Not so long ago, brown curls were considered gray, dull and unprepossessing. Therefore, most girls painted them in various brighter and more saturated colors. As a result, there were practically no young ladies left, but there were a lot of red, brunettes and blondes.
But in the past few years, fashion has dictated new trends to us. Now girls with an “artificial” or non-standard shade of curls are considered “backward from life”. Especially if their age has already greatly jumped over the so-called teenage. But beautiful people with natural hair color (shades of blond now at the peak of popularity) have every right to be called trendy beauties.
But what if the girl still wants to change her image, and, for example, dye her hair in a trendy ash-blond hair color? What you need to know in order not to be mistaken with the choice of tone? And is it possible to dye the hair in the coveted color at home?
Find out in the article!
What is light brown color?
When one of our friends mentions blondes, we represent a girl with blonde or almost white hair. About brown-haired - with brown curls. If in the conversation the narrative comes down to brunettes, we understand that we are talking about a young lady with black hair. And, accordingly, pronouncing the phrase “red-haired beast”, everyone thinks of a girl with dark orange curls. But to figure out which shade is hidden behind the blond hair color, it just does not work out. After all, what, in essence, is this tone?
So, on the Internet you can meet the point of view that the studied hair color includes a palette of shades from white to black. Perhaps that is why many girls call this color mouse? But stylists give a more complete explanation. According to them, the light brown color is a direct relative of the shade of the blond. But if in the latter there is a golden tint, then in the former it is completely absent. In addition, the blond differs from the tones of the blond palette by the presence of a gray pigment, which in some cases really makes the hair very similar to the coat of a nondescript rodent.
Why not dye brown hair?
In most cases, girls and even older women do not like their natural color, if it is fair-haired, because it seems to young ladies uninteresting. As a result, they run, not taking the road to the nearest store, in order to purchase a coloring agent with any other shade. And this is a big mistake.
Shades of light brown hair color can be very original and elegant, because there are a huge number of them. With proper care, they “open up”, become more extravagant, bright or tender. In addition, as stylists note, different types of coloring look best on light brown curls. For example, the now fashionable ombre, shatusha, balayazh, baseball and even ordinary highlighting will significantly transform not only the “mouse” color, but the whole image of a beautiful person.
Thus, if you take care of your curls correctly, and the modern beauty industry allows you to do this, you will be able to remain a natural beauty without thinking about completely changing the color of your hair.
