Highlighting on light blond hair

Any woman dreams of finding her own unique and sophisticated style. Much depends on the hairstyle and hair color. Sometimes, in order to diversify your everyday style, it is enough to make highlights. It looks especially harmonious on light blond hair.

The technique of highlighting individual strands with a different color was created by a hairdresser from France Jacques Dessange. Highlighting became fashionable at lightning speed and gained widespread popularity among both women and men. This staining technique can be classified as universal. It is used on hair of various shades and has no age restrictions.

For owners of blond hair, this dyeing technique is especially suitable due to the following benefits:

• bleached strands add volume to the hairstyle, especially when the hair can hardly be called chic;
• highlighted hair perfectly mask gray hairs;
• this dyeing technique does not require constant updating and correction, because overgrown roots are not too noticeable on light blond hair;
• correctly selected strands for lightening are able to visually correct the imperfections in the proportions of the face;
• Highlighting gives freshness and playfulness to any hairstyle, it visibly "rejuvenates" any lady;
• not all hair is affected by the paint, but only individual curls;
• suitable for hair of any length and structure.

Despite all the "pluses" of highlighting, it still has drawbacks, namely:

• it is extremely problematic to make such staining on your own; you will need the services of a professional hairdresser and a sufficient "supply" of free time;
• the first time it is not always possible to achieve the desired color, you may need toning balms and shampoos;
• highlighting is not performed on hair after a perm and dyed with henna;
• after this dyeing, the hair structure "suffers", therefore special care (nutrition and moisturizing) is required afterwards.

Beautiful ladies, whose hair color is light blond, are referred to as "summer" women. It is the "sunny" nymphs for the highlighting procedure that are suitable for cold and neutral shades: ashy, silver, creamy and ivory. And also pink coloring looks great on blond hair. In addition, to give their image a piquant "zest" women with light blond hair make a choice in favor of chocolate or copper shades, which looks bold and sophisticated.

This popular hair coloring technique involves several types.

This technique is performed on individual strands from root to tip. She looks perfect on "summer" women. Typically, a hairdresser uses several shades (two to four). Classic coloring, looks stylish and sophisticated.

The essence of this technique is as follows: there is a "whitening" of individual curls, which creates the effect of hair burnt out in the sultry sun. French highlighting is referred to as gentle coloring, since with it the masters give preference to dyes that do not contain ammonia. Thus, the hair is not exposed to chemical attack. The hair looks voluminous and well-groomed. The main "highlight" of this technique is that one color smoothly "passes" into another.

This is a very popular and stylish hair highlight. With it, the roots remain natural in color, and the tips are lightened. This color gives fine hair the desired volume and looks very fashionable. The contrast of shades looks just stunning.

This technique involves partial staining of only the front curls (near the face). This gentle method is suitable for owners of thin hair, since the effect of coloring agents is minimal. At the same time, zonal highlighting perfectly refreshes the hairstyle. Dyeing multiple strands is very refreshing to any look.

Such highlighting is created using two contrasting shades: light and dark. Masters use no more than 4 shades in their work. This coloring looks very nice and bright. Contrasting color combination is fashionable and stylish.

The dyeing technique depends on the length of the hair and the highlighting option. The update of the image of enchantresses with light brown hair is performed in several ways.

• Hat with holes. They put it on the client's head, and the master gently pulls out the strands for dyeing with a fine comb or crochet. This technique is quite simple to perform and is ideal for lightening curls from roots to ends.
• Foil (or thermal paper). The hairdresser dyes the curl and isolates it from the rest of the hair with small pieces of foil. Thus, the master has the opportunity to work with several shades at once.
• Public method. It is used by experienced professionals who paint a single strand, and remove the remaining paint with a special brush. This method is quite easy to perform if the master has some experience.

Any hair coloring in a beauty salon implies monetary costs, so the highlighting procedure can be done at home. You will need the following tools and accessories:

• a hat with holes;
• paint (several tones lighter than natural tones);
• metal hook;
• small container and a set of brushes;
• comb;
• oxide (3%);
• shampoo and hair balm;

The staining process includes the following steps:

1. we comb our hair, cover our shoulders with a towel and put on a special hat, and crochet the strands (up to the whole head);
2. prepare a clarifier in a plastic container and put on gloves;
3. we apply paint to the elongated strands with a brush;
4. we stand for 30-40 minutes and carefully remove the cap;
5. wash your head with shampoo and apply a balm or nourishing mask;
6. to eliminate unwanted "yellowness" we apply a toning balm or a special shampoo (silver or violet) to the highlighted hair.
