This does not mean that the coloring process must be tedious and complicated or damaging to your hair. Tip 5: If you suffer from skin blemishes, erythrosis or similar skin conditions, you will probably fare better with blonde intensive tinting or permanent color applications. Tip 4: Do you have light hair and want to change the color to brown but don’t like visible roots? Dark streaks (lowlights) could be your solution. Bleaching alters the hair structure and as a result, and the applied hair color may not turn out as advertised! Red hues may be a lot more intense than intended or too many absorbed color pigments may darken the hair considerably. Tip 3: Be especially cautious when coloring already bleached hair. We recommend to only go a single shade darker at first. More pigments in a tinting application may attach easier to your hair if it is stressed or broken.
Tip 2: The more damaged your hair is, the more careful you should be with the choice of test colors when dyeing hair brown.
It is best to approach the darker hair color in measured steps when learning how to color hair brown. Tip 1: Rinseable tinting solutions are ideal for trying out the perfect brown hair color, provided your hair is neither color-treated nor bleached. You will have more fun with your new color and retain the color pigments in your hair for a longer time if you turn to special hair care for color-treated hair, such as Gliss ® Color Guard ® shampoo and aftercare options like Gliss ® Color Guard ® Express Repair ® conditioner.For a more intense color, you may decide to leave the color in your hair for a few more minutes or even as long as half an hour. Tinting yields a more intense color effect the longer you expose your hair to the coloring lotion.The result after dyeing your hair will be more dazzling and longer-lasting if you start out with healthy locks. Consistent and proper care for your hair is the best foundation for coloring hair brown.
In case your complexion is cool with a hint of blue or pink, then you should select dark brown hair colors without red or gold hues. Such color hues are caramel, bronze, chestnut brown, and light brown. Warm color shades suit your hair particularly well if you have an olive or dark complexion with a hint of yellow or gold.
