Hair dye to cover gray hair reviews

Today in the women's club "Those Over 30" a current topic is being discussed - gray hair dye. For centuries, gray hair was perceived primarily as a sign of old age, so even in ancient times, women fought against it with the help of henna and herbal infusions. Our contemporaries have a more radical and effective remedy - hair dye.

How to cover gray hair? How to choose the right dye for gray hair and should you trust advertising? What procedures allow you to achieve a more lasting result when coloring gray hair? What hair dye brands have proven themselves to be successful according to reviews? You will find answers to these questions in this article.

Natural hair coloring products: pros and cons

Fans of natural products who oppose the use of hair dye give strong arguments in defense of henna and basma - they carefully color the hair without destroying its structure and maintain the health of the scalp.

However, these truly wonderful cosmetics also have significant “disadvantages”: all owners of gray hair know that neither henna nor basma covers gray hair 100%, besides, they are quickly washed out of the hair. Therefore, hair dye is often the only way to combat gray hair.

How to choose a dye for gray hair?

To choose the right dye for gray hair, you need to understand what gray hair is. Gray hair is hair that has no natural pigment. The hardest gray hair to dye is vitreous gray hair, in which the hair scales fit tightly to each other.

To effectively cover hard gray hair, you need to “loose” the top layer of the hair cuticle. Only paints can do this, containing ammonia and a high percentage of oxidizing agent - 6% or 9%, but their use does not always guarantee the achievement of the maximum effect.

That's why professionals use additional procedures that allow you to completely cover gray hair and achieve a more lasting result: the hair is pre-treated with oxide, then dye is applied with water, and only after that it is dyed with dye with enhanced pigment. Before dyeing glassy gray hair blonde, the hair is first lightened with a special powder using a 3-6% oxidizing agent.

Recommendation from the site komy-za30.ru: all these procedures cannot be performed at home, so if you cannot cope with gray hair on your own, it's better to contact a professional. This is much safer for health - many ladies spend a long time experimenting with hair color on their own and go to the salon when they already have a whole bunch of problems - brittle, burnt hair and damaged scalp. Moreover, in the salon you can choose organic dye that is gentle on your hair.

So, when choosing a dye for gray hair, you need to remember:

1. In order for the paint to cope 100% with gray hair, it must contain ammonia (or its substitute) and high % oxide – 6-9%.
2. Gentle (without ammonia) and tinting paints do not allow dense coverage of gray hair, since the former do not contain ammonia, and the latter contain it in small quantities. In addition, tinting paints use weak oxidizing agents. These paints wash off faster than ammonia paints.
3. The choice of dye for gray hair and oxidizer depends on the structure of gray hair - the thicker it is, the more concentrated the dye should be and the higher the percentage of oxide.
4. If your paint covers gray hair, it definitely contains ammonia or its substitute, despite the fact that advertising may claim the opposite.

Dyes for gray hair: our review

The main criterion that guided the author of the article in this review was personal experience and the experience of loved ones. The selection of dye for gray hair is always very individual, although it is other people’s reviews that often allow you to avoid mistakes in this difficult matter.

Acme color "Rowan"

Despite the low price (40 rubles), the paint completely covers even the most “resistant” gray hair. It does not cause a burning sensation, the hair is shiny after dyeing, the color is long-lasting, very rich, although brighter than stated on the packaging.

The main drawback is the very strong smell when painting, which will only scare away optimists.

I have half a head of gray hair. I'm originally a brunette. Well, not exactly hot. For the last 5 years I have been dyeing my hair chestnut, and everything seems to be relatively normal, but there is one “but”.

I am leaving this topic, which, unfortunately, was not possible to discuss.
Finally, please read this wise parable.

TAKE YOURS

One day Buddha and his disciples passed by a village in which opponents of Buddhists lived. The villagers rushed out of their houses, surrounded the Buddha and the disciples, and began to insult them. The disciples also began to get excited and were ready to fight back, but the presence of the Buddha had a calming effect. But the Buddha's words confused both the villagers and the disciples. He turned to the disciples and said:

- You disappointed me. These people are doing their job. They are angry. It seems to them that I am an enemy of their religion, their moral values. These people insult me, and that's natural. But why are you angry? Why did you allow these people to manipulate you? You are now dependent on them. Aren't you free?

The villagers did not expect such a reaction. They were puzzled and quiet. In the silence that followed, Buddha turned to them:

- Have you said everything? If you haven’t said everything, you will still have the opportunity to tell me everything you think when we return.

The people from the village were completely perplexed, they asked:
“But we insulted you, why aren’t you angry with us?”
“You are free people, and what you did is your right.” I don't react to this.

I am also a free person. Nothing can make me react and no one can influence or manipulate me. I am the master of my manifestations. My actions flow from my inner state. Now I would like to ask you a question that concerns you. The villagers next to yours greeted me, they brought flowers, fruits and sweets with them. I told them: “Thank you, but we already had breakfast. Take these fruits with my blessing for yourself. We can’t carry them with us, we don’t carry food with us.” Now I ask you: “What should they do with what I did not accept and gave back to them?”

One person from the crowd said:

“They probably took it home, and at home they distributed fruits and sweets to their children, their families.”

- What will you do with your insults and curses? I don't accept them. If I refuse those fruits and sweets, they have to take them back. What can you do? I reject your insults, so you too take your load home and do with it whatever you want.

Virgos, does anyone know where you can buy keune paint? Or maybe someone collects from us? I would be glad to receive advice from experienced people. In general, does anyone have any experience with professional paints? Which is better or worse based on experience? I’ve been growing out my color for several years after unsuccessful highlighting, now I’m deciding to dye it again, but I want it without making fatal mistakes. Well, and save money, of course, where would we be without it? There is no money for a professional salon, unfortunately. I don’t have any independent coloring experience either, but I know that the paints seem to be professional.

Yesterday I finally went to get my hair cut and dyed, I haven’t dyed my hair the whole pregnancy + another 9 months. It’s spring outside and I no longer have the strength to look at my gray hair.

We painted it with regular paint and it turned out well. But now I’m tormented by what.

Hair dyeing with henna. Hair care

. When applying henna to permed hair, the hair can acquire absolutely any color other than the intended one. Henna is contraindicated for naturally blond hair, except in cases where the desire to have a bright red head of hair is conscious. It will not be possible to paint over gray hair if it constitutes more than 40% of the total hair mass. This is explained by the fact that gray hair lacks natural pigment and, as a result, henna dyeing can result in an unpleasant carrot-colored tint. Those who want to experiment a little with their own hair and try henna dyeing should remember that henna is considered a permanent dye, it penetrates into the deep layers of the hair, just wash it off.

We dye our hair. Hair care | Washing off the dye

. Rule 5. The hair is divided into four zones by two perpendicular partings passing through the crown. First, the dye is applied along the partings, and then to the occipital area, since it is colder and the coloring process occurs less intensely there. It is better to apply the dye last to the temple and forehead hair, since that is where the hair is the thinnest and absorbs the dye very quickly. If you want to make some part of your hair lighter than the rest, then you need to start applying dye from this side. Rule 6. When coloring your hair with very intense red tones, the dye should be applied only to the lengths and ends of the hair, 2-3 cm away from the roots. And only after the hair has been washed.

Advice! If you have any doubts about the quality of the paint or the success of the entire procedure, consult with a specialist. This also applies to those with damaged hair.

Review of popular brands

What is the best hair dye? To answer this question, we decided to create a rating of the most effective means. It covers a fairly large number of dyes - from household and cheap to expensive and professional.

Persistent professional dye from a Russian manufacturer with a low amount of ammonia. It contains natural substances, including cocoa butter, which nourishes the hair from the inside and makes the strands shiny and soft. It features a varied palette - 100 beautiful shades + 6 color enhancers. Gives hair an even and rich shade. Among the disadvantages is the rapid loss of shine.

"Loreal Professionnel Color Supreme"

This product will cost a very serious amount, but believe me, the purchase is completely justified. The effectiveness of this paint is at a very high level - it works even in cases where gray hair has affected more than 80% of the hair. "Loreal Professionnel Color Supreme" contains Densilium-R, a special substance that strengthens the roots, thickens the strands and restores their structure.

Professional dye for gray hair, developed in Holland, is divided into 3 subtypes - permanent, gentle and for SPA dyeing. The Keune palette is very large - 107 different tones (80 main and 5 mixtones). What is important is that the end result always corresponds to what is stated on the packaging. The dye has an unobtrusive odor, does not irritate the epidermis and contains silk proteins, which make the strands softer.

Permanent cream paint “Palet” is another popular and budget option. It covers gray hair well, has a unique “color protection” complex, and provides lasting results for 2 months. Includes 32 different tones, from which you can easily choose what you need. “Palette” contains three types of dyes - for light, semi-permanent and permanent coloring.

As for the disadvantages, these include the lack of balm, a strong smell and the negative effect of the composition on the hair - it becomes brittle and over-dried. To avoid these moments, take care of your hair using special cosmetics - masks, balms, serums. They also note the fact that one tube is often not enough to color the entire length.

"Preference Recital L'Oreal"

Very high quality paint, the price of which is about 250 rubles. For this money you get not only uniform coloring, but also comprehensive care during the entire procedure. After dyeing, the hair becomes vibrant and shiny.

"Estel De Luxe" from Unicosmetics

This is a professional Russian brand that has managed to win millions of fans over the short period of its existence. It masks gray hair well, is gentle on hair and offers a very large palette to choose from. Gives colored hair shine, brightness and silkiness. "Estelle" has a creamy texture - it does not spread and spreads evenly over the entire length. The unique composition is also pleasing - the dye contains a shimmering pigment and a nutritional emulsion based on chitosan, vitamins and chestnut extract. The disadvantages include an unpleasant ammonia smell and the ability to dry out hair.

Good paint made in France, belonging to the gentle line. It has a unique formula - a minimum of chemicals + natural ingredients that create an invisible protective shell on the strands. The color range includes 66 fashionable colors - from natural to exclusive.

A professional dye produced in Germany, designed for permanent coloring of graying hair. Thanks to the special formula, it does not spread at all and evenly saturates the entire length, so it is ideal for painting the house. In terms of the number of tones, “Igora Royal” takes first place. The presence of mixtons is also pleasing, allowing you to create unique combinations. The paint has a pleasant fruity aroma - there is absolutely no pungent odor. It contains useful vitamins and other caring substances.

"Wella Koleston Perfect"

Without exaggeration, this durable dye can be called the embodiment of impeccable German quality. A special line for gray hair is preferred by both professional stylists and ordinary women. In the palette you will find natural and unusual shades. Wella Koleston Perfect ammonia-free hair dye does not dry out your hair and gives it a rich shine. Unfortunately, some tones fade slightly over time.

Rowan by Acme Color

Permanent paint with rowan extract can easily be called the most affordable. Its average price is 100 rubles, but the result will be rich, bright and incredibly durable. The palette includes 30 different tones. The only drawback of "Rowan" is the strong ammonia smell, which does not dissipate throughout the entire staining procedure.

"Matrix SoColor" is an American-made permanent dye for gray hair, the main advantage of which is the patented "ColorGrip" technology. It is very popular and gives the hair a bright and intense shade. It applies very easily, evenly saturates the entire length, retains color for a long time, adapts to the pigment of the strands, which ensures an excellent result. The paint formula contains nourishing ingredients that restore damaged structure. Cons – slightly dries out ends, contains ammonia.

Professional ammonia paint from a famous Italian brand guarantees full coloring in 100 beautiful tones. Its undoubted advantage is its high durability. In the composition you will find nourishing ingredients that even out the structure of porous hair. Unfortunately, the consistency of this product is not thick.

"Londa Color Permanent"

Don't know which hair dye is best for gray hair? Pay attention to the salon creamy product from “Londa Color” (Germany). The color does not wash off for about 8 weeks, and the oxidizing emulsion has a positive effect on the uniformity of the composition and provides excellent results. The dye tints gray hair and revitalizes hair. It contains lipids and natural waxes that provide high-quality care and neutralize the effects of chemicals. An important advantage of London Color is its affordable price. The downside is that there is a small selection of shades.

A popular dye with a rich palette (35 stylish shades), developed in the best traditions of nano-molecular technologies. It contains vitamins H, E, A and B3, which provide powerful protection against negative influences. It colors very softly, which will certainly appeal to those with sensitive epidermis.

Rules for coloring gray hair

To use dye without harming your hair, remember these few rules:

1. Determine the number of gray strands. If there are more than 50%, you need to select the proportions in the ratio 1:1.5 (oxygen/paint). At 70% gray hair, the proportions are distributed in a 1:1 ratio;

1. Analyze their distribution. If the gray hair comes through evenly and does not exceed 50%, feel free to use paints marked “for covering up to 50%.” If it appears in islands, use products without ammonia;
2. Set the character of the gray hair and the stiffness of the strands. For coloring glassy hair, the proportions are 2:1. Women with soft hair can choose a 1:1 ratio. They need to take a dye one tone lighter than desired;
3. The dyeing procedure should begin from the back of the head - this area has the lowest temperature;
4. For several days before the procedure, do not use shampoo and conditioner;
5. Decide on a color. It is most difficult to cover gray hair on dark hair, because it has a denser structure. That is why brown-haired women and brunettes should choose shades from the natural range (close to their native color). In almost all paints they are designated by a number - 0, 4.0, 5.0, etc. Those who want to change the color need to choose tones located clockwise. In this case, you will protect yourself from unpredictable results.

By following these recommendations, you will never be faced with the question: “Why doesn’t the dye stick to gray hair?”
