Salon or home coloring?
Beautiful blond hair color is quite difficult to obtain at home. In most cases, hair needs pre-clarification or even an acid rinse. Without experience in hairdressing, it is sometimes impossible to carry out these procedures. Often, girls purchase formulations from manufacturers of professional hair cosmetics and try to carry out bleaching and dyeing procedures on their own, at home, according to the instructions. Of course, in most cases, this approach ends with the hair being hopelessly spoiled and you have to do a short haircut.
It’s better to pick up the master for reviews on the Internet, and turn to him. For good masters, the queue can reach several weeks. But if you really want to get a luxurious blond shade and keep your hair healthy, then it’s worth the wait.
Common staining errors
Common mistakes of beginners in colorization and hairdressing, as a result of which it is not possible to get a noble blond shade:
- incorrect concentration of oxidizing agent;
- The level of tone depth is not calculated;
- the composition is applied to the hair unevenly;
- the composition was mixed in the wrong proportion;
- the hair was previously dyed with a permanent dye and an acid wash was not carried out (in this case, a light brown shade may simply not take).
Aftercare for colored hair
If you do not take care of the hair dyed in light brown color, then very quickly they will become a deplorable sight. Particularly careful care requires a light brown shade, since the purple pigment (the presence of which ensures ash) is washed off very quickly, even if you use a professional shampoo with acidic pH.
For hair care after dyeing in an ashy shade, shampoo and masks with the so-called "anti-yellow" effect should be purchased. Such funds retain a noble shade and prevent the appearance of unwanted yellowness and redhead. You will have to constantly use these care products until you decide to change the ashen shade to any other.
During bleaching and tinting, the ends of the hair suffer most. They begin to flake, dry. To avoid having to cut them, use special indelible concentrates for the ends of the hair after each shampoo. Almost every brand of professional hair cosmetics has similar products. Choose for yourself a tool that is suitable for the cost and the effect on the hair.
