I had an otoplasty done August 18th and I died my hair the day before, it’s semi permanent dye, my hair is bleached, the dye is removed by washing naturally after 2 weeks. I haven’t dyed my hair since the day before surgery but when can I dye it because picture day is tomorrow. But we have retakes in November.
