UNCOVERED: Changing hair color - Caught on Camera

The desire to experiment is understandable. A few years ago, one survey revealed that a third of women feel their hair negatively affects their mood.

Additionally, 50% of respondents reported being unhappy with their hair half the time, while 70% said they feel self-conscious when dissatisfied with their hairstyle.

To learn more about the process, we got in touch with Christina Butcher, the woman behind Hair Romance, a website dedicated entirely to our precious accessory.

"Hair has the power to transform and a new hairstyle can make you look like a different person," she told Bored Panda.

"A successful hair transformation should make you feel more like yourself! The right tone will bring out your best features. It might feel a shock when you first look in the mirror, but you’ll feel like your best self with the right hair transformation."

So, good hair is transformative and affects emotional health—our self-worth, self-confidence, how we interact with people, our productivity, what we believe about ourselves, our resilience... When you think about it, everything really is impacted when we aren’t happy with our hair.

According to Christina, the cool thing about dying our hair is that it can start to feel thicker. Even "adding in highlights can add depth and dimension to your hair," she said.

"Subtle hair changes can be just as important as a dramatic change. The details can make all the difference."

If you're conscious of it, dyeing shouldn't destroy your hair either.

"You can change your hair gradually to limit any damage to it," Christina of Hair Romance said. "A gloss or toner can also add shine to your hair and improve your hair’s manageability too."

In fact, "Often the way that you style your hair can cause more damage than dye, for example, using hot styling tools daily."

"Newer treatments like K18 are also incredible at restoring and maintaining the quality of your hair so you can have more fun with your hair!" she added.

One poll from the UK found that 1 in 20 women will spend more than $62,500 during their lifetime on coloring their hair.

Results from the survey of 2,000 respondents revealed that they spent at least $125 visiting a salon every six-and-a-half weeks for a color change.

One in four said they would spend $23,000 over their lifetime—or the equivalent of $365 annually—altering the natural color of their hair.

Blonde was the color most likely to be chosen, with 44 percent of women going for highlights or something similar.

The study also found that the average respondent would go through 6 different hairstyles in their lifetime and 4 varieties of color.

Just 18 percent of those polled maintained the same hair color their entire life.

"Hair should be fun and changing your hairstyle is easy. Don’t be afraid to switch it up!" Christina Butcher said.

However, you don't need to rush it. Allow yourself to tame the thought. The average respondent of the aforementioned poll waited until they were 20 years old before experimenting with hair dye.

Overall, 55 percent said they felt better about themselves with a new hair color, and 8 in 10 admitted their confidence levels were directly affected by the condition of their hair.

So these pictures don't lie!
