To give the image freshness, the fair sex is ready for the most daring experiments, but it does not hurt to think not only about the temporal attractiveness, but also about the health of the hair. That is why the question is so urgent whether it is possible to combine such hairdressing processes as coloring and lamination.
Technology recovery: the advantages and disadvantages
You can carry out this procedure yourself, but then you should use quality compounds and carefully examine the main requirements. But from the experience of many women it is always preferable to use the services of a professional.
The technology has undoubted advantages.
- Natural hairy formulations, vitamins, natural proteins and keratin are used to wrap hair, while the protective film is capable of passing air. Such a shell fills the porous areas of the hair shaft, seals its irregularities, making the curls smooth.
- The laminated coating retains the color obtained after dyeing until it is washed off, and it is washed out in 1–2 months.
- The hair during the procedure thickens by about 10%, which is very important if it is naturally thin.
- The film formed on the strands has water-repellent properties. This ensures the safety of styling in wet weather, even if the hair is permed.
There are also disadvantages that you need to know about.
- If the hair is very dehydrated and damaged, the result may be unsatisfactory - the procedure will have to be repeated.
- The process takes quite a long time - about 2-3 hours. But it depends on the density and length of the strands.
- When painting after restoration, a new tone can be applied unevenly due to the fact that all the hairs are sealed.
In addition, lamination is an expensive procedure, and despite the fact that sometimes it has to be carried out once every six weeks, this service is not affordable for everyone. The high cost is due to the fact that the quality of the compositions can not be cheap, but this is still a plus the work of the master.
What are the different procedures?
Two procedures are designed for different purposes. Coloring is a change in the tone and color of the hair, in which the chemical composition of the dye affects the hair shafts. And, of course, it is desirable that he was not too aggressive. The effectiveness of this process in the cabin is almost one hundred percent, which cannot be said about its safety.
Lamination is diametrically opposite to the hairstyle: it is the regeneration of curls by wrapping them with the thinnest protective layer of natural cellulose, so you can not be afraid of the harmful effects of the sun, wind and other negative external factors that worsen the structure of the hair.
At the same time, the strands look much better and externally, acquiring natural volume, shine, even their color becomes deeper.
In either case, when ordering such services, a woman seeks to look updated, but not everyone knows that you can combine these procedures, maintaining the vitality, health and beauty of your hair. It remains only to find out the order in which to “optimize” your appearance.
Painting after coating
In combining the two technologies, there are some nuances.It is difficult even for an experienced specialist to determine what the result will be - it all depends on the characteristics of the hair of a particular woman. Therefore, initially you should prepare for two mutually exclusive options.
If the restoration was carried out before and the laminated strands look great, have natural elasticity and elasticity, then staining is acceptable after that. However, you still have to wait for the cellulose layer to descend from the hair. Meanwhile, over time, not only the protective film is washed out, but also the scales of the hair shaft, as a result, it is thinning.
It also happens that the hair loses a healthy appearance after lamination - they begin to crumble. Accordingly, it is impossible to do dyeing right away - it will take some time to heal the strands, and for this, you can use specialized lotions, shampoos, serums and masks (preferably professional ones).
Along with this, it is necessary to reject traumatic hair tools (forceps, curs and thermal rollers), to be dried only in a natural way, eliminating hot air when using a hair dryer.
If the hair has retained its beauty and strength, then the painting should be carried out with the help of dyes in the form of a balm or cream, since such products have a milder effect.
Coloring before restoration
Lamination after dyeing is considered completely natural and even recommended.
It is enough to remember that the indications for this procedure are:
- violation of the structure of the hair and their unsatisfactory appearance due to the use of certain drugs;
- strong electrification of hair;
- increased dryness and porosity, section and splitting of the tips;
- recently produced perm;
- painting the entire length.
In this case, the microfilm will protect each hair from further destructive processes, give them a natural shine, make it smoother, more docile and strong, so that application of the lamination composition after dyeing is always preferable.
Who is not suitable?
However, there are contraindications to this procedure, which make it impossible for some fashionistas.
- Hair is weak, lifeless, thin. While inevitably their weighting occurs during lamination, they can start to fall out.
- For the same reason, the procedure is not recommended owners thick hairbecause the hairstyle will be too heavy.
- Despite assurances of hypoallergenic laminating compositions, with a predisposition to the manifestation of allergies This technology is also not suitable, because various bioactive plant substances are applied to the hair beforehand.
- You can not hold rehabilitation sessions in the presence of various injuries on the scalp, even such small ones as scratches and abrasions, they must first be healed.
You also need to keep in mind that after a couple of months the lamination process will need to be repeated. As for the rumors that once a procedure has to be performed must be repeated all the time, this is a myth. It is not recommended to abuse it, especially with weakened roots.
How is it done?
Lamination of hair after painting - the only correct option, giving the opportunity to neutralize the action of chemical dyes. The procedure is performed using temperature or cold method.
Those who decide to use this service need to know which steps this process involves.
- First, the master must study the type, structure and condition of the hair. Based on this, select the appropriate type of recovery, involving gentle, surface or deeper ion penetration of the protective composition.
- At the second stage, the hair and epidermis of the head are cleaned with a special shampoo.
- Polymer composition, resembling glue, is applied to dried hair with a brush.
- After that, using klimazon, warm the strands with warm air for 15–20 minutes.
- Subsequent actions - washing with a shampoo with a nutritional composition, applying a moisturizing balm.
- In conclusion, the hair is dried and placed depending on the preferences of the client.

The highest quality branded products include kits. Matrix, L'Oreal and Kerastase, Goldwell, Lebel Cosmetics for biolamination.
The main advantage of such compounds is their safety and efficacy, but such professional preparations are expensive.
