For bright and creative hair coloring often suitable for short haircuts. The fact that the variants of hairstyles with braids or curly curls on short hair is an impossible task does not prevent from creating an effective and stylish look. Short hair is often more flexible for styling, as opposed to long, and this is their indisputable plus. It is also easier to care for them after dyeing.

It is necessary to determine the type of staining in advance, even at the stage of choosing a haircut. This will make the most harmonious and thoughtful hairstyle - the master will know exactly how to cut you and how the color will fall after applying the paint.

Even if the hair is already short, you should think about a haircut.

Types and features of staining

In addition to fashion trends and new products, the choice of color and hair style depends on such factors as the structure of the hair, their color, the shape of the head and other important details, with which a competent stylist will help you. However, there are several basic options for painting hair, which will be great for both long and short hairstyles. Let's give some examples.

Plain or monophonic

This option is the simplest and can be applied to any type of hair. As you can guess from the name, when performing this type uses one color. The popularity of this type of coloring contributes to the simplicity - it can be implemented without any problems with one's own hands, which greatly saves time and money. The main thing is to pay special attention to all the nuances so as not to spoil the hair or not to be mistaken with the color.

Monotonous hair dyeing technique is not as simple as it seems at first glance. For example, if the hair was dyed earlier, then the probability to get the wrong color, which is planned, increases significantly. In this case, you should first treat the hair with a special composition to wash off the pigment. In addition, the paint falls on a different hair color differently, and these points should also be taken into account.

In the cabin, you do not have to worry about such things, but when self-coloring should be careful. Perhaps the usual pack of paint will not be enough to implement the entire process. It is useful to get advice from more experienced people or to conduct a detailed collection of information on the Internet.

If the solid color does not suit you, you can pay attention to more interesting colors and creative style of hair.

Highlighting

This is a stylish coloring, which includes 2 colors. The point is to lighten the individual strands, which creates a beautiful pattern and texture. Even very short hair is suitable for this type of dyeing, it is widely distributed also among men.

Highlighting can be divided into several variations, which have their own names and differ in the technique of application and the structure of the pattern.

  • Classic highlighting suggests evenly colored strands over the entire length.
  • Reverse implies blackout of individual strands and is intended for fair-haired girls.
  • Block highlighting it is distinguished by its courage and creativity; different colors in different sequences are used for realization.
  • California differs in creating a smooth gradient from root to tip, it is important not to confuse it with ombr. In this case, the strands are also stained over the entire length, but the concentration of clarification towards the ends is much higher.

You can count a couple of dozen variants of highlighting, however, it is worthwhile to separately tell about several types in more detail.

Ombre is one of the most popular types of highlighting.

Ombre

The essence of this coloring is to create a gradient from the roots to the ends of the hair. There are several options for ombre. As a rule, the roots do a little darker and lighten the tips of the hair. The pattern and texture of the ombre may vary depending on the type of hair and the specific style of coloring. The border of the gradient is made both clear and as blurred as possible, creating a smooth transition.

The most common classic ombre, when two close to each other shades are applied to the hair, forming a smooth gradient, and thus creates the effect of sun-bleached hair. This look looks natural and emphasizes any image.

However, there are non-standard solutions, when a transverse gradient is formed, or bright colors are used for dyeing.

Ombre, like any other type of highlighting, can be attributed to a complex type of staining, so it is not recommended to perform it yourself. There is a great risk of getting the effect of regrown hair that did not know the care of the last few months. In addition, it will be difficult to create a smooth transition on your own and eventually you will have to go to the salon and make a correction or even complete repainting.

The disadvantages of the ombre also include the high cost of execution, but if you are sure that you want to create an image with this type of coloring, do not spare the money, damaged hair will cost much more. Basically, ombra is applied on long hair or on medium length. With very short hair, everything is not straightforward, but it is possible to dye it on this technology. Perfect for dark and blond hair, but this option is more difficult for blondes. The transition to blond hair just do not work, so they first have to be painted.

On average, the dyeing procedure lasts one to two hours, depending on the complexity, but there are times when it takes more than four hours to paint.

Repeated staining is recommended approximately in 3 months.

Shatush

It can be considered another popular highlighting option. Shatush is more suitable for owners of dark-colored hair, although it may also suit blondes, but the choice of this style for blond hair can leave dubious impressions. Like all variants of highlighting, shatush tends to create the effect of sun-bleached hair and makes it as natural as possible. It will perfectly fit under tanned or tanned skin. The essence of staining lies in the selection of random strands all over the head, with the shade shifting to the bright side quite a bit.

The technology of staining is different from ordinary highlighting. In the process, the strands are combed, and the paint is applied in small strokes. In this case, all this is done on the open hair without the use of foil or cap.

With short hair, this type of coloring, unfortunately, is rarely friendly, but a skilled master will find a solution. Unlike ombra, the execution of shatush coloring is much faster and takes an average of 40 minutes. Repeated procedure is recommended after 3 months.

Booking

Another subspecies of highlighting. Here the painting of the strands occurs as unobtrusively as possible, the drawing does not have much contrast. For execution, several similar shades are used; application is made by an open method without using foil. The result is a natural hair color, usually dark, with light, light streaks.

Brondirovanie great for both short hair and hair of medium length. Most often, this method is used in conjunction with four or more specific short haircuts.For example, cascading haircuts very well show on themselves the pleasures of brondirovaniya. Unfortunately, the haircut "under the boy" will not let this style unfold, it simply will not be noticeable.

Most suitable for dark hair. With blond hair, difficulties may arise, but, as in one of the previous methods, you can resort to dyeing the head, followed by bronzing.

The procedure takes about an hour, re-staining is recommended approximately in 3 months.

Balayazh

This method of dyeing hair, along with highlighting, involves dyeing individual strands, lightening them from root to tip. However, it has several features. It is mainly characterized by the application - it is made with a brush with sweeping movements, like sweeping, which literally translates to French as “balayaz”. This style is perfect for short hair. Mostly only external curls are colored, and the bulk of the hair practically does not change its color.

Balayazh can be made in the most natural and close to the natural color tones or be bright and combine many shades. Its execution is possible on both dark and blond hair. As with any other form of highlighting, it is not recommended to carry out the procedure with your own hands.

For equipment balayazh colors are selected individually, and in order not to be mistaken, you should pay attention to the services of a qualified colorist.

Drawing takes a long time, approximately about 2 hours. It is considered a rather complex type of staining, so you should pay attention to the previous work of the master.

As a rule, paints with aggressive substances are used. Dye your hair again after 2-3 months.

There are a large number of variants of highlighting, they are distinguished by the method of application, the achievement of a natural effect or the principle of choosing a specific texture. This is only a small part of what stylists offer today. Often, the hair does not have enough volume and here the coloring method will help you, which is designed to solve this problem. In some cases, it is called 3d coloring, but initially it was called simpler.

Surround

This option has a huge number of variations of colors and texture, but most often the color is chosen as close as possible to the natural tones. The technology vaguely resembles highlighting, but here, due to the correctly selected palette and texture of the application, a visual volume is created. Hair shimmers in a natural way, and those areas that with a voluminous hairstyle should be in the shade, darken.

Dye your hair this way will not succeed in his own hand, and in any case will have to contact the salon. Before you begin the procedure, it is recommended to look at the previous work of the master to make sure that he is qualified.

This technique can be implemented on both dark and blond hair. The procedure of volumetric dyeing is safe, and in contrast to lightening, as when highlighting, the dye does not disturb the hair structure and does not dry it. Another advantage is the lack of need for correction. The color is chosen in such a way that even when the roots grow, this is completely unnoticeable.

Volumetric coloring has come to the industry not so long ago, but already has several varieties, including coloring options with the addition of more specific colors and textures. The coloring procedure is simple and does not take much time. The whole difficulty lies in the selection of colors and shades.

Departing from the classic coloring and natural tones, you should pay attention to fashion trends. These include bright colors.

Here you can use either one single color or several, which creates a contrasting color. It is important to choose the right tone.

Shade selection

Bright staining, as a rule, is widespread among young people. This is a modern and creative solution, which began to gain popularity relatively recently. Along with this, the masters began to offer various techniques and styles of bright coloring. The most common color can be considered pink and its shades. Following the fashion, not only girls, but also aged women, are increasingly thinking about dyeing their hair in a bright color. There is a fairly large selection of bright hairstyles.

On the other hand, after 40 years, it will be much more relevant to choose more restrained tones. During this period, it is too early to think about age, yet many women are embarrassed by their appearance against the background of young girls. The desire to feel younger is peculiar to any woman, even if there is no need for it. In this case, stylists offer to choose short haircuts in bright colors. Recommended colors are close to natural, a couple of shades lighter than their own.

Dark color symbolizes a certain rigor and restraint. Although dark visually and does not age the face and does not add wrinkles or other signs of age, it makes the image more strict, which makes many seem much older than they are.

Young girls, on the other hand, often have dark colors or contrasting colors. The combination of colors such as black and red, will create a bold image, referring to the punk culture. This is a great choice for car owners or other short haircuts.

Cascading haircuts or hairstyles with longer bangs will also look great. For coloring and styling often the choice falls on asymmetrical haircuts. They can visually add volume and will fit into any modern look, from simple and easy to strict and business.

In addition to the length and structure of the hair, it is also important to consider the original color when dyeing. After all, different shades will fall completely differently on brown hair or golden. It is worth referring to an experienced colorist, as repeatedly mentioned in this article. Self-staining entails some risks. The problem of the wrong selection of color for your hair remains relevant. In addition, girls often spoil their hair in attempts to lighten it even more.

When dyeing blond hair is important to pay attention to the composition of the paint.

You should not choose resistant paint with a high content of fixatives or ammonia.

Since the structure of blond hair is naturally rather thin, it is worth paying attention to the light paints with a small percentage of oxidizer.

It should be attentive with some shades. For example, a chestnut with an incorrect application can result in a completely different color, as a rule - red. And there are quite a few such examples. It is worthwhile to carefully study this issue and compare all the components. The use of the cheapest paints is also not recommended. They will not cause great harm to the hair, but as a result, the color can be completely unnatural. The only good thing is that in such a situation he may not hold out for a long time, because cheap paints do not differ in durability at all.

If the plans to paint the head in a dark color, it is advisable to contact the stylist.In the salon you will be helped to determine the color, the choice of paint, make the right preparation for painting and the procedure itself.

Blond hair perfectly amenable to tinting. Here, in a variety of shades, you can already get lost. It is important to remember that any color can be in fashion, but for a certain color type it does not always fit.

For dark hair, the rules and recommendations for coloring are somewhat different. Different shades may behave completely differently on dark hair. Here it is important to pay attention to the preliminary lightening of the hair - without it, the result will be as unpredictable as possible. This step should also be approached wisely. To get a uniform lightening and even color after dyeing, it is worth lightening hair not immediately, but gradually.

Depending on the structure of the hair, the concentration of the lightening compound may vary. If the hair is thick and hard, the maximum concentration is chosen, which usually ranges from 9 to 12%. With thinner hair, respectively, the concentration ranges from 3 to 6%.

Specialists in beauty salons, as a rule, have a lot of experience, will be able to give a reliable assessment and will carefully select a method of clarification and coloring for you. There is no need to worry about such things.
