Answer 2

course it damages your hair!

Dye is a really strong chemical

When you get older your hair wont be as nice as it was when u were younger. Unless you constantly keep on dying it.

Answer 3

It depends what type of dye you are using.

The more ammonia a dye has in it, the more harmful it is.

I have dyed my hair a lot of times, including severe bleaching (from dark brown to white blonde), and my hair has barely suffered. Each person's hair is different. Bleach does the most damage.

But I always think of it as, if it does go really wrong, and gets really damaged, it's only hair! It will grow out!

So yeah go for it, enjoy yourself!!

Answer 4

I also have very thick hair that grows quickly. I have been dying my hair since  I was 12years old and I am now 24. My hair is in great condition and I have used all types of dye (and colours) from having it done at the hairdressers to £3 dye from Camden market.

All I do is always use shampoo and conditioner for coloured hair.

Happy hair dying :)

Answer 5

yes it does damage ur hair alot actually

Answer 6

The dye is not damaging your hair.

I've been dying my hair since I was 12 and my hairs still in good condition and I'm ALWAYS dying it.

As long as you look after your hair then it's fine.

But when you bleach your hair, your hair does get a bit thinner cause I used to have really thick hair but now its just avergae due to all the dying.

Hope that helps

Answer 7

as long as you are not varying too far from your natural and are not processing too often (more than once every 6 weeks) its cool. keep it conditioned and trimmed and have fun

Answer 8

yes, it damages your hair without any doubt...At such an age i dont think u shud colour your hair. Go for temporary spray colours if u need it sometimes..Natualy colour is the best colour..Instead keep on changing your hair style instead of the colour..

Answer 9

its all fine to dye your hair lots and stuff but in the end you may regret it as it ruins the quality of your hair.

I went through a phase a while back of dying my hair lots and its fun but now i havnt been able to do anything with it for ages because im waiting for it to get back to its natural condition.

what you should consider doing is using natural dyes(hair henna) that wont damage your hair so much so it works out as a win win situation.

you can enjoy your youth and your hair!:]

Answer 11

It should be alright to dye ur hair the same colour a lot, but dont change it too often, as u can damage ur hair.

Also don't use cheap brands.

Answer 12

Nope, I don't think your damaging your hair.. I am 14 and I bleach my hair, and bleach is real bad for your hair and i've been bleaching my hair since I was about 12. Just use conditioner everytime you wash your hair and your hair should be back to its normal self. I also have really thick hair and dying products hasn't made it any thinner.
