Fashion color
One famous woman once said that in life there comes a moment when everyone becomes a blonde. Even if it is gray hair, it can also be beautifully served. The Scandinavian blonde is a bright, bold, shading hair with white strands. It should be in harmony with the skin, not much different at the roots and in length.
All methods of modern coloring, combining two or three close tones, are suitable for this season 2018-2019. This is an ombre, a shatush, an imitation of strands burnt out in the sun. Clear boundaries between white areas and darker ones are unacceptable. Highlighting, coloring and contrasting coloring are a thing of the past, the trend is naturalness.
Beautiful natural Scandinavian blond: photo
The star of the catwalk Siri Tollerod shines with natural hair color, which looks great in spotlights, on a sunny day, and at dusk. Under artificial lighting, especially warm, her hair appears lemon. In the dark they glow with platinum. In the photo without a flash, she often looks ashen blonde. This is natural - because the white color takes on all the glare.
Sometimes the model makes the hair even brighter, as in the Chanel show. This girl goes any cold shades of blond. However, she can not be called a blonde from popular jokes. She is considered a person with a bright head and in a figurative understanding. Of course, many girls chose her as an object to follow.
Successful staining
There is very little hair like Siri Tollerod in nature. Therefore, most owners of a similar color resorted to staining. The result is different for everyone: a person is able to distinguish about ten million colors and nuances. Coloring compounds, with all the variety, there are not so many. Only three Nordic shades are widely known: ash, pearl and platinum.
In blondes, when tinted with violet tint to neutralize the yellow pigment, an ashy-sandy color, pink blond or light metal can be obtained. When staining overgrown roots, this color transition will be as natural as possible. If you apply a small percentage of the oxidant - from 1.5 to 3 - this staining in the Scandinavian blond can be applied monthly.
This color is very suitable for young women. It emphasizes the freshness of the skin, which can not be said about the ladies of age. Without wanting it, they may look gray. And only regrown roots will tell that the hair color is not natural. In this case, it is better to tint the gray hair - it can be very beautiful.
From brunette to blonde
With the help of strand extensions, you can change the image and quickly become an extreme blonde. In this case, a more gentle staining is required. It is best to entrust this procedure to the master, as a professional distinguishes far more colors than an ordinary person. He will be able to correctly determine the tone level of natural hair, make a prescription for dyeing and give recommendations on the use of caring compounds for home use.
But even without extension, it is possible to turn dark hair into blonde. As a rule, dark hair becomes red when lightened. To remove an undesirable shade, they are tinted - paint is applied with a small percentage of oxidant. So achieve a beautiful color "Scandinavian blond", which at the tips can be completely white.
The more dye that dark hair undergoes, the more pigment loses its fabric. Therefore, you can start dyeing with a short length and in a year bring the regrown hair to a completely natural deep Nordic color. Black roots will not spoil the picture, because they are also part of the cold gamut.
Colorist skill
With the help of modern materials you can achieve the color "Scandinavian blond" on any natural shades of hair. The level of tone that is achieved is from the ninth to twelfth. To make it clear what is at stake, it should be clarified that color distinguishes hair from a unit (black) to twelfth level (the color of white paper). Of course, it will be easier to stain blonde blondes - those with a natural tone level of ninth or tenth.
There are paints that can raise the level by five tones. The clarifying powder also acts. They resort to it to remove pigment in brunettes. According to the rules, first bleach the hair to a certain base. After several days, the hair is intensely nourished, since bleaching dries them and makes them too porous, they can not withstand tinting and begin to break off. The color of the hair will be very unpresentable - yellow or even reddish.
After a short period (a week, mostly), you can tint your hair by introducing artificial pigment. As a rule, three to four centimeters at the roots are stained with a tinting paint containing blue pigment. It neutralizes yellowness. A cloth of hair usually requires a dilution of color, so that blue strands do not work out. Dilute the paint with a 1.5% oxidant.
How to choose a beautiful shade depending on the natural level of hair, the video will tell.
Why does not get a cold shade
Many girls, after consulting with friends, buy the recommended paint in the store and try to get white hair. When yellowness is obtained, paint is blamed. However, not all so simple. If the hair was previously dyed, even if in one of the blondes, then they contain artificial pigment, which is washed out much more difficult than natural. Therefore, under equal conditions, the natural brown-haired woman will quickly turn into a cold blonde than the owner of the golden hair obtained by coloring. She will have to wash artificial pigment with subsequent tinting.
How former brunettes may look is shown in the photo. The hair of the Scandinavian blond has a different shade, but equally charming.
Customer reviews
When people see hair dye in a store, people usually pay attention to an advertising picture. Professionals don't do that. The fact is that everyone’s hair is different, they can already be dyed or gray. Depending on this, hairdressers-colorists pick up paint. Although the opinions of professionals and amateurs are the same in determining the color of Nordic blondes, they differ on the choice of the staining method.
The “Scandinavian blond” paint, the reviews of which are rather contradictory, showed itself in some cases as brightening to yellow, in others to red. Why did this incident happen? There is too obvious a discrepancy with advertising on the box. The oxidant, which is in the coloring cream, washes the natural pigment from the hair. The blue pigment is destroyed first, then yellow, and lastly red. Therefore, yellowness during lightening is the norm. Redness appears in natural reddish shades or in dark blond girls.
Staining occurs in two stages: lightening and tinting. Blond hair and bleached with a yellow tint allow dyeing in white with permanent Scandinavian blond hair dye. Dark brown hair or regrown roots of dark tones require lightening. So remove the natural pigment and after three days tint the hair with resistant paint. Suitable "Diamond 811" or "Garnier 111".
Conclusion
A good colorist is able to dye his hair in the desired cold shade of a blonde in one visit. It makes sense to resort to his services at the beginning of the image change. But after applying the correctly selected Scandinavian blond paint, you can maintain the color at home.
