Varieties of hair coloring:
Airtouch
“Touching the air” is the literal translation of the name of the staining technology. This method combines the long-lasting technique of highlighting and the desire to respond to the spirit of the times. Hair before processing is divided into strands, and then blown with a stream of air from a hairdryer, so that about 30-50% of the original volume remains from each of the strands. The paint, as in ordinary highlighting, is applied indented from the roots, blurring the line as much as possible, which allows to achieve a glare effect in the hair.
• Gentle attitude to the hair: it is not the entire volume that is lightened and dyed, but only the selected strands.
• Visual increase in the volume of hair: it is created by obtaining a thin glare.
• Anti-aging effect: due to color contrasts, the face becomes fresh.
• Durable result. Growing roots invisible, which allows to increase the intervals between visits to the stylist.
• Ability to achieve the effect of shiny hair (with the right selection of matching dark and light shades).
Single tone staining
Hair tinting
This is a gentle coloring with the use of special tint dyes, without the use of ammonia and hydrogen peroxide. The toning procedure is performed in order to give richness and depth to the hair color. Your hair is given a different shade with a few light tint. Since the cosmetic products used do not touch the inner structure of the hair, but only paint its skin, you can often change the tone of the hair. Keeps toning from two weeks to two months, and its cost is lower than the usual staining. Due to the fact that the dye is washed off gradually, the hair looks well-groomed and neat for a very long time. Toning products also contain in their composition caring complexes, which provide the hair with a healthy and shiny look.

This kind of coloring can touch as part of the hair (tones of paint are applied under the natural hair color to create contrast or harmony), and the hair throughout the volume (the natural shade of hair is completely replaced), making it more feminine and original. Magically, it is able to give a visual pomp and visible volume even to thin hair, after such a procedure and the simplest haircut is transformed, providing room for creativity - you can slightly change the color of your hair just by combing it to the other side.

The service varies quite noticeably.
The masters of the beauty salon "KOMILFO AT LENINSKY" have extensive experience in this area and,
at the same time, we work at very reasonable rates.
Looking through the numerous photos of hair coloring, you will see a real riot of colors and types of multi-colored hair dye. Indeed, women and even sometimes men resort to this procedure for different purposes. Some want to revive their natural hair color and give it naturalness, others - driven by the desire to surprise others.
When performing creative coloring with the use of very extravagant colors, customers will be offered washable dyes that allow you to try on the image for a short time, for example,
for a couple of weeks.
Hair coloring is longitudinal or transverse: in the first case, different shades are applied along the entire length of the strands, and in the second, the strand is conventionally divided by the master into several parts and starting from the root, tones are applied from darker to lightest so that the transition is quite soft. The master recognizes the transversal coloring as more progressive - it reveals the professionalism and taste of the colorist, and besides, it provides a very durable result, since growing, the strands at the roots do not create a sharp contrast with the colored area. This method of hair transformation becomes the most interesting finding on cascading haircuts, as it gives the strands their own individual colors.
When performing multi-color coloring is used from two to twenty shades close in tone. This is the best way to emphasize the texture of hair on thin hair and give it volume.
You should not try to experiment at home - you cannot do a quality and beautiful coloring yourself, its success and your attractiveness are directly dependent on the skill of the barber. The more subtle and elusive the transition from shade to shade, the more
service will be professionally performed.
Avant-garde style with the use of dyeing strands in bright and unnatural tones (red, blue, purple ...) with skillful selection will emphasize creative haircuts and breathe new life into classic ones. Small bright strishochki capable of long straight hair or a trivial "bob" turn into a real masterpiece of hairdressing, which will make you the center of attention.
If you are lucky to be born as a blonde, then the master will choose the coloring for blond hair depending on your skin tones and eyes in warm honey-strawberry or reddish tones. A good solution will also be a certain “cooling” of hairstyle with ashy strands, up to quite catchy frosty chestnuts.
Light coloring
imitates the color of hair that has burned out in the sun.
If your natural color is light brown, then you have your most suitable color palette. Coloring blond hair involves the use of natural colors and tepid colors. For example, chocolate, brown, red and brick shades. A very fashionable idea for blond hair can be a mixture of “red coral”, “cyclamen” and a shade of “chili”. It would be nice to use the principle of "pyramid", which divides the haircut into several color zones.
Coloring dark hair to obtain a visible effect involves the preliminary brightening of the hair. Unusually successful on almost black hair will look ashy or platinum strands, as well as various shades of red. Owners of such hair with the help of dark coloring can radically transform their appearance, revitalize their hairstyle with chestnut tints or dilute, for example, with a shade of mahogany and those close to it. You can add to the hairstyle and a few light strands. Such a transformed head of hair will rejuvenate your face and give it freshness, as well as coloring the tips of your hair. Such a technique of coloring will allow you to better define the structure of the haircut, give it bulkiness.
Coloring in chocolate and coffee tones will be the most effective for red hair, and in addition, with bright copper or bleached strands. For example, the shade of "copper" is a very sophisticated combination with "bright blonde" or "golden coffee" tone. Natural hair color will not only “come to life”, but will also acquire a certain shimmer.
Much depends on the initial hair color and their structure - the same colors and types of coloring on different hair look different. Having trusted in professional colorists from the beauty salon “Coral” in St. Petersburg, you can be sure that the result of their work will exceed all your expectations and will add sophistication and stylish completeness to the image you create.
The purpose of coloring is to create a sense of natural color. To do this, stylists paint over the lower and upper hair in different colors, choosing at the same time, or close to each other shades, or vice versa, contrasting. In the end, it turns out the principle of natural color transition, which creates an internal glow of hair, which emphasizes the haircut and gives the hair volume.
Coloring "Ombre"
Coloring "Ombre" - the hit of the seasoncoming from the podiums and red carpet paths. This is an exquisite smooth transition of shade from the darker at the roots to the lighter at the tips. This creative coloring with a blurred border horizontally: the hair color of the roots smoothly flows to the other at the ends of the hair. The root of the hair is painted in a dark natural color, and the rest in a lighter color, or vice versa. There is a variety of 3-tone ombre color.
Specialists may use different names for this type of coloring, namely: Ombre staining, degradation, balayazh, baliyazh, transverse or horizontal coloring, dual tone coloring, stretching the color.
Judging by how many star stars of Hollywood (see photo) today have already chosen Ombre for themselves, this type of coloring does not completely lose its position this season.
The classic version of the coloring "Ombre" is a two-tone coloring with a blurred border horizontally, that is, the hair color at the roots smoothly flows into another color at the ends of the hair.
Different colors of “Ombre” are allowed, but the most popular still is the two-tone dyeing using as close as possible to natural shades: chocolate, coffee, light coffee, light brown, beige, nut, honey, copper, amber, wheat.
The effect of the so-called “grown bronding” is very fashionable, when the upper, root part of the hair is dyed in a darker, natural color, and the rest of the hair is dyed using the technology of brondirovanie hair in lighter natural shades. This type of dyeing looks very impressive, both on dark and brown hair.
As mentioned above, the color range of "Ombre" can be varied, depending on age, style of dress, profession and lifestyle. Extravagant and creative individuals can choose brighter and bold combinations of colors, for example, a transition from platinum-white in the roots to black tips, and, as a transitional color, the introduction of the 3rd shade is possible.
Another type of Ombre staining,
when the border between different colors is not blurred, but clear. At the same time, the most diverse colors can be used, from natural to very bright, including blue, red, pink, purple, lilac, yellow, black, white, red, etc.
For the owners of short hair and medium-length hair this season also offers a variety of stylish options for coloring "Ombre", both in natural colors and in color creative variations.
Booking
booking examples
Booking- this is a very fashionable technology of hair coloring this season using highlighting and multicolor coloring, with the help of which the most natural effect of a soft overflow of colors is achieved.
Hair brondation optionsmaybe many: the effect of burnt hair and strands, the effect of glare, the play of several colors, for example, in a golden-brown gamut, a soft transition from dark to lighter color, tint framing of strands on the face or contour of the hairstyle, the effect of "floating", smoothly flowing into each other other shades, etc.
The color solutions for the BROND dyeing mainly lie within the limits of chocolate, brown, coffee, Russa and golden-beige gamut with light elements of the blond. Although other options are possible.
We would like to draw your attention to the fact that in the fashionable "BROND" you can switch from almost any hair color, which many foreign and domestic stars have been doing with success lately.
When booking, the brightest strands are made particularly thin so that it is possible to achieve a certain game of play. As a result, you will have a bright saturated color that few people can distinguish from the natural. Bronding hair should be done not from the very roots, but departing from them at least 1-2 centimeters. This will achieve the effect of increased hair volume. The procedure is quite expensive, depending on the thickness and length of the hair, which will be spent on paint. The work of the master takes about 2 or 3 hours, after which you will leave the salon in a new image with stunning hair.
Hair highlights
This is a method of dyeing hair with individual strands in light colors. Not all hairs are subjected to the coloring procedure, but only a part. The order of the strands is varied and often depends on the desired effect. The highlighting procedure is carried out using a “cap” or on a foil. When highlighting, regrown hair roots are less conspicuous in comparison with the usual coloring. In contrast to the full coloring, the highlighting procedure can be done less frequently, since after the hair grows, the highlighting is done only on the roots. Also highlighting gives the hair a visual volume. Contraindication to the procedure is a recent henna dye or perm.
Hair bleating
Blondiroving is a variant of lightening, when the hair is given a color much lighter than the original. The essence of blonding is the complete discoloration of the hair pigment. Blonde hair is best suited for blondes.
Decaping
Decaping - a gentle method of removing coloring components from hair, removing color that is not amenable to removal with standard clarifiers.
Hair decaping is of several types: superficial and deep. Deep decaping of hair is carried out in extremely rare cases, for example, when the hair has been dyed many times and multicolored spots have formed on it. Superficial decaping of hair removes the main color to the previous state. In common people, the method of decaping hair is better known as a color remover.
Modern tools allow you to make the procedure of stripping as sparingly as possible.
Hair care after dyeing
Do not forget that proper home care after dyeing hair - half the success for a long lasting result. Be sure to listen to the advice of an experienced hairdresser. Optionally, in the cabin you can also purchase professional colored hair care cosmetics from the best global manufacturers.
It is also important to know that bleach, sun and sea salt, can change the color of your hair, and even harm. Therefore, in the sea, and if you often visit the pool, spend more time on hair care.
Hair coloring at home
Hair coloring - and especially highlighting, coloring or toning - complex procedures that require a responsible approach to work. Therefore, you should only trust the professionals. Dyeing hair at home, especially household dyes can lead to unpleasant consequences - very low quality of coloring and color, as well as serious damage to the hair.
It is very important to correctly determine the color, choose the concentration of the oxidizer and determine the absorbency of your hair. At home, this is almost impossible to do. In the beauty salon "Komilfo on Leninsky" the master will do everything for you, using only professional cosmetics, which will permanently ensure the color stability without damaging the hair.

The opportunity to be stylish
The fashion for various "feathers", reviving almost any hairstyle, appeared in the eighties of the last century. Since then, the palette of techniques of masters who proudly call themselves colorists has expanded many times, and with it the terminology has changed. Currently, the term "highlighting", which once meant only the lightening of hair strands, includes toning (coloring) - coloring strands. Only the effect achieved by this process remained unchanged - with the help of lightening or dyeing individual strands, the hair seemed to acquire additional volume, luster and brightness. Highlighting can gently emphasize the dignity of hair. It is ideal for those who seek to hide the emerging gray hair. Its undoubted advantage is the fact that grown hair does not require regular color correction, as it happens with full dyeing. In addition, it is one of the most benign methods of changing hair color, allowing you to keep them in good condition.
When highlighting, one or several contrasting tones or tones that blend into each other are used, so it is appropriate to compare the work of the master colorist with the work of the artist. In addition, the technology of highlighting involves a wide freedom of decision. In combination with traditional haircuts, these methods - whether bleached “feathers”, able to revive any hairstyle, multi-color toning, which gives elegance to the most ordinary haircut, or dyeing strands with contrasting colors - always contribute to creating a complete image. You can, for example, shift the focus to a specific element of a haircut, say, a fringe, or you can highlight a separate strand in color. Hair toning in different shades also looks modern - provided that this achieves a harmonious combination of colors and lines.Not uncommon today and hairstyles, the creation of which used up to 18-20 shades! By the way, the use of such a technique has led to the refusal to dye hair with wide strands, and now preference is given to smooth, hardly guessed transitions. The color depth during highlighting can also vary. Due to this, the so-called color graphics are especially popular - a picture made, say, in the shape of a triangle or a prism. The visual perception of the volume here varies depending on whether the figure is the base or the top of the parting. In addition, today there are a considerable number of graphic compositions - from laconic geometric shapes to the most sophisticated ornaments.
But, like all creativity, hairdressing is actively developing. To the delight of customers, all new forms of services are constantly being invented, allowing them to create bright, memorable models. Of course, in each case, the choice depends on the individual wishes of your visitors. Therefore, in order not to be trapped, you should be fully armed. Let's get acquainted with some of the basic techniques in more detail.
Classic highlighting (through the cap)
Classical highlighting is usually performed using a latex-made cap. Tightly worn on pre-combed hair, it is fixed under the chin with ribbons like a hat with earflaps. Masters with many years of experience do not recommend putting long or medium-length hair under a cap - it is better to just cover them with a napkin. Then, with a special hook, strands are pulled through the holes in the cap. Their width, as you know, should be about 1 mm, and the amount depends on the wishes of the client, and on the thickness of his hair. If a client has ordered you with a “parting” hairstyle, then the strands closest to the parting may be at least 1.5–2 cm away from him. And only after this difficult operation has been completed, does the most crucial stage occur: on the formed strands with a brush a bleaching agent or paint is applied. Well, then everything is easy, familiar and simple: dyed hair is rinsed with water, and after removing the cap, they are thoroughly rinsed with a care shampoo with balm - quite naturally, if you give preference to the salon line of drugs that you use all the time. However, most of us already know that the classic mode of highlighting is the simplest and least time consuming, especially for short hair. However, since the “classic” lacks the ability to accurately apply color combinations, the use of this technique eliminates the creation of more complex compositions, which significantly narrows the range of possibilities of the creative master. In these cases, colored foil acts as a magic wand. Recently, both highlighting and toning with its use has become, perhaps, one of the most popular ways of giving hair a rich, saturated color. Of course, this technology takes more time, but it opens up much broader prospects for us. It is unlikely that there will be a professional who would not come across this material in daily activities, so we recall only two basic rules for working with colored foil.
The first - and most importantly: do not forget that the foil of a certain color should correspond to the tone of paint chosen by you. This will allow you to alternately alternate colors, and greatly simplify the process of dyeing for you. And if you pre-cut the foil strips 10-12 cm wide, then the preliminary stage does not take much time. Secondly, when “cutting” the foil, remember: the length of the material should, as a rule, be twice the length of the strand. As for the process itself, various options are possible here, depending on the technique you were taught in courses or workshops. As an example, we will cite an almost canonical method: dividing hair into zones, we take a strand 3-4 cm wide and “sew” it with its comb- “tail” so that the thinner strands obtained as a result will be on top of the comb. Masters with experience for applying dye composition to their hair are most often used in two proven methods - manually and with the help of so-called “strippers”. "Stripper", as a rule, is used for dyeing hairs 25-30 cm long. It is a comb with a special nozzle, in which holes are made. Thus, when combing the hair, the lightening or coloring mixture applied to the nozzle evenly colors the strands. After the coloring process is completed, the hair is treated the same way as in the cases described above. But, of course, whatever adaptations modern technology offered us, the hands of the master will not replace any device.
After the client's hair is divided into zones, the brightener or dye is applied with a brush, applicator or directly with protective gloves. Manual highlighting technology in professional slang is called “freehand highlighting”. However, whichever of the methods we give you use, the essence of the process will remain the same. After you apply the coloring composition to the strands, wrap each strand with a foil of a specific color. The hair is not grilled chicken, and this is done not “for warmth”, as some people think, but in order not to stain the adjacent hair and at the same time mark the tone used, which we already mentioned above. The “Final” is unlikely to raise questions even for completely green interns: free the strands from the foil, rinse them with water, rinse with special care products for dyed hair - and the client will rise from the chair, transformed and contented. By the way, the described technology is also perfect for toning and highlighting long hair.
Want to be an artist? Be it!
Highlighting is an extraordinarily exciting process. He opens up the widest range of possibilities before the master. This is the creation of a bright image, and the search for a unique style, and the excitement of inspiration, similar to that experienced by painters who create their paintings on canvas. Become a creator - and your "works" will play with all the colors of the rainbow! There are many ways to achieve this. It is likely that, having mastered any of the techniques presented below, in the future you will experiment with color yourself and create something of your own - something special, unique. We will conduct only a brief insight into widely used methods, on the basis of which you can create your own masterpieces.
Highlighting techniques
"Balayazh" It is customary to refer to one of the most gentle techniques of highlighting. It is characterized by coloring only the tips of the hair. At the same time, hair is dyed by the open method “by hand”, as a result of which thin, as if “air” strands are obtained. Looks impressive on short and graded haircuts, but it is not suitable for long hair.
"Marble" is the toning of the entire mass of hair with the subsequent highlighting of individual strands with the help of a brightening preparation. For example, light brown hair, tinted reddish-brown in a new shade, acquire a deeper and more saturated color, and bleached locks add volume to a hairstyle.
"American" highlighting is a rather complicated process from a technological point of view. No need for a mixture of at least 3-5 juicy, saturated shades of the dye. In general, the richer the color range, the more original the result will be. For example, to obtain the popular effect of "solar hare" dyes should be close to each other tones. But, if the reception was successful, the multi-colored “glare” will give the client's hair a natural look and an impression of greater volume.
To do this, it is necessary to start the dyeing procedure from the occipital zone, choosing a shade that is closest to the client's natural hair color. Then, wrap the finished strands into a colored foil, each color corresponding to a certain hue of paint, as mentioned above. After the coloring of the occipital zone has been completed, the remaining unpainted hair must be separated by direct parting and in pairs in the same color of the strands on the left and right sides of it in the direction from the temples to the back of the head. And remember that you should start again with a shade that is closest to the client's natural hair color. The same process of coloring the last pair of strands is completed by this method. You will achieve the main effect - the color harmony of all three coloring zones. Unless, of course, when you label the strands of the color of the foil. Usually, “American” highlighting is recommended for dark hair of any length.
Equipment "Frost" designed for owners of thick wavy hair - just turning it off with hoarfrost, it emphasizes the volume of lush hair. In this case, highlighting is performed in stages. First, to slightly straighten the hair, wet them. Moreover, as experienced masters say, even in such a seemingly simple matter there is a small subtlety: to fix the strands, the client must tilt his head down, so it is easier to make the “recalcitrant” curls take the desired position. When this happens, carefully apply the previously prepared brightening compound to the top layer of dried hair with fingertips. Highlighting technique called "Glazing" designed for hair, the maximum length of which does not exceed 12-15 cm. For a start, fix the client's hair with mousse. When the hair is dry, evenly apply the brightening mixture to the dried ends of the hair, then rub the composition. If you repeat the massage procedure 3-4 times, you can be sure that your client will not be disappointed, and the result will exceed all expectations. "Creative" highlighting, or Crazy colors,- the very name itself eloquently indicates that in this case we are talking about extreme sports. Indeed, this technique will most likely interest clients who like to experiment with their image, because, you see, dyeing hair in contrasting blue, green, purple colors requires sufficient endurance and courage. Although it is known how Crazy Colors looks spectacular on curly hair. Sometimes the paint is applied directly on top of traditional highlighting, that is, you paint an already bleached strand with a special unstable gel.
Equipment "Dalmatian" Also suitable for wavy hair. Those of you who have already met her in practice know that the coloring process starts from the bottom of the head area. But before this, of course, it is necessary, as always, to separate the hair into strands. Usually, knowledgeable craftsmen apply a lightening agent to each individual strand in a staggered manner. The exposure time depends on the desired brightness of the spots - the longer the process of clarification, the brighter the "bunnies".
Toning: technology
The most famous and popular tinting technique "Glare" best able to give your client's hair volume and movement. It is quite simple to do this: with radial partitions located at a distance of 1.5 cm from each other, divide the hair into strands, and then apply on them selected shades, which mark with foil. This relatively simple tinting technique can achieve an amazing color play!
If the glare effect is based on color contrast, the method is called "Triad". It is characterized by gentle, smooth transitions of tones. Such "watercolor" is achieved by dividing hair with zigzag partings into three zones. Separate the strands from each other with foil and start coloring from the lower - occipital - zone. For her, it is better to use the color a couple of tones darker than the client's natural hair color, for the central zone - a tone darker. The upper - crown - zone in the “triad” is made the brightest. For example, if your client has dark blond hair, then by choosing a golden-red scale, you will be able to give them warmth and brightness. Due to its simplicity and presentable technique "Circuit" popular with visitors to beauty salons. For its implementation we advise you to take two bright contrasting tones, for example, from the red and violet range. Then, along the hairline, in a zigzag parting, separate a “ribbon” 3–4 cm wide from the general hairline. You apply one tone to selected hair, and the other to the rest. And the "circuit" is ready!
In the technique "Spey" and truth is something cosmic. Her indispensable attribute is an elegant wide strand, different from the general tone of the hair, which adds to its owner mystery and charm. As it is well known to masters with experience, this space equipment is related to the complexity of its creation. But - “bad is the soldier who does not dream of becoming a general.” First of all, focusing on the side parting, form a strand on the triangle of the parietal zone. And so that it does not get dirty, wrap this strand in foil. On the same free hair do general toning. Then, after washing the dyed hair, remove the "armor" from the stored strands. Put your “stash” with a comb as on a frying pan on a long sheet of clean foil, apply a thick layer of dye on it, especially closer to the roots, and then spread it over the entire length of the strand. Now you just swat your “space” strand with another sheet of foil. As the saying goes, "Zigzag" - it is also a zigzag in Africa - this toning technique can be easily recognized by its fancy ornament. And it is achieved as follows: zigzag parting the hair of the parietal area of the head into separate sections. Then, putting the foil as close as possible to the roots of the hair, bend its edges, and apply a thick layer of dye mixture. Then put on the painted strand the next sheet of foil. And keep in mind - the wider the strand, the stronger the color contrast.
Technique "Sharp" You can confidently recommend to customers who emphasize the length of their hair, as well as the volume and contrast hairstyles. Fold a long sheet of foil in a V-shape and, putting the foil under the bang, fasten with terminals. Just as in the previous case, the coloring composition is applied in layers - that is, another sheet of foil is put on dyed hair. After the end of the cycle, the foil is removed and the hair is thoroughly washed. Not everything that is simple is ingenious, but unconditionally, everything that is ingenious is simple. This is sure to remember when you use for toning technique Slender. If you have previously stocked up with thick paint, consider, half the work has already been done. Apply it with a thick layer on the teeth of the comb and gently press in a clockwise direction through the entire volume of hair.
As in the technique of vocal there is no "trio in two voices", so in the technique "Duet" not used more than two colors of paint. Simply put, "Duet" involves two-tone toning, and here it is almost impossible to "fake", which is worth noting for beginners. Separate the hair with horizontal partings into sections 2-3 cm wide and, starting from the upper zone, alternately tint the selected areas with two shades. You must admit that such a technique is hardly a tricky process.
No matter how old-fashioned the word "retro" may sound, everything connected with it still has a unique charm. The toning technique of the same name was not an exception, for which, first of all, it is necessary to make a “old-fashioned” parting. Parallel to him, using a comb with a “tail”, select the strands 1 cm wide and use the darning method to put a sheet of foil under them.After that, a dye is applied on the selected strand with a thick layer, and it is wrapped in foil. So, step by step, the area or the entire volume of hair is stained.
Advice on each color
Needless to say that when working with coloring compositions one of the most important moments is the right choice of colors and shades? Of course it is! Indeed, besides creative intuition and artistic taste, there are certain canons and rules of color. For example, any competent master knows that the natural colors of human skin, hair and eyes belong to the same color group, since they are colored with the same pigments. Consequently, when choosing colors, he will be guided by variations of these particular shades. Another way - the "seasonal" classification of the color spectrum. Its essence lies in the fact that literally all shades are combinations of several primary colors. Those dominated by the red and yellow parts of the spectrum belong to the “warm” tones. Combinations in which the dominant role is played by the colors of blue shades are called “cold”. Those who would like to brush up on this knowledge can learn in detail about these two popular techniques in Table 1. We hope that this will allow you to increase the accuracy of the correct “hit” when choosing a color. But the rest - create, invent, try! And do not forget that the secret of any masterpiece is quite simple: masterly technique and creative approach.

Features of dye selection
Due to the popularity of the procedure, many manufacturers of hair dyes offer special formulations specifically for highlighting. As a rule, they include not only paint, but also protective equipment for hands, as well as a cap, oxidizer and hair conditioner after dyeing. But the paint itself can be in three main consistencies:
- powder composition. Such paint will require preliminary preparation, so it is not very convenient to use. As a rule, this type is used by professionals, since it requires experience and skill to prepare the composition, but along with this, the powder has the strongest coloring property,

Traditional highlighting technique
Classic highlighting is considered the easiest to use at home. So, you only need a hat with slots for the strands, hair dye, a brush and gloves to protect your hands.

- Put a special cap with cuts on your head and evenly distribute the strands,
- Pull the strands with a fine comb with fine teeth,
- Apply with a brush or with gloved hands dyeing composition and wait for the time, according to the instructions.
Traditional highlighting is considered to be the simplest, but it can give a variety of effects to the hair, depending on the color of the dye and the method of dyeing. There are several varieties of classical techniques:
- monochrome. Only one color tone is used, the paint is distributed evenly throughout the whole strand with a brush. The length of the strand in this case may be different - from 3 to 7 centimeters,
- Venetian highlighting technique. This method involves a smooth transition from light to dark hair. It adds color and dynamics to color.
- Californian. In this case, only small horizontal strands are used. Moreover, the paint is applied with vertical strokes, thanks to this technique, the composition does not penetrate deep into the hair structure, only slightly brightens them,

- American highlights on dark hair. With this technique, special formulations are used for coloring, which create the effect of the flare of hair. Lightening in this case is quite insignificant.
Coloring with foil
Highlighting with foil is considered one of the classic ways to partially dye hair. The procedure itself is quite complicated and requires some training and experience. To carry it out, you will need a lightening compound (no matter in what form - powder, oil paint or cream), a brush for applying the product, foil for dyeing, gloves for hair. Often, ready-made kits for this method are sold, so you will not have to buy everything you need separately.
- prepare all that is required for the procedure. If the foil is in a roll, then it must be cut into strips up to 10 centimeters. Put a towel on your shoulders so as not to spoil the clothes
- divide hair into several zones - occipital, frontal and lateral, fasten them with pins or hairpins. Chelku best cleaned separately. Coloring is most practical to start with the lower strands on the back of the head, the direction of the brush should be from top to bottom,
- using a comb, separate the strand of hair and select from it several narrow strands of equal width and length. Place the foil under the selected part of the hair so that its bend is in the area of the roots - this will save from the effect of dye on the scalp,
- paint with a brush
It is necessary to begin to paint not from the roots, but at a distance of 1 centimeter from the beginning of hair growth. Fold the foil in half, covering this curl.
- Separate the next strand and secure it with a hairpin or hairpin - it should not be painted,
- Spray the next curl in the same way as the first one, neatly wrapping it in foil. Do the procedure over the entire head, alternating each strand,
- Keep the ink composition on the head, according to the instructions. And the darker the hair, the longer it takes to keep the paint,
- after painting remove all foil pieces from the head and thoroughly rinse your head with running water without using shampoo.
Do not forget about the care and nutrition of hair, as well as after any other coloring.
Hair care after the procedure
After dyeing the hair will require special care, because they will become weaker, more susceptible to adverse conditions than natural ones. Therefore, it is very important to apply nourishing cosmetics - masks, balms and conditioners.

As with any other procedure, the highlighting has some drawbacks that must be taken into account when going to the hairdresser:
- The duration of the procedure. Depending on the selected highlighting technique and master qualification, you will have to sit in the chair for at least an hour, or even all four.
- It is recommended to carry out highlighting only on absolutely healthy curls. If your hair is currently weakened and actively thins, first go through a complex of wellness treatments.

- The cardinal lightening of dark curls, as a rule, does not do without the use of aggressive chemistry, the effect of which on the hair structure can not be called positive.

How much will it cost
Coloring is a rather time-consuming process that can take 2 hours. Turning to the salon, you can spend about 2-5 thousand rubles, depending on the length of hair, the prestige of a hairdresser's establishment and selected dyes.
If you are not a supporter of preliminary entries and expectations in the cabin, then You can easily make highlighting at home. The advantage of such a procedure will be its cheapness: the cost of an oxidant is about 50–200 rubles, and dyes - 450–950, depending on the brand. In the case of tinting hair after highlighting, you will have to pay an additional 250-400 rubles.
But there are some downsides:
- you can pick the wrong color
- without taking into account the structure of your hair, buy too "nuclear" oxidant,
- acquiring poor-quality cosmetics, you can achieve unpleasant red curls,
- it is very difficult to paint over separate parts of the head independently due to their inaccessibility.
That is why we recommend to go to a professional hair cosmetics shop and bring in a mom or girlfriend for painting. Among the professional brands of cosmetics we can advise Estel, Igora, Cutrin.
To suit
This option of coloring goes to all without exception. Regardless of whether curly or straight, long or short, natural, gray or dyed hair, this option will favorably emphasize the beauty of your hair, refreshing the image.
We do not recommend highlighting women who have just done a perm, pregnant and lactating. It is advisable to abandon the classical method of dyeing and those who have unhealthy and heavily split hair. It is better for them to pay attention to such coloring options as ombre or balayazh.
When selecting colors, be guided by your color type:
- if you have pale skin and bright eyes (blue and green), stop choosing cool shades: wet sand, graphite, beige, pastel pink, ashen, mother of pearl blond,
- owners of the “summer” color type (peach skin, brown hair and any pigmentation of pupils) should select shades with zolotinka (wheat, golden walnut, caramel),
- if you are naturally a blonde, all shades of blond suit you best,
- burning amber beauties fit amber, brandy, nut and copper shades.
For fair hair
Blondirovanie - this is the version of the classic highlighting, which involves painting curls in shades of blond. Among them:
- mocha,
- sand,
- light beige,
- mother of pearl blond,
- ashen,
- and even muted pink.
Note, the use of ashen color is especially important for women in whom gray hair begins to erupt. Proper execution of the technique of highlighting using ash shades will hide gray hair. We also recommend that you familiarize yourself with ash highlights, which paint is best used for its implementation.
Light-blond girls who want to get rid of annoying mouse color, we recommend choosing gold and honey shades.
The photo below shows how harmoniously honey color looks on blond hair.

In the following photos you can observe how harmoniously the color of ocher and golden walnut on blond curls looks.
How to choose the right dye
Make highlighting at home is not so difficult.
For this you will need:
- cream paint of the selected color
- activator lotion for lightening hair (3-9%, selected depending on the structure and color of your curls),
- ceramic or plastic pot,
- brush for applying the composition,
- comb with a tip to highlight strands,
- hairpins, clips,
- foil.
Just need a lot of foil, because it must seal each strand. If you have too long hair, you should buy a small roll of this material.
Choosing a clarifier:
- If you have dark hair that is too thick, choose oxident 9–12%.
- An oxidizer with the designation of 6% is the best option for lightening normal hair.
- For thin and light strands, we recommend choosing 3% oxidant, which will change the color by 1–2 tones.
Do dye staining for the first time? Then be sure to test it for an allergic reaction, putting a little coloring composition on the skin of the wrist or elbow.
Performance technique
Of course, highlighting can be carried out through a special cap. She is dressed on her head and crocheted by individual strands. After applying the dye, they are not wrapped in foil, but left to interact with oxygen in the open air.
An important point! There are people who are contraindicated for hydrogen peroxide - it can cause edema. They are recommended to use a hat for highlighting, which will save the scalp from getting the coloring composition.
But in order to make the painting as spectacular as possible, put a similar cap aside, and arm yourself with an ordinary foil.
The stages of highlighting:
- Lubricate the scalp and ears with petroleum jelly or a greasy cream. Cover your shoulders with an old waste towel or a special cape.
- Mix the dye with the oxidizing agent in the proportions specified by the manufacturer. Usually, when highlighting, it will take 2–3 times less money than painting all the hair. Even if you have long curls, one pack of paint may well be enough. To restore your strands immediately after the aggressive influence of an oxidizing agent, add to the dye an ampule of a chromoenergetic vitamin complex, which you can buy at a professional cosmetics store.
- Comb your curls and distribute them into 4 zones: parietal, crown and temporal areas.
- Cut the foil into strips that are 2.5 times the width of the selected strands. Increase the foil length by 20 cm (take the length of the curls as a reference point).
- Select the desired strands and place a foil under them with a curved edge of 7 cm above. Brush out the dye on the selected curls.
- Bend the free bottom edge of the foil up. Seal the strands on the sides. Remember, the material must completely cover dyed hair.
- So color the whole head.
- As soon as the exposure time comes to an end, unpack the strands and begin to rinse the curls in the same order as you dyed (that is, starting from the back of the head).
- Use the balm, which, as a rule, always comes in a package with a dye.
An important point! Remember, at the temples dye is taken the fastest, so you need to start coloring from the back of the head.
When tinting stained strands, wait a couple of days, letting your curls recover after bleaching.
Do not forget about proper care for dyed hair. Try at least once a week to pamper your hair with regenerating masks and natural oils. Do not forget about moisturizing curls.
It is mandatory to:
- wash your hair no more than 3 days,
- don't comb your wet hair,
- refuse hair dryer, ironing and pleyoks,
- use shampoo for colored hair,
- regularly trim the split ends.
Thus, the traditional highlighting of individual strands along the entire length is a classic of the genre, which has not lost its relevance. When resorting to this procedure, it is important to choose the right color and coloring composition, as well as to comply with the technology to perform this type of painting.
We are sure that at the exit you will find an amazing result that will make the curls “alive” and the appearance even more attractive.
