Who at least once in life lightened the hair, knows the pain that follows this solution. The discolored ends constantly break, hair becomes tougher, and the color constantly has to be updated so as not to become like a sponge bob. It is good that the beauty industry is not standing on the spot: Colorists come up with new ways to update the blond with a minimum loss for hair quality, and the technologists are developing "smart" means to maintain tone. All this is in Womanhit material.
Why do hair yellow?
The first problem of all blondes is not a rustling of the roots, but the change in the length of the hair. Colorists explain that the causes of the yellowness of the hair are several:
one) Genetics. The dark color of the hair acquires thanks to Eumelianin - one of the two types of melanin, painting the rod. When the hair is exposed to an oxidizing agent, of three eumelinine molecules - blue, red and yellow - only yellow remains. The darker hair, the more bright this color will be. Many red pigments are also poorly washed away, so the hair becomes rust when lightening. The master can only toned hair with a strong blue or purple pigment to temporarily give them white color.

2) Environment. Hair is also yellow in the sun - ultraviolet destroys part of the pigment of the hair, changing his color. At the same time, the Sun influences the evaporation of moisture: the hair becomes dry, which can also change its shade. You can notice this effect by comparing wet and dry hair - in the wet condition of the hair is always darker and brighter.
3) Water. The chemical composition of the water you wash your head can also change the shade. Most often, tap water slightly outweighs the alkali. Therefore, colorists advise to wash their head with neutral shampoo, and then rinse with a weak solution of vinegar or choose special care products, which will be acids.
How to get rid of yellowness?
Fashion two - regular tinting and home care. You need to use both if you want to get not only white hair, but also take care of the health of the chapels. Start with regular peeling of the scalp - so you will stimulate hair growth, and you will spend less shampoo on flushing length. Then choose the right tool by type of hair - a tight straight hair is enough balm, while for porous curly, the mask is better suited. After washing, wrap the hair into the cotton sheet, which faster absorbs moisture than a towel. Dry hair at low or medium temperature mode, and after laying, lubricate the length of silicone serum - it will protect the cuticle from damage.

Every 1-1.5 months, Colorists advise to tint hair paint with a weak percentage of oxidizing agent. You need to learn from the master tone of the paint, buy it and apply for the entire length of the hair - with a weak percentage of the oxidizer paint only tinting hair, temporarily filling out the emptiness with artificial pigment, but does not destroy the natural pigment of the hair. Usually toning takes 20-30 minutes, but you have time to be different - check this by the master.
For additional toning, buy a purple shampoo and a mask from a professional line. They need to alternate with your usual means, so as not to cut the hair. Use the cosmetics strictly according to the instructions and track whether the tone changes - after drying it should temporarily become colder. As an additional care, you can find sprays for blondes - there are small silver particles in their composition, which, due to the reflection of light from the hair surface, visually change its shade.
