In this case, with loose hair, it is almost invisible, and therefore it will not interfere with strict style. In general, creative dyeing is performed on hair of any length.

Kinds
Conventionally, all types of creative coloring of curls can be combined into two large groups. This is the so-called screen and block methods. Each of them has its own characteristics.
Futuazh
Stencil dyeing consists in applying a previously prepared pattern on the hair through a stencil. The technique is quite capricious in the choice of hair and is suitable only for straight curls: on them the pattern is visible well, without distortion. In this case, the ideal length is considered average. As for the wavy strands, then with all the desire and straightening after washing, they can take on a natural structure. In this case, the drawing on them will not be visible.
Stencils for coloring are prepared in advance. This may be a stylist's option or a picture created individually, taking into account the wishes of the client. The favorite prints of such painting are peacock tail, leopard skin, python skin. And it can also be a colored lizard, a chessboard, clouds in the sky, Scottish.
Pictures can be made in realistic colors or in the form of stylization.
Blocks
The name itself defines the essence of the technique: in this case, the head of hair is divided into several parts and paint each of them in a certain color. At the same time painting can cover not only the whole head, sometimes it is performed on separate strands. As well as the technique is variable in that the transition from one shade to another can be both sharp and smooth according to the ombre principle. The blocks can be colored differently, but matching the size of the pattern with the length of the hair here is a key condition for the harmony of painting.
Such staining is complicated with an increase in the number of contrasting colors involved in the work. In addition, the appearance of the haircut and its length are of great importance. For example, a short haircut will require the prior manufacture of a painting scheme.
Block coloring is distinguished by the fact that it is better for him to use not toning paints, but resistant dyes, which will not be washed out too quickly, making the hair untidy and dull.
Interesting tricks
One of the unusual types of hair dye is segmental staining. To accomplish this, the stylist initially develops a mock-up of a hairstyle, and then performs a specific haircut, taking into account the position of each centimeter of the future pattern. After that, the master begins to paint, creating interesting drawings, often in a geometric theme.
Pixel staining is a complex type of painting. It can be done by a highly qualified specialist.This process is quite laborious and difficult in terms of work. It takes a lot of time to complete it, even if the selected pattern seems quite simple. This coloring looks stylish and impressive, even if it takes up a small part of the hair.
Both segmental and pixel techniques are performed exclusively on straight and smooth curls.
If the structure of the strands is different, there is no point in resorting to such techniques, since the drawing will be either distorted or imperceptible at all.
For wavy as well as straight hair you can use splashlights technique. It involves staining the strip transversely to hair growth. In this case, the strip is first clarified, and then painted. When coloring the strip can be single, and also there can be several of them.
As for the hair color, in this case more clearly the contours of the pattern are visible on the dark hair. In addition, the base can become an ombre with its characteristic smooth transition of the base color to a lighter one. Red hair can be decorated with black pattern. If you want to paint light strands, for the picture you should choose dark paints that will stand out on such a basis. And also the blond goes well with blue, bright orange and burgundy tones of paint.
How to make at home?
Despite the fact that the coloring is best done in the salon, some women of fashion prefer to conduct experiments on their appearance at home. For example, you can paint one bang, temple, upper third of the hair, one side. Consider the nuances of each technique.
Stencil Painting
Before you begin to dye your hair with a stencil, the curls are combed well, combed back and slightly sprayed with varnish. This is necessary to make it easier to transfer the picture, excluding flaws in work and fuzzy contours. After this, the stencil is fixed on the head with the help of special clips, which are usually used by hairdressers. Now you can begin to print.
The picture with the cut holes is drawn with a brush, paying special attention to the contours. The paint is kept on the head for the time specified on the packaging of a particular manufacturer. After this, the stencil is removed, the hair is washed, not forgetting to fix the result with hair balm. When this technique is performed "on time", the result is fixed with varnish. Upon arrival home, the paint can be washed off with warm water.
Block painting
In this case, individual blocks are painted from root to tip. This can be done both on short haircuts, and on medium-length hair and even on long curls. To color the blocks, use foil and prepared dyes, which are applied to the strands and wound. After the allotted time, the paint is washed off with warm water. It can not be perederzhivat, because it can harm the hair.
This type of dyeing looks particularly impressive on haircuts such as bob and bob, including its asymmetrical variety. Diversify haircut can bang, which can be normal, oblique, thick retro style or milled. If you plan to paint on dark or even black hair, you will have to pre-whiten them, otherwise the pigment may not come from. Light strands are easier to paint: here they immediately paint strands with different colors.
