What is hidden hair coloring?

With the help of this modeling and painting technique, you can "refresh" the image and add spice to it. Covert staining usually takes place in several stages. After a series of preparatory measures, the master gradually paints the strands in the shade chosen by the client.

Latent coloring vaguely resembles block painting. In the process, the master captures individual strands (in a row or through one), applies a dye to them in an even layer and leaves them for several minutes. Usually the bottom layer of the hair is dyed. If the client wishes, the master focuses only on the tips.

The colored strands will be "hidden" under the bulk of the hair. They are usually located in the area of ​​the temples or the back of the head. Hidden coloring is suitable for absolutely everyone, regardless of age and gender. Most often, people who, for whatever reason, are afraid of a radical change in appearance, resort to the services of a hairdresser. Multi-colored strands look quite harmonious on hair of different lengths.

Pros and cons

Latent dyeing for light brown hair has several advantages and disadvantages. The main advantage of single or multi-color coloring is the result. According to reviews, most of the customers are satisfied with them. Multi-colored strands go well with daytime, evening makeup and any style of clothing.

Also, the advantages of technology include the ability to quickly "hide" bright blocks of hair, especially if their owner is forced to comply with the dress code and other rules of work ethic. Coloring agents can be applied to any type of hair - curly, straight, slightly wavy.

Professional products are completely hypoallergenic - they do not contain parabens, preservatives and other components that can destroy the hair structure:

Paraphenylenediamine

ABP

The component can be considered a by-product. Unscrupulous manufacturers of dyes rarely indicate the substance in the annotation. The by-product is a strong allergen. 4-ABP is present in paints that give a red or black tint.

Lead

The component (in the form of acetate) has a negative effect on the hematopoietic system. The chemical compound is considered toxic. It is usually added to coloring agents to enhance pigmentation.

Ammonia
