It is suggested that you should consult with your stylist and ask questions like whether this color will suit your skin tone or hair texture and how it will appear once the shades get lighter. There are even chances that over bleached hair can make you a way older than you are. So, choose the shade carefully and always consult your stylist.

If you are the one who frequently uses dry shampoo  then, just make sure you wash off your hair a night before you want to get your hair colored.
