With the possibility of so many things going wrong and the horror stories that you've heard/read about running through your mind, it's easy to see why some people can find the whole task a little bit unnerving.

The best way to avoid any disasters is to have a plan. Work out what you want to gain from a new color such as:
Enhance your natural color
Highlight a feature
Go for a complete color change
Cover grey hairs
Copy a celebrity color
and go from there. The best plan of attack is to find the color that you want by looking through magazines, or better yet, trying the color on your own photo.
Work Out What You Want To Do
It may sound too simple and easy, but correctly washing your hair and making sure you're using the right shampoo and conditioner does make a difference. When you use the right shampoo and conditioner it will look after your hair and your scalp and help with the styling process.

Not only will you be guaranteed of a professional color and finish, you'll also avoid any first time mistakes, such as ending up with the wrong shade or staining your skin, furniture and clothes. Your stylist will also be able to let you know if the color will suit you and what can be done if it doesn't (such as slighting changing the tone or mixing it up with a range of other colors). Your stylist will also be able to advise the best way to apply the color (permanent tint, semi-permanent etc) to suit your hair type and lifestyle.
