Naturalness is a sign of natural beauty and health. Now many stylists and fashion designers create images close to naturalness. Owners of dark blond curls are a fairly common occurrence in the CIS, but this color is not suitable for everyone. In some cases, the mistakenly chosen shade does not harmonize with the complexion and adds age to the girls. Let's look at the features of appearance that you need to pay attention to by choosing the appropriate shade.
Features
To begin with, dark brown curls can acquire a huge number of shades. The variety of colors in the palette is so multifaceted that it is impossible to decide immediately on the suitable one. Stylists recommend taking into account some features of the appearance:
- if the hair structure is dry and damaged, then the light brown color will have an unattractive appearance;
- for a dark skin type it is better to choose a warm shade so that the color is the most natural;
- on owners of long curls, shades of a cold color will ideally look;
- girls with a fair skin type should choose a light blond color.
Each shade of dark brown has its own characteristics. For plain coloring, you should choose a cold shade, but for a stylish ombre - a warm gamut. Dark brown color is created using tint balms, paints or henna. There are many ways of highlighting, in which the dark brown color is used in individual locks, creating an addition to the natural look.
When gray hair appears, it is better to dye in darker shades, but do not forget the rules about harmony with skin color. To create a complete image, make-up should be applied in a light tone, for lips use pale pink or coral color. If the girl goes to dinner, then the evening make-up smoky eyes will look very impressive.
The female gender is so changeable in nature, depending on the mood, I want to change something in my appearance. Therefore, stylists came up with such a procedure as highlighting. This is a way to give a shade to the hair, creating unique images. The structure of curls will not be damaged due to the fact that only individual strands are painted. Combining a different palette, the hairstyle becomes much brighter. For example, coloring individual parts of the hair (ends or bangs), you can emphasize a stylish haircut or attractive appearance.

Kinds
Creating a unique image, world stylists and hairdressers use different highlighting techniques. It should be noted the most popular types of such staining, which are suitable specifically for dark blond beauties.
Traditional method
The classic version of staining, which involves creating a lighter shade along the entire length. It is necessary to choose a color so that it harmonizes with the naturally light-brown shade of curls. Wide color gamut:
- ashen;
- wheat;
- blond with a golden hue;
- coffee with milk;
- others.
The traditional highlighting method involves a combination of several tones (from 2 to 4). If the hair is quite brittle and brittle, you can take locks only from the outside, without affecting the rest.
California method
The principle of dyeing by this method is to apply paint to the hair without first wrapping it in foil. Paint is applied to the curls with a brush with a sweeping movement, while strands that are not painted create beautiful overflows and provide a smooth transition. This technique creates the effect of naturally burnt hair under the hot sun. In staining, there is no touch with the root zone, so it is considered the most sparing. A gentle and smooth transition from natural to brighter is the fashion trend this year.
Highlighting in the American
This technique is staining in bright shades that create glare. Stylists recommend using a maximum of 3 tones. Highlighting in the American way gives a unique volume to your hair. Creating different images through styling, your hair color will shimmer and acquire a different shade each time.
Highlighting of individual sections (partial)
The name of this type of highlighting speaks for itself. For coloring, individual parts of the hair are taken.In the classic version, the occipital part of the hair and curls in the face are used. And also asymmetric technique, radical and diagonal, can be attributed to this type. These techniques differ by highlighting a specific area to emphasize attractiveness. In order not to injure curls, paints without ammonia are used.
Ombre
Today it is the most fashionable and popular highlighting technique. The principle of staining is to brighten the ends, while the root zone does not touch. Smooth transition can indicate a girl before the procedure. You can use a variety of colors from natural tender to bright purple.
Please note that when dyeing unusually bright colors, the hair is lightened.
Balayazh and Shatush
The technique of highlighting in several tones is performed. In this case, the master should achieve a perfectly soft transition from one to another, for this we recommend choosing several similar shades. This highlighting method looks very impressive on dark blond hair.
Inverse highlighting
This type of highlighting involves restoring a natural, darker color. This technology is practiced on the head of hair, which has already undergone the highlighting procedure more than once, while the pattern and the locks do not stand out. The staining process is carried out, as in classical highlighting, but a darker shade is chosen.
What shades to choose?
The color of natural hair plays an important role in choosing the right shade for highlighting. Dark brown color is distinguished by its versatility. The tone of the strand can be selected lighter or give depth to the color using dark shades. Bright colors will suit teens, and young girls should not experiment. The alternation of locks in one color scale will look the most stylish and noble. Owners of light brown hair in warm shades will suit beige, nut or reddish colors. To create a colder shade, you can use platinum, coffee or chocolate tones.
With black, you need to be careful because the result is undesirably gray and dull. The use of black color will give a contrasting appearance, however, it will emphasize all the disadvantages of appearance.
If you still want to try this color, then it is better to choose a lighter shade. For example, you can try chocolate or brown tones. Thanks to these shades, women of a more mature age will look much younger.
Girls who have black curls are recommended to combine highlighting with a rich red tint. Visually, such staining will add density and volume to the hair. You can color some parts of the curls, for example, bangs or locks that frame the face.
When choosing the right shade for highlighting, we recommend taking into account several important points.
- With a weakened hair structure, you should choose the technique that is most gentle. It is worthwhile to dwell on American technology or partial highlighting.
- Light brown, red or gold locks are suitable for a dark blond beauty, using the technique of a hammock and a crank.
- A short haircut will look perfect ombre.
With the right selection of colors, the skin of the face will look fresh, which makes the girl much younger.
Dyeing hair of various lengths
Highlighting hair of different lengths differs by the method of dyeing and application technique. One type of highlighting is more suitable for long ones, the other for short ones. To determine what kind of highlighting is right for you, each hair length and its structure should be described separately in detail.
Long
Naturally, owners of long and healthy hair can experiment with any type of staining. Highlighting with highlights, a soft transition or ombre - the choice is yours. The main thing is to choose the right shade - and the curls will acquire a chic look. For the master, this is a flight of fantasies.
If the girl has natural wavy curls, then the glare technique looks spectacular, each time when moving different shades will appear. On straight long hair, try highlighting a balayazh or a crank. The only negative highlighting on long hair is the cost. The paint will take a lot, but the result will surpass itself. We recommend painting in the cabin, since at home you can get an undesirable effect. The process is also quite time-consuming and time-consuming, it can last about 4 hours. In order to speed up the procedure, many professionals prefer to use the California method of highlighting.
Medium
When highlighting curls of medium length, it should be noted that the method of applying paint is used with foil or open (California). The use of hats is irrelevant.
Choose a color scheme in accordance with the shade of natural hair. All types of highlighting will look beautiful, it all depends on desire.
Short
For owners of short haircuts, classic highlighting is performed using a hat. If a more sophisticated coloring technique is used, then foil is used. Partial or asymmetric highlighting looks beautiful. However, the ombre is the most popular way among the bob haircuts.
Tips
In order for the highlighting procedure to give a justified result, use the recommendations of specialists.
- Before the procedure, damaged and split ends are best treated.
- Tell your hairdresser anything that dyed your hair before.
- To create a natural and beautiful image, do not use unnatural colors.
- If you want to add light locks, then do them no more than 3 tones above the main hair color. In this case, the eye color is not lighter than more than 2 tones. Then your skin will not appear pale.
- In order for your hair to look more natural, the strands that are highlighted should be thin.
- If you do not like the contrast of the locks, you can soften them by tinting the entire length.
