BLONDE LOOKS YELLOW
You regularly update your hair color, but it turns yellow over time - is this a familiar situation? It's all about improper hair care.
What to do?
On the color wheel, purple sits directly opposite yellow. Therefore, you must choose this one if you want to neutralize yellowness in your hair as soon as possible. Experts suggest using a toning shampoo with a purple tint.
Long term
Next time you visit the salon, be sure to ask the stylist for your hair in a cool white shade. Be specific but persistent - no yellows or warm colors! Also, once a week, use a mask designed specifically for the cool blonde shade. Used regularly, it will prevent yellowing in your hair.
BLOND TOO ASH
You wanted to become an ash blonde, but the master went too far and now your hair has a gray-green tint? Unpleasant, but fixable!
What to do?
When a toner (rather than a permanent paint) has produced this result, use a cleansing shampoo, which after a few uses will help neutralize the color faster. With persistent paint, things are much more complicated, and you cannot do without the help of a hair master.
Long term
Before dyeing your hair ashen, ask the master what the result might be in your case. He must take into account all the initial data, for example, whether you have a natural hair color or have you dyed with henna before, and according to the results of the survey, tell you which color will suit you and how it will behave on your hair.

HAIR ROOTS AND ENDS HAVE DIFFERENT COLORS
Hair dye does not "take" roots, so after its application the hair has a different shade: on the roots - one, at the ends - another.
What to do?
If you are not a top-class colorist, it is better not to experiment with colors on your own, but to surrender to the hands of a professional. At the same time, until you reach it, use a toning dry shampoo. You just need to spray it on the hair roots. The result lasts until the first shampooing.
Long term
A good colorist should be able to match your roots with the rest of your hair. He should take the time to section the hair and apply the dye to the roots and then blend with the rest of the length.
UNIFORM HAIR COLOR
It would seem, what's the big deal? However, a uniform hair color after dyeing (usually after home dyeing or the work of an economy class master) looks flat and very cheap.
What to do?
Tinting agents come to the rescue again! It can be mousses, tonics or gels - the main thing is that it is convenient for you to use it. Separate a few strands from your hair, including your face, and apply a toner to them. Ideally, it should be the same color as your hair, but a couple of shades lighter or darker.
Long term
The next time you go to dye your hair, ask them to apply a sophisticated dyeing technique so that the hair will end up looking as if it has burnt out. Let him make not an even color along the entire length, but such as if the sun or the sea "played" with some of your strands. Usually such a technique as balayazh copes with this.
