This is my natural hair color

I'm 15 years old.I just dyed my hair a week ago. I loved it very much, but after a week the color just faded away. I shower every night. That may be the reason why but i want to stay clean and my hair gets oily fast. I
've dyed my hair many times before. My natural hair color is black. A while back when i dyed it a light brown it is still here and been here over a year. It makes me sad and i can't go on like this. Also, my hair is very very dry. I am scared to dye my hair now because i feel my hair might start falling out. Ive heard that if you dye your'e hair too much it will start ti fall out.

Leave it for the Pros

One reason your color may be fading out so quickly is that the length of your hair may have been subjected to repeated colorings using a permanent color that wasn't confined to just the roots. That'll leave your hair porous and give it that "dry" feeling. Your hair won't fall out, but it certainly may be compromised to the point of breaking off along the shaft. At 15, it might be best to leave any coloring in the hands of a pro who will help you maintain a healthy strong shiny head of hair without damage.
