Are you looking to colour your hair and want to try out a different hair dye brand that’s more gentle to your hair and wont cause it to break or be super dry?…
Well, I recommend Clairol’s Nice ‘n Easy Colour Blend Foam hair dye!
I love colouring my locs so I’m always on the look-out for a good hair colouring brand. The ones that I’ve used in the past are Dark & Lovely and Inecto. Both hair dyes have been fine but after a while they do tend to leave my locs very dry and my pet-peeve is when the hair dye drips down your forehead, neck and splatters everywhere – aghhh!
So while I was on YouTube I came across this vlogger, Loc’dGlory, and she was talking about colouring locs etc. and she mentioned that it’s best to go to a salon to get your hair dyed but if you have to do it at home she recommends the Clairol brand.
I was a bit skeptical at first because I’ve never seen a face of a black woman on this hair colour brand, so I was a little hesitant to try it out at first. But then I thought, hair is hair, so it should work just as fine on my hair too! Luckily, I was with my sister when we both wanted to colour our hair and we landed by the hair products aisle at Clicks… I then somehow managed to “convince” her to buy it and and try it out. Well, it worked perfectly on her; so a week later I dyed my locs too!
I must say I’m impressed with this product. Its been a week now since I’ve coloured my hair and it doesn’t feel dry at all! I also think doing a protein treatment before & after colouring the locs also helped. I used Organic Root Stimulator’s Olive Oil Hair Masque for the protein treatment.
What I also like about this brand is that non-drip foam! You mix everything in the squeeze bottle, which is provided in the box, shake, and then squeeze the bottle. The foam then appears and you apply that all over your head. It was very easy and quick! And there was a lot of dye too.

Clairol Nice ‘n Easy Colour Blend Foam is a bit pricier at R75.00 but I think its worth it
Do you have any hair colouring brands you swear by and can recommend?
Also thinking of dying my dreads bt Eish, I’m quite nervous about dat, will try it out, when I’m brave enough lol..
Hi Zu. The best way is to go either a shade lighterr or darker than your natural hair colour. Then the change won’t be too much. I’ve gone darker this time around
