When talking about natural hair coloring, where should you start? First of all, with the fact that hair coloring with vegetable dyes is harmless.

With the help of these dyes, you can get different shades of hair. But it should only be noted that natural dyes can act differently depending on your natural hair color, on its thickness and on individual susceptibility.

And so, where do we start?

Onion peel for hair coloring

Onion peel is a useful hair product, with which you can not only color, but also strengthen your hair and get rid of dandruff. A special compound, quercetin, was found in onion skins, which dyes hair in orange-reddish hues. You can simply rinse your hair with its decoction.

Leave the mixture on your hair for one hour, then rinse with warm water.

Gray hair will take on a straw-yellow hue if you rinse it with strong brewed black tea after each wash!

Hair coloring with rhubarb is a fairly ancient method.

This plant contains orange-yellow chrysophanoic acid, which will give your hair golden hues. Depending on the color of your hair, you may get straw yellow or light brown shades. Dig up rhubarb roots at least three years old in the spring, chop and dry in the shade. If this is very difficult, buy ready-made at the pharmacy.

For short hair you need 10g, for long hair - 20g,

for very long ones - 30g of dry rhubarb.

Pour the crushed root with 200 g of cold water, boil for 15 - 20 minutes, stirring all the time so as not to burn. A thick mass is formed. It must be cooled down and allowed to brew a little. Sometimes a pinch of baking soda is added to give a dark brown tint. Rhubarb infusion is added to pure henna so that the bright color inherent in henna becomes more muted. In this case, the proportions are observed - 30 g of rhubarb powder and 70 g of henna powder.

If you have blonde hair

and you want light brown with a golden or copper tint, then after washing your hair, rinse your hair with the following composition: pour 2 tbsp. tablespoons crushed rhubarb roots 1 cup cold water, put on fire and boil for 15-20 minutes with constant stirring, then cool and strain.

Gray hair.

If you use rhubarb to color gray hair, you will get a blond tint.

Look at the colors here...

Hair is one of the main decorations of every woman. But what if your hair is not as beautiful as you would like it to be? Today this problem is solved quite simply. There is such an abundance of hair colors in our stores that it just makes your eyes run wide! So that's why you need to know exactly what you want to get as a result of staining, so that there are no unpleasant surprises.

So, before you dye your hair, you must decide on the color. What do you want to become: a blonde or a brunette, or maybe even a redhead? If you have decided on the choice of color, then you should decide where you will do it. Dye your hair at home or in the salon - it's up to you. At home, of course, it is cheaper, but in the cabin it is more reliable. There you definitely will not become unexpectedly bright yellow or pale green.

How can you dye your hair? Today, there are four types of hair dyes: bleaching, chemical, physical and natural dyes.

bleaching paints

Bleaching compounds are used with an oxidizing agent, which is based on hydrogen peroxide. Reacting with the pigment of the hair, peroxide makes them light. These compounds are used both for bleaching hair for further dyeing by other means, and as a main dye. For example, before you dye your dark hair a lighter color, you must first bleach it, otherwise the dye simply will not be taken, and your hair will acquire only a barely noticeable shade.

Bleaching is a serious process, and it is better to carry it out in the salon with an experienced hairdresser. If you choose the wrong oxidizing agent or overdo it on your head, you can burn your hair, and instead of a new beautiful hairstyle, you will have dried straw on your head.

Chemical paints

These dyes react with keratin to change the color of your hair. They partially destroy the pigment, penetrating into the hair structure, due to which the color is stable. The composition of these paints also includes an oxidizing agent. And you can choose any color.

You can paint the entire head with one color, or you can paint only individual strands or tips. Young girls have recently preferred tip coloring. How to color the ends of the hair? The tips are also bleached first if the hair is dark and then dyed with chemical dye.

physical paints

These paints are chemically inactive, having only a superficial effect. They are quite easy to wash off the hair, as they have only a superficial effect and do not penetrate deep into the hair structure. These are tinted shampoos, balms, soft paints and foams. The degree and duration of coloring depends on the type of hair: if the hair is hard, then the shade will not last long, if soft and porous, then the color will be more resistant. However, such dyes are not suitable for dark and heavily bleached or gray hair. On dark ones, you will not notice anything, and gray or lightened hair can be dyed unevenly, and stains will result.

natural colors

These dyes do not change the structure of the hair, but penetrate it with the help of biologically active substances that have a beneficial effect on the hair, improving their appearance and condition. They are very durable. These dyes include henna, which dyes with red tints, and basma, it dyes black (but only with henna; without it, basma will dye the hair greenish). But there is one downside. Coloring should be carried out by an experienced master, otherwise if you make a mistake with the color, then it will be very, very difficult to correct what has been done.

So, dear girls, before experimenting, think carefully about what you want to end up with, and if you decide to experiment, then let a knowledgeable and able person conduct it.
