Hair with a yellow tinge: the causes and ways of fighting
Many will agree that yellowness on blond hair looks ugly. It spoils the purity of color, gives a dingy shade and makes the hair untidy. A yellow tint may appear as a result of:
- improper selection and use of chemical dyes
- discoloration of black hair (the natural pigment breaks through)
- previous stain of henna
- use for washing light hair of poor quality water containing rust
- lack of proper care for discolored curls
To neutralize yellowness, different methods are used. For example, the hair can once again become discolored, which, of course, re-traumatizes them. A more gentle method is the use of toning means (tonics) with pearl, blue, purple and silver hues. But very often the effect of their use is temporary - 1-2 weeks. Therefore, the safest and longest-term option is to neutralize the yellow tone on the hair with a special shampoo from yellowness. And along with expensive cosmetics, home shampoos, for example, cooked according to our recipes, can also get rid of the unsightly shade.
