What it is?
Bronzing on dark hair is a multi-color and combined dyeing of strands, which opens up opportunities for obtaining a beautiful overflow of several shades close to the natural color. When coloring brondes, it is necessary to correctly select the color palette of paints, taking into account the skin tone, eye color and curls. This multicolor technique is in great demand all over the world and has several varieties, thanks to which every fashionista can easily change her image, complementing it with individuality. The term "bronzing" means a soft transition between light and dark shades.
The technology for performing such painting is complex, but with a certain experience, any girl can cope with it at home. The principle of dyeing is that the hair on the crown retains its natural color, and light highlights are added to the inner strands, which become noticeable when walking or in a light wind. Thanks to this feature, the curls acquire an unusual beauty and do not have a sharp transition to blond. Bronding, like any other type of hair dyeing, has its pros and cons.
The main advantages of the procedure include:

- the ability to create a modern look without a radical change in hair color, combining many dark and light shades;
- perfect combination with all types of hairstyles, dyeing can be performed on both short and medium, long hair;
- simplicity in styling curls, since the shade in the parietal zone remains natural.
As for the shortcomings, there are not many of them.
- This procedure is complex, and without experience in painting, it is difficult to cope with it at home. Most often, booking is done in beauty salons by specialists. If a girl wants to save money and paints on her own, then the first time it may not work. During booking, it is important to be able to withstand the contrast of colors, which is not possible for beginners.
- This type of staining is not recommended for women who have the first gray hair in the crown area, since this area will have to be tinted periodically.
Despite all these shortcomings, most of the fair sex who have dark curls prefer bronzing.
Unlike coloring and highlighting, the iridescent effect on the hair lasts up to three months, after which it needs to be renewed. Bronzing looks especially gorgeous on dark curly hair, light highlights on them perfectly emphasize the beauty of curls.

Choice of shade
Today, bronzing is considered the most popular technique for dyeing dark hair, since the toning effect is more noticeable against their background. For brunettes with black hair, experts recommend repainting the curls in a chestnut tone, and then performing any of the suitable painting techniques according to the classical scheme. If the black color is “artificial”, then it must be “washed off” before bronzing and only then should the paint be applied in copper, cognac and chestnut shades. For owners of chestnut curls, dyes of honey and coffee tones are ideal; if you wish, you can also experiment with an ash and cognac shade.
In order to achieve the maximum effect from bronzing, stylists recommend choosing the right color palette, taking into account the girl's color type. So, for example, beauties with a summer color type should give preference to cold and saturated colors, more contrasting cold tones are suitable for a winter color type, unsaturated colors for spring ones, and warm saturated shades for autumn ones. In addition, when choosing colors, you should pay attention to the details of the image (accessories, clothes). Chestnut copper, coffee, nutty and chocolate tones are excellent choices for dark-haired people.
Dyeing technology

It is best to do home bronzing on strands of medium length, since in this case it will be easier to do it. The bronzing technology is distinguished by one main feature - first, the basis for toning is prepared. Therefore, the curls at the first stage of the procedure are lightened, then they are covered with the selected shades (coffee, brown, chocolate or chestnut). The selected paint colors should be in the same palette and differ only by a few tones.
In some cases, the dyeing technology allows incomplete lightening of the strand, covering only their ends. The result is an unusual shine effect on the natural background of the hair, which lasts for a long time and does not lose its attractiveness after hair regrowth. If the procedure is performed independently for the first time, then the following instructions should be followed.

- At the second stage, the dye is mixed in separate containers, the strands are divided into separate zones. For this, two diagonal partings are made in the back of the head. Supra should be applied generously to the ends of the hair. Then each strand is individually wrapped in foil.
- At the third stage, it is necessary to make one horizontal parting in the back of the head, highlighting strands no more than 4 cm wide. Brightening powder is applied to them (V-shaped) and wrapped in foil.
- At the fourth stage, a side parting with two strands of 4 cm wide is created, a lightening composition is also applied to them in a V-shape. The procedure is repeated in the same way on the back of the head.
- The procedure ends with painting the crown, in the area of which a wide strand with a triangular base is formed. You need to retreat no more than 5 cm from the roots and distribute the dye evenly. The holding time of the composition depends on the desired effect, but, as a rule, it does not exceed 50 minutes. Then the paint is washed off with water and the hair is washed with shampoo.
The above instructions are suitable for dyeing strands of any length. During the booking process, experts also recommend taking into account the following nuances.
