Ash hair color for short hair: the choice of shade and the stages of dyeing

Regardless of age, every woman should always look beautiful, well-groomed, elegant and unique. In order to achieve these parameters, you need to follow the latest fashion trends and not be afraid to change your style. To completely change the appearance, it is not enough just to change clothes and do unusual make-up.

Hair coloring will help to emphasize the individuality of the fairer sex. In the arsenal of stylists there is a huge palette of both natural and artificially created color shades. Over the past few years, ash has remained a popular and demanded color, which is not suitable for all fashionistas, therefore before dyeing your hair, you should definitely consult with specialists.

Ash color is a combination of blue, purple and green shades. The high popularity of this palette is due to the fact that it is very difficult to achieve such a color solution, and natural hair of this tone practically does not exist. This color scheme is in good harmony with short hair cuts, black arrows, bright makeup and rich lipsticks.

Stylists recommend using the ash palette for representatives of the cold color type, as well as for persons with the following characteristics:

• light brown hair and gray, blue and green eyes;
• chestnut locks, peach skin, green and olive eyes;
• dark skin with blue and brown eyes;
• fair skin and brown eyes.

For dyeing black, dark chocolate and deep brown hair color, it is better to turn to professional masters. A home procedure may not work. Before choosing this color, you need to consider the length and shape of the haircut.

The shade looks impressive and fashionable on a very short pixie bob, bob and sesson. For longer hair, it is better to dye only curls, as well as use decorative braiding and false tails. Often customers choose dyeing in ombre style, connecting rod and balayazh. Sometimes, to create the desired image, it is enough just to paint the temple area or perfectly straight ends. It is strictly forbidden to change the shade of the hair after a perm. This procedure can have a negative effect on the structure of the hair and hair follicles.

Before choosing this tone, you must carefully study its positive and negative sides. Advantages:

• effective highlighting of gray strands;

The process of dyeing hair in an ash shade is very complex and painstaking, requiring practical skills and theoretical knowledge. In order to get the planned hair color without purple spots, it is necessary to bleach the curls before painting.

For a richer and deeper master color mix several shades of ash, and only after obtaining the desired tone, the composition is applied to the hair. Distribution of funds to the strands must be started from the occipital zone. Special attention should be paid to the bangs. The dye composition should be on the head for the amount of time indicated in the instructions. It is strictly forbidden to independently increase or decrease these parameters.
