Today, ashen blond is one of the most popular shades. You can completely dye your hair gray or make ashen ombre, balayazh.
The main thing to remember is that immediately dye your hair in ashen color will not work. First you need to discolor them (they will be yellowish), and then tint with the desired shade.
Is it true that ashen blond is the most fashionable hair color this year?
Today, chocolate hair color and red are in fashion. And blondes are recommended to choose warm shades, for example, wheat blond. Strawberry blond is also relevant.
But what about ashen?
Ash blonde is popular regardless of fashion, because many blondes can not stand the yellow tint. For most, this is a sign of either poor-quality staining or that it is time to go to the master, since the ashes washed off and yellowness "climbed".
It is really difficult to achieve an ashy blonde, especially if the hair is dark. It will take several times to bleach the hair to achieve level 10, and only then can you tone it with an ashy shade.

What hair dye to choose to get an “ash blonde”?

It is important to understand that this hair dye is not able to lighten dark hair. Therefore, if your shade is below level 8, you must first discolor the hair. For this, powder is used. A 3% or 6% oxidizing agent will do. You can also do a wash, for example, Estelle has a good preparation.
In general, if it is planned to lighten hair and only then tint into an ashen blond, it is better to choose professional paint and a low percentage of oxidizing agent 1.5% or 3% for this procedure. From the colors you can choose Igora, Estel, Estel Esex or De Lux, Wella, Koleston, etc.
How to dye your hair in an ash blonde at home?
It is quite possible to dye your hair yourself if you adhere to the rules and follow the instructions:
- First you need to buy an ash or violet tonic paint and the most gentle, gentle oxidizing agent with powder in order to discolor the hair. (If you want to test the paint, you need to apply a small amount of the product on a separate strand of hair and skin behind the ear).
- We dilute the powder with an oxidizing agent and apply it on curls, starting from the tips. Rinse off and proceed to the next step.
- The next step will be the application of paint to the hair roots, moving smoothly to the ends (divide the strands into partings for this). It is advisable to apply paint to dry, unwashed hair, because if you dye clean washed hair, you can burn the scalp, especially for those with sensitive skin or prone to allergies. If you chose not a paint but a tonic, just after washing your hair, apply a tint toner and hold for a couple of minutes.
After dyeing your hair, we recommend using shampoo specifically for dyed hair, because regular shampoo flushes the dye and vitamins that are contained in the dye. (This applies to the first shampoo after dyeing.) Well, to preserve the shine of the hair, after dyeing you can use balm or conditioner.
Girls who are afraid to experiment with paints and change their colors to blond, but want to change something in themselves, for a start can try a tinted balm (tonic) for hair.
