How to dye dark hair?
It is better to entrust the coloring of dark hair to a specialist, since the transition from a dark to a lighter shade is not the easiest procedure, especially if as a result you need to achieve the maximum light tone. Toning alone is not enough; painting is carried out in two stages.
How to apply the hazelnut paint on dark hair:
- Bleaching. Since the development of hairdressing does not stand still, manufacturers produce more and more advanced products every year. Modern brighteners have the best and at the same time gentle action for hair. If a transition to 1 tone is required, 3% oxide is used, 2% to 6%, 3 to 9%, and so on. The higher the concentration of the oxidizing agent, the lighter will be the curls after bleaching. The oxidizing agent breaks down the natural pigment of the hair, which leads to a change in color to the bright side. A specially designed table determines the tone of hair on a scale of 1 to 10. In order to tint the hair in a lighter shade, it is necessary to bleach them to 6 or 7 levels. For example, if the natural color takes the 8th position, the hair is discolored by 1-2 tones.
- Toning. A dyeing composition with artificial pigment is applied to bleached hair and aged 20-40 minutes. The result will directly depend on the combination of the original color and dye. With the right selection of paint and the correct procedure for clarification, the result will be exactly the one that was planned.
How to dye blonde hair?
The technique of dyeing fair hair with hair dye “hazelnut” involves performing the procedure in one step. The complex of almost all dyes includes an oxidizing agent and the pigment itself, therefore, lightening and tinting occurs simultaneously. However, dyeing very light and highlighted hair still takes place in 2 stages.
- Pigment application. Blond hair does not have any pigment - they are hollow inside, if the strands are immediately painted in a nut color, they will turn green. Therefore, first of all they are given a golden hue.
- Toning. After the pigment has been applied and aged, it is washed off and tinted in the color of “hazelnut”. The result is a uniform staining of the strands.
Two-stage staining of blond hair should be carried out by a professional to avoid the appearance of unwanted pigment.
Using mixton
One of the most popular coloring agents is Mikston. It is used to enhance color or its correction.
In order to make the shade more expressive after coloring with hair dye “hair hazel”, a mikston is mixed with it in the volume of ¼ part of the total amount of dye. To enhance the saturation of the fire tides of the nut, a little golden and copper mixton is added to the paint.
If an unwanted pigment appears during coloring, it can be eliminated by mixing mutually absorbing shades, for example, yellow is removed with violet, and green with red pigment.
