How To Ace The Fading Process
Our Semi-Permanent dyes fade out in about 10-15 washes, but the beautiful part is that each wash causes a slight fade, slowly changing your color and giving you a subtly different look every time you wash your hair. In this way, you can enjoy not only the bright, vivid version of your shade in the beginning but also begin to rock its lighter tones (which are extremely in trend!) once your color starts fading out.
Warm shades such as our Rubra Red and Raggiana Orange fade to give coppery warm tones, shimmery in the sun. So, in effect, whatever your base hair level is, whether blonde or brown, our warm shades leave a coppery warm tint upon fading.
On the other hand, our cooler shades such as Rudolphi Blue and Mayeri Green require a higher hair level (8 to 10) to deposit brightly and fade to give pastels or even chic ashy tones in some cases. The yellow tones on your blonde base are neutralized by blues and violets and leave an ashy tone upon fading.
Now that you know how your chosen shade will fade out, this knowledge can come in handy while trying to deposit a new shade once your old one has faded out. You must remember that whichever new shade you try to deposit, will add up with the old faded tone and give a unique result. For instance, depositing Mayeri Green on faded Rudolphi Blue will give an aqua shade- largely a green with some hints of blue. On the other hand, depositing Mayeri Green on faded Red will neutralize the shade to a brown. For more information on how to layer shades correctly, check out our blog on color layering.

Learn moreIs Your Hair Aging Faster Than You? Let’s Stop That with Paradyes Timeless Tint
Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought, “Wait, when did these greys get here?” If you feel like your hair is aging faster than you are, you’re not alone. Premature greying has become a common concern for many, whether it's due to genetics, stress, or environmental factors. But before you panic and reach for harsh chemical dyes, let’s talk about a gentler, healthier solution—Paradyes Timeless Hair Tints. What Makes Your Hair Look Older? The most obvious sign of hair aging is premature greying and whitening. While it’s natural for hair to lose its pigment over time, many young people today experience early greying due to a variety of factors. Why is Premature Greying More Common Now? Scientific studies suggest that oxidative stress, nutritional deficiencies, and lifestyle factors are accelerating premature greying. The primary cause of greying is the loss of melanin, the pigment responsible for hair color. When melanin production slows down, hair turns grey or white. Here are some key reasons why younger people today are seeing greys earlier: Nutritional Deficiencies: Lack of essential vitamins and minerals like Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, Iron, Copper, and Zinc has been linked to premature greying. B12 deficiency, in particular, affects the production of red blood cells, impacting hair pigmentation. Oxidative Stress: Free radicals in the body damage cells, including those responsible for melanin production. This is often caused by poor diet, pollution, and stress. Excessive Processed Foods & Sugar: Diets high in refined sugars and unhealthy fats can increase inflammation and oxidative damage, leading to early greying. Genetics: If premature greying runs in your family, there’s a higher chance you’ll experience it as well. Lifestyle & Stress: Chronic stress has been scientifically linked to hair greying. High cortisol levels can impact melanin-producing cells, leading to white or grey strands appearing sooner than expected. Smoking & Pollution: Exposure to smoke, pollution, and toxins accelerates oxidative stress, which can contribute to the loss of pigment in hair. By improving your diet with foods rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, you can slow down the greying process. Including foods like nuts, leafy greens, dairy, eggs, and fish can help maintain melanin production and keep your hair looking youthful for longer.

Learn moreThe Lazy Girl’s Guide to Keeping Your Hair Color Fresh
You must have spent hours (and probably a questionable amount of money) dyeing your hair the perfect shade, only for it to start fading faster than your motivation to work out? Tragic. But don’t worry, consider this your ultimate cheat sheet for keeping your hair color looking salon-fresh without the constant touch-ups. Step 1: Stop Washing Your Hair Like It’s a Crime Scene Why it matters: Newsflash: your shampoo is probably betraying you. Most regular shampoos come with sulfates, a.k.a. tiny villains that strip your color and leave your hair drier than a bad Tinder conversation. Your Savior: Paradyes Color Care Shampoo. It’s sulfate-free, gentle, and actually respects your color choices. How to use it without ruining everything: Wash your hair 2-3 times a week (yes, dry shampoo exists for a reason). Use cool water (yes, I know it’s less fun, but hot water = color fade city). Be gentle—your hair isn’t a dirty dish. Step 2: Conditioner Is Not Optional Why it matters: Colored hair is needy. It craves hydration, and skipping conditioner is like ghosting your hair when it needs you the most. Your Best Bet: Paradyes Color Care Conditioner, because hydrated hair = happy, vibrant hair. How to do it right: Apply from mid-lengths to ends (unless you want greasy roots, and nobody wants that). Let it sit for 3-5 minutes so your hair can soak up all the goodness. If you’re really serious about maintaining your color, go for Paradyes Anti-Fade Conditioner in Wine, Purple, or Brown—your color will thank you. Step 3: Deep Conditioning—Because Your Hair Deserves a Spa Day Why it matters: Regular conditioning is cute, but deep conditioning is essential if you don’t want your hair feeling like straw. What You Need: Paradyes Color Care Hair Butter, a.k.a. the hair mask that saves you from disaster. How to use it without making a mess: Slather it on damp hair (generously, because more is more). Let it sit for 15-20 minutes while you scroll through Instagram. Rinse it out and enjoy hair that actually feels alive again. Step 4: Hair Serum—Because Frizz Isn’t a Look Why it matters: You know what’s not cute? Dry, frizzy hair that makes your freshly dyed color look dull. The Fix: Paradyes Color Care Serum, a little bottle of shine, smoothness, and UV protection. How to use it like a pro: Take a few drops, rub between your palms (don’t just dump it all on your scalp). Apply to mid-lengths and ends. Watch your hair transform from frizzy to fabulous in seconds. Step 5: Hair Perfume—Because Your Hair Should Smell as Good as It Looks Why it matters: Pollution, sweat, and styling tools can make your hair smell… not great. Hair perfume is the underrated hero of your routine. What to Spritz: Paradyes Tea Hair Perfumes in Blue Lotus, Red Rooibos, or Green Camellia, because basic hair mists are over. How to use it without overdoing it: A light spritz on dry hair is all you need (don’t turn yourself into a walking air freshener). Flip your hair and walk into the world like you own it. Final Thoughts: Keep Your Hair as Vibrant as Your Personality If you’ve made it this far, congrats—you officially care about your hair. Following these steps will keep your color looking salon-fresh, and your strands feeling soft, shiny, and Instagram-ready. Pro Tip: Take a cute selfie, tag @birdsofparadyes, and show off that post-care glow! Now go forth and slay! 🎨✨
