Dark-haired beauties who want to get an ash-blond color will have to dye in 2 stages. First, a clarifier of 9–12% is purchased, depending on the thickness and saturation of the natural color. Lightening of curls is carried out. Painting directly with the dye is carried out on the 2-3rd day after bleaching, so that the curls can rest.

Tinted balms and shampoos

To maintain the ashen color and even the reincarnation of natural light blond beauties, they use such tint options:

shampoos and balms;
mousses;
tonics;
varnishes with silver-gray particles.

The declared cosmetics ensures the retention of artificial pigment for a short period of time, since after 3–4 washes, complete depigmentation occurs. It is forbidden to use tinting agents often, especially for weakened hair. Judge for yourself why you need an interesting color if you can ruin the curls.

Tonics, shampoos and balms are applied very simply. One cap of the product is distributed on the hair, foamed and left for 20-30 minutes to activate the pigment. After that, the soft dye is washed off with plenty of water (make sure that the water becomes clear!).

For example, quite inexpensive, but effective tonic from Rocolor "Tonic" will give your curls a luxurious pearl-ash color. And for light brown hair, you can use the tint balm 7.1 "Graphite". Do you want light curls to shine? Get tone 9.21 "Ash Blond" with a lamination effect.

Mousses and foams are generally easy to apply and wash off well. Mousse Igora Expert from Schwarzkopf shade 9.5-12 "Moonstone" provides curls with an unsurpassed mysterious gray color. Unfortunately, it does not stay on the hair for long (3-4 washes), but it really tints beautifully.

For girls who want to create an original image for just one day, we recommend using colored varnish "Metallic". He will color the curls in ashy color, creating the image of a real Snow Queen. The most popular brands are Jofrika, Lee Stafford and Kryolan.

Ammonia-free dyes

There are many ammonia-free dyes on the market today. They have both their pros and cons. The advantage is the minimal impact on the curls, after which in most cases it is not even necessary to carry out restoration. Among the minuses, one can single out the high cost and the minimum delay on curls - no more than 1 month.

Interesting moment: In the world of salon hairstyles, highlighting with ammonia-free paint began to be called majimesh. It will suit light blond and blond girls. Lightening is carried out by only 2 tones. At the exit, a noble brown-haired with ashy notes will be waiting for you.

Red and yellow hair colors when using ashy dye give a green color. This is due to the fact that when mixing blue and yellow molecules, a green tint is obtained, which must be subsequently removed or neutralized.
