Hair Colouring Can Improve Your Confidence.(hair color)

Hair color

Our hair can have an impact on our personalities and of course the overall look of a man or a woman. By dying our colouring your hair, it changes the way you look and demands people's attention. This is why more and more people are doing it and not just the youth. This leaning towards hair colouring has come about through the fashion industry where colour enhances the appearance of clothes that are being modeled and these trends have been passed down to the every day individual.

The best colours to go for are the ones that complement our natural colour so, a blond would go for light colours, like beech and light browns. Colour should also be picked that complements the colour of the individuals eyes.

There are many hair colour products out there and the one you select depends on your preferences and things such as your style of hair cut, shape of your face, and other factors. There are temporary colours that are short term and last until the first wash. There are permanent colours that last for a long time, around 5 months and the colour goes deep into the roots to help the colour last for that period of time. Then there are semi permanent colours that contain some ammonia and peroxide and this lasts for around 2 months.

Most women, are trying to improve their physical appearance, from their clothing and their makeup to their hair and shoes! Nowadays people are judged on their outer beauty rather than their inner beauty than ever before and so hair colours can help with this and they are relatively easy to do and demand the attention of people!

Four Tips For Color Treated Hair.(hair color)

Hair color

Most woman today color their hair; it's an easy way to keep the gray away and experiment with new looks. Coloring our hair is a great ego boost, but long term dyeing can cause damage, and dying or hair can leave our walls, clothes, and even faces colored too! Here are four tips for colored hair; whether you've already dyed it, or are preparing for a DIY bathroom beauty session...

Before dying your hair, make a "beauty salon" in your bathroom, or kitchen. Lay towels on the floor to prevent dye from falling and staining rugs and hardwood floors, and repeat with your counters [hair dye is impossible to remove!]

To prevent dye from appearing on your cheeks, ears, and scalp, put a fine layer of Vaseline on these areas; Vaseline is the ultimate dye stopper!

If you're coloring gray, get your hair cut every six to eight weeks - if you do this more often your hair will become dry, brittle, and eventually break off which is much worse than going all natural! If you feel your hair is damaged, purchase a deep conditioning balm to replenish it, or ask your salon about an oil treatment that can restore hair. Avoid coloring all together if you have scrapes, sores, or cuts on your scalp, or face.

Hair coloring during the first trimester of pregnancy is never a good idea - if you are in the second or third trimester and your doctor gives you the go, consider using all natural shampoos, conditioners, and dyes that are non abrasive, and non toxic. If you find that dye has gotten on your other places besides your hair, you can use baby wipes to remove the stains. Lastly, think about purchasing shampoos and conditioners formulated for color treated hair, they work wonders and will keep your hair in decent shape post color.

Colouring and Styling Your Hair Using Hair Extensions.(hair color)

Hair color

Are you one of those people who gets bored with a hairstyle or hair colour really quickly? If you are then hair extensions may be your option.

There are always new hairstyles coming into fashion and if your one of them who likes to follow fashion your more than likely to have the Pob haircut first shown by Victoria Beckham in August. From then on Victoria has been constantly altering her Pob from having it cut shorter to changing the colour to blonde. If you had long locks and decided to have the Pob you may now want long hair again but you know its going to take a very long time for your hair to grow that long. So why not think of hair extensions as an option.

Hair extensions aren't just used by celebrities they are very popular with young adults as some fun as well as adults who want longer and thicker hair. These days hair extensions come in a variety of types, lengths, textures and colours. If you're worried about getting extensions to match your hair colour there's no need to worry, there are thousands of colours to choice from. Hair extensions give you that option of having long hair on a night out and then you are able to take them out when you just want your short or mid length hair as it is.

Changing the colour of your hair, having highlights and lowlights to adding colourful tips or strips to your hair are all options with the use of hair extensions. If you're like me I always like to do something different when I have a night out and I usually end up curling, straightening and even adding some pink to my hair. This all takes time especially the adding pink. The idea of just having to clip a pink hair extension in sounds like less hassle and stress and proberly better for my hair, so I know I will be giving it a go next time I go out.

We all like a change of style whether you just straighten your hair if it's normally curly or curling it when it's usually straight. I prefer not to keep changing my hair length as I always remember having lots of layers cut into my hair. That was a good 4 years ago and I'm still growing the layers out. I have no decided to keep the length and just change the colour of my hair adding different colours or changing the tone of the hair colour. With the help of hair extensions I can also add pinks, blues and darker tones to my hair without using colouring kits.

So why not try out new styles out, if you do want to go short remember you can always use hair extensions to add the length you want when you want so why not try out new hair cuts and colours with the help of hair extensions you can go for that dramatic cut and still enjoy the pleasures of long hair.

What Is Hot For Hair Color? .(hair color)

Hair color

Good girl gone bad blonde, suggestive caramel, and provoking coppers, yes we love getting our color done it makes use feel sexy, renewed and able to take on the world! However are you doing your color justice, or just having it for the sake of having it? Make an impact! This does not necessarily mean that you have to do purple or bright red, I am talking about the mix of colors and the technique,

What I love for brunettes right now

Yes brunettes, some of my clients walk in and get an all over color to cover their “natural Nordic blonde highlights” that come with their wisdom and maybe add a bit of a golden hue or a reddish hue to their medium brown, it can be nice but I am sure is it easy to get bored just changing a hue here or a tinge there. Suggestion: A medium natural brown base with darker warm low lights and lighter caramel highlights. Natural hair is not one solid color is has an array of highs and lows mixed with warmer and cooler tones through out, taking a medium brown and adding espresso and caramel highs and lows gets you a little Suggestive Caramel

What Blonds should ache for? When bad things happen to good blonds: Going too solid and too light, this look can be aging and tends to wash out the color in your face. It happens with highlights sometimes when we get them done over and over again or with an all over blonde color, eventually it goes to blond and to solid, Suggestion: Keep some of the light pieces mostly around your face, do a blonde low light, depending on how dark you are naturally (what your roots are) do one shade lighter than your natural color, and in between all the foils do a toner for the rest of the hair, a light butter cream toner works beautifully. Again when you mix some warmth with your cool tones, is gives you more contrast, depth and amazing shades flashing themselves in the wind, give your hair a little good-girl-gone-bad- blonde!

Red, red does it really grow out of your head?

I love seeing naturally red hair. The mix of reds, gold, and coppers can be stunning, and the red heads themselves can be very stubborn about color, I am a natural carrot top my self and for some reason it is special to say “yes this is my natural color” so copper girls tend to miss out on the fun of coloring just so that we can be truthful when we say "yes it is natural".The reality is as we age, have babies, (this goes for all hair colors) the color darkens, and we lose the vibrancy that we once had. Suggestion: I have had great success with rinses, yes a conditioning color glaze that gives the redheads back the vibrancy they had as a child, without looking fake, or like a light bulb, they fade out in 6-8 weeks since there is different tones in the hair and if the read head does not want to go lighter this is just what they need to get back the richness of their natural color. If lighter is what you want you might want to try some light golden highlights woven in to your copper mane, make it look like the sun did it! When people ask you say "yes I am a natural red head". Nobody needs to know what shade exactly. Give the world a glance at provoking copper!
