You're about to learn the proper way to use foil on your hair. After that you'll learn about all the cool tricks and different colouring schemes you can do after all the foil is put in place.

Is Using Aluminum Foil Possible?

The use of standard aluminum foil is perfectly safe for your hair.  Just remember to make sure that your choice of hair dye that you will be using to colour your hair mentions that it is compatible with aluminum foil.  If it isn't, there should be a warning sign on the back of the box stating specifically not to use the product with aluminum foil.  If it doesn't, you should be all set to go!  If in some case you're not able to use aluminum foil, you could always opt in for wax paper.  But that's a story for another time.  Right now you're going to learn how to use reliable aluminum foil to do the trick.

What Thickness Of Aluminum Foil Should You Use?

Aluminum foil Dubai comes in different sizes and thickness.  The best way to ensure your highlights go according to plan is to find foil that is thick enough and tough enough to withstand the chemicals that you'll be using on your hair.  The best way to make sure your foil holds up is to fold the aluminum foil about 3 centimeters down on the end that will make contact with the roots of your hair.  This keeps the end of the aluminum foil strong and will keep the dye safely contained in the foil.

The Best Way To Cut The Foil

Before starting, you should cut the foil into smaller sized strips according to the length of hair you're going to colour. Most of the time the strips should be cut to around 10–13 centimeters wide and 20–30 cm long. For really long hair procedures, you can use two separate pieces of foil to cover the length of the hair, instead of folding the foil like we've previously stated.

You should generally use foil that around twice the length of the hair you wish to colour, but the hair will need to fit inside the foil at all costs. But make sure not to bend the hair, because it might cause gaps in hair colour.
