Every girl likes to change something in her appearance. The easiest way to do this is by coloring. Coloring is a fashionable coloring that involves the use of several shades. As a rule, we are talking about natural tones that allow you to create natural highlights and play. But modern masters also possess techniques of creative coloring in bright colors. With this hairstyle, any girl will be in the spotlight.

Features

Today, it is increasingly possible to see girls who have several shades in their hair. The choice in favor of coloring is due to the desire not only to diversify its usual appearance, but also to preserve the hair. After all, it is quite harmful to lighten all hair at once, and over time it becomes very difficult to maintain their healthy well-groomed appearance. When coloring different colors complement the main hair color, resulting in a more voluminous and original hairstyle.

The method is applied to both smooth and curly hair, more often on medium and long than on short.

The technique resembles the usual highlighting: colored strands appear only as bright accents. Often, a cap or foil is also used for the procedure. In the first case, the hairdresser selects strands from the total mass of hair: it is convenient when working with short and thick locks. When working with a cap, thin strands are pushed into the microperforations, and as a result of the technique, the color transitions turn out to be softer. Red hair is combined with strands from blond to shimmering coffee. Dark - with strands from red to purple, and light - with cranberry, lilac strands.

Kinds

With all the variety of options for coloring all of them are divided into two large groups: vertical and horizontal.

  • Vertical Coloring implies dyeing hair in many shades, as a result, it seems that each strand is slightly different in color from the other.
  • Horizontal coloration - it is, as a rule, no more than 4 shades. To perform it, you need to divide the hair into several parts and paint each one in its own color, with the darkest used from above and the lightest at the ends.

    Basic technology

    • American coloring. Includes 5 similar natural shades, perfect for dark-haired women.
    • "Salt and pepper". Suitable for blondes, allows you to hide gray hair or to disguise the gray hairs that appear, because the lightest shades are placed at the roots.

    • Neon coloring. These are very bright strands, as a rule, they are made on a dark background. Before you apply screaming shades, curls are lightened. The result of this staining can not be called persistent, but a couple of weeks, it looks very impressive.

    Advantages and disadvantages
