I do not know what's happening. Women are still crazy about ashy shades. Looks like this color will always lead the fashion trends.
Why? It is very difficult to obtain, difficult to care for, expensive to maintain (every two weeks plan a trip to the salon), it is very easy to lose. Look, all these epithets are very suitable for a woman. Perhaps that is why ashy hair color is love forever.
Who will go ash tint?
Let's start with those to whom he will not go. If your skin has even the slightest flaws: acne, post-acne, scars, freckles, enlarged pores, redness, wrinkles. Alas, forget about the ashes. If your eyes, natural shade of hair closer to warm shades.
How to get ashy hair shade?
Let's try to figure it out.
Cold natural hair shades themselves are ashy. However, to get it through dyeing, unfortunately, you need to very well get rid of unwanted pigments in your hair. Our most resistant pigments are red. Until the end to get rid of red, none of us will not succeed. That is why, after a while, bleached hair turns yellow, red, and red. This is a normal process. Red pigment makes itself felt. And now we will analyze each situation.
Imagine that you have dark hair color, say 4-5 level. And you would like to become a little lighter, that is, 6-7 level and certainly with an ashy tint.
It seemed nothing complicated. Lighten up to 2 tone levels and paint over with dye with ashes. But if you understand in order, this is the case.
The darker the hair, the more red is the pigment in its structure. When lightening (even if your natural level is 4 or 5 ashen), your red pigment will make itself felt. That is, we will get 7.3 or 7.33 or 7.73 shades. That is, brown brown gold or brown brown red.
What happens next? To neutralize the red pigment, we will add green and blue pigment to the dye. Red, of course, we neutralize, but red + green + blue will give a darker tone. As a result, we will once again return to your ashen 5. So much manipulation, and returned to the beginning.
The correct option in this case is to clarify from your 5 or 4 tone level to 8 or 9, and only in this case, by a few more intermediate procedures, go down to 7 tone level. Such a capricious color.
Does it all have ashen color?
It should be noted that such a hair color can turn any, even the most modest, appearance into a chic one. But remember, not every girl can afford such a hair color. You need to be very neat girls with uneven skin color, small scars or acne.
Ash hair shades are perfect for owners of smooth white skin. But you need to take into account the fact that this shade makes its owner a few years older. So if you are over thirty-five, then you should think carefully before changing your appearance in such a drastic way.
In addition, the owners of red and golden hair need to know that even repeated staining will not be able to give them a beautiful ash color of their hair. Also note that with repeated attempts to achieve this shade, red-haired young women risk losing their curls of health and beauty. So do not try to achieve the impossible and love yourself as you are.
How to get ashy hair color
But if you still decide to dye curls, you should know that simply applying dye to the hair is not enough. Because if you do this, the hair, instead of being almost white, may turn yellowish or greenish. For this reason, there are many procedures that allow you to minimize the possibility of unsuccessful painting.
A prerequisite for successful hair coloring is the use of moisturizers and balms. It is also worth periodically nourishing the scalp with the help of various masks. You can use both store and home masks. But we'll talk about them a little later.
If such a nuisance as yellow or greenish hair color has already happened, then re-staining of the curls with a special balm of an ashy or violet hue can help in this case.
But such an ambulance will be effective only if the curl is not too yellow. Otherwise, the best solution would be to contact a beauty salon, where professionals can correct the situation without causing significant damage to your hair.
You also need to pay attention to the preparation for painting. The best option would be the lamination procedure. So, first of all, you can protect your curls from the negative effect of dye on the structure of each hair. And secondly, this procedure allows the paint on the hair to hold on much longer.
Experts say that having pre-lamination curls, you can extend the retention of color on your curls up to three months. And, of course, if you decide on such a coloring for the first time, then you may want to contact a professional who can choose the optimal hair color of ashy color and a mask for the care of curls.

Masks to restore curls after dyeing
Now that we have studied what colors can be with an ashy tint and how to choose the right color, let's talk about how to restore the health of the hair. After all, no matter how high-quality the dye is, it still does significant damage to each hair.
One of the best ways to save your curls is kefir mask. It does not need to cook for a long time and keep a few hours on your head. Just immediately after washing your hair, apply a little kefir on your hair along the entire length and leave for about fifteen minutes. After that, thoroughly rinse the detergent from the hair with warm water and dry your head as usual.
In order to give hair volume and shine curls, you can use a universal mask of eggs and beer. For its preparation, you need a chicken egg, 50 grams of cottage cheese and 100 milliliters of light beer.

Who should avoid
Silver curls will not look very attractive on girls with a warm skin tone. A strong contrast between the coldness of the shade of the hair and the warmth of the shade of the face will play a cruel joke with its owner, because it will be more like an awkward doll, but not like an icon of style.
Owners of chestnut hair or with a golden subtone will also have to look for a sub-shade close to the ashes. But the silver will have to be abandoned, because the golden undertone will always appear a little through the coldness of the ashes, and the end result will more resemble light brown hair, but not platinum.

Unlike light blond platinum, dark blond platinum tone is suitable for both very young ladies and women “after 30”, as it does not emphasize the first wrinkles. This is exactly the subtone that will refresh the boring image of a business woman, not adding to her frivolity, but emphasizing femininity. The ash tone on the dark blond strands is perfectly combined with almost any style of clothing, moreover, it is easier to achieve it on the dark curls, because you do not have to push the hair to a hard light.
Dark-skinned oriental beauties also should not be overlooked with such color. If you have almond-shaped eyes, thick black eyelashes, and clear cheekbones, choose it! Dark skin will shine health and freshness from the inside against the backdrop of new colors of your hair. Even beauties with African roots can dare to experiment and repaint it that way.
Ash Blonde - aristocratic chic
Ash blond, in fact, is a very small number of the fair sex. Only girls with perfect pearl-porcelain skin, bright eyes and thin outlines of the face should decide on such a cardinal change of image. That is, only on girls with doll appearance he will look really gorgeous.
Dark eyebrows, rosy from embarrassment of the cheeks, dark skin or transparent light eyes - these features of the exterior do not “make friends” with a silvery blond. The only way out is to dilute it with a golden hue, so even girls with freckles and warm skin can be so beautiful. Such a blond with a blue tint looks very unusual, but it will suit only a fair-skinned green-eyed beauty.

Ash brown hair color (photo) - gorgeous and "will not kill" your hair
Silver blond, as we have already found out, is far from being for everyone, but if you have always dreamed of such a mane, we recommend paying attention to the ash-brown coloring.
Strands of this color "make friends" with dark eyes and pronounced dark eyebrows, and even with the skin of a warm color type. The ash-brown ringlets will make the skin of the face visually fresher and younger, so that women in their thirties can also choose such a tone. Bright eye makeup, lips, underlined pastel lipstick - and you are the queen of the evening.
It is not necessary to “silver” spin along the entire length. Dyeing shatush or ombra with darker roots and brightened platinum brown tips is a great solution. Such coloring will look gorgeous and on long curls, and on strands of medium length.
Ash-pink curls - that choose modern pupae
Very young long-haired beauty stylists recommend to pay attention to the platinum-pink color. It looks very interesting, adds to your image of children's naivety, playfulness and reverie. What way of “transformation” will suit you - shatush, balayaz and the beloved ombra - is up to you. The result is sure to be uncommon. Just be prepared for a heightened level of attention from others, because you cannot remain unnoticed.
If we want to get ashy blond
When lightening hair goes through several stages. First, it becomes red, then red, then red and yellow, then yellow, and finally, very light yellow. To get us such a very light yellow, sometimes you need to lighten from 2 to 4 times, and sometimes how much do not brighten, such a tone we can not get.
Imagine that your hair is not dyed, not lightened, and you yourself are blond blonde. Then you have all the chances to wear ashy blond. To do this, we must lighten the hair to the very last row, that is, 10 tones. Make your natural red pigment dissolve (it’s still impossible to finish). And then get the same ashes.
Paint - that's what you need to arm!
Professional paint is the best solution. It is recommended to choose several tones, and, having created from them such a “cocktail”, to begin coloring. Only in this way is it really possible to create an ideal subtone for each client individually, that is, to find that subtone that will be “friendly” with the color type, and will emphasize the beauty of the eye, and will not “throw” a couple of years to its owner.
Palette ash colors ESTEL De Luxe
But if you can not buy a professional product - go to the store. Buy only quality products. It is best to study several sources on the Internet in advance and select the paint that has already managed to receive positive feedback and recommendations for use from professional stylists.
Often, each manufacturer of ash colors allocate a separate digit-number to make it easier to find the right tone. There is no generally accepted numbering, each brand is individual.
How to care for the ash shade of hair
And further more. The ash is washed off the hair faster than any other color. That is, after about a week you are no longer ashen. And a week later your red pigment will return. Even if you will use shampoo for blondes, masks that neutralize yellowness and special sprays for blondes - this is not enough for ashes. Put a record about going to the salon in your calendar every 2 weeks.
Ash hair color is a hair structure completely devoid of pigment. Hair is damaged, withered. And if in such a natural form you go outside, the effect will be the opposite. This is no longer a style, but an image of a pensioner with sticking tows. Unfortunately, in this case, the usual (and even unusual) masks can not do. Here we need high-quality salon care programs.
Plan a budget for hair restoration with the help of Botox, the popular “happiness for hair” and “absolute happiness” treatment, keratin restoration for blondes, hot haircut, finally. All this you have to use in turn. Therefore, the wallet should be plump 🙂
No wonder they say that blonde is long and expensive.
How to get platinum color?
For each client, stylists develop a unique staining algorithm that will achieve the desired color. Sometimes in order for the client to be completely satisfied with the result, you need to apply the paint several times on the hairs.
Remember! The specialist always recommends using only quality materials that will cause minimal damage to the hair.
The transformation of dark strands in silver requires pre-clarification. It is only on the straightened strands that the mikston is applied from the correct tones, so that the result does not give off yellowness, but has a noble pearl shimmer.
Palette ash colors Londa Color
If you are recommended after staining to make lamination strands - do not give up - this will allow you to fix the result as long as possible.
Lightening is best done in several stages, using a more gentle and oxide solution, discard a strong concentration, so as not to "burn" hairs. It is better to entrust lightening to a professional, because a friend or mother may simply not know how to work with this or that product, and a hairstyle with a yellowish or even greenish tint will not please you.
Exposure of the clarifiers on the curls depends on the base (source) color, but you should not overdo the clarifiers, they can turn the living hair into crumbling straw.
The dried mane dried by the hair dryer is painted with the chosen paint and is left to be fixed exactly for the time that the manufacturer recommends in the instructions.
