Before you decide on such a bold transformation, it is recommended to get acquainted in advance with all the features of such coloring, its varieties and methods of implementation. All these nuances will be discussed in detail in this article.
Advantages and disadvantages
It is worth remembering that color staining has a number of positive and negative characteristics that must be taken into account. Among the positive aspects of such hair dyeing are the following.

It is also worth taking into account some of the disadvantages of multi-colored staining.
- The safest it will be only for girls who have naturally blond hair. Dark or previously dyed curls will need to be discolored, depending on the brightness of the shade you want. The bleaching procedure, in turn, is quite harmful. It makes hair tougher and changes its structure.
- Kohlers quickly lose their original brightness, especially if you often wash your hair. With each wash, the colored pigment is washed out little by little, and over time it will be necessary to re-dye. For some colors, you can choose a special conditioner that supports their durability, but this solution does not exist for all shades of the color palette.

Even more time will be needed to create a complex color coloring, which includes several shades or color drawing. Also in the salons of this service will be expensive.
- In most cases, after having colored strands, it can be difficult to give the hair a uniform, natural tone.
Who is suitable?
Before you opt for color dyeing using particularly bright or acid colors, consider the fact that this hairstyle should be combined with your lifestyle and profession.If you work for yourself and are not limited to a different kind of dress code, or you are a representative of the creative profession, bright strands will most likely successfully complement your image.
But if your occupation is connected with official events, children's or social institutions, then too bright hair may not make the most pleasant impression, you will be taken lightly.
This may ultimately have a negative effect on your career growth. Therefore, in such cases, use the color color to a minimum.
If we consider the original hair color, the bright strands are suitable for owners of any natural shade. However, for each color certain combinations look most advantageous. If you are not going to dye your strands completely, then a combination of cold shades, for example, blue or violet, is perfect for natural dark hair, and various shades of red will also look beautiful.
Blondes can create a pearl-like effect on their hair, using soft pink or lilac tones. Owners of light strands often paint their hair completely with color, because there is no need for additional bleaching. Sometimes, if bright color is used as an accent, blondes choose a few curls and give them the desired rich tone.
Fair-haired young ladies should choose a color based on their own natural pigment. If your hair is dominated by a cool blond, stop choosing different shades of blue or blue-green. If your natural color has a warmer pigment, then you can easily afford to use pink or even brighter shades for dyeing.
If you want to combine natural red with colored strands, then turquoise is a good option. Also red-haired girls are perfect color ombre with the use of red or golden hues.
It must be remembered that an important criterion is the degree of damage to the hair. If you have dry brittle strands, it is not recommended to add color, especially if the procedure also requires clarification.
It is better to heal your curls first, making them softer and more docile.
