For washing, chemicals or folk remedies are used. The result will largely depend on the structural structure of the hair, the color tone, the quality of the dye, the color of its natural strands and, of course, the washing method. If you want to wash off the dye of light shades, then you can do with a surface wash, and if you have to make a lighter dark range of dyes, you will have to use professional preparations.

• Chemical components with prolonged contact with the hair follicles can destroy them, and over time you will notice that your strands have noticeably thinned due to the fact that the hair began to actively fall out.
• Under the influence of preparations for washing, the strands often become dry and brittle. This is due to the fact that the structure of the hair shaft is disrupted. Unfortunately, this side effect when washing is always inevitable and natural.

After washing, hair of any type and structure requires very thorough restorative care, which will consist in applying masks, moisturizers, and nourishing oils.

The essence of pickling, that is, removing the dye from the strands, is that coloring pigments are removed from the porous structure of the hair shaft. The main task in this case is the maximum possible return to the hair color, which was before the time of their dyeing.

Coloring pigments are removed only from the surface layers of the hair shaft, without affecting its inner layers. This gentle wash will help to change the shade of the strands to a lighter one, but only by 1-2 tones. Only acidic components act as active substances, without the use of ammonia and hydrogen peroxide.

This is a professional remover for paint of any shade with the use of chemicals containing ammonia or hydrogen peroxide. These components penetrate deep into the hair shaft and radically remove the dye pigments. Deep pickling means that under the action of the drug, the coloring pigment molecule is compressed to very small sizes or even completely destroyed, which facilitates its washing out from under the hair scales.

Such a procedure should be performed professional master, since if chemicals are used improperly, it can be very dry and injure the hair. Immediately after staining, the wash cannot be done; you will have to wait at least two weeks, and only then proceed with the procedure.

In order to properly do pickling at home, you must strictly follow the instructions if it is a chemical or acid wash, and observe the holding time of the compositions on the hair if you are using natural ingredients. In the process of preparing working compositions, do not use metal utensils, and also do not use metal combs - the metal enters into a chemical reaction with the components of the remover, and the results can be the most unexpected.

You can use products containing aggressive acids, alkali, ammonia, hydrogen peroxide no more than once every two months. All these components severely dry out not only the hair, but also the scalp, therefore, after carrying out such washes, it is necessary to make nourishing masks with oils and moisturizing ingredients so that your hair does not fade and do not start to break off.

Deep pickling is best done by an experienced professional who can accurately measure the required ingredients and apply them evenly to your hair. If you start doing such a wash yourself, then there is a high degree of probability that the lightening of the strands will be spots, and it will be very difficult to correct this situation in the future.

Before dyeing, you need to wait 2-4 weeks, this time will be enough for the hair and scalp to restore their water-fat balance.Experienced professional colorists, in the process of dyeing hair weakened by multiple washes, add special oils to the dye that prevent the hair shaft from drying out and additionally nourish it.
