With the help of a caramel shade, you can completely change the color of your hair or update its ends using the balayage or ombre technique. The main thing in this case is to choose the right shade and a specialist who will help to achieve the desired color.
When performing complex hair dyeing technology at home, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the following master class: "How to make a caramel balayage without leaving home." The master class is designed for the average length of light brown hair. If they are dark, then preliminary lightening is necessary.
- All hair must be divided into four main sections. Clips should be used to secure the hair. It is necessary to evenly highlight two zones at the temples: parietal and occipital.
- Then you should dilute the coloring agent according to the instructions, not forgetting about safety precautions.Gloves and a cape must be used.
- Next, you should start dyeing your hair from the occipital zone. Thin strands (about 1.5 cm) should be dyed with the mixture, not reaching the middle of the hair. To get a smooth transition from the native shade to caramel with a brush and paint, you need to create a tick on your hair, as it were. It is not necessary to wrap the strands in film or foil, although it is recommended for beginners to do this.
- The same should be done with all the other separated hair zones. Leave the strands for the time indicated on the paint box. Then rinse everything off. If possible, you need to use caramel toner and only then shampoo and balm. In the end, you need to dry the curls with a hairdryer, and, if desired, put them on brushing.

Colored hair care

- It is very important to use a balm or hair conditioner after shampooing. Once a week, it is advisable to make a mask based on the state of the hair, especially if the curls are long. We recommend paying attention to masks with a tinted effect, such as the Italian brand Collistar.
