Meaning of dye job | Babel Free

Noun CEFR B2

Definitions

The act, or the result, of dyeing or redyeing the hair.

Examples

“Semi-permanent dye is meant to wash out eventually. To get it to come out faster than usual, you basically do the opposite of what they suggest to make the dye job last longer. The hot oil loosens the color pigment. Then the dandruff shampoo bonds with the dye and carries it down the drain when you rinse.”
“If a dye job results in a shade slightly too bright than what you anticipated, simply rectify the situation by massaging a few drops of olive oil into your hair. Cover your hair with a shower cap for half an hour, then shampoo your hair as normal.”
“If you use a home coloring kit and end up with a color you aren’t happy with, don’t try to fix the botched dye job yourself, you’ll only make it worse. Instead, consult a professional colorist, who has the expertise to fix it without further damaging your hair.”
