There are two types of hair colourants: the permanent and the semi-permanent. If you have more than 25% grey hair, you may go in for a permanent colour to cover it. If you want your hair lightened, permanent colour is generally a ‘must’. Permanent hair colour grows out before it washes out. But, if you just want to experiment and try out something different, you could try a temporary rinse which adds highlights to darker shades. A temporary rinse lasts until your next shampoo. For a longer lasting colour, your stylist may use a semi-permanent hair colour, which lasts through six shampoos, at least. If the hair is fragile or not in good shape, a semi-permanent or an in-between colour generally will be gentler than permanent hair colour. The in-between type of colour is between the permanent and the semi-permanent and does not contain any ammonia. It lasts almost as long as the permanent colour i.e. through 25-30 shampoos. The most stressfulprocess on the hair is a double process in which hair is bleached first and then coloured.

Choose a colour close to your natural shade. Consider your skin tone and eye colour. Hair colour with warm tones like red, gold and auburn shades are more compatible with warm skin tones and brown eyes. Cool tone colours like lighter gold or ash is more suitable for the fair skinned people. Hair can be coloured as long as the hair fibre is strongand the scalp is not sensitive. If hair is spongy or breaks easily, use a semi-permanent hair colour formulated for damaged hair. Also, begin a rigorous conditioning programme immediately. Generally, touch-ups should be done every four to five weeks, depending on the growth of the hair.

The regulations governing the manufacture of eye cosmetics should, ideally, be very strict. Only those chemicals which will definitely not cause any damage to the eyes should be used. The preservatives is eye cosmetics must not only be safe, but also be strong enough to preserve the product.
Most instances of infection and injury to the eyes are a result of careless application and use of cosmetics rather than due to any of its ingredients. So it is important to follow simple rules of cleanliness and hygiene when using eye-cosmetics: wash your hands before touching your eyes; never borrow or lend any item of eye make-up; never use saliva or dirty water to moisten eye make-up.
Allergic reactions to eye make-up are, however, not uncommon: the solution to this problem is to stop using the eye-cosmetic which has caused the reaction. But, remember; that reactions around the eyes are not always due to eye-cosmetics, but may be due to the nail varnish or the hair dye you have used. A myth that really needs to be dispelled is that eye-cosmetics cause eyelashes to fall out. Like all body hair, your eyelashes grow, fall off and are replaced cyclically. It is just that while you are using eye-cosmetics you tend to become aware of this loss and you may wrongly blame the cosmetics.
