28 Do I need to wash my hair before coloring? Know how to apply the product correctly on the wires
The tonalizer enhances the natural nuance or darkens the locks, giving shine and softness. But do you need to wash your locks before toning?
Unlike paint, which penetrates the hair fiber, it has a more superficial action, forming a layer around the hair.
Therefore, you need to wash the locks before toning them, to ensure a longer-lasting hold.
Wash only with shampoo to clean the remnants of combing cream, leave-in, repairing ends or any other type of finisher, untangle the locks and you can start applying
But before the application, do not forget the touch test. This process is very important to know if you will not have any type of allergy or irritation with the product.
Also, you need to test the product on a small section before coloring your entire hair.
Many people want to color their hair, but are discouraged by knowing that permanent coloring can dry out the hair a lot. A good alternative, in this case, is to use a tonalizer, which enhances the natural nuance or darkens the locks, giving shine and softness. As the perm is not applied to clean hair, people do the same when toning. Is this right? Find out here at Stay Diva!
Wash your hair only with shampoo for better absorption
The application of the toner is different from the coloring. Unlike the permanent, which penetrates the hair fiber, it has a more superficial action, forming a cover around the hair. Therefore, you need to wash the highlights before toning them, to ensure a longer lasting hold.
But you don't need conditioner. Wash only with shampoo to clean the remnants of combing cream, leave-in, repairing ends or any other type of finisher, untangle the locks and you can start applying. Do not use anti-residue shampoo, as this product leaves the scalp more unprotected.
Remember to do a touch test and strand test before application.
Women who do everything at home usually skip these steps when coloring their hair. Can not! Touch proof is very important to know if you won't have any type of allergy or any irritation with the product. It's very simple: apply some of the dye behind the ear and wait for it to dry. If after 48 hours, your skin has no reaction, go for it! Otherwise, it's better to avoid.
Also, you need to test the product on a small section before coloring your entire hair. This goes for both the toner and the permanent color. Thus, you find out if your threads are resistant to the product and how the final result will look.
