Peculiarities
Korean paints are popular all over the world. This is explained by the fact that companies engaged in the development and production of coloring preparations prioritize themselves with a reverent attitude towards the health of the hair and scalp. Today, paints from Korean manufacturers are considered one of the most gentle preparations for coloring. In addition, they have a caring effect.
The composition of preparations for hair from Korea does not contain aggressive chemicals that destroy the hair structure. They do not contain ammonia, these compounds, along with coloring, nourish the hair with useful substances. In this case, one of the components of the dyes is henna, and therefore the staining procedure will also have an antibacterial effect.
The pigments of paints do not penetrate into the hair structure, but envelop it.

Due to the fact that the paint does not penetrate into the hair, it is possible to protect it from destruction and loss of moisture. It does not become porous, but receives a kind of protective pigmented film that protects it from exposure to ultraviolet rays and other negative factors.Coloring cosmetics for hair with natural ingredients have been highly appreciated by both qualified stylists and the clients of the salons themselves, as well as ordinary customers.
The compositions are characterized by an abundance of mineral oils, they are rich in plant extracts and extracts, often proteins, vitamins E and A. In fact, these are therapeutic and prophylactic compositions or antioxidants. They stimulate blood flow in the upper layers of the scalp and also normalize the sebaceous glands. In addition, the use of paint allows you to relieve itching, exfoliation of the dermis with dandruff.

The presence of natural ingredients and the desire to improve the condition of the scalp and hair raises the rating of Korean paints in comparison with any formulations of world leaders in this segment. In addition, these agents do not in any way affect the subsequent dyeing with other dye compositions. However, these drugs also have their drawbacks. For example, given that these are some kind of laminating drugs, they quickly tarnish, and therefore it would be wrong to call them persistent.
Some of them stay on the strands for no more than two weeks. On the one hand, this is good, because you can update the shade or completely change it. However, on the other hand, for those who are not used to dyeing their hair often, such a nuance will seem like a clear drawback. In addition, sometimes among the paints, products of inadequate quality come across.
If you approach the issue of choice irresponsibly, you can buy an option that harms your hair.

Someone does not like the poor assortment of natural shades in the manufacturers' lines. Other varieties are too imprinted on the skin, and therefore not easy to wash off. Also, the disadvantages include the fact that some options, declared as dyes without ammonia, can give off a persistent chemical odor. It is worth considering the fact that in some cases, the paint may simply not take on the hair.
Another disadvantage is the complexity of the purchase: it will have to be done via the Internet. The list of minuses is completed by the cost of Korean paint: in our money, it costs from 750 rubles and more. Considering that she needs regular adjustments, such care is not cheap.

How do they differ from other manufacturers?
Korean hair dyes are distinguished by a variety of properties. For example, unlike Russian and American counterparts, they help stimulate hair growth, and also fight hair loss. Few paint in other countries can boast of this. In this case, the compositions can have the most diverse form of release. For example, they can be not only creamy - in the assortment of companies you can find products in the form of foam, mousse, and also powder.
These paints smell good, and the dyeing kits include more than gloves and the paint itself. In addition, they have a container for staining, a mask, a brush, and a caring balm.
Another advantage, in comparison with the products of other countries, is the possibility of recycling.If you need very little product at a time, you can leave it until re-painting.

However, in fairness, it is worth noting: not all products for hair dyeing among Koreans are harmless. Without knowing the language, we cannot separate the preparations containing alcohol and we will not understand which of them are labeled "without ammonia". The language barrier does not allow you to learn some of the nuances of using such paints, but it is precisely the observance of the rules of technology that allows you to achieve a lasting result and uniform color.
Korean powder paint starts to oxidize after opening. Therefore, it cannot be stored for a long time: under the influence of oxygen, the structure of the dye begins to change. As for wounds on the skin, then, as with the use of other paints, they are a contraindication to staining. Regarding the dyeing itself, you need to remember: it is done on clean and dried hair.

It is especially categorically contraindicated to apply the drug to hair with varnish or a product that contains metal salts. You also need to consider: Koreans do not produce paint for everything at once. It is completely unsuitable for dyeing eyelashes, eyebrows, mustaches, beards. There are special means for this - they cannot be confused.
