I've always thought that the store-bought dye my dad used looked unnatural and just plain bad. You know the stuff. Most brands force you to choose between 5-10 different shades on a box, and none of them really match your natural color. You're always settling for hair that looks lighter or darker than your actual color. Just like dad, my hair has started to go gray, but I was determined to find a different solution. Did a little surfing, and I found a ton of different brands, but there was one option that stood out - Colorsmith. As it turns out, there's a whole new way to do it: custom hair color that's made for my unique, natural color.
You know the boxed dye that you find at the grocery store? That's made somewhere in a factory, then sits on a shelf for who knows how long, before you bring it home for application. Since premade color isn't made to match your natural hair, there's no way to know if it will look natural until after you've already put it on your head. Picture the guy with the hair that looks like he slapped shoe polish all over his head. Yikes. I definitely didn't want that to be me, so I decided to try custom home hair color.
Overall, it was easy to say goodbye to premade hair color. Turns out, Colorsmith will craft a custom color that matches my EXACT natural shade! No more being forced to choose between 10 shades, and looking nothing like the guy on the box. Their Custom Color Case costs a little more than store-bought premade dye, but the difference is a color that was made only for me and no one else. It's just as easy to apply, but looks WAY better than my dad's old dye.
The best part: crafting my color couldn't have been easier. I took their online quiz and even got to talk with my personal colorist (a really nice guy named Joseph), who made sure my color was exactly what I wanted. Colorsmith even gives me the freedom to gradually cover my grays over time so that I'm not shocking anyone with the shoe-polish look. Totally natural, and it couldn't be easier.
Now, I get consistent results with custom color shipped to my door whenever I need a touch-up. It's a no-brainer, and the application is so easy it's unbelievable. Custom gives me control over my hair color that I want, and if I ever need an adjustment, I can call my colorist and have it done before my next color ships. One of the best parts? I never smell that hair-dye smell that you usually get with premade dyes. I have to say that after trying custom hair color and now knowing the difference, I'm a new man. Colorsmith has a deal right now to get your first order for $23.95, that's 20% off, plus free shipping. Check it out, and I bet you'll never go back to your old box again.
