Often women experiment with hair color on their own, without resorting to beauty salons. Therefore, to predict what the shade will turn out is sometimes simply impossible. It is good if the color that you received after painting matches what you expected. Or differs, but not much, from the plan. And what if the new shade of hair does not suit you at all? In such a situation, a
hair wash will help
. At home, this procedure can be performed with the same success as in a hairdressing salon - you just don’t have to pay for services ... However, you should not hope that it completely removes the color you hate. Rinse helps
lighten hair by a maximum of 6 tones. It may be necessary to carry out several procedures to achieve the desired result.
What is a hair wash
At home, you can neutralize the consequences of an unsuccessful experiment with professional hair cosmetics. There is a wide selection of washes on the market: the products of Paul Mitchell, the well-known Loreal, Estelle and others. Such products are quite easy to use. In the package you will find oxide powder and reagent in liquid form. These components must be mixed together and added to the shampoo. Next, apply the mixture to the hair and rub it for several minutes. Then carefully wash the hair. If necessary, the procedure can be repeated. There is also a tool for
washing hair, which acts on the principle of a mask: it must be applied to
dry hair and go to bed. And in order not to stain the pillow and keep the composition, it is recommended to use a special hat. In the morning, wash your hair with low pH shampoo.
What you need to pay special attention to:
- a hair wash at home is allowed for use strictly after 2 weeks after unsuccessful staining, otherwise you risk damaging your already damaged hair dye;
- immediately before the procedure, a high pH mousse must be applied to the hair. It will help strengthen the structure of the hair and thus protect them from the effects of chemistry;
- you need to wash your hair with hot water (as much as possible), after which you can find out if the paint has completely washed off. To do this, apply a drop of liquid developer to a small strand. Then we try to touch the hair with our fingers: if the paint remains on them, then the procedure must be repeated;
- repeated washing can be carried out no earlier than in a day.
Natural hair wash at home
If, due to certain circumstances, it is not possible to purchase special products, you can prepare the wash yourself. It should be understood that this method is less effective compared to the use of professional cosmetics. He will be able to lighten his hair by a maximum of 1-2 tones. We bring to your attention a couple of recipes.
- Chamomile broth: 100 g of dry raw materials, pour 300 ml of boiling water and insist
for 60 minutes. Then we add 30% hydrogen peroxide (about 50 ml) to the broth, mix and apply to moistened hair for 40 minutes. Next, wash off the composition using shampoo. - Kefir mask: apply ordinary kefir to the hair and leave it for 2 hours. Then wash my head with warm water. To enhance the effect, you can use yogurt or add a teaspoon of soda and vodka to yogurt.
Finally, I want to note: the best hair wash is the tool that is right for your hair. And what to choose - cosmetics from professionals or a natural product - is up to you.
