A reddish ombre is a paradoxical mixture of choice and no need to choose. Do you want to change the hair color and at the same time leave it natural? Ombre dyeing for dark, light, short and long hair is the way to this dream. Is it possible to do this staining yourself? How to choose a tone?

Features

How to become catchy, while remaining natural as a result of the only and rapid manipulation of appearance? One option is a red ombre on the strands of your hair, staining with a smooth flow of one color to another. This technique, taken from life and rethought innovators hairdressing. She is creates the illusion of curls faded over the summer, using not natural forces, but achievements of chemistry in the field of coloring agents. Based on uneven color change.

Under natural conditions, strands sometimes fade from the sun, or, when painted, gradually grow. At some point, this random effect was adopted by the stylists. Since then, the pattern from “dark to light as if through burnout and regrowth” has undergone many metamorphoses.

Ombre technology is constantly being improved. The scheme, originally applied to dark hair, becoming more versatile, is used to transform light. Ombra are simultaneously used 2-3 shades (sometimes more). They are not necessarily natural. Picturesquely looks on curly curls.

Ideal for lengths below shoulders and more, but also applies to short hair (with some limitations). A red ombre is the introduction of juicy, bright shades of red, yellow and intermediate red. Color changes may occur in various variations.

Contrast tones can be applied both to the roots and to the tips. The color palette varies according to needs.

Advantages and disadvantages

pros

Red ombre is inherent ease of execution, no need to dye hair completely. The task of regular staining of the roots loses relevance. The exceptions are situations in which you want to involve in the dyeing of your natural hair along the entire length.

Or there are gray strands that you think you need to paint over. Can vary intensity, paint only part, without affecting the roots. To the extent that the paint is applied exclusively on the tips, without exposing the bulk.

Even with such proportions, thanks to the contrast and richness of red and yellow tones, the effect of the game of the sun's rays that you have chosen and implemented will be read with the naked eye.

In the future, with repeated staining, you have the opportunity to change the color of the glare, the number and design without special restrictions (or to support the picture created initially). Smooth transition from dark to light, palette of golden-copper and copper-sand in the strands of strands visually increase the volume of hair. The flashiness of the red ombra does not come into conflict with the styling, weaving, and pile, these elements saturate your image without contradiction between them. Such coloring can be quite made independently at home.

Minuses

If your shade is dark, and you try to get a light red tone from the roots, this effect will be quite aggressive, as in the case of any bright pure shades not at the ends, but on the main mass. Some stains are achievable only through tinted clarification.. By doing this procedure exclusively at the ends, we affect a smaller amount of hair than when dyeing them from the base.

Therefore, it is necessary to weigh the pros and cons and decide what chemical reaction you are ready to expose your hair to. And choose: either apply the paint only on the ends, or still paint from the roots, but in a muted and calm tone, with a smaller amount of clarifier. In these two cases, the effect of dyes will be less intense, because the effect will be achieved by tinting almost without clarification.

You can use the third option (most are painted in that shade, for which you need a lot of brightener), but with an increased risk of damage to the hair. In any case, if you are doing hair coloring, they should be care. If you often use exactly the third variant of exposure from dark to light, brittleness will increase, especially at the ends. And it will be necessary to replenish so much, how often it will be necessary to liquidate the color of natural growing hair at the roots. For example, with the dominant tangerine or red color, noticeable light brown roots will bring disharmony and damage to the aesthetics of your hairstyle.

The concept of ombre suggests a calm attitude to the growth of natural color roots, in the above case the technique remains, but the essence is still alienated. Is it possible to take the need for constant care as a minus? But mention of this is necessary. Dyed hair requires regular procedures to correct and maintain color (re-dyeing, use of tinting agents, special shampoos) and care for the condition of red hair. The brighter the shade, the quivering need to ensure that it is less washed out.

If you are now inspired to make an ombre using fiery shades, but have recently been painted or subjected to chemical perm, you will still have to postpone the procedure for a while so as not to spoil the hair.

Choice of shades

To achieve a positive result, the hostesses of short hair are recommended to pay attention to a number of points. The described type of coloring implies an artistic distribution of 2-3 shades, hence the observation that it is technically easier to “stretch” the color on long hair. Therefore, limiting yourself to a small length of two varieties, you increase the chance to do it carefully (especially if you decided to do it yourself at home, without resorting to professional help of a colorist).

This advice does not apply to cases in which you are an inquisitive experimenter who takes responsibility for the final picture. Or a situation in which you are in the hands of a professional. The use of ombre on short hair depends on the haircut.

If you have a short haircut with asymmetrical strands, a multi-layered haircut, and you want to complement it with a red ombre, the result promises to be particularly impressive.

Average The length has attractiveness for any actions with hair: it is convenient to dye, style, comb. The same rule applies to ginger ombre. Restrictions in the choice of justified at most only your individual characteristics and wishes.

If you are ready to experiment with the entire length from root to tip, there are many beautiful options, for example, rich red at the roots, smoothly passing through the orange highlights in the warm sand at the ends. Haircut layers in medium length, "ladder", haircuts with hair of different lengths, with smooth or underlined transitions, plus a red ombre - the perfect combination.

If the presence of long hair you coincided with the desire to make a more red ombre - this is the potential for a bright amazing result. In a larger area (compared with short and medium hair), you can create a visual masterpiece with colors.

Can do complex gradient with more than 2 colors.The amount of work increases, of course, but at the same time the risk of a sharp, non-artistic and unsuccessful transition between tones mentioned in connection with short hair disappears. If the color stretching begins, for example, below the earlobes, you can emphasize the magnificence of the color with styling with curls that start to curl in the place where the stretching begins.

The most logical and sparing example of a red ombre is that if you have a naturally reddish hair, suppose it is copper-colored, and a transition to golden honey at the ends is created. This example demonstrates the classical ombre technique as a transition from dark to light on natural hair. The roots, growing back, do not discord with the color of the clarified tips, only the ratio of their hair and dyed changes.

If your color is natural blonde or dark blonde, it remains on the roots, and one (or several) artificially created by staining will be smoothly added to it. shades of red or yellow. When hair grows back, if a harmonious transition has been created, it looks completely natural, again, only proportions change.

Options for blond hair

As already mentioned, the origins of technology - in the burning of dark curls to lighter shades. The circumstance that our hair grows unevenly, spontaneously gives rise to an uneven transition. Uneven and at the same time so picturesque that you can leave it to grow as it is, without repainting the roots.

Technologists and colorists began to imitate this effect with paint, after some time a beautiful idea attracted attention and fair-haired girls. The colorful option for blonde hair can be like flashes of flame: from saturated red through gradient to gold at the tips. This is a gentle and bright transition, very feminine.

Fascinatingly beautiful options interweaving shades of fire red, tangerine, coral, strawberry, with white inclusions. When choosing a dyeing scheme, the important point is the color of your skin, eyes, natural hair color - what the experts typologized and called the “color type”. Girls of the types "spring" and "autumn" palette of flame shades is perfect in all variety.

For girls like "winter" with dark hair and light skin tones are good Not only red-yellow, but also auburn, a mixture of red and brown, such as mahogany (consisting of warm red and rich red with a brown base), burgundy (bright scarlet mixed with brown), ruby ​​(dark red with brown tint). “Summer” - light-skinned, fair-haired and light-eyed will suit the natural palette, calm and warmth: copper cast strands (for example, honey from above and through a gradient turning into tangerine tips) or transition from honey and wheat roots to orange).

Ideas for the dark

The choice of red and yellow accents on dark blond, chestnut and black hair depends on your mood, goals and objectives. You can choose calm solutions that are close to your hair shade, the root zones will not be very different from the hair at the ends. Their main charm will be expressive highlights.

Contrasting, active colors will attract attention with eccentric fiery flashes, saturated and sharp. The more polar colors, the stronger the contrast, so brunettes have excellent opportunities for the desired result. You can touch only the ends, you can more and change the color of the area, which starts from the middle part, you can start, only a few centimeters away from the roots.

The main thing - the awareness of how you want to see yourself. So, the options are:

  • black curls and copper tips;
  • black at the base, passing through the red-red in the sand-gold closer down;
  • black as a raven wing and not warm and tender copper, namely bright red hair edges;
  • black and dark red;
  • from chestnut through coral-red to honey.

If your hair belongs to the range from light brown to black, the colors of mandarin, copper, chestnut and red are good as additional tones at the tips. You can go further and modernize the scheme of the classic ombre by changing the color of the basal part to the dark-red one and go through the bright copper inclusions to the endings in golden honey, sand, straw. Several factors should be taken into account: the length of the hair, the manipulation of the hair before deciding on dyeing, the natural hair color and skin color.

The choice is yours, but there are some general recommendations of stylists, observations about patterns that are good at helping to navigate.

Staining technology

The feature of ombre is that it is possible to carry out coloring by this technique. Coloring at the master colorist is more important because he has more knowledge, skills and experience. A professional stylist will be able to carry out coloring in 3 or more levels with a gradient, and this is aerobatics, which is inaccessible for independent coloring. Although with regular workouts in dyeing it is possible to acquire the necessary skills over time.

If due to circumstances visiting the salon is not available, and you have decided to self-dye your home, spend your hair preventing damage during lightening with moisturizing nourishing masks, it is preferable to start in a few weeks.

Before dyeing not recommended to wash your hair. Except for those cases when you did styling the day before using strong clamps, then it is better to wash them off. Wash off, but do not use after washing hair balm. For the first home coloring, it is better to buy paint with the inscription on the Ombre box and first take 2 shades - darker and lighter. Paint needs a brush, bowls, gloves, a cape, face cream, a hairbrush and a balm.

Thoughtfully read the instructions and follow it, find and remember the reaction time of the paint on the hair. Take your time, learn everything in advance. Paint as soon as the mixture is ready, if it were possible to leave the mixture for a long time, the producers would not have found it difficult to deliver it immediately in a mixed form. A chemical reaction has its own duration, starting after a certain amount of time has passed, you break the technology. Do not use a metal comb.

Put on a cape, brush your hair, divide the strands into several parts, protect the skin near the hairline with cream or petroleum jelly, do not forget the gloves. Apply paint to dry hair. Specialists in creating a gradual transition put paint first on the tips and gradually using a brush raise the dye above, moving it from the edge. When the application is finished, watch the time, after the end of the required period, carefully rinse and apply balm (if you buy ombra paint, you can use the one that comes in the kit).

Aftercare

After staining, the following shampooing for 24 hours is not recommended. Refrain from styling products so that their components do not impede the absorption of paint pigments. It should be well consolidated. Purchase shampoosthat interact properly with pigments, less washing them out.

There are shampoos labeled "for colored hair" and caring products that simultaneously prolong the brightness. Be sure to pay more attention to the tips, moisten oils, serums. Correct unnecessary yellowness with special shampoos.

Trying on a redhead, you begin to associate with a temperamental, bold, resolute, sometimes relaxed and bold. If you are hesitant about this, but really want to try - take the first step. Start with the simplest and closest to natural color, gradually enter into harmony with the new yourself and complement the image with new shades.
