for the last 25 years. I recently went from black to red back to black in 8 days lol. I got the black out in one step with Loreal color remover and my hair is totally fine.

@brendaserrano3477 yes! My hair is naturally blonde. I've used boxed dye since I was 12. I'm 39. I recently went from back to red back to black in about 8 days. I was my hair daily. I dye it with permanent black boxed dye. After about 6 weeks, the black is almost gone from my mids and ends. My blonde roots come through and there's about 3 inches of black still bx it's fresher hair.

Same to every point, except I'm only on year three

Me too! I went back to my natural level 7 hair and I miss the dark hair so much. I just hated how fast my roots would grow out and it would look like I had grey hair naturally. Lighter roots look so weird when your hair is dark🤣

funny cause I noticed that oil "masks" and cleansing shampoos gradually fade the pigment from the hair without any bleach intervention... in a matter of weeks.

I box dyed my hair for as long as I can remember I started to let it grow out over 2 years ago ….I have about 4 inches of black left in my hair

Why is black box dye harder to remove? I have virgin brown hair n wanting to dye it black, and i read some few articles online that black dye will washes out eventually

Good to know. I wanted a non ammonia one.

Very few people have black hair though. maybe less than 2%

@@sew_gal7340 But it looks black.

Natural black (1b) is literally one of the most common hair colours. Most ethicities, and even a lot of white people have it, me included. The only reason we feel otherwise is because white people (anglosaxon types) are still way overrepresented in media.

​​@@JustChillingOnTattoineThat's 100% true, but I feel like Brad was specifically talking about the darkest shade of black here. That inky, almost blue sort, that's so dark it's unnatural-looking (which is the point). That is pretty rare to have naturally; you'll mostly find it in Asian people, and even then that dark is still pretty rare for them. Natural black hair will almost always have some brown undertones.
