Light blond: types and features of coloring
Almost all the fair sex at some point in their lives want to radically change their appearance and experiment with coloring. The dream of many dark-haired girls is to become a stunning blonde. Manufacturers create simply unimaginably huge palettes of the entire spectrum of light shades, the most fashionable of which is blond blond.
Peculiarities
Now, at the height of fashion, everything is extravagant, so many girls completely repaint their native hair color, emphasize it with different shades and tints, adding brightness and showiness to the overall image.
Fair-haired young ladies can easily turn into blondes in a couple of procedures, sometimes even excluding discoloration.
It is not so easy for brown-haired women and brunettes to become blonde - mandatory lightening is required. And leaving after staining will also not be easy: it is constantly necessary to tint the roots, otherwise the image will become sloppy.
We take into account the appearance
It is worth noting that this shade will be easy to take if you have light hair, and dark curls will need to pre-bleach several tones. In order to understand exactly whether the final image will suit you, it is important to know your color type.
Light blond has variations in semitones and sounds different for different manufacturers.
So, the brand "Fitokosmetik" presents its color under the name "light blond", and "Loreal" has a whole palette of "Shining blondes", which includes "light blond", "light blond ash" and others.
"Spring" and "Autumn"
Light-haired blond on such young ladies will look very natural, emphasizing the beauty of velvet tanned skin and highlighting the eyes, especially if they are brown or bright green. Pay attention to Hollywood star Jennifer Aniston. She has emerald eyes and peach skin and absolutely adores this shade of hair, showing it off in all its glory on the red carpet. Her case is a perfect example of a fair-haired blonde on such a color type of girls.
"Summer" and "Winter"
Light-skinned ladies with light eyes and brown eyes can safely dye a cold light-haired blonde if they want to achieve a contrasting effect. If your native color is dark, then the shade will look especially impressive on you, throwing off several years at once and refreshing your facial features. Blondes, repainted in this shade, will look more solid and collected, it will add novelty and restraint to the image at the same time.
And if you do not plan to completely dye your hair, but only want to change the color of individual strands, then try new dyeing methods: balayage, ombre or contrasting ends.
You can change the shade of the bangs or add highlights. Partial coloring is now very fashionable and allows you to add chic to the image without a radical revolution.
Subtleties of coloring
The process of dyeing hair in blond blond consists of several important stages.
- After carefully studying the instructions, prepare the dye. If you need to, carry out bleaching the day before, preferably from a professional, because even with the existing experience it is better not to risk bleaching your hair, because there is a risk of damaging its structure, as a result of which the hairstyle will look bad.
- If you have long hair, get a couple of packs.
- Divide your hair into zones and start coloring using a special brush. Start at the roots and work your way down the length of your hair. The tips are colored last.
- To enhance the effect, put on a cellophane cap and wrap your head in a towel.
- Withstand the allotted time, wash off the paint and be sure to apply the balm. Never ignore the last point. Conditioning balm has a beneficial effect on the hair, strengthens the roots and gives shine after a destructive dyeing procedure.
Many brands (Revlon, Loreal, Shwarzkopf, etc.) already have lightening paints, and almost all lines come without ammonia.
But a significant disadvantage is that the dye on the hair does not last more than a month with all the strengthening efforts, and for brunettes the option is generally useless - such dye will not be taken on their hair at all.
If you are blonde and a temporary styling update is just what you are looking for, try a temporary tint. It will allow you to freshen up the color or give it an original shade of light brown blond for a short time. For this, there are special tonics and tint shampoos that last only a couple of weeks.
They are very easy to use: apply, take the time advised by the manufacturer, and rinse off until the water is clear.
Recommendations
- Do an allergy test before coloring to avoid any unpleasant surprises. To do this, apply the mixture to the elbow to test how the skin reacts to the emulsion.
- Dye your hair in zones. First, the back of the head, and only then move towards the temples, and not vice versa.
- Places that the dye can stain (face, ears), lubricate with vegetable oil or cream.
- If your paint contains ammonia, try to get close to the roots slightly to avoid scalp burns.
- For a bright color, wrap the dyed hair with cellophane to create a steam effect, to reveal the scales of the hair, thus allowing it to "take in" the coloring pigment.
- Do not wait any longer than the time specified by the paint manufacturer.
- If you have bleached your hair, transfer the dyeing to the next day so that it can "move away from the shock."
