Various factors will decide whether you have to wait for a different colour or not. These include your hair condition, a colour product used previously and the colour you want next. Generally, it is advised to wait 4-6 weeks before changing hair colour to lower the risk of damage.

Give your hair time to recover and regain its natural moisture and oil, which gets lost while colouring it. You damage your hair if you colour it too soon; it becomes brittle, rough and easy to break.

Also, if you want a darker or lighter shade from the previous colour, wait for more time or take professional advice to apply the right colour evenly.

Do consult a professional stylist to know the best colour for you.
