Imam da vam priznam nešto. Umem da budem prilično aljkava što se tiče održavanja boje i redovnog farbanja. Dešava se da sačekam da prođe po 2-3 meseca i da mi izrastak postane već kritično velik da bih odlučila da je vreme da navučem frizerske rukavice i pobrinem se za to.
I have to confess something to you guys. I tend to get pretty sloppy when it comes to dying my hair regularly. Sometimes 2 or 3 months pass, and my hair grows out quite a bit until I decide it’s time to put on my gloves and deal with it.
Ovaj put je prošlo oko 2 i po meseca od poslednjeg farbanja i kao što se vidi na slici, kosa mi je u prilično očajnom stanju. Imam svaku moguću boju trenutno na glavi, od kojih mi je ova žućkasta prelazna boja verovatno najgroznija. Prirodna boja kose mi je srednje smeđa sa crvenkastim odsjajem, te mi je izuzetno teško da dobijem željenu boju bez prethodnog blajhanja. Većina ljudi sa Balkana ima isti problem sa crvenim pigmentom i farbanjem u platinaste i srebrne nijanse, pa se tešim da nisam jedina koja prolazi kroz iste muke.
This time it’s been about 2.5 month and as you can see it looks really, really bad. It seems that I have pretty much every color on my head at this point, which isn’t very flattering. My natural hair color is medium brown with a very warm undertone. Most people from Balkans have the same problem with neutralizing reddish pigment in their hair and trying to dye their hair lighter shades. With that said, it’s absolute pain in the ass to achieve a silver blonde hair color when you aren’t blessed with being naturally ash blonde or light brown.
Farba koju ovaj put koristim je Stilova Pop Art farba specijalno prilagođena kosama našeg podneblja. Za razliku od prethodnih farbanja kada sam koristila samo C09 Silver Blonde, odlučila sam da ovaj put pomešam nju sa C19 Super Ash Blonde nijansom da bih testirala da li izvlači bolje žutilo iz moje prirodne boje. Sa Stilom sam uvek bila zadovoljna iako njihove farbe važe za agresivnije i sa njima sam postizala odlične rezultate, tako da verujem da će to biti slučaj i ovaj put.
Hair dye that I used this time is the one from a local company called Still which is specially created to neutralize red hair pigment that people from this part of Europe usually have. I’ve decided to switch it up a little bit and this time bought two different hair dyes: C09 Silver Blonde and C19 Super Ash Blonde which I’ll be mixing. Last couple of times I’ve used shade Silver Blonde which did a great job, but then I got curious whether mixing an ashy color would neutralize the yellow in my hair better. I guess I’ll have to try it out and see for myself.
Posle nanošenja farbe, sačekala sam oko 40 minuta da ona potpuno deluje (koliko i piše na kutiji), isprala je toplom vodom i šamponirala kosu i nanela masku kao i svaki put kad perem kosu.
After applying the hair dye, I let it develop for about 40 minutes and then rinsed it out with warm water and shampooed and conditioned my hair the way I always do.
I dalje koristim isti šampon i masku za kosu koju sam spomenula u NEW IN postu i moje mišljenje o ovim proizvodima se nije promenilo. Odlični su u kombinaciji za suvu i farbanu kosu. Šampon je blag i lepo neguje kosu, a maska joj pruža odličnu hidrataciju i sprečava mršenje kose.
I am still using the shampoo and hair mask I showed you in my NEW IN post a while back and opinion on these products hasn’t changed. They are great for dry and colored hair. Shampoo is mild and nurturing and the hair mask gives your hair necessary moisture and helps you get rid of tangles.
Krajnji rezultat posle farbanja i toniranja.
And this is the end result.
Kao što se da primetiti, koren kose je odlično pokriven i farba je izvukla svetlo pepeljastu boju koju je i obećala da izvlači. Kosa mi više nije toliko žućkasta kao prošli put i boja koju sam dobila je mnogo hladnija i ujednačenija. Nemojte paničiti ako vam kosa posle farbanja sivom ili pepeljastom farbom poprimi zelenkast odsjaj pošto je to skroz normalno. Posle jednog do dva pranja boja će se isprati i dobićete željenu nijansu. Pošto se i meni to desilo posle farbanja, tonirala sam celu kosu Gencijanom i dobila ovu ljubičastu boju koja je rešila problem.
As you can see, my roots are pretty light and ashy, and my hair is overally a lot cooler in tone than before. Keep in mind that your hair might turn out a little green at first (as did mine), but that is common with grey hair dyes and it is nothing to be concerned about since it will wash out over time. After rinsing out shampoo and hair mask I toned my hair with Gentian Violet which gave it the lavender and purple color.
Da li biste se odvažile na farbanje u srebrno ili ljubičasto?
Would you rock silver or violet hair?
