Do not comb the hair immediately after the staining procedure, since most of the dyes still continue to act until the hair is completely dry. Combing can adversely affect this process, resulting in uniform color may not work. After staining, treat the hair with a special remedy. It is necessary to purchase the paint, where there is an appropriate shampoo or balm rinse.

To ensure that your dyed hair retains its color for a long time and an attractive appearance, try to follow the requirements listed below.

If you have to wash your hair often, then try to use a gentle shampoo with gentle action, best of all having an acidic pH. It helps to achieve neutralization of alkali in the hair "bags", as well as inside the hair itself. Typically, these shampoos include protein compounds that promote the restoration of intercellular bonds in the hair (destroyed by exposure to paint). If you follow this recommendation clearly, you can count on a more persistent color and healthy hair. Do not use the conditioner every time, it can create a feeling of heaviness on your hair.

  2. Remember that after staining your usual shampoo, even if carefully chosen for your type is a poison for hair that has been exposed to chemical attack. He lifts the scales of the hair and flushes the pigment from under them. Therefore, the maximum that you can use, so this is a conventional conditioner, shampoo must be designed for colored hair. With an abundance of shampoos for colored hair, you can choose it even depending on the color of the paint. So, for example, you can choose a shampoo for blond, dark or red hair. Thanks to the shade components, which are part of such shampoos, your hair will have an additional gloss, and also the color chosen by you will be strengthened and preserved. When choosing cold light tones, you should use a toning caring balm that can support the color.

When washing off the foam, it is necessary to make sure that the water is warm, since the yolks can be brewed from the hot water. If your hair is greatly weakened by frequent staining, apply the yolk foam several times during one wash, massage with your fingers, and then rinse with warm water. In order for the effect of this procedure to be more noticeable, you can add to the yolks lemon juice, about 1 teaspoon.

They do not have a damaging effect on the structure of the hair, and also can slow the process of hair loss.
    7. Also, care for colored hair includes permanent circumcision of overgrown tips.

Try to protect your hair and do not stain it more than 3 times a month - it is fraught with a serious violation of the structure of the hair, which in the future will have to be treated. Currently, some manufacturers of hair dyes offer a technology of gentle staining, where ammonia is not used. However, this type of staining has two serious disadvantages. First, such methods are very expensive and not everyone can afford (ceramic dyeing, hair eluting). Secondly, the result of such staining is not persistent and may not coincide with your expectations, besmamiachnyh dyes often have difficulties with the coincidence of the claimed color and the result. But even hair dyed with a gentle method needs special care. To maintain the beauty of your hair, follow the same recommendations as when staining with persistent paints. Do not neglect to use a special "sour" shampoo, because sparing paints also form an alkali in the hair and scalp. All this will allow you to consolidate the result and save the health of hair and scalp for a long time.
