How to make coloring at home?

Most girls and women like to change their image from time to time, switching to a different style of makeup and clothing. In order to diversify their onions, they also adjust the color of the hair, which allows you to emphasize the shape of the hairstyle. Today there are many types of staining, but coloring is especially popular with fashionistas.

Coloring is a modern technology of hair coloring using several shades of paint. Originally, you can dye your hair in this way both in beauty salons and at home. To perform the procedure, you need to have some experience, since it is important to be able to correctly divide the hair into small strands and select the appropriate tone. The main feature of coloring is considered to be that it allows you to visually create a haircut volume, reviving the natural color of the hair with a tint range. In addition, this type of staining is more gentle in relation to curls - this is its advantage over highlighting and other technologies.

Thanks to the coloring of the hair, you can also perform facial color correction, removing its excessive pallor or darkness.

To paint the strands in contrast, Coloring must be combined with biolamination, due to which the color lasts longer. If the procedure is carried out independently at home, you should correctly combine shades, avoiding mixing warm and cold tones of the palette.

Specialists use a variety of dyes to colorize, from persistent brighteners to semi-permanent and tinted ones. Before purchasing material for painting, the condition of the hair should be taken into account, as in many girls they can be completely dyed or highlighted. For courageous ladies who are accustomed to stand out from the crowd with creative painting, it is best to give preference to washable dyes and trust the coloring process to professionals.

If the procedure is carried out independently, it is important to consider the following points:

• painting should begin with a bang, and then performed on the rest of the hair;
• the paint must be kept strictly according to the time specified in the instructions for the dye;
• To consolidate the result, you should use a special balm, conditioner and shampoo;
• Dark curls require lightening before coloring, after which different colors are applied to the lower and upper parts of the hair.

Coloring can be done in two main ways: longitudinal and transverse. In the first case, you need to dye the strands along the entire length, and in the second, the hair is divided into separate sections, which are painted on the tips in light shades, and on the roots darker.

Due to the transverse coloring, it is possible to achieve a smooth and softer transition in the colors of the paint, as a result, the root zone does not have a sharp difference with the painted area.

Depending on the desired effect, coloring is performed using several technologies.

• Neon It is characterized by the use of too bright colors, among which green, purple and blue predominate. Typically, such a painting is chosen by adolescents who want to surprise others with their informality. For neon coloring, washable and unstable gels are most often used.
• Zonal. In this case, painting is carried out only on a separately selected part of the hair, which in most cases serves as a bang. For tinting light bangs, pink, purple or red color is used.
• Multicolor. It is the most popular technique that is suitable for all women, regardless of age. The meaning of this dyeing is to apply hair dyes of various colors, but similar in tone. Multicolor asymmetric coloring is now in fashion, in which strands color unevenly and randomly. Long hair looks spectacular in this design, on which more than 20 different shades can be present.
• American It differs from previous techniques in that it uses a saturated red color. This is one of the most difficult methods of painting, since during the procedure you need to be able to carefully wrap each strand in foil without mixing shades. American coloring is perfect for brown-haired women and brunettes.

Since coloring is considered an expensive procedure, many girls prefer to do it on their own. In order for the painting process to be successful, and the result to be spectacular, beginners should use the following schemes.

• "Zigzag". A similar option is recommended for straight hair of medium length. The uniqueness of such dyeing is that the color of the curls can vary depending on the placement of the parting.
• "In the middle." This scheme is considered an ideal choice for both straight and curly hair of medium and long length. Coloring in this case is done in a direct way, previously determining the location of the parting.Typically, such a scheme is preferred by those fashionistas who are trying to change something in their appearance, but treat this with caution.
• "Bang". Perfect for straight or curly hair, as well as for short haircuts with bangs. Zoning of the paint is determined by the shape of the bangs. In the classic version, parting is done in the frontal zone from the left frontal cavity to the right. If the fringe is oblique or triangular, then its parting is distinguished in the crown region so that a horseshoe-shaped section is formed.
• "Centric pattern." It has an excellent tinting effect, but at home it is difficult to perform such a scheme. As a rule, this option is used on long and straight hair, but it is not suitable for short hair.

If coloring is done for the first time at home, it is advisable to use unstable gels, which will help to quickly quickly fix a bad result.

Despite the fact that coloring involves the use of at least three colors, in many cases you can limit yourself to only two shades. As a rule, girls who prefer a natural hair color prefer this option. For this, two-tone paint is acquired (one of which is one and a half shades lighter, and the second is just as darker than the base color).

Shades should have a smooth transition, providing hair a natural overflow. For ladies who want to emphasize the grading of the haircut, it is recommended to colorize with several colors that radically differ in tone.

A huge role is played by eye color and skin tone. For example, owners of green eyes and dark skin need to apply dark shades, as for purple and blue, they are undesirable, as they give the face yellow.

Fashionable women with fair skin and blue eyes are ideally stained with strands in a golden and golden chestnut hue. As for the ashen and beige, it will make the face "blurred." Women who have freckles on their faces are recommended a red color in medium and warm colors. Chocolate color is best for brunettes.

Before you color your hair at home, you should not only decide on the color scheme, but also purchase the appropriate tools and paint material. The basic set for the procedure should consist of the following elements:

• paints of several tones of one manufacturer;
• clarifier (for long strands 2-3 packages are required);
• tassels and gloves;
• containers for mixing the composition (metal is not allowed);
• foil;
• hairpins and combs of various shapes;
• clean towels.

Once tools and paint are available, you can proceed with direct coloring. In the case when the procedure is planned to be performed at home, then Do not wash your hair for 3-4 days before painting. This is necessary so that the sebaceous glands of the skin have time to release a layer of fat, which will serve as a protective coating for the hair from the negative effects of paint. During the last shampooing, you can not use balms, as they can worsen the result of painting.

Before applying the dye composition to the hair, make sure that all shades of paint are produced by the same brand. To avoid an allergic reaction to the paint, you should also conduct a test. Each dye must be mixed in separate containers, having previously studied the instructions from the manufacturer.The skin areas that will be maximally located in the painting area must be lubricated with a nourishing cream, which will protect them from staining.

Coloring is considered the most effective and complex type of hair coloring, but if the technology is followed correctly, then it is quite possible to do it at home. This procedure is especially suitable for owners of thin strands, which when laying require additional volume and brightness. You can dye hair of any length and type in this way, having previously selected a suitable scheme.

For owners of short haircuts, coloring is considered a real find, since it allows you to favorably emphasize the hairstyle style and makes curls more voluminous and soft. In this case, experts recommend applying such painting techniques as “avant-garde”, “multicolor” and “zonal”. Step by step it will look as follows.

1. First, each shade is separately prepared in the container, the foil is cut into small pieces 10 cm long and a towel is thrown over the shoulders (preferably the old one).
2. Then unwashed hair needs to be carefully combed and divided into several strands, fixing each clip or hairpin.
3. Changing colors in turn, the strands are painted and wrapped in foil. First of all, the occipital area is painted, then the crown, sides and bangs.
4. After the duration of the paint is over (the duration is indicated in the packaging instructions), the foil is removed and the paint is washed off with warm water.
5. Then, the hair is washed again using shampoo.
6. The process ends with drying and styling.

In the case when coloring is applied to short blonde hair, they can be either lightened or darkened. Moreover, for light strands, the ombre technique, which provides for darkening by 3-4 tones, is best suited. No less interesting look short haircuts with the presence of light glare on the hair, for which they use coloring “Bebilights”, brightening the strands in 3 tones.

To dark-haired beauties, coloring with the use of dark red, purple, cherry and blue will help to complement the image with brightness and chic. At the same time, dark curls must be painted in different tones step by step, previously lightening them by 3 shades. As a rule, the ombre and balayazh coloring technique is suitable for such girls, in which the paint is evenly distributed along the entire length of the strands with a thin brush.

Now haircuts with an average length of hair are very popular with fashionistas. It is interesting to emphasize the shape of the hairstyle in this case, coloring will help. You can do this type of painting yourself at home, choosing the following schemes.

• For caret. A zonal staining method is well suited. To do this, comb the hair, divide it into strands, each of which is dyed at the tips and wrapped in foil. It is worth starting from the lower zone of the head, gradually moving to the top of the head. Lastly, the dye is applied to the sides and bangs.
• Curls. Painting is carried out similarly to the first scheme, only in this case, the paint is applied in a transverse way.
• Asymmetry. Using coloring, separate strands are isolated or patterned staining is performed. Since bright colors are used for painting, hair should first be lightened by 3-4 tones, then proceed to tinting of selected areas.So that the composition does not resurface to neighboring areas, colored strands need to be wrapped in double folded foil.

Coloring long hair allows you to create different options for hairstyles. Most often, for dyeing hair at home, fashionistas choose the “balayazh” technique, since it can be done independently without the help of specialists. Step by step, the painting process is as follows:

1. first prepare the hair, paint material and all tools;
2. then the curls are divided into several strands and begin to stain the inside, applying paint from the roots to the tips;
3. external strands are not painted, they are left in a natural shade;
4. exposure of the composition on the hair occurs according to the instructions, after which the hair is washed with warm water, then the washing procedure is repeated, using shampoo, balm.

In the event that the hair is too long, and the girl wants to further emphasize their density and beauty, then you can apply American coloring, which is done as follows:

1. appropriate shades of red are selected, taking into account the natural color of the hair;
2. then apply the main paint on the occipital strands using a comb-ponytail;
3. colored curls are wrapped in foil and begin painting the temples and crown, starting from the bottom;
4. after the main tone, they switch to tinted colors, the procedure is performed in a similar sequence from the front to the parietal zone;
5. the paint is kept on the hair for a certain time, but not more than 30 minutes;
6. then the foil is removed according to the following scheme: at first the darkest areas are freed, then the lighter;
7. Coloring is completed by washing hair, drying and styling.

If this technique is performed independently without experience, then perhaps the first time it will fail. Most often, novice masters incorrectly distribute strands, resulting in smudges of paint and stains. Problems can arise if the paint time is not respected, as extra minutes lead to hair damage.
