Despite the fact that many beauty salons offer their professional services, many still prefer to carry out such a procedure as hair coloring at home. Sometimes it’s really convenient, for example, if you get home late, and in the morning you need to be in a new look.
Most people who decide to
lighten their hair on their own use dye to bleach their hair. It is quite effective, but expensive. There is a more economical and simple way. However
, not everyone knows
how to bleach hair with hydrogen peroxide , although the technology is the simplest. To clarify, you will need peroxide itself, more precisely, its 3% solution, and a spray gun for uniform and easy application of liquid.
Before dyeing your hair, you need to prepare it: wash it with shampoo, use conditioner and dry it naturally, because the bleaching procedure itself sufficiently overdries the hair. After the hair has dried, we distribute them on two sides and alternately separate the strand after strand, processing with a solution from a spray bottle. How to partially bleach hair
with hydrogen peroxide ? If you plan to lighten only the upper strands, we process only them, trying not to fall on the lower ones, which can be protected with ordinary cellophane film. You can put on a hat for highlighting - through it, the strands to be dyed are pulled out with an ordinary knitting hook.
If you need to lighten all the hair, then you need to go all over your head, lock by lock. After finishing the treatment, leave the solution on the hair for about thirty minutes. After this time, hydrogen peroxide must be washed off with cool water, after which a deeply moisturizing conditioner or hair mask should be applied. Again, it is better to dry your hair naturally, since the reaction of hydrogen peroxide can still continue, and the effect of heat from a hair dryer can strengthen it and destroy the hair structure.
After the hair has dried, the result of lightening will be visible. You need to understand that the darker the hair, the harder it is to lighten. Light shades of hair may be discolored the first time, while dark hair will have to be lightened again after two weeks, and possibly even after two weeks if the result is not noticeable. More often it’s not worth it, since discoloring the hair with hydrogen peroxide in one day means completely destroying their structure - they will become dry and brittle, they will not comb well, fit and can generally stop growing.
Within two weeks, the hair will gradually come to its senses, and it will be possible to lighten with minimal negative impact, which is very important, since the lightening procedure itself is quite harmful to the structure of the hair.
Understanding how to bleach hair with hydrogen peroxide is quite simple, but this does not mean that you will immediately get the desired shade. Both in beauty salons and at home, to obtain the desired color after lightening, it is necessary to use cream paint or tint mousse, since this procedure is only a preparatory step for the main tone to lie evenly across all hair.
