By the way, our mothers and grandmothers were also painted in red shades, only in the old days they used henna - this natural preparation not only gives a rich shade, but also heals the curls, giving them shine and splendor.

If your hair naturally has red or red tones, or you just want to update the color of tinted strands, you can use the following mask to accentuate the color, enhance the shine and shine:

• 3 carrots;
• 2 spoons of honey;
• 3 tablespoons of plain yogurt;
• 1⁄2 cup cranberries
• shampoo.

Grind carrots with cranberries in a blender until a pasty mass is obtained, add honey with yogurt, mix thoroughly and distribute along the entire hair length with massaging movements, leave for 3-4 minutes, then rinse with water.

The mask is very effective - the fact is that carrots and cranberries contain high concentrations of beta-carotene, which is considered the main natural dye. When combined with the fatty components of yoghurt, they pass into the active phase, and honey, due to the small content of peroxide, fixes the result. Consequently, hair remains shiny and healthy, and the resulting color is pleasing with its intensity.

Sometimes the resulting shade is not what we would like, or such a bright tone is simply boring - then the owner of this unusual color is faced with a big problem. The fact is that getting rid of the red color is very difficult. Of course, dyeing your hair in dark brown or black shades will not be difficult, but if you want to change the shade of red, becoming light brown or blonde, then it will be quite difficult.

The fact is that red tones contain a lot of yellow and red pigments, and in light brown colors gray and blue prevail. If you dye your red hair with black dye, mixing shades can result in dirty gray, blue and even green tones. In addition, red pigments eat into the structure of hair scales harder than others, so it will be impossible to get rid of them the first time.
