Temporary staining
This method is ideal for those who have never dyed the ends in bright colors. In this case, formulations are used that have a temporary effect and are washed out over time.
This method is characterized by the use of powder coloring compositions, including food dyes. It has the desired effect and does not spoil the hair.

It should be noted that this method is better for girls with blond hair. On darker strands, food coloring may not be noticeable. In this case, you can use tint compositions. They are applied to strands, kept for a certain time and washed off under running water. Such compositions will brightly color and light brown hair.
Radical painting
For burning brunettes, this method of painting is suitable, since color pigments are less noticeable on dark strands.

The advantages of this method are color saturation and long-lasting results. Cons - harm to hair. In case of unsuccessful staining, you will have to wash out the paint with special compounds or lighten and paint again.
To carry out staining at home, you will have to prepare special tools (hairpins, brushes, elastic bands, gloves, a hairdresser's cape, foil, a container for mixing paint, if necessary) and a coloring composition.
Dyeing process:
- put on gloves;
