The fashion for hair dyeing makes girls think about changing the style by dyeing hair, but what to do if after this procedure the hair has become less healthy and you want to return to its natural color? With the situation unsuccessful staining faced every girl. Reviews on the forums about the failed staining make you seriously think about how to do it correctly. Girls transfer the color they like on a friend's hair to their own, but the result is unpredictable. Few of this number of girls take into account the color of the skin, eyes, and uneven skin before painting.

Or another situation: dyed hair becomes pockmarked after applying the dye. The overgrown roots are of one color, the average length of another, and the dried ends of the third, and if there was also highlighting on the hair, then the four-color hair will not please the owner. Fortunately, we have long gone through a period when we dyed our hair with henna or basma, with which it was difficult to do something. It is possible to correct the situation at home using a special powder or contact a professional. The price for such procedures is acceptable and affordable for a woman.

Effect before and after hair decapitation

A procedure called "hair decapitation" has recently appeared in the list of services of salon procedures that can help to return to natural color and do it without harming the curls. Reviews of women who have undergone this procedure are only positive. So, let's figure out what it is.

What is pickling

Hair decapitation - newfangled salon procedure, which consists in removing unnecessary shade, stains and changing the tone of the hair. It is used in cases where color removal cannot be cleaned with the usual clarifiers. It should be noted that it is better to carry out this procedure in the salon with a professional, since pickling is chemical procedure and if not correct application at home, you can burn your hair, harming it.

Types of pickling

In different situations, different types of pickling are used. Their differences are in intensity and composition. This procedure must be treated individually, considering in detail each specific case.

Superficial

This method is used in cases where hair coloring did not bring the desired result. It is used within the first two days after staining and has a gentle effect on curls. In this case, you can achieve a shade of at most two tones, different from the resulting one.

To receive desired effect in this case, a wash containing oxidizing agents is used, and such a product is based on fruit acids that can easily and gently remove unnecessary pigment, while maintaining the health of the hair. If this wash is applied later than two days later, then its effect is practically reduced to zero. The price fluctuates depending on the cost of materials, but the reviews of the girls are very set up for the best.

Deep

When stained in dark color, black or "bitter chocolate" a woman realizes that she was mistaken. Few people ponder the fact that such a rich dark color goes not everyone and, as a rule, ages. In addition, it is impossible to get rid of black shades on your own.

In this case, deep pickling is used. The chemical component of the product is able to open the scales of each hair and draw out the dark pigment to the surface. Using a special powder, masters warn that the effect will not be immediate. V individual cases this method is used if the surface pickling did not lead to the desired result, and it also happens that you have to carry out several procedures to get the desired result. In this case, it is imperative to wait a period of two weeks, otherwise you can cause irreparable harm to the curls. The result of one procedure is lightening up to four tones.

For lightening to blonde, masters use a special blonde powder.

How is pickling in the salon

If a woman decides to trust a professional and do the pickling at a professional in the salon, then this is the right decision. After all, only a competent master is able to provide the conditions for this procedure and will resort to it only if other methods do not help. Before the procedure, the master suggests first applying another method - bleaching powder.

So, the pickling technology is as follows:

  • First, the master dilutes the water with a special powder, adding other components there in the following proportion: 60 milliliters of water, 30 grams of powder and oxidizer and 15-20 grams of shampoo or 20 milliliters of water, and 20 grams of powder, oxidizer and shampoo. The percentage of the oxidizer is chosen by the master independently, depending on the original tone of the hair. The master chooses the proportions himself, based on his knowledge and experience.
  • Then a wash is applied, while the hairdresser uses the products by applying them to the dry ends of the hair.
  • The next step is to distribute the product from the roots along the entire length using a comb. At this stage, the wash has a special effect on the hair structure, while removing unwanted pigment. chemical attack then it is imperative to protect the hair and nourish. The wash is removed special shampoo and then a nourishing balm is applied.
  • The whole technology is completed by coloring the hair with a protective paint. Is not simple paint, but a tool that gives not only color, but also envelops the scales. It also protects against further negative impact on the structure. Reviews on the use of protective paint allow us to conclude that it has a very beneficial effect on the hair.

The price of this procedure depends not only on the level and type of exposure, but also on the length of the hair.







Washing off color at home

The wash is sold in many stores and the price for it is quite acceptable, but do not forget that it quite strongly affects the hair and if you use it at home, you can spoil its structure. If the decision is made and it remains only to choose, then at home it is better to use natural remedies rather than funds with chemical composition... Description possible procedures carried out at home are given below.

You will have to repeat this procedure at home all the time and this is not a guarantee of the result, especially when it comes to dark curls... Let's take a closer look at some of the recipes for using improvised means for.

  • burdock;
  • olive.

Hair coloring with permanent dyes is the most effective method become brighter and more effective. Experiments with color often end in failure. To remedy the situation, you need to remove the dye from the hair structure, but permanent dyes cannot be washed off with ordinary shampoo. In this case, proven means (washes) are used, and the procedure itself in professional language is called "pickling". There are several procedures for the procedure, they do an excellent job with the task and are widely used in beauty salons, at home.

What is pickling

Washing, decapitation, decapage of hair - what this is known to almost every courageous fashionista who constantly experiments with the color of her hair. The task of the procedure is to destroy the bonds between the particles of the cosmetic pigment (dye) and accelerate its removal from the hair.

In the process of dyeing with persistent permanent dyes, the cosmetic pigment penetrates the hair cortex and is firmly fixed inside the hair shaft. Respectively, simple shampoo and the balm cannot be removed.

Today there are several proven, effective options removing persistent dye from hair. Hair picking is carried out in a beauty salon under the guidance of a professional or independently at home.

Removal of persistent pigment is performed in several cases:

  • staining did not give the desired result, the color looks inharmonious;
  • the client decided to return to the natural shade;
  • to avoid the appearance of extraneous shades after painting previously painted curls;
  • as a result of repeated staining, the color at the roots and at the ends differs significantly (by 1–2 tones). Hair decapitation - great way correct color congestion, align it along its entire length;
  • for the purpose of lightening previously dyed dark hair.

Important! Methods of pickling hair dyed with permanent permanent dyes are not suitable for removing natural dyes (henna, basma). You can read how to wash henna from hair on our website.

Advantages and disadvantages

The undoubted advantage of the procedure is the ability to quickly get rid of the acquired, persistent pigment. Especially when the new color was chosen incorrectly or the staining was done with errors, and it was not possible to achieve a uniform tone along the entire length of the curls.

Decapitation is performed on any hair, regardless of the color, structure and age of the client. Using the procedure, you can get rid of light and dark dyes, the sequence of actions does not change.

The effectiveness of the remover depends on the method of pickling, the chosen product, the condition of the hair, the quality of the paint and a number of other factors. But keep in mind that the deeper the pickling is carried out, the more strength you will need to restore the curls in the future. The procedure is harmful to a greater or lesser extent, after which high-quality hair care will be required.

Another disadvantage of the procedure is that after washing, the hair is necessarily tinted or colored. When the cosmetic pigment is destroyed and removed, there are molecules of destroyed melanin (natural pigment) and voids in the hair shaft that need to be filled. After pickling, the hair acquires a color from light yellow to red, depending on the natural tone of the hair. It looks unaesthetic. Plus, for the hair itself, this condition is unacceptable, it is easily susceptible to external factors, weak and brittle.

Price

Let's figure out how much hair picking costs at home and in the salon.

On average, you will have to pay 1,500 rubles to remove the paint from the master. The run-up in prices is huge, from 650 to 5000 rubles. The cost is influenced by the prestige of the salon and the level of the performer, the length, condition of the curls and the method of pickling, as well as the location of the salon (Moscow, Moscow region or other regions).

If, however, you dare to perform the procedure without the help of professionals, at home, then its cost will be limited to waste on pickling agents and improvised materials.

For example, packaging for acid wash Kapus, Estelle and others famous brands costs in the range of 400-550 rubles. Typically, one package is sufficient for several applications.

An important point! To get rid of artificial dye, one procedure is often not enough. This fact will also affect the cost of the procedure.

Hair picking technique at home

Making an acid wash

The principle and technique of washing with acid compositions is the same, but some of the nuances may still differ. Therefore, carefully read the instructions and manufacturer's requirements before pickling.

The washing process assumes the following sequence of actions:

  1. Mix the reducing agent and catalyst in equal parts. Do this in a non-metallic container so that the components of the product do not react with metal particles.
  2. Treat the curls with the prepared mixture. Leave the root area (1 cm from the scalp) unused. Apply the composition quickly and evenly along the entire length.
  3. Put on a shower cap or plastic bag, wrap your hair in a warm towel. The created thermal effect will enhance the action of the product.
  4. After the time recommended by the manufacturer, rinse the mixture from the curls, first with warm water, then with shampoo deep cleaning. The product is washed off 4-5 times in a row.
  5. Blot the hair with a towel and dry it with a hairdryer.
  6. Visually assess the cleaning result: uneven tone, zero external effect indicate the need for pickling again.

Another way to check if the cosmetic pigment is completely removed is to use an oxidizing agent. Take a few strands in the temporal, parietal, occipital zones. Treat them with a mild oxidizing solution. After a few minutes, proceed to the examination: a uniform color along the entire length of the strand indicates the success of the procedure. If you see dark areas, this is a sign that some of the dye is still present, you need to continue washing.

Attention! Some manufacturers require a break of 20 minutes between washes, while others, on the contrary, advise performing the procedure one after the other. Clarify such subtleties in the instructions.

We do a deep rinse with powder

For more strong impact on the molecules of artificial pigment, hairdressers use a lightening (bleaching) powder or paste. In this case, it does not matter how much time has passed after staining and the number of dye layers applied.

In addition to powder (paste) for clarification, the composition of the decanter contains hot water, shampoo and oxide 3-9% depending on the formulation and hair structure. There are several proportions of mixing these components to prepare a strong composition, we suggest one of them.

You will need:

  • 30 g bleaching powder;
  • 20 ml shampoo;
  • 120 ml of oxidizer 3 or 6, depending on the original color of the hair.

Procedure:

  1. Put on gloves and put an old towel over the client's shoulders to avoid staining the clothes.
  2. The decanter is prepared only before applying to the hair, because its activity decreases rapidly.
  3. Strand by strand, apply the prepared mixture to the hair, start from the ends, because it is in them that accumulates a large number of cosmetic pigment. Perform the actions as quickly as possible, the result and the final state of the curls depend on it.
  4. The curls are combed, ensuring an even distribution of the prepared mixture along the entire length.
  5. After some time (the master visually determines when the process is completed, but not more than 50 minutes), the pickling composition is washed off first with warm water, then with shampoo several times.

Important! Powder decapitation is a complex and responsible process, the slightest mistake is unacceptable. For example, you cannot use a brush, only a foam sponge or hands. Do not rush to carry out such washes at home, trust the professionals.

We wash off the paint with folk remedies

Usage special masks from natural ingredients- another option for washing. It is used at home, does not harm the curls, but, on the contrary, helps to strengthen them. The only drawback of the procedure is that a course of masks will be required, it will take a long time. The final result will delight you.

Here are some effective and popular natural cleaners:

  • Spread warm kefir on your hair, wrap it in cellophane and a warm towel. After 1.5 hours, rinse the mixture with water and shampoo, apply balm or conditioner. We recommend that you familiarize yourself with the kefir remover on our website.

Blond wash and acid wash can not remove vegetable dyes from hair !!!
After dyeing, the dye can be washed off from the outer layer of the hair, but it always remains inside the cortex of the hair. Therefore, when staining, even constantly in one color along the entire length, you can notice a darkening of 2-3 tones along the length (cosmetic pigment accumulates there during staining) than at the roots.
Decapitation is carried out: to remove the dye from the hair, to eliminate the unwanted shade after dyeing, the congestion of the hair color after dyeing, to change the color to a lighter one. It is made with acidic (special means) and with the help of dyes of the 1st group (powders, pastes - blond wash). Acidic washes wash away only cosmetic color from hair without affecting natural. They do not work with henna and other tint products, but only with permanent paint. A blond wash affects the entire hair. Permanent paints cannot be washed off simply with shampoo. They are found inside the hair. And when pickling, the quality and time of removal of the cosmetic pigment depends on the amount of staining and layers of paint. There will be as many shades as the hair was dyed dark.




Porous hair absorbs more dyes than is necessary
Acidic washes. A cosmetic pigment is a large macro-molecule made up of small micro-molecules, monomers. When dyeing, the monomer entering the hair cortex combines with each other filling the voids - it polymerizes to form a polymer. The polymer clings to the macro and micro fibrils of the hair, which is reliably anchored inside the hair cortex.


The acidic remover breaks the cosmetic pigment back into micro-molecules, making it easier to wash it out of the hair. After washing, we see the melanin pigment destroyed by stains (the so-called background clarification). These washes can be done not on the wound, than after 1 month from the last staining, so that the roots have time to grow. Because it is performed without getting on the scalp, stepping back 1 cm from the roots. The number of washes depends on the number of layers of dye on the hair and on the density and concentration of the dye. Therefore, it is difficult to remove household dyes, it is better not to use them, after them it is more difficult to get the desired color. The number of washes is different for each manufacturer. Be sure to see the instructions !!!

After washing off, we see the background of the lightening of the previously colored hair. Destroyed (clarified) melanin. Where red and yellow pigments often remain.

After dyeing, we see the background of the lightening of the previously dyed hair. Destroyed (clarified) melanin. Where red and yellow pigments often remain. The result is a lightening background from red to yellow. The darker the hair was before dyeing, the redder we will see the lightening background.


How to have a decent color between washes: tint dark shampoo or a tinting mask (usually dark, eg brown). Apply 10 minutes after the last wash on the day it was done. And wash off with water. They are at next wash wash off hot water, frequent washing and deep cleaning shampoo.
Why does my hair darken after an acid wash? On the first night after washing, oxidized by oxygen from the air, the molecules are pulled back together. Or, when painting, it is oxidized by oxygen from an oxidizing agent, if the rinsing process has not been completed. We are not afraid. In any case, when washing off, there was less pigment.

How do you know how well the wash is done? Hair color should be uniform without dark spots... We cannot see what is not visible, because most monomers are colorless until they oxidize. If the entire mass of hair is uniform, then all monomers of the cosmetic color are stopped. To check, we take a developer or oxidizer up to 3% (in washes it is he), apply to the hair (at the forehead, on the tops, temples, back of the head),

during oxidation, the color will appear (because during oxidation, the molecules bind and appear). We keep it for 15 minutes and wash it off with shampoo Gl.Och .. If it gets dark, then the wash needs to be continued. If they darken slightly, then the washing process is over. For removing bad smell apply fragrant mask or vinegar or 1 spoon per 1 liter. water, or citric acid... Then we can paint, tint, according to your choice, taking into account the FD. The acidic remover preserves the properties of the hair. leaving FO.


Acidic washes remove cosmetic pigment without affecting the natural one. They do not work with henna and other tint products. Only with PERMANENT PAINT !!! In case of allergies, we either paint the same dark back, or already dlond wash.



Acid wash process. After them, the hair becomes dry, we are not afraid, the masks will restore them. The number of washes depends on the amount of staining and the concentration of the dye in the hair. As the cosmetic pigment is removed, the hair color will always be in one direction. Lighter at the roots, darker towards the ends. Stretching from light to dark (as dyed). The more the pigment is washed off, the lighter the hair. Accordingly, the hair will acquire a red-yellow color depending on the UGT. The ends are the most difficult to remove, because they have the most accumulation of colored pigment. Even if there is a lot of pigment visually, we continue to wash.


a Blond wash removes all pigments. Allergies are less pronounced. But it has a stronger effect on the hair. Well, it removes pigments cleaner. When applying the composition, the hair, first after 3-5 minutes, often darkens, then begins to lighten. If they do not brighten, then there is a lot of cosmetic pigment in the hair. Then the suction is pulled together with a dry disposable towel and reapplied with a higher% oxidizer. We can then tint or paint by choosing the color that is possible in this case.


In case of undesirable shade within 24 hours after staining or color overload = light pickling.

4 options. No. 1). 100 g water + 30 gr. powder + 20ml. shaipunya, no. 2) . 100 g hot water + 30 g powder, no. 3) ... 30 gr. powder + 120 ml. activator, No. 4) .3 parts of powder + 3 parts of 6% oxidizer + 1 part of shampoo + 4.5 parts of warm water. The mixture for light pickling is applied very quickly to damp hair. To remove the dye evenly. Emulsify for 2-3 minutes, paying special attention to the ends. Then we wash off, look at the result, repeat if necessary several times to achieve the desired result.


The strong composition does not depend on the time from the moment of staining.

№1). 30gr. powder + 120g. 6% or 9% + 60g. hot water + 15g. shampoo; №2). 30gr. powder + 120ml. 3% or 6% + 20 ml. shampoo ; №3). 20gr. powder + 20 g hot water + 20 g. shampoo + 20gr. 3-6 or 9% oxidizing agent. The oxide depends on the original hair color. The darker it is, the higher the%. №4). 30gr. powder + 60ml. hot water + 30ml. 6 or 9% oxidizing agent

Each removal of cosmetic pigment is traumatic for the hair and scalp. Therefore, we adhere to the rules


Powder + 1.5% 1: 5, if desired, paint the tone to match, but in a different color nuance. (For example, the cosmetic color is 7/5, but we need 7/7. With this composition we will wash off the 5-ku and paint further by 3% by loading the 7-ku) Also 1: 7 and you can add shampoo.
Professional dye is better washed off than home (household), subject to technology. Therefore, when dyeing hair in lighter shades, pickling is performed. Checking on the strands occipital zone with what dye was stained earlier. Acidic or alkaline. To know which wash to make, acidic or alkaline.
Color off (estel) acidic remover. Consists of 3 bottles. 1st and 2nd are mixed with each other 1: 1. Hold for 20 minutes, then stretch paper towel and apply the composition for another 20 minutes. So you can apply up to 5-7 times at a time. This is the norm. Then wash off with a deep cleansing shampoo with hot water. Then we apply composition number 3 (this is 1.5%) to the test strand for 3 minutes. If the hair has gone into darkening, then we repeat the washing procedure from the very beginning, i.e. we do the wash again in the same way. If the hair goes to lightening, then the washed off color will not return back and you can apply the composition to all hair. Also, then ALWAYS apply number 3 for 3 minutes to complete the acid wash procedure. After that you can paint or discolor not earlier than after 40 minutes !!! If after, we want the desired color a couple of tones lighter, for example, after washing it turned out 4УГТ (tone depth level), this means there is pigment 5 (red), and you want 7УГТ. Then you need to pre-clarify by 9%. Only then paint. If we want to go up 1 UGT (for example: our 4UGT, we want 5UGT), then the roots are colored not by 3%, but by 6% and the length is not 6%, but 9%. Or we take the dye 1 UGT higher (our 4 UGT, we take 6 UGT) and work the roots 3%, length 6%.


Tone level = FF Background Brightening (created by interaction with oxygen after partial destruction of the pigment. After pickling, it is lighter at the roots, darker towards the ends. The less cosmetic pigment, the more FO is visible)
10. very, very light blond = very light = yellow (70% yellow)
9.very light blond = light = yellow (100% yellow)
8 light blonde = yellow (70% yellow and a little orange)
7.blonde = yellow-orange (100% orange)
6.Dark Blonde = Orange Red (70% Orange and 30% Red)
5.light brown hair = red-orange (100% red)
4.brown = red
3.dark brown = dark red
2.brunet (lots of blue and red) = very dark red
1.black (many blue pigments) = very very dark red

How to remove KhNU or BASMA

Blond wash and acid wash cannot remove vegetable dyes from hair !!!

When using this type of pickling, the procedure takes place without the use of substances that destroy the hair structure and harm them, namely, without an oxidizing agent and oxidant. With superficial cleansing, the dye from the hair is not completely removed. Simply put, a light wash results in color or tint adjustments.
  • Deep decapitation of hair is a difficult and unsafe procedure for curls. This type of hair cleansing helps to get rid of unwanted, usually dark colors curls. Chemical substances, which are part of the washes for deep pickling, wash out the coloring pigments. You need to understand that such pickling spoils the hair very much, after such a procedure, the curls need special care and treatment.
