These semi-permanent hair dye and permanent hair color options will take your locks from color treated hair with lackluster color to a soft, shiny, and vibrant colored hair. But before you shop, here's what you need to know about box hair dye. 

What's the difference between permanent hair color and semi-permanent hair color?

As the name implies, permanent hair color is designed to last. You should be able to keep your color until your roots grow in, showing your natural hair. 

Semi-permanent hair color is designed to fade over time. It can fade faster depending on how often you wash your hair and how well you protect your new hair color with colored hair products. 

Permanent hair dye is stronger than semi-permanent. It's designed to cover gray hair completely, and can lighten or darken your hair dramatically depending on the shade. If you're worried about making a hair color mistake, semi-permanent hair dye is easier to remove.
