Anyone coloring their hair before the wedding?

I am, since I had cut all my hair off -- and it's growing back quite nicely

I decided not to color it until the wedding to keep it healthy so it could grow as long as possible.

Question: how soon before the wedding should I get it done? 2 weeks? a month?
I dont want any black roots coming showing

Re: Anyone coloring their hair before the wedding?

doing mine 2.5 weeks before the wedding, in case the salon screws it up they have plenty of time to fix it.

I would say two weeks is a perfect amount of time.

Re: Anyone coloring their hair before the wedding?

yes 2 weeks or even 1. I was blonde for years & years, I let my hair grow out to my natural color, light brown, and right before the wedding i am getting a tiny bit of highlights. My hair is so healthy now I love it.

Re: Anyone coloring their hair before the wedding?

I was supposed to get my hair colored today! I have to cancel because there is no way I could leave the house with my virus

So I have to figure out what to do. I would say a week before.

I'm going to do mine about a week beforehand so that it can settle in.

Re: Anyone coloring their hair before the wedding?

I get my hair highlighted every 5-6 months. Roots usually begin to show after the first month, so I plan on getting a highlighting job about 2 weeks before the wedding.

Re: Anyone coloring their hair before the wedding?

I am actually trying to go back to my natural color. I haven't gotten highlights since August. Its so hard though. I might just get them done again- we'll see.

Re: Anyone coloring their hair before the wedding?

I have my hair highlighted (blond) right now, but am going to go back to my natural haircolor (I may put in some red highlights too. I'm not sure yet). But I'm going to get the blond hightlights for the wedding. Probably 1 week before.
