Modern scientists note that the number of natural blondes is steadily declining. Over the past half century, the number of owners of fair hair has decreased almost threefold. But there is also good news: today any representative of the fair sex can radically change the color of her hair. A new generation of hair colors not only does not harm the hair, but also cares for them. As marketing surveys show, every fifth resident of Russia dreams of having blonde hair.
Do you also think that blondes are more attractive and youthful? Then it's time to think about changing the image.
First, decide which color suits you best. The simplest way to try on a new look is a wig. Use several different shades at once to see which one suits you best. This is best done without makeup and in natural light. This is the only way to catch all the nuances of color.
If you discard the subtleties, the shades of the blonde are divided into two categories: cold (ash, platinum) and warm (golden). Knowing your color type, you can easily determine the colors necessary for staining.
The second, no less important question is how to achieve the desired results without harming the hair. Of course, you can turn from a blonde into a brunette in one coloring. There is no particular trick in this. Peroxide 33%, a teaspoon of soda, the same amount of ammonia and forty minutes of time. After such an execution, even stiff, burning black hair will turn into wheat-colored curls. However, one must be very courageous in order to subject her hair to such a barbaric test. Therefore, the transformation from a dark-haired young lady into a golden-haired nymph is better divided into several stages.
If you have naturally light hair color, becoming a blonde will be easy. However, if you prefer not to resort to the help of a specialist, you will have to remember a few rules.
It is known that blond hair is naturally thin enough. To prevent staining from harming them, choose dyes that do not contain ammonia. For example, Casting Gloss cream from Loreal.
Before painting, be sure to conduct an allergy test. Put the mixture on the bend of the elbow and leave for thirty minutes.
Hairdressers recommend dyeing unwashed hair, because in this case the scalp is protected naturally. If you follow this rule, irritation does not threaten you.
Colorists in beauty salons are well aware that facial hair is slightly lighter than everyone else. Therefore, in order to achieve an even tone, they begin to apply the mixture from the back of the head, and use two shades when staining.
Do not use metal products for mixing and dyeing. The result of the oxidation reaction may well be a greenish shade of hair.
When staining overgrown roots, you need to be very careful with the rest of the hair. Otherwise, the border may look unnatural. Professional colorists in this case use a small amount of ordinary shampoo. To begin with, the composition is applied to the hair roots. After the required time, a mixture of shampoo and dye is applied to the entire head with massage movements. Thus, excess color is washed off and the hue is perfectly homogeneous.
Young girls resort to the staining process for the sake of experiment. For older women, the more serious task is to correct age-related changes.
It is believed that blond hair makes a lady visually younger. However, with age, the skin of most of us becomes paler. Therefore, when lightening your hair, which is called white hair, you run the risk of looking like a moth in a swoon.
According to stylists, beauties of Balzac age are more likely to face natural shades. You dream to have blonde hair, choose natural light brown tones. The gray hair in them is also not very noticeable, and the hairstyle looks as if it has never been dyed.
It should be noted that long blonde hair looks great not only in styling, but also loose. However, it’s better for young girls to wear an a la mermaid hairstyle. For ladies over forty, a short haircut on fair hair is preferable. Remember the eternal blondes Meg Ryan or Sharon Stone, who constantly return from a hairstyle long to shoulders to perky, short, milled locks.
