Colored Hair Fading and Layering
Techniques
From
Your Beauty Advisor
It often happens when we experiment with different hair
colors that some just do not turn out the way we want.
When that happens it is helping to know how to fade hair
dye without seriously damaging your hair. The process of
fading can also be helpful when you would like to have
different types of layers in hair that reflect different shades
or highlights.

Fading and Layering
Both the fade process and the
colored layer process can be
similar. For layers the steps are a
bit more complicated because
you may want to section your
hair. With fading or layering you
need to be cautious about the
condition of your hair to avoid
damaging your hair too much.
Just the act of coloring hair alone
can be damaging enough, but
the additional work needed for
fading and layering can cause
breakage, thinning, and uneven
color.

Helpful Hints
When you are ready to take on the task of fading or layering your
color treated hair, try some of these hints to make the process
more effective:
 Chemical dye remover – the harshest way to fade hair dye is to
use a chemical treatment. The chemicals used in this process
are very damaging to your hair and can result in brittle hair,
split ends, and in extreme cases hair falling out. Do a test on a
small area first to determine if it would work for you. Follow
up with a deep conditioning treatment.
 Salt water – the natural minerals in salt water can help hair to
fade without a lot of harm. The process of swimming in salt
water also adds some nice layered colors and shades to your
hair that gives you the beach look.

 Layered color – you can carefully add layers of color to your hair.
First, section your hair based on the types of layers you want, starting
at the scalp or base of the head and working to the top layer. Starting
at the bottom layer, make sure all other layers are pulled away. Apply
the color or your choice and let it set. Ideally you should wait a day or
so before moving to the next layer, but if needed you can cover the
bottom layer with foil and apply the next color to the next layer.
 Spray on highlights – there are some products that provide a spray
bottle formula that helps to lighten hair. You can pick an area and
apply the spray, then allow a couple of hours for the fade to take
effect. This can work well for a few highlights but may not provide an
even color for a large area of hair.
 Frequent washing – one of the best ways to fade hair as quickly as
possible is to wash it multiple times in a day. You can use shampoos
that are clear gel or have tar, which will accelerate the fading process
but can be more harmful to your hair. Be sure to condition your hair
as much as possible to moisturize and reduce damage.

Overall Hair Care
Maintaining your hair can keep it looking great for a long time.
Healthy hair that is well kept can reduce the problems that
often occur with aging. Wash hair regularly with a safe
shampoo and condition it as much as possible to moisturize and
improve the strength of hair. Keep hair trimmed on a regular
basis to remove split ends and frayed strands.
When coloring your hair, be sure to avoid extreme changes that
you may regret. Find ways to gradually adjust your hair color to
a shade that you enjoy. Then keep that shade maintained for
long lasting beauty.
