According to experts, about 70 percent of women in Europe prefer not to dye their hair, but to tint it using a special coloring agent - a hair tonic. Why did he so deserve their love? The advantage of tinting over conventional dyeing is as follows - it has a fairly light and gentle effect, does not penetrate deep into the hair structure and, accordingly, does not destroy it. After the tinting procedure, the hair acquires a healthy shine and does not require special care, as after applying regular paint.
Tinting hair dyes are a great choice for girls with long luxurious hair. When choosing this tool, it is worth considering that the hair tonic is a tool that does not differ in durability. On the one hand, it’s not very convenient, on the other hand, you can change hair color at least every two weeks! In this case, you can not be afraid that the hair will become dry, brittle and lifeless. Lovers of traditional dyeing agents very often encounter the latter - after several procedures, one has to stock up all kinds of jars with restoring balms and masks, regularly trim the ends of the hair.
Hue hair products can be divided into two types: gentle, light exposure and deep. The first type includes light foams and shampoos that are washed off after 2 weeks. Deep impact paints do not contain ammonia and last up to 2 months.
