00:00:05:42
Okay, so when I want to dye my hair, I first think about which color I want.
00:00:05:42
00:00:12:20
For example, if I want to have red hair I have to think about whether light red or dark red would suit me better.
00:00:12:20
00:00:14:18
Or if maybe blond would be a better fit.
00:00:14:18
00:00:14:38
Look/
00:00:14:38
00:00:19:31
For example, it’ll be summer soon. You get a tan and with that, blond hair looks even brighter and shinier. That looks pretty. That fits.
00:00:19:31
00:00:22:37
So I’d rather buy blond dye. I have thought about it and I think that’ll look better.
00:00:22:37
00:00:24:40
Then I go to a store to buy it.
00:00:24:40
00:00:31:20
I go to DM or Rossmann or Schlecker [names of German drug store chains] and compare where the dye is cheaper or which brands they have and which is the best.
00:00:31:20
00:00:34:30
For example there is L-O-R-E-A-L or, what else is there?
00:00:34:30
00:00:37:00
Wait, Schwarz, no.
00:00:37:00
00:00:38:14
Schwarzpunkt? Is it called Schwarzpunkt?
00:00:38:14
00:00:39:33
Schwarzkopf.
00:00:39:33
00:00:40:05
[Towards M] Ah, that’s right. How embarrassing. Yes, Schwarzkopf.
00:00:40:05
00:00:41:35
00:00:41:35
00:00:43:37
So you know your way around ladies’ cosmetics, good!
00:00:43:37
00:00:44:37
[Towards B] He knows his way around ladies’ cosmetics.
00:00:44:37
00:00:45:49
Maybe he secretly uses that.
00:00:45:49
00:00:46:08
00:00:46:08
00:00:47:47
Probably he picked it up watching his wife.
00:00:47:47
00:00:52:27
So that would be Schwarzkopf. Then there also is G-A-R-N-I-E-R.
00:00:52:27
00:00:54:49
That brand is widely known. Well, doesn’t matter.
00:00:54:49
00:00:57:10
So I choose the best of these.
00:00:57:10
00:01:01:06
I also ask my friends and get their opinion on which dye is good for the hair and what would suit me best.
00:01:01:06
00:01:05:18
Another question is whether I want a dye that lasts and is strong, or a tint - and which is which, because I’m not always sure of that.
00:01:05:18
00:01:10:39
I have to think about that beforehand, whether the coloring should last or I’d rather use a tint that will wash out after about eight shampoos.
00:01:10:39
00:01:12:39
But I prefer a dye, it lasts, that’s better.
00:01:12:39
00:01:15:34
With a tint you have to do it again and again, that’s a lot of work and effort.
00:01:15:34
00:01:16:19
00:01:16:19
00:01:23:41
Okay, then I go to a store. Or, I could just look at a brochure. If they have it on A-N [intends German word Angebot; offer], on sale, then I could get that.
00:01:23:41
00:01:28:43
So, I go to a store, decide on a color and buy the dye. Blond, for example.
00:01:28:43
00:01:33:23
For light blond, I get two boxes. For example, if you have long hair, you need two boxes, for short hair, one.
00:01:33:23
00:01:37:23
For thick hair, you also better take two boxes. If you have thick or long hair, you need two. That’s how it is.
00:01:37:23
00:01:39:44
You have to accept that and pay for it. It’s more expensive but you just have to pay more.
00:01:39:44
00:01:43:14
When I have paid, I take the boxes and also the receipt with me, just to be safe.
00:01:43:14
00:01:46:21
If you take the receipt with you, you can return or exchange what you bought if something is wrong with it. So I take the receipt with me just to be on the safe side.
00:01:46:21
00:01:47:19
That’s not a thing.
00:01:47:19
00:01:51:29
Whatever, it doesn’t matter. I’m not got do that anyway, but, whatever.
00:01:51:29
00:01:53:04
I’m just talking nonsense. Anyway.
00:01:53:04
00:01:55:20
So, I bag everything and go home. Okay.
00:01:55:20
00:01:58:01
Then I open the box and take everything out.
00:01:58:01
00:02:02:13
Next, I read the instructions to see what I need to do.
00:02:02:13
00:02:07:31
I also check if everything is there, that is gloves, the dye and so on. And the stuff you use after you have applied the dye.
00:02:07:31
00:02:08:20
That’s the Frischepflege [lit. freshness care, probably means hair conditioner].
00:02:08:20
00:02:09:39
You apply it to your hair after dyeing it. During the first wash, you put in the product and leave it in for two minutes, then rinse it off.
00:02:09:39
00:02:11:49
00:02:11:49
00:02:13:22
It’s very sticky when you touch it.
00:02:13:22
00:02:18:28
When I have read the instructions and everything is there, it’s good. If something is missing, I have to exchange the product. But most of the time, everything is fine.
00:02:18:28
00:02:20:28
I have never experienced that, but just to be on the safe side.
00:02:20:28
00:02:23:11
When I have read the instructions, then/
00:02:23:11
00:02:29:34
Then I change into a spare shirt, for dying my hair.
00:02:29:34
00:02:33:38
I take out my earrings and take my glasses off. Of course I take my glasses off.
00:02:33:38
00:02:38:05
Then I go dye my hair. I open the bottle. Typically it’s a tall, narrow bottle. First, I remove the lid.
00:02:38:05
00:02:45:05
Then I take the tube containing the dye. I unscrew it and have to use the spike on top of the lid to pierce the tube seal open. Then I squeeze the content of the tube into the bottle.
00:02:45:05
00:02:51:23
When everything is out of the tube, I close the bottle and shake it vigorously.
00:02:51:23
00:02:57:48
Then I go to the bathroom and apply the dye. First, I make a center parting and apply the dye there. From there, I spread it out evenly all throughout my hair.
00:02:57:48
00:03:01:22
After I apply the dye, I leave it in for, um, 20 minutes/
00:03:01:22
00:03:02:38
Half an hour, right? Yes.
00:03:02:38
00:03:03:16
About 20 minutes.
00:03:03:16
00:03:03:44
00:03:03:44
00:03:06:49
Yes, about half an hour or 20 minutes. That’s how long the dye stays in and I have to wait.
00:03:06:49
00:03:13:44
When the time is up, I rinse out the dye. I have to rinse it out completely, until the water is clear.
00:03:13:44
00:03:18:09
When the dye is all rinsed out, I take the little container, the deep conditioner, and work it into my hair.
00:03:18:09
00:03:22:03
You have to leave it on for two minutes. I always leave it on longer, just to be safe, because I want to treat my hair well.
00:03:22:03
00:03:26:00
After five minutes, I rinse out the conditioner as well and then I wash my hair with regular shampoo.
00:03:26:00
00:03:30:07
When everything is rinsed out, I blow-dry my hair and am done.
00:03:30:07
00:03:31:31
Then my hair is freshly dyed and I look great.
00:03:31:31
00:03:32:37
Then you look radiant.
00:03:32:37
00:03:32:44
[Towards A] So next you’ll go to a tanning booth then?
00:03:32:44
00:03:34:23
00:03:34:23
00:03:34:41
00:03:34:41
00:03:36:22
No.
00:03:36:22
00:03:37:19
Good.
