To Look more beautiful and attractive, hair color should match the skin color of a person because its hair that frame our face. The important things in this regards is that one should know that what color he belongs to.
When asked what color hair you to face, it is often difficult to answer, and even if you offer help and advice, much depends on your sense of color adviser. Nevertheless, there are several rules regarding skin tones, harmonies and contrasts that can help you choose the color nuances.
Cold or warm?
Differences in skin color are due to natural dyes hemoglobin, carotene, and subject to black-brown (melanin) and yellow-red (omelanin) pigments, which also determine the color of hair. Depending on whether the prevailing cold bluish hemoglobin or warm yellow-orange carotene, skin tone seems warm or cold. Women with freckles have a lot of yellow and red omelanina and therefore almost always warm skin tone. However, most women are not so easy to define midtone skin. To divide the color types into four groups according to the seasons: the color of “old” and “winter” – cold, and “spring-autumn” – warm. Try to bring a person to gold and silver foil. Cold type better than silver and gold warm.
If you already know your color line, we can proceed to the choice of hair color. To a cold complexion ashen suit and silver tones, as if powdered with brown, bluish shades of red, blue, black, purple – but golden blonde. To warm colors well: a golden-red nuances – such as copper and golden brown.
Harmony and contrast
In hair – whether they be light or dark – it is all about the number of black and brown melanin. The same thing happens with the skin. Therefore, the new hair color should be approached not only the complexion, but also the contrasts that exist between the nature of the skin and hair. The bright and dark colors are different: dark hair though, and makes the facial features sharper, but “absorb” bumps complexion. So when the dark-skinned dark-haired women are blondes, their faces often appear “blotchy”. The bright colors create a soft contours, so blonde, repainted in the “wrong” dark color, begin to look older. Advice on color available in salons, there are taken into account all the nuances. If you want to look as natural as possible with a new hair color, with strong contrasts between the skin and hair color change is acceptable to the three steps in the direction of the darker or lighter tones. Women with a softer contrasts better confine the two stages.
Light colors
The light color is still the most attractive for many women. Most of the natural light tone rather “ashen”, they often seem to be even darker than the warm, golden-orange and brown colors – and therefore less expressive. Not surprisingly, the holders of these “mouse” natural colors would be more exciting hair color – and often they tend to become that bright blonde.
Soft golden reflexes
Rinsing with chamomile blond hair makes even lighter – about the least, so thought we grandmothers. In fact, it is unfortunately not the case. Occurs only as follows: chamomile yellow pigments are deposited on the hair and give them a light golden reflections. Cinnamon, turmeric and hops have a similar effect and are therefore, along with chamomile constituents of vegetable dyes for light hair. These dyes give stronger reflexes than chamomile, and further nourish the hair and make them shiny. However, treatment with vegetable dyes for light hair – it’s an art, if you do not want poryzhet. Chemically treated, dyed or bleached for more than one nuance of hair is not always amenable to such funds. If you still want to do that, better to turn to a professional hairdresser. You will cost less, if you resort to coloring shampoos, rinses or washable toning, which also brings to hair golden reflexes. The more often you use them, the stronger the effect will be – but lighten your hair these funds can not be!
Clarification
Most women do not want to restrict golden reflexes. Give them a clear clarification. Perhaps the oldest method for this – burn in the sun when UV rays attack the pigments in wet hair and destroy them. It hurts your hair, but still not like the use of hydrogen peroxide – the only other way to targeted chemical cleavage of pigments. It is known that a radiant blonde with only one sun is impossible: lighting goes out of control, the individual strands. Can resort to yet another way: highlighting, in which the hair is lightened evenly along the lines of “solar pryadok.” He is very close to a natural blonde, not so much harm to the hair, as a full clarification, and the roots grow back not as striking.
Blonde on steps
How many pigments will be destroyed by lightening, by the concentration of hydrogen peroxide, as well as exposure time and the influence of heat. So to lighten the spray, which lightens with each application for a quarter of nuance (as in two nuances) can not be used in the sun. The warm lighting can proceed unchecked. This spray is suitable only for light or blond hair, because of the small proportion of hydrogen peroxide decomposed only in black and brown pigments, and darker hair get orange tide. Lightening intense toning (1 – 2 of nuance) also contain a little hydrogen peroxide, but they have more pigments to manage the result of staining. Honey tone of dark-blond he did not create, it would require “real” with 06.09 percent blondirovanie hydrogen peroxide. Higher concentrations (allowed – up to 12%), though accelerates the lightening, but more damaging your hair. So many barbers working with low concentrations (6%), but give them more time to impact.
Lighten or color
When blondirovanii with only one hydrogen peroxide degraded pigments, and that is, determines the color result. Often this is not the radiant blonde, but more or less strong yellow. Sometimes even have bleached hair green or orange tint, which was split because either too many or too few red and yellow pigments. These unwanted tones can be adjusted or subsequent staining, when the hair again penetrate brown-black or red pigment, or coloring rinse aligned with the complementary colors blue or violet. After lightening the hair immediately in need of treatment, which is slightly flatten the damaged layer flake. When you blondirovanii should handle only grown roots (once every 4-6 weeks), otherwise the hair is strongly affected. In order to eliminate hair lightening can be repainted in original color. Even more gently – highlights the roots, through which dark hair growing up is not as noticeable.
Dark colors
Mocha or Irish coffee – some of these names for black hair dye give you pleasure. Expressive than color, the better – in fact well-chosen color make shine and face. Dark hair naturally contain more pigment and consequently more sparkle. In addition, dark hair hides redness and uneven pigmentation of her. Therefore, a properly selected shade will not only make beautiful hair, but also significantly improve the appearance of skin!
Washable paint
Make hair darker is relatively easy – and not so bad as to lighten, as this adds new color pigments, and are not split by those that already exist. The result depends on the type of paint and the original color. Most are harmless to the hair – washable tinting with pigments that professionals call direct. They are positively charged and easily deposited on the negatively charged nature of the hair. For each of these pigments, wash rinse, the sixth – eighth wash off the paint there is nothing left. Only when heavily damaged, bleached or chemically curled hair pigments penetrate deep into the hair, and delayed longer. Be careful with the dark pigment in the bleached blond hair: brown as pigments consist of tiny red and green of larger particles, it may happen that the red component of the wash faster, and your hair will get a greenish tint. After staining the result is always a mixture of pigments and the original color tinting. You can change the color of hair for no more than two pitfalls. If you want to be a fiery brunette, naturally you should be at least brown hair.
Intensive toning
If you want to significantly change its color or if you are nervous about the fact that the dye is rapidly washed out of hair, you could try the intensive toning. Despite the name (sometimes referred to such dyes can tinted wash), it is a real hair color, though very soft. Intensive toning pigments contain no direct and oxidized dyes, which penetrate into the hair in unfinished form and it converted to a pigment with hydrogen peroxide. For this, the structure of hair is destroyed by an alkaline solution – though not as much as when using hair dye. The pigments are deposited close to the surface of the hair, so after 20-24 times still flushed. It is true, then the hair is part of the pigments, which on dark hair visible. In general, the coloring effect of transparency, and impact on the hair a more gentle than koloratsii, gray hair, colored only by 50%. To get rid of gray hair and return to its natural dark tones, you can use cream paint. Such creams with oxygen formed in the hair pigment, similar to natural. For more intense color, for significant jumps in color or full coverage of gray hair is needed koloratsiya.
Hair Coloring
In principle of hair coloring acts as an intense toning. True, the paints contain more pigment, hydrogen peroxide and another amine, which lifts the scales of the stratum corneum so that the pigments can penetrate deep into the hair. So inevitably damages the hair color and requires special care – it is best to use the funds for colored hair. When the roots of fatty treat only the hair and the tips! Since the paint is still in his hair long, grow back the roots to touch up no later than 6 weeks. When the paint is applied to the roots along partings, in 15-20 minutes of exposure divided comb through the entire length of hair, and after another 5 minutes, rinse.
Brown shades
From the iridescent mahogany effect dyeing through to the screaming orange – red color of many faces, but always visible. Becoming more and more women who would like to have red hair – in fact a catchy image always draws attention!
Toning
If you want to poryzhet, the choice of tools depends on the nuances of which you dream, and the original hair color. To become red hair, it is necessary to ensure that they have settled the red pigments. In contrast to the darker tones of earth colors in this case are not involved in the creation of a new color, and “absorb” red paint. Only light brown hair and poryzheyut by toning.
The same goes for painting with henna, the best known vegetable dye. Green powder from the leaves of henna contain red pigment for coloring the hair ends up on the surface and keep much better than the tinted with artificial pigments Henna remains on the hair for a long time. When touching up the roots can be regrown to handle all hair completely, it will only benefit them.
Henna, along with pigments and contains tannins, which nourish and strengthen hair and add shine. If you do not want to risk it, refer to the hairdresser, who specializes in painting with henna. For medium length hair coloring independent take a cup of henna powder, mixed with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and dilute with water. Or use other vegetable dye, strictly following the instructions. Apply the paint with a brush parted from roots to ends. Cover the head first film, then wrap heated towel and leave to work: blonde hair will need 15 minutes to become a bright orange color, whereas black hair and two hours will get only the red glow. Depending on the quality of henna obtained different results, so before the first use of dye only lock of the trial. Be careful: bleached, heavily damaged, gray or chemically curled hair henna does not fit.
Koloratsiya
Hair from chestnut to black-red hue for demand koloratsii with hydrogen peroxide. Last two functions: to build new pigments and at the same time – both at clarification – splits the natural pigments. And that is exactly what is required in order to red color in general has become visible. The more hydrogen peroxide and (or) the longer the exposure, the brighter the color will be: for the red tide on dark hair sufficiently intense toning, and to become bright red have to resort to paint, sometimes even with pre-lightening. After lightening her hair color often, but handle washable tint for bright red color, then resuming it. Since the strong red tones give only pigments direct effects. They are mixed with a red hair dye to get a bright color. But since this component is quickly washed out colors, red paint so quickly lose their radiating power. Special care for color-treated hair, this process slows down, and you can refresh ryzhinu toning. The strongest red nuances can be obtained, as a rule, a barber, which he mixes and dispenses pigments.
Colored strands
Only at the hairdresser can be refined colored strands of different tones – at the request of either natural or screaming. Milder effects – such as thin strands, natural tone that persists or thin strands of bleached hair dyed red – provide a good opportunity to try the red color and avoid stress at the roots grow back, which in this case, almost glaring.
