Fiery red hair color: who cares and how to dye your hair?

Only few can boast of natural red hair color, about 2% of people are born with this shade. But a much larger percentage wants to buy it, and women of different ages and different natural color types tend to go into the status of "red-haired". The main condition for a competent transition is a correctly selected shade. And although the red color can be decomposed into several tens of tones, in the top of the most preferred - fiery, bright, expressive red.

Stylists assure: fiery red hair color can be the highlight of almost every woman. Contrary to the assurances that it goes to units, this color can be well combined with almost any external data. Another question is that it requires additional transformation conditions. A woman with a new color will have to get used to another make-up, a different color scheme of clothes, jewelry.

Often, a fiery redhead looks provocative, and sometimes just tasteless, when this unconditional brightness is no longer supported by anything in appearance. For example, a woman dyed her hair, but did not change the color of her eyebrows, she remained faithful to her former foundation, blush, and lipstick. In this case, the redhead really looks alien, does not paint the lady.

Despite the fact that the color can be akin to the appearance of most women, there are those categories that the redhead suits the most. This can be called ideal source data. For example, if a girl has fair skin, either dark red or light red, without middle options, is suitable for her.If a woman is swarthy, her beauty will be emphasized by deep and rich tones. When olive skin should be careful with very bright shades, but calm brownish-yellow will be organic.

Eye color is also important. If your eyes are brown, choose rich red tones, leaving brown. Owners of gray, blue and green eyes should turn to golden hues. Most of all, the redhead is suitable for green-eyed women.

In order not to make a mistake when staining, consider this:

• if the face has already appeared clear, deep enough wrinkles or noticeable irregularities of the skin, it is better to refuse bright shades (such colors will draw attention to imperfection);
• if you have a deep gray hair, try to paint curls in the cabin - the effect of home staining in a fiery red may disappoint you;
• if the hair is thin, weakened, brittle, you should first start their therapy and only then radically dye it;
• for pre-staining, take a tinting shampoo, the result will show how you look in the new color;
• think in advance whether you are ready to change makeup and clothes, without new elements in the appearance, the color will not be convincing.

See how they dress, how famous people present themselves with bright red hair color. This helps to determine the orientation in the choice. Along with the new head of hair, you are likely to have new eyebrows: your face will visually change. Someone becomes brighter, someone's image, on the contrary, softens.

Not so long ago, shades of red-red were considered relevant. They went very much to women with fair skin of even tone, blue or green eyes. For a greater effect, hair was styled voluminously, bangs were made, etc. But women with short haircuts do not always go red-red: sometimes the color is frankly aging.

The main light shades of red:

• ash red (not considered bright);
• apricot;
• light brown;
• fiery;
• golden;
• gentle ginger;
• copper redhead.

The most fashionable of all the listed colors is apricot. It is bright, stylish, expressive, and at the same time suits women of different ages. And a young 18-year-old girl who made a bob or pixie can dye her hair apricot and look even more bright, fresh, stylish. And a 35+ woman can afford such a fashionable shade, and thus lose at least 5 years of appearance. And mature ladies with a bright color type, well-groomed and fashion-conscious, can try the top apricot color.

Apricot - a great alternative to the fiery redhead, it can be considered an echo of the fiery shade, more in tune with the times. The color looks great on short haircuts, squares and pixies. It is suitable for women with fair skin and bright eyes.

Finally, we turn to the tones of the red, which can be called flashy. Such fiery shades include orange, carrot, warm honey, amber, as well as coral, orange-red and orange-golden.

Variations of the fiery red.

• In carrot color red notes dominate, this option suits fair-haired ladies, as well as fair-skinned brown-eyed women.

• Orange tint refers to warm colors. This is a deep orange color that does not accept the intervention of other tones. It will be harmonious with peach or pink skin, as well as brown eyes. To swarthy ladies, orange is rare.

• Honey color combines softness and passion, mystery. When stained, a light orange hue with golden tints comes out. The best color type for this shade is light skin and brown eyes.

• Amber is a bold color. In the resulting tone, you can notice notes of cherry, red and brown.A good solution for brown-eyed and green-eyed women with light or olive skin.

• Coral - a fashionable tone, it mixes red and orange, as if diluted with milk. The tone can suit both fair-skinned girls and dark-skinned girls.

• Orange red - A bold option for ladies with fair and flawless skin.

• Orange golden - Suitable for light-eyed long-haired girls, as the color reveals in the overflow.

It is worth mentioning the natural shades of red, close to natural. It is golden, caramel, sand and wheat-peach. They do not always look very bright, but the transition to a new color will be softer for a woman.

Consultation with a colorist is a mandatory stage in the transformation of a modern woman. And if you are tuned to a red color, without this stage it is difficult to achieve the desired result. A specialist for choosing the right shade will take into account skin tone and type, eye color, face shape, pigment strength in hair, moisture of the strands, individual style of the client, etc. For example, if a woman spends a lot of time outside, it will be difficult for her to keep a bright shade, because the pigment molecules are smaller, they will soon fade in the open air.

If you decide to transform at home, you need to choose high-quality paint and go through all the stages of competent staining. The first stage is an assessment of the condition of the hair. If the hair is damaged, coloring will have to be postponed. Not only will the paint only aggravate the condition of the curls, the color can lie in stripes and spots. Treat hair with restoring masks, timely haircuts.

The next moment is discoloration, often without it. Hairdressers call this process the alignment of the lightening base. It is not worth completely etching the pigment, it is enough to bring the level of tone depth to 8 (light blond color). And after bleaching, tinting should be done immediately.

Choose a dye from a specific category. There are mass-market products, many of them really have a good composition and are adequate in price. The problem is the selection of an oxidant. An oxidant is a liquid that serves as an activator to a dye. The lower its concentration, the less damage will be done to the hair.

In professional dyes, you yourself choose the percentage of oxidizing agent, the degree of brightness of the color and the concentration of the coloring composition.

The painting process consists of the following steps:

• bleaching dark hair to the 8th tone;
• tinting in a suitable color - occurs as usual dyeing, when the hair is divided into four zones and gradually dyed each, completing the area near the forehead and temples;
• fixing colors with special masks and balms.

Do not forget to apply oily cream on the most vulnerable areas of the face before painting. It warns the skin from staining. Rinse off the dye until the water is completely clear. After painting for at least three days, try not to wash your hair. Do not use thermal devices, do not walk with your head uncovered under the scorching sun.

If you do not want to expose curls to chemical dyes, refer to natural, the most famous of which is henna. This tool actually never gives an allergic reaction, is easily used at home, does not include ammonia.

The color fastness and the quality of curls depend on how you build a system for caring for dyed hair. There are basic rules that always work, regardless of the chosen dye, hair color and length.

1. Before using a hair dryer or straighteners (straighteners), use thermal protective products. It will be a spray or a serum, it does not matter. The main thing is to give the hair protection, otherwise the frequent use of thermal devices will aggravate the condition of the curls.
2. The shampoo you will use should be suitable for dyed hair, low pH. This will help maintain the brightness of the hue for several months.
3. Use a moisturizing or nourishing mask after each shampoo.
4. To complete each shampoo should use oil-silicone products for the ends of the hair. Apply the composition only on the tips in order to fasten the sections of the section. This method will allow you to grow long hair without loss and quickly enough.

Specifically for red hair exist shampoos and masks with the addition of natural tinting ingredients (cinnamon, for example). They allow the color to fix on the hair, slowly wash out of the hair structure. Professional masks can be alternated with home ones. Red-haired fit masks made of egg yolk and sea buckthorn oilwell, they have powerful reducing activity. After washing, you can rinse your hair with apple cider vinegar, but not every time.

Helps maintain color and home lamination. A professional procedure will certainly give the desired effect, but this option is not suitable for everyone. Home lamination involves the use of natural ingredients and is inexpensive. For this procedure, a bag of gelatin needs to be poured with warm water, add to the resulting solution a little ordinary hair balm, your favorite oil.

Wash your hair and distribute the home-made composition along the entire length, without touching the root zone. After applying the mask, wrap the hair well, put on a hat, wrap a towel over the top. To enhance the effect, you can use a hairdryer. The procedure will take about an hour, after which the curls should be thoroughly washed to remove the remnants of gelatin. Try for several days (1-2) not to style in a complicated way, not to pin or braid your hair so that there are no creases on them.
