what will this do to the colour of the dye on my hair?
i am buying from the manic panic selection of dyes, and i think i'll be buying new rose
but i'm going spain the upcoming saturday, and would like to make sure chlorine won't ruin my hair before i buy the dye and use it
thank you πŸ™‚

Sorry, but both chlorine and direct sunshine can cause these type of hair dyes to fade much faster than usual.  If you can manage to wait until after your holiday your dye should last much longer, but if you def want this colour whilst your away you will probably need to re-do it once you get back home if not before.  Also just a side note, if the dye has been newly applied then both swimming/water and extra sweating when in hot places can cause the dyes to run more than normal until all excess dye has been removed through washing/shampooing the hair.  It normally takes a couple of washes to remove most excess dye so you are best being careful around water or wearing light coloured clothes etc during this time.

If you want to swim, it might be best to try and keep your head out of the water πŸ™‚

It won't actually damage the hair though
