Ammoniac and professional paints do not suit me because of aggressive structure too. Cause the naggers and provoke a hair loss.
So I addressed pharmaceutical brands.
Korres honestly says that he does not use in the paints ammonia, silicones, mineral oil, parabens and also resorcinol and PPD (paraphenylenediamine) allergens.
First I painted all cloth of hair because the previous paints were washed away or went to reddishness over time. Now I paint only roots because color remains and there is no need to update it on all length of hair. And hair at me below shoulders.
To my fine hair 1/2 tubes of paint are enough to paint roots. More dense and thick hair requires the whole tube.
Personally for me the inconvenience caused discrepancy of volumes of the paint and the activator. The activator - oksigent is on sale separately and it is possible to choose from three: 20%, 30%, 40%.
Naturally, for the fine hair with small % of a gray hair I chose 20% the activator. And it was ideal for me.
But its volume of 150 ml also should be divided into 4 parts to make the necessary dosage. It is so inconvenient!!! You sit and you measure from a bottle, and liquid dense. Besides it is easy to be mistaken and to incorrectly calculate proportions.
I would prefer packing of activator already in finished form---opened, mixed and applied on hair.
I mix paint with the activator in a ceramic pan, and I put with a plastic brush.
Paint is oxidized and it is necessary to work very quickly to put qualitatively and evenly. I already got skilled at to do it and even the help is from outside not necessary.
Paint from hair does not flow, on head skin and persons does not leave marks. But I use gloves, and I close clothes an old unnecessary towel.
I maintain necessary time for coloring (about 35 minutes) and I wash away paint warm water. Then, according to the instruction, I wash with colored hair shampoo and I put the mask going complete with paint.
The mask is specially developed for a dyed hair - softens, untangles, feeds, humidifies and at the same time does not wash away paint from hair. But I all the same do not apply it on roots.
At a mask wonderful structure! Pleasant aroma, modern harmless antistatic. The mask economically is spent. After drying hair look live, friable, easily comb hair.
Paint from Korres became my rescue after long search and experiments: I had to try on the hair paints of a massmarket and pharmaceutical. To list names there is no sense, there is a lot of them, they qualitative, have the buyers... I was not suited.
Hair I thin, direct, head skin sensitive, have some percent of a gray hair.
Paint from Korres well paints over a gray hair, gives a natural shade and the one who does not know, thinks that it is my natural color that I do not dye hair in general.
As for firmness of color, here everything depends on the shampoo choice. It is the best of all to wash the head with special colored hair shampoos.
What else noticed - hair after coloring not rigid, not dry. Nevertheless, always I use the conditioner, and once a week and a mask for hair.
