It is difficult today to find a woman who did not dye her hair. Still, changing the color of the hair, the whole image also changes. In addition, you can easily choose the color that will be dyed hair once again: fortunately, store shelves are littered with hair dyes from different manufacturers. There has long been debate about whether hair dyeing can be done. Some stubbornly defend the position that it is harmful not only to the hair itself, but also to the whole body. Others, on the contrary, do not see anything wrong with this, and some even tend to believe that the paint can strengthen the hair and give it an extra shine. Be that as it may, but those wishing to dye their hair less.
Usually, in order to change hair color, you need to go to the hairdresser and pay a considerable amount of money for all the work. If there is no time, no money, then you can dye your hair without much work at home. Hair coloring at home is available to every woman, the main thing is to be able to do it correctly. How exactly, and speech will go further.
Choose paint
First you need to decide on the future color. If you are painting for the first time, then do not immediately conduct experiments such as repainting white hair into black. It is not known whether such dramatic changes will suit you. Try to choose the color that really suits you. Pay attention to the durability of the paint: the longer it will not wash off, the better.
Preparation of all necessary
Dyeing hair at home, begin with the preparation of everything you need, namely: paint, a plastic comb, several hairpins, a brush, gloves and a container (ceramic or porcelain) in which you will breed the paint. Ideally, the day before painting, you should do an allergy test, especially when you are painting for the first time. How to conduct an allergy test is described in detail in the instructions that came with the paint. I’ll pay attention to the fact that you still need a piece of some fabric or an old towel so that with their help you can cover your shoulders and not get dirty during painting.
Working process
Put on gloves. Uncomfortable, gigantic gloves are usually sold with paint . You can buy medical gloves of the size you need in advance. Following the instructions, carefully mix the paint ingredients in the container.
Go to the mirror, so you will see everything that you do.
Hair coloring at home can be done in two ways. The first (personally tested) is faster, but not quite right. It is suitable only for dyeing short or not very long hair. Take a small amount of paint with your hand (do not remove gloves) and apply it to your hair (see the instructions for whether to wash them beforehand). So you should gradually distribute all the paint from the container evenly over the head. Then take a comb and gently comb everything. After that, with massaging movements, once again distribute the dye on the hair and make sure that there are no stained areas. It is not difficult to dye thin and rare hair in this way, but if the hair is thick, it is better not to risk it and use the following method.
Fix hair with hairpins, leaving only the part that you will dye. It is best to start dyeing hair at home from below, gradually pulling out a small part of the hair from under the hairpins. Take a small lock of hair and apply a small amount of paint on it with a brush. Spread it all the way. Then take a new lock, paint it, etc. This method is more complicated, since painting yourself is very inconvenient, and your hand quickly gets tired. Nevertheless, you can get used to it. You can even try to make hair highlighting at home, however, only if your hand is already well packed. I know several girls who never go to the hairdresser, and highlighting is done so that any specialist would be envious.
By the way, pay attention to the fact that hair coloring at home can be carried out by your girlfriend. Why not? The main thing is that she knows how to do it. And if she also dyes, then you can dye her hair. As a result, none of you will have to go to the hairdresser every month just to dye your hair.
