Consider step by step how to dye your hair with pastels and how to choose this product.

Is staining safe?

Many fashionistas who like to create vivid images, ask themselves: is it possible to dye hair with pastels? The answer is simple: yes, you can. This product is an unmatched partner for experimentation. But the process of applying itself must be approached with caution, because the product has its own contraindications, despite the effectiveness and beauty of staining.

• It is imperative to test for allergic reactions and individual tolerance of the components of the chalk;
• The product has the ability to absorb moisture. Because of this, the hairs split and break. Therefore, after rinsing it is necessary to put a wet mask on the hair, and allow it to dry naturally without using a hair dryer;
• And the very method of application is very damaging the strands, because you need to hard rub the chalk on curls.

But if you use pastels infrequently and properly care for your hair, then you will be able to safely and easily change your image.

Types of products

Pastel colors come in two forms:

• Oily;
• Dry

It is best to choose the second option. Although it is shallow and harder to apply to the hair than the oil one, it still wins. Because the first option is hard to wash off and very fat strands. When buying a dry variety, pay attention to the packaging. It should have the word soft. These crayons give a rich color and are much better applied.

Try not to purchase products in Chinese online stores, because it represents the usual artistic pastels for drawing at an inflated price. You might as well buy it at a regular art store for a lower price. These original products can be found in cosmetic brands:

• Nocibe;
• Sephora;
• L Oreal;
• The body shop.

It can be sold individually and have a small color gamut, but it is precisely designed for hair.

Instructions for use

How to dye your hair with pastel to get a stable and bright shade:

1. Before you open the box with crayons, be sure to put on home clothes, cover your shoulders with a cape, and cover the floor and sofa with newspapers. Crayons tend to break and crumble, so the paint can be anywhere but the head;
2. Collect the hair on the flagella - this will provide a deep and high-quality pigment coating. If the strands are colored in harnesses, they look very natural;
3. Then it all depends on the color of the hair: brunettes and blondes need completely different ways of coloring. After all, on light curls, no effort is needed for the manifestation of color, and for dark strands a special application technology is required (the scheme for its implementation is described in stages below).
4. It is enough to hold small pieces along light dry strands, and the shade on them will fall like a bright, dense coating.

Brunettes will have a harder time to achieve a rich color:

1. It is necessary to wet the hair, combed slightly damp comb, or sprinkle with a spray;
2. Next, you need to gently massage the paint into each curl. Such a wet method of application gives the pigment to penetrate into each hair. But at the same time a lot of product is spent and the surrounding space is heavily polluted. Therefore, this method is used if the shade is imperceptible on dry hair.

To fix the result, the hair should be dry. You can just shake her to get rid of excess chalky crumbs. Your new home-made look is ready.

And the disadvantage and advantage of the tool - low resistance. On the hair it keeps only until the first wash. The saturation and brightness of the coloring during sleep decreases, because at night the pillowcase absorbs color. To please you a little longer, sleep on a satin or silk pillowcase.

Bad weather also plays a role: the pigment is washed off by rain, and the wind blows paint particles out of the strands.

To make the hair dye with pastel longer, you can thermally influence the strands and solder them with a special iron or curl yourself with the help of a curling iron. But the iron and forceps can harm the capne, so there is a more gentle method: twirl curls on the curlers and then spray with varnish. But with this method, there is no such fixation as during thermal styling, so the coloring from the hair will disappear more quickly.

How to wash off hair

To effectively clean the strands, take a brush from natural bristles and a mild shampoo. Further instruction is as follows:

1. We wash our hair with shampoo, and then very carefully and carefully comb through each strand;
2. Water rinse hair for at least 10 minutes;
3. Then you need to use a balm or a mask with a regenerating effect.

Chalk should be used no more than once a week or even less. Be sure between applications you can make several wrappings with oils. It is also necessary to monitor the state of the tips.

Where and for how much to buy

You can find pastels in the ordinary art store. Its price will be approximately 200 rubles per box. But if you want better products from the brands that were mentioned above, you will have to pay up to 700 rubles for just one piece of chalk plus shipping for orders when ordering from the online store.
