Fashion on naturalness: blond with dark roots

In the past, the blonde’s dark ends were a categorical bad example. Of course, even now a smooth strip of black roots is not honored, but at the same time, a monochrome blond has long since not painted. What techniques will help to achieve a fashion effect? And is it possible to make dark roots on a ready-made blonde? Tell us about all the secrets!

Features blonde with dark roots

Just a few years ago the ideal blonde was considered to be a uniform light shade along its entire length. Preferably cold, ashy. Dark roots were disposed of as quickly as possible – blondes were forced to go to the salon almost twice a month. It is as if they forgot about the fact that dark roots are even natural blond girls, and sought for an unreal blond – such as fairytale characters or children. However, the same light shade along the length looks too unnatural – like a wig. In fact, the roots are always darker, and the tips burn out in the sun over time. However, before the hairdressers simply did not come up with the techniques to achieve a light coloring, as much as possible similar to natural.

Now the situation has changed dramatically: “expensive” beautiful blond is necessarily a blond with dark roots. Of course, not with a flat stripe, but with a smooth transition close to natural dark to the desired light. Look at any famous blonde: she will certainly have roots, slightly different in color from the main color. Because it looks natural, stylish, and relevant.

If you are just going to become blonde, then immediately choose this technique. If you have been dyed in total blond for many years, the master will have a little more difficulty – it will be necessary to paint over the roots in the dark so that it looked natural and one color smoothly transferred to another. To do this, came up with a technique of dim out, but about it a little later.

It is important that the contrast is not too sharp. It is not only about the clear boundary between shades, but also about the difference in color. The main thing is the natural effect, and have you ever seen that in nature black roots go-to white hair?

It is important to choose the right shade and apply the paint so that the effect is natural. We tell you in general how professionals manage to achieve this.

  1. Hair is distributed longitudinally. The mixture of the desired shade is applied only to the roots, as quickly as possible. It is important that those areas that should not be colored do not touch the roots.
  2. On the temples and at the back of the head, the darkened areas should gradually become longer.
  3. Each colored strand should be smoothly growing so that the transition is not visible. Some do this with a comb.
  4. After you have withstood the time required for the action of the dye, it is washed off with a special shampoo, conditioner, rinse, and styling hair.

10 tips for the blonde

Blond is beautiful and spectacular, so almost every woman at least once in her life lightened her hair. However, even those to whom a blonde goes can not keep the brightness of color and health of lightened hair, so over time, they are disappointed in the idea itself. Others stubbornly make the typical mistakes that make blond hair look much less effective than it could be.

You will learn about how to choose the right color, care for, and restore bleached hair from this list of rules.

1-3 tips for the blonde

  1. The darker the original hair color, the more time it takes to lighten. We don’t mean the time of one dye, but the need for a gradual transition from brunette to blonde. The most popular types of dyeing for this purpose are Balayage, Shatush, melting, or coloring. The break between stages should be at least two weeks.
  2. If the hair is damaged (perm, straightening, burned out in the sun), it is necessary to restore its condition before dying into blond. Otherwise, firstly, the shade will be undesirable, and secondly, within a short period of time the hair that has undergone such aggressive types of exposure will simply fall off.
  3. In any dyeing, the natural pigment in the hair is partially replaced by an artificial pigment. Therefore, if dark hair has been dyed in any color and has already grown out at the roots, the blonde dye will displace the previous one not completely. But the roots will become much lighter. Thus, you will get not a smooth transition, but strange visual plaques and differences in shades. To avoid this, first, you need to remove all the pigments with a blonding powder, and then do hair toning. Toning dye, besides filling the hair voids with pigment, will cover the hair with a thin protective film, make it healthier and more moisturizing.

4-5 tips for the blonde

4. It is very important that the color of the blonde is compatible with your skin. Often, when coming to the salon for dyeing, customers insist on a certain shade of blond, because such is worn by their favorite actress or some other celebrity, but in the end, this color does not suit them at all. Remember: what suits another woman, may not suit you at all, and vice versa. For example, if the skin clearly has a pink hue, if it tends to redden, you should refrain from warm golden hues of blondes – it will unsuccessfully emphasize the complexion, visually enhancing the redness. If the skin is pale, porcelain, then you should not make ashy shades of color – otherwise, the skin will merge with the hair. But there are also mixed types. It is then possible to use a sophisticated dyeing technique and combine two different shades.

5. The exposure time of the clarifier is determined not by the instructions for the preparation of the mass market segment, but by the condition of hair and scalp. It is also determined by the knowledge of different products. Actually, that’s why blonding is recommended to be done in a professional salon, not at home, and not in a cheap hairdresser’s shop. It is the master who must control the process and interrupt it in time, so as not to hurt.

6 tips for the blonde

6. If a haircut has clear lines, is made in the so-called English straight cut technique, it is more appropriate to make a homogeneous and concise color to emphasize the beauty of form. And if the hair is long, or vice versa, a short torn haircut, the style implies ruffled, it is better to do a complex dyeing technique, so that the color was not homogeneous visually, gave volume and a sense of movement of the strands.

7 tips for the blonde

7. Many blondes are negligent about the coloring of the roots. Out of the desire to “save the hair” girls are too tight with a trip to the salon. Perhaps there are psychological reasons for this: if the hair roots were once burned by an unscrupulous hairdresser, the client begins to be afraid of this procedure, wishing to remain blonde.

But it should be understood that, first of all, strongly grown roots give an unattended look to the hair. And secondly, the lightening colors are very sensitive to the heat that radiates the scalp. Therefore, if the roots are too much grown-up, the roots will have the right bright, beautiful color, and then it will be a little different. In other words, the color will not be homogeneous. Moreover, when tinting up the roots, it is important to tint the hair along the entire length, so that the coloring will look beautiful for a long time.

If a blonde is achieved by means of melting, it is recommended to make a tint between the coloring, which will lighten the roots and give freshness to previously colored hair.

  8 Tips for a Blonde

8. Hair that is dyed in blond is more porous than other dyed hair, and even more uncolored, so the pigment is washed out faster. Clarifying dyes, and even more so powders, even the most gentle ones, make the hair dry and brittle as the pigment and care products in the toning dye wash out.

Revitalizing and nourishing procedures in the salon will have a greater effect not only because the master can professionally select a whole cocktail of products individually for your hair, but also use special equipment to ensure that all the nutrients penetrate deep into the hair shaft. After that, the only thing left at home is to maintain the salon effect.

Being blonde is a lot of work, and you should accept it. It is not enough to make up a blonde once and leave the salon as a beauty. You need constant care – and regular visits to the salon, but special procedures at home.

  9-10 tips for the blonde

9. Blondes are also recommended for independent use only professional products that are used in beauty salons – shampoo and conditioner for every day, as well as a mask for deep moisturizing once a week. It is very important to have at home also a care product with dye, which would enhance and refresh the color on their own between visits to the salon. The next stage is indelible sprays and conditioners, which remain on your hair until the next wash and protect the color from external influences. Blond hair, especially long hair, is also prone to cutting, so it is very important to use oil-based care, such as serums and elixirs with argan oil in the composition for the tips and length of hair.

10.Clarified hair usually needs active moisturizing. At home use masks with amino acid complex, seaweed, vegetable oils. Emphasis is on the tips of the hair. That’s why it would be useful to buy a special product, for example, in the form of a spray. If the hair is badly damaged (and this usually happens after self clarification), give preference to more “strong” products: regenerating masks and concentrates with keratin, proteins, lipids, minerals. In this case, salon procedures are especially recommended, for example, keratoplasty – the quick restoration of the damaged hair structure by saturation with keratin.
