Hair tonic - a riot of colors and shades

Tinted shampoos and conditioners are a good alternative to hair dyes. They do not cause such harm to hair, and the tonic palette is several times larger than the palette of any paint and has such unusual shades as blue and blue. It will not be possible to radically change the hair color with the help of a tonic, but it is quite possible to correct it by one or two tones, make the strands shiny and give them a well-groomed look. The use of tint shampoos has its own subtleties, since if applied incorrectly, often the color is not the same as in the picture. Let's take a closer look at how to choose a hair tonic, and which color palette will suit different girls.

Choosing a tonic

Before buying a tint balm, carefully read the instructions. Make sure that the tonic contains no ammonia after all, this is its most important difference from hair dye. Ammonia brightens the strands, which will negatively affect the resulting shade, especially pink and blue tones. But the presence of plant extracts is welcomed, because they envelop the hair, but do not penetrate into its depth, thereby without causing harm. Light brown hair is especially susceptible to the negative influence of chemical dyes.

Natural extracts rinse off faster than chemical extracts, but they leave strands intact.

A tonic is also a shampoo and it should cope with head contamination... Laureth sulfates are welcomed in the dyes, but Larilov should not be there, they dry out the hair and scalp. A good tonic must include nutritional supplements: proteins, jojoba and avocado oils. Currently, there are dozens of tonic manufacturers in our country. The most famous of them are Estelle, Loreal and Roccolor.

We select a shade

In the range of colors of modern tinted shampoos and balms, you will find the brightest and most unexpected shades: from pink to blue, from the color of wild plum to bright red. Each brand of shampoo has a standard palette and shades available only from a specific manufacturer, but they are all divided into four more subgroups:

• Blond;
• Dark and black colors;
• Redheads;
• Gray-haired.

All shades are numbered, and the shade number is necessarily indicated on the bottle, this simplifies color orientation and saves you from making mistakes.

Each subgroup has its own peculiarities of using tint shampoo.

For brunettes, in addition to the main black shades, manufacturers offer purple: wild plum from Rocolor, cherry from Estelle or mahogany from Loreal.

The owners light and light brown curls often face the problem of yellowness, which appears when the dye begins to come off the hair. Tinted shampoos and balms for light and light brown hair are designed to fight yellowness. Estelle brand has developed especially a series of shades for light brown strands.

Redheads girls are the brightest and most expressive. They are more likely than others to experiment with the color of their curls. For them, the manufacturer has such shades as: cognac or more dynamic - pomegranate and ruby.

• platinum;
• ashen;
• silver.

Bright pink and blue colors suit any stripes, it depends on the taste of a particular girl.

How to achieve the desired result

To obtain the desired color selected from the palette, you must strictly observe the time toning. If the contact time of the hair and the dye is exceeded, there is a risk of a strong difference between the resulting color and the intended one. Blondes and owners of gray hair should be especially attentive.

Dilute the tint balm with a regular shampoo for a gentle and more even distribution of the product along the entire length of the hair.

This is especially true for dark shades, such as wild plum, their uneven distribution is always very noticeable. Regardless of whether the dye is applied to the natural hair color or to a changed one, it, mixing with it, in the end always gives individual option... That is why it is not recommended to choose a tonic color that is far from the existing hair color. However, you can experiment and mix several close tones in order to get your own extraordinary color, which is not available not only from anyone around, but even from the manufacturers of tint balms themselves.

If you want to achieve uniform color along the entire length, try not to use tinted shampoo for 2 weeks after perm or other manipulations.

However, even with the relative harmlessness of tint shampoos, care is imperative for the curls. Feed them with masks and balms and then they will delight you for a long time and express your unique personality.
