WomanHit.ru will tell you how to turn into a blonde without much loss.

Any woman wants to have gorgeous healthy hair, but due to the desire for novelty, hair can be seriously damaged. Hair especially suffers if its owner is trying to radically change the image, dramatically lightening the hair by 2 or more tones. We will show you how to get blond curls without much harm to your hair.

To begin with, you must decide on the desired hair tone, as well as take into account several factors:

• The hair color you currently have.
• Skin tone.
• Hair condition.

In any case, there are certain risks when dyeing, for example, getting burns, thinning hair, as well as hair loss, so try to follow all safety rules when dyeing and use high-quality dye.

Lighten the hair correctly

Of course, it is best to seek the help of a professional in the salon, especially if you are dyeing your hair for the first time, and the length of the hair plays a big role - the longer the hair, the more difficult it is to dye it yourself.

To get your desired blonde shade, you need to resort to two procedures: bleaching and toning. Without toning, the color will turn out flat and lifeless. This is followed by the selection of an oxidizing agent, the strength of which depends on how many tones you are going to lighten. Professional stylists advise the following:

• The paint must be of high quality. You should not save, because restoration and subsequent coloring in the salon will require a much larger amount from you than if you followed all the rules and used a quality product.
• Do not keep the paint on longer than the prescribed time. The degree of lightening depends on the time indicated in the instructions, if you decide to hold the paint longer, this does not guarantee you a lighter shade at all, you will only ruin your hair.
• After you have completed the dyeing process, use a hair mask, just do it not immediately, but at least the next day. Hair after lightening is weakened and needs to be restored.

How to prepare your hair?

• Again, professionals advise you to follow these guidelines when preparing:
• Eliminate thermal effects on the hair a few days before lightening.
• Do not dye or curl your hair for several weeks before lightening.
• Use a moisturizing mask for a few days before lightening.
• If you have a problem with split ends, get rid of them beforehand, as the dye will dry out the ends even more and your hair will look untidy.
• Do not wash your hair before the procedure, as the color may turn out to be uneven.
• To avoid damaging the protective layer of the scalp, wash your hair 2-3 days before the procedure.

Let's move on to the clarification process itself:

• We choose a high-quality paint, taking into account your hair shade at the moment, if you are going to lighten by 2 or more tones, use paints with gentle components.
• Brunettes will have the hardest part, you will have to choose the most concentrated oxidizer. However, remember that it is impossible to turn from a charcoal brunette to a blonde in one procedure, so you need to act in several passes, and do not choose the lightest shade right away.
• Observe the time interval so as not to rinse the dye along with your hair.
• As soon as you start to experience discomfort, such as burning and itching, immediately wash off the paint to avoid possible allergic reactions, do a small test by applying paint to your hand and waiting for a while.

Observing all the rules when lightening, you will get the desired shade, while maintaining the health of your hair.
