Why You Shouldn’t Cut Or Color Your Own Hair During The COVID-19 Pandemic

With nonessential businesses closing their doors due to the Coronavirus pandemic, many Treasure Valley residents are freaking out about their hair. In fact, many people are turning to Google and YouTube to learn how to cut or color on their own. While we’ve all felt the urge to try something new, it’s never a good idea to take on the task of a hair professional yourself. Why? Without the proper training and experience, you may end up with a botched hair job that can’t be fixed any time soon. 

Reasons To Never Cut Or Color Your Own Hair

With so many of us facing the unknown at this point, it’s best to leave your hair alone during the pandemic and trust the professionals at unDONE Salon with our express services for the time being.

The Wrong Tools

Most people don’t have professional-level tools at home. This includes scissors, dyes, and more. In fact, those who try to cut or color their hair own their own often reach for household scissors and grocery store dyes. This can lead to choppy, discolored hair. While you may not be able to maintain your specific look at home right now, it’s best to keep your hair looking healthy. You don’t want to be stuck at home with a botched at-home cut or color.  

You Won’t Get The Results You Want

Even if you feel confident, you’re still not a professional. This means you won’t get the results you want. Instead, you’re more than likely going to end up with a disastrous ‘do when you attempt to cut or color on your own. In fact, those who attempt to cut their hair, end up making it too short and horribly uneven. You don’t want to end up looking like you did when your mother cut your hair as a little kid! The same goes for DIY hair color that can leave you with splotchy, uneven patches or worse. 

You’ll Need To Have Your Hair Professionally Fixed

If you’re thinking about cutting or coloring your hair at home, think again. You’re more than likely going to end up with chopped, uneven hair that needs to be professionally fixed. This means that when you actually go to your Boise hair salon, you’ll end up paying more to make it look decent again. If you can’t get to the salon, it’s best to just wait it out and go back to your normal routine when it’s safe to go out again. 

The Moral of the Story

The best thing you can do for your hair right now is to take good care of it at home and let it go back to its natural state until you are able to visit your Boise hair salon. In the time being, if you have any questions about maintaining your current style, contact one of our talented stylists for recommendations. Together we will get through this, and we look forward to seeing you all soon at unDONE!
