Highlights are a way to highlight the beauty of your hair and add sophistication to your look. They draw attention to your hairstyle, giving it depth and charm due to the play of color. However, achieving the desired result and making highlights successful is a task that requires attention to detail. If you are planning to change your style with highlights, it is important to prepare and take into account several nuances.

Before visiting the salon, it is advisable to choose makeup and clothes in your usual colors. This will help the hairdresser to select shades more accurately. It is especially important to warn the hairdresser if your hair is already dyed, indicating the dye used to avoid unwanted color mixing.

There are many highlighting techniques, each of which has its own characteristics. For example, “American” highlighting involves applying a lightening agent to clean hair with a brush or even with your hands to achieve a natural color transition. Glazing is an interesting method for short haircuts, in which the ends of the hair are dyed to create volume and texture.

Another popular technique is “American coloring”, where each strand is dyed in different shades and wrapped in foil to create bright contrasts. For dark hair, the “jungle fire” technique is suitable, where several shades of red are applied to the hair, creating a flame effect. This technique looks especially impressive on brown-haired and brunette women.

The “majimesh” technique looks great on light hair, where strands are lightened using a creamy dye with the addition of wax. It gives a soft golden hue, and also adds volume and bright highlights. Also popular is dyeing only the ends of the hair - “balayage”, which gives the hairstyle a stylish look, especially on short and graduated haircuts.

For those who prefer bolder looks, the Crazy Colors technique is suitable - bright blue, green or other saturated colors. However, it is important not to overdo it, so that the hairstyle looks stylish and not overloaded.

Self-highlighting is also possible, for example, using a rubber cap. You can thread the strands through the holes and carefully apply the bleach. This method requires patience and certain skills, but can save time and money.

To maintain the beauty of highlighted hair, you need to use special shampoos that add shine and lightness. Care gels-fluids smooth the strands, emphasizing the contrast and depth of color. Professional masks for highlighted hair will help maintain the structure and softness, restoring the hair after coloring.

Additionally, you can use fruit masks, for example, from kiwi or tangerine, which strengthen and nourish the hair. And to stimulate hair growth, a herbal infusion with the addition of honey and vitamins is suitable. Using this composition, you can improve the condition of the scalp and strengthen the roots.

Highlighting is not just coloring, but the creation of a unique image that requires a special approach and care.
