All hair colors

Every girl wants her hair to look great, but for this it is necessary not only to properly care for them, but also to choose the right shade, as well as a way of dyeing that will help to stylishly complement any look.

But often girls do not possess all the information on hair colors and, wishing to perform the procedure on their own, can create a lot of unnecessary problems.

Let us consider in more detail the classification of hair colors, methods of dyeing, as well as a variety of shades for various natural hair colors.

In order to better navigate the hair colors, you need to familiarize yourself with some professional terms, because in addition to the name of the shade on the store packaging, there are many other very important information.

The term "color depth", perhaps, can only be heard from professionals or seen on the packaging of professional hair dyes, since products designed for independent use differ only in shade names.

Depth is divided into only a few standard colors, which are indicated by the corresponding numbers:

• classic black - 1;
• dark brown shade, only slightly different from black - 2;
• dark brown tone, which has a noticeable difference from the previous two - 3;
• medium brown shade - 4;
• light brown - 5;
• Dark blond, better known as light brown hair tint - 6;
• a lighter tone, called the middle blond - 7;
• light blond - 8;
• even lighter shade of blond hair - 9;
• the lightest blond is 10.

It should be noted that the color depth directly depends on the structure of the hair and the content of natural pigment in it - melanin, which consists of two separate pigments.

• Eumelanin. This pigment is an elongated granule containing red and blue colors. It is responsible for the degree of shade depth - the higher the content of eumelanin in the hair, the darker it will be, and vice versa.
• The small round granules that make up pigment pheomelaninare characterized by the content of red and yellow colors, which makes them a hater of all blonde girls who want to get a luxurious cool shade of blond. The thing is that this pigment gives the hair a yellow tint, and the more its content in the structure, the yellower the tone. It is very difficult and undesirable to remove it, since the complete absence of this pigment can lead to damage and destruction of the hair structure.

It should be noted that the content of pheomelanin is especially pronounced during lightening of hair, since almost always the darkest hair after lightening almost always gives a color with a slight yellow tint. For example, classic black becomes brown, and colors from 3 to 10 deep take on red, orange and yellow hues.

In addition to depth, the color scheme of hair also differs in direction. By this concept is meant the presence of a pronounced shade in the color of hair. For example, ashen, orange, golden, red or even purple. In addition to the above, there are other directions expressed in natural, copper, pearl, beige and brown tones.

As a rule, the color direction can be indicated by numbers or letters corresponding to the Latin name. But it is worth noting that some areas are found in Russian-language descriptions, but are not indicated in the European system and vice versa:

• 0 - natural / natural (N);
• 1 - ashen / ash (A);
• 2 - green;
• 3 - golden / gold (G);
• 4 - copper / copper (C);
• 5 - red / red (R);
• 6 - purple / violet (V);
• 7 - brown / brown (B);
• 11 - blue;
• Pearl (P) - mother of pearl;
• Mocha (M) - mocha;
• Orange (O) - Orange.

As we can see, the designations are diverse, so there is no doubt if you meet different packaging options on different packages. Most often, the direction is indicated along with the color depth, through some sign. For example, 8/1 - light ash blonde, 4.7 - classic brown brown, 6G - golden dark blond. There are also double signs that indicate the intensity of the color, for example, 8.44 - saturated copper.

In addition to the distinguishing features already listed, hair color can also be classified by temperature. But this classification is very small, so it will be quite difficult to get confused in it. Separately, only two temperature designations of the color of the hair are isolated.

• Cold This subspecies includes blue, violet, lilac, green, purple, ash, copper, as well as some variations of initially warm shades, for example, cold yellow.
• Warm. This means hair colors that have an orange, red, golden, natural or brown direction.

It is in accordance with the temperature of the shade and the temperature of the color type that it is necessary to make the final decision when choosing the color of hair.

Speaking of hair colors, one cannot but mention the types, methods of dyeing. As a rule, they can be completely diverse, both monophonic, double, and multicolor, and the matter is not limited to lightening, bleaching, or darkening of hair. Consider the most popular of them.

Highlighting - may contain several shades.The main principle of the technique is the highlighting of individual strands, followed by dyeing in a specific color. Sometimes the strands are left discolored if the general appearance of the hairstyle requires it.

The principle of implementation is simple and similar to the previous version, individual strands are highlighted and painted in different shades. It is also possible to stretch the color so that the transition from the natural tone of the hair to the dyed part is smoother.

Majimesh - A popular dye that can lighten hair in several tones. The advantage of this technique is that the coloring composition is mixed with hair wax, so that the curls become more elastic and shiny. It is worth noting that this technique is suitable only for owners of blond and blond hair, since the dark pigment will not show absolutely any effect.

Ombre - the so-called staining technique, consisting of two shades. A smooth transition from dark roots to light or colored ends makes the hair natural, and adds a little lightness and freshness to the image. This staining will look spectacular both on blondes, so on brunettes and red.

Pixel Staining - a very unusual fashion trend, which came from Spanish professionals, which not every girl will decide on. The thing is that the paint is applied to the hair only in separate places, forming a specific pixel pattern, consisting of small squares and rectangles. A prerequisite for this technique is perfectly straight hair, because otherwise the pattern simply will not be visible and distorted.

Degrade - this is how gradient coloring is called among professionals, it is far from a new technique, but does not cease to be popular. The technique is a stretching of the color along the entire length of the hair, starting from the roots and moving to the ends. As a rule, contrasting shades are used for such staining. It is also worth noting that degrade is ideal for long hair and is very difficult to perform on short, without achieving the desired effect in full.

Shatush - the type of staining also associated with stretching the shade along the entire length of the hair. The complexity of the technique lies in the fact that the shade should not be stretched over the entire volume of the hair, but only over individual strands, for this you need to do the work more carefully and delicately.

Balayazh - One of the very popular ways has its own characteristics.

Screen painting - A relatively new trend, which is gaining popularity with every season. A feature of the technique is that with the help of a stencil, a certain pattern is applied to the curls, forming the effect of snake skin or the color of the coat of a leopard and tiger. With this type of staining, the paint is applied to individual strands without exposing the rest of the hair.

This effect is achieved quite simply, you just need to take two shades of paint - light and a couple of tones darker.

Modern palettes of paints are so diverse that sometimes it is quite difficult to determine the color of hair. To alleviate the situation, you first need to figure out which shades belong to one color or another, which are suitable for a certain type of appearance, and which are completely unnatural when it comes to hair color.

There are quite a lot of shades of red color, so any girl who wants to focus on the color of her hair will be able to choose the right tone for her appearance.In addition, sometimes hair color is a manifestation of the character and inner mood of the girl, so it is very important to guess with tone and in this nuance.

For instance, classic copper tint, which is most often referred to as warm colors, is ideal for mischievous green-eyed girls with natural or light skin tones. But it is worth considering that getting a rich copper tone on dark hair is quite difficult, so you will have to pre-lighten the hair and take care of a thorough subsequent care and restoration.

Auburn It is a very rich and unusual shade with a special subtona. Its peculiarity lies in the fact that when staining they combine two colors - copper and purple, so that the paint can be used for dark hair, without prior bleaching.

Light red the shade looks very natural and original, but is suitable only for fair-haired women or girls with very bleached hair. In addition, the tone is very difficult to obtain, because for coloring you have to mix gold and blue shades, carefully observing the proportions.

Fiery red color - A real find for bright, self-confident girls who are not afraid of bold experiments with their appearance. It is quite difficult to achieve the perfect fiery shade, because unbleached hair may show deviations in this shade and will not look so impressive anymore.

Golden chestnut also refer to shades of red color, it is called red-brown.

This shade can be easily applied to light, blond and not too dark hair, but to get it on black hair you have to resort to bleaching.

Amber shade of hair sometimes called golden or caramel, because it has many tones and overflows, as is characteristic of the stone itself. Ideally, this hair color is suitable for dark-eyed girls or owners of green eyes and an olive skin tone. Dark hair for dyeing in this tone will have to be discolored, but he will fall perfectly on light brown and light strands.

Girls whose appearance refers to a cold color type are ideal red-brown hair color, which, it is worth noting, is the most natural and natural among all other shades. Such a tone will perfectly manifest on brown hair, while getting it on dark or blonde curls will be almost impossible.

It should be noted and a peach-red shade, which is often called red-pink.

You will also have to resort to lightening dark hair to get a golden-copper shade, which perfectly lies on the hair of light brown or lighter tones. Kohler belongs to the category of warm and rather soft shades, therefore, to the greatest degree it will suit girls of the corresponding color type.

For brunettes, there are many shades, which in general have subtle differences, expressed in light overflows. But there are options that have pronounced characteristic colors.

• The chocolate shade has many undertones, it can be lighter or darker, warm or cold and depending on this it will look different on girls of different appearance types.
• Classic brown color differs from chocolate in that it is more pronounced and does not have different shades.Most often, this color refers to a warm range of shades and is ideal for girls in spring and autumn color types.
• Separately, it is worth highlighting a shade called “bitter chocolate”, since it differs from other chocolate tones with a dark color saturation and a spectacular cold tint. This color scheme is ideal for girls of the winter color type, gracefully emphasizing their natural beauty.
• A light chestnut shade looks more fresh and natural than others, but you should be aware that it will fully appear only on the hair from the lightest to brown shades. In other cases, you will have to resort to a light clarification of the hair, otherwise the desired hair color may simply not work.
• The coffee hue is a cross between “dark chocolate” and a classic brown tone. It looks very original when stained with a stretch of color and a smooth transition to a lighter tone, which is called "glasse".
• Black is the darkest shade for brunettes, but only suitable for girls whose appearance refers to the cold color type. A black shade with a bluish tint is called a “black tulip”, and a rich burgundy subton is called a “black cherry”. The “blackcurrant” shade, which has a characteristic purple highlight, also looks very beautiful.
• A similar shade also has a rosewood tone, which is characterized by both light brown and burgundy, and barely noticeable violet glare, depending on the natural pigmentation of the hair.

There are also many other shades for brunettes, but these are perhaps the most basic, of which other, no less attractive colors take the basis.

There are a lot of shades of blonde hair, but there is no point in listing everything, since many of them differ not so much in tone as in color temperature, direction or the presence of shimmer of one or another shade.

So, for example, a classic blond can be cold or warm, light or dark, which, as a rule, looks more natural. Choosing one of these shades you need to be guided, first of all, by the temperature of the skin tone and eye color, since some combinations can look ridiculous and inappropriate.

Shades of hair with “tasty” names look very nice:

• caramel - ideal for dark-skinned girls with green or brown eyes, it looks natural and natural;
• strawberry - the most delicate and feminine version, with a light pinkish tint, ideal for girls with a cold type of appearance and light pinkish skin;
• mocha - a light coffee shade that will help emphasize the noble combination of dark skin and blue eyes;
• peach - no less original color, having a light orange tint, with this staining, any skin will be favorably tinted, and the effect of a light blush will flaunt on the cheeks;
• creamy - a universal shade of blonde hair, suitable for girls with absolutely any external data;
• vanilla - a very popular and rather moody warm shade that needs to be adjusted monthly.

Separately, it is worth highlighting the natural blonde shade, which is quite light, but, despite this, belongs to the category of warm colors. Achieving this hair color is quite difficult, because with the wrong choice of coloring agents, you can get a pronounced yellow shade.

Many confuse brown-haired hair color with shades of red and brown hair, but it is still a separate tone, with many varieties. The classic brown has a chestnut hue, thanks to which this hair color can be easily confused with others. Let us consider in more detail a palette of shades for brown-haired women.

• Light - a very soft and warm shade, suitable for girls with a golden skin tone, green, amber, honey and brown eyes. It is with such combinations that the shade will luxuriously complement the image and will look most advantageous.
• Ash brown is a fashionable alternative for blue-eyed girls of a cold color type. This shade has an appropriate temperature and looks very noble.
• Iced chocolate - you can already understand from the name who this tone will suit. The noble shade, although it is quite dark, still does not fall into the classification of shades for brunettes, which makes it an ideal option for “cold” brown-haired women.
• Golden is a very organic and harmonious tone in itself, which can be combined with both tanned and snow-white skin, as well as with absolutely any eye color.
• Natural - an ideal warm shade that fully emphasizes the most beneficial aspects of girls with olive skin and bright eyes. In addition, the color itself is quite soft, which will beneficially affect the image as a whole.
• Caramel chestnut - the tone looks very original and has a characteristic soft golden hue. Ideal for sensual, feminine persons of a warm color type.
• Dark chestnut - it can easily be confused with one of the shades for brunettes, but professionals still rank it among the colors of the brown-haired. It is ideal for swarthy girls, and also helps to soften the contours of the face, making them softer and more feminine.

Some shades of brown hair are often confused with both blond colors and some shades of brown hair. To understand the varieties of this color, consider in more detail the most popular of them.

• Girls of a warm color type of appearance quite often are owners of dark brown hair. This is an indisputable advantage, since with such an appearance it is most simple to choose the right colors in clothes and makeup.
• Medium blond shades of hair can be both warm and cold. Depending on the individual characteristics, the girls of the first type are suitable for caramel, almond and wheat shades, while for the second, ash, gray and platinum tones are ideal.
• Sandalwood is a classic shade of light brown hair, referring to the warm color type of appearance. This hair color is ideal for girls with a light tan and bright eyes.
• If we talk about other shades of light blond, we can note their common feature - they all look pretty natural and represent very soft, pleasant warm tones. But it is worth noting that such colors are not recommended for fair-skinned girls, as they will be lost against the backdrop of spectacular hair.

Speaking of brown hair, it is worth mentioning that they are most often subjected to various dyeing techniques. Most often there are ombre, balayazh and gradient. It is the color transitions from darker to lighter that look more natural on the hair of light brown shades.

Unnatural colors also have a place to be, but care should be taken to such experiments, since some of them hardly fit into the framework of any dress code.

For example, amethyst-colored hair is likely to cause a lot of discussion and surprised looks, but at the same time a lot of delight, because on dark curls this shade gives a rich purple tint, and on light it looks like a light lilac haze.

A very unusual, but stylish solution - hair is the color of wet asphalt.

The salmon shade is very popular, but it is not quite customary to see it on the hair. A soft pink-orange tone will be the perfect solution for girls with very fair skin and blue eyes, perfectly emphasizing all the advantages of this combination.

Intense blue hair color called “indigo”, may cause confusion among people who are accustomed to more conservative images, but one cannot deny the fact that he looks pretty beautiful and even bewitching. This shade is not recommended for girls with very pale skin, because against the background of the hair it can show a grayish tint and seem slightly unhealthy.

Even more questions and surprise can cause the hair of a swamp color. Not every girl decides to stain this kind and not every type of appearance will suit it. The most suitable option is dark skin and light eyes.

The curls of carrot color will attract a lot of attention. Still - it's a real color bomb. A bright shade will emphasize the extraordinary creative nature of the girl, as well as highlight the natural tone of her skin and green eyes.

Many custom shades can be found in the line of paints "Tefiya", "Schwarzkopf", "Matrix". These funds will help not only gently and delicately change the color of the hair, but also retain the original and unusual color for a long time.

Modern fashion is rich in a variety of unusual colors. This also applies to hair color, because this season the most unusual and non-standard options are popular. But there are several interesting colors from the more familiar colors, which are no less beautiful and no less fashionable.

For instance, delicate pastel shades look very beautiful and feminine. A powdery shade will help emphasize the graceful features of a fragile girlish appearance, and a linen tone will help emphasize the color of the skin. It is worth mentioning that flaxen hair is a more classic and familiar option.

Speaking of bright unusual shades, the first is to highlight the color "fuchsia". Bright pink hair with raspberry tint will become an unusual accent of appearance and image. With certain hairstyles and a suitable make-up with this hair color, you can create both an informal everyday look and a bow suitable for the framework of a business style.

Owners of light porcelain skin can also safely experiment with their appearance and color of hair.

The color of Marsala, as well as wine and cherry shades, have a characteristic violet-burgundy highlight on the hair. These colors are popular both when coloring the entire volume of hair completely, and when highlighting strands using the ombre technique or unusual highlighting.

No less popular are shades such as ginger and aquamarine. Each of them has its own characteristics and is popular with girls of certain types.

It is necessary to approach the choice of hair color wisely, delicately and without haste, because sometimes it is quite difficult to choose a beautiful shade that matches the character of the girl. Consider the basic rules for choosing hair color.

• The first thing you should pay attention to is the color type of appearance and its “temperature”. It takes into account both eye color and natural skin tone. The image will not be harmonious if the shade of hair is not combined with one of these factors.
• The choice of shade largely depends on the mood, but it is important to follow not a momentary impulse, but a deliberate desire. Most likely, if you have a minute thought about painting in an unusual bright color, you will soon regret it. Therefore, it is best to listen to your true desires.
• The color of hair should be selected in accordance with the individual parameters of the face. For example, dark hair will help smooth the oval and make the face visually thinner, while blonde shades will make even more puffy cheeks even more voluminous.
• Introducing yourself in a new hair color, you should feel comfortable. Shades that are not suitable for the girl’s internal state and character will not bring her any pleasure, but rather, on the contrary.
• Of course, it is necessary to take into account the condition of the hair before dyeing, since damaged or weakened curls cannot be subject to the next stress and chemical attack. They need restoration or even complete treatment. Therefore, it is not recommended to lighten already weak hair.
