Dark hair is undoubtedly the most beautiful element of the image. But for some girls, alas, he gets bored, and the soul begins to demand change. The easiest option to satisfy your beauty impulses is to repaint in a different color. But, as you know, it is not so easy to get out of the dark, so most often women decide to lighten up. This can be done using various means, and one of them is the Garnier E0 product. What is it and how to use it? We'll figure it out.
Paint or brightener?
In the modern beauty industry, it is commonly believed that with the help of ordinary light hair dye it is unrealistic to lighten dark strands. Some say that there will be no reaction at all (which is an error), others believe that the result will be insignificant and at the same time not very aesthetic (which is true). But at the same time, most women are afraid of the words "brightening powder","supra" and their other synonyms and for good reason.
These drugs greatly damage the hair, of course, lightening it. Moreover, the whitening result is uneven, you have to tint very painstakingly, even out the color, then lighten again …
Therefore, the Garnier brand, which has already won the trust of the fair sex, decided to create something between paint and supra. In one package was placed bleaching powder and tinting cream paint. Today we are all familiar with this product under its name "Garnier E0" - a dye that allows you to simultaneously lighten your hair and give it a natural shade.
What's inside?
To begin with, it is worth noting that the decolorant "Garnier E0" is on sale in the form of one of the shades of the line called Color Naturals. Its packaging is standard, it shows a girl with the hair color that you should get as a result of dyeing, and the basic characteristics of this product are written.
Both outside and inside, the paint is practically no different from all other representatives of this cosmetic line. There is the pigment itself in the form of a cream in a dense tube, a milk developer in a standard bottle and a balm for further care.
But what else is worth noting is the presence of two sachets with brightening powder, which, in fact, play a key role in the nature of this beauty product. In fact, this is a standard supra powder that simply whitens hair. But in combination with cream-paint its functionality is slightly transformed, and changes its properties.
Why do I need shade E0?
As noted above, for some girls, such a moment as dark hair color for various reasons becomes unbearable. In such cases, they begin to look for the most simple, budgetary and at the same time sparing options for getting out of this shade. One of the solutions is Garnier Color E0. The thing is that the brightening powder in combination with the creamy texture of the paint does not act too destructively.
Of course, the hair, as with any other type of discoloration, deteriorates a little, but not to the extent that it happens after using the usual supra. In addition, the dye simultaneously tints the curls, that is, it partially smoothes out the effect of yellowness. The result is more or less natural, and the quality of the hair is preserved as much as possible.
Going to application
Well, we have figured out the main functions of Garnier E0 hair dye, and now we are moving on to the instructions for its use. There is nothing complicated in this, the process of mixing the ingredients and applying the dye to the hair is identical to all those that we do for other shades of this product. So, in a non-metallic bowl, you need to mix the powder from two sachets, the contents of a tube of cream paint and the contents of a jar of developer milk. Stir until the mass becomes homogeneous and looks like thick sour cream. Everything, the composition is ready for application.
Most often, women use the standard methodhair coloring. That is, the head is divided into four equal parts and each strand is alternately painted over with a brush. But it is worth remembering that this is not an ordinary paint and not a tonic, but a decolorant. Therefore, it is tedious to develop a special approach to it.
A little trick
Uneven lightening of the hairline is the biggest problem faced by almost all women who get rid of dark pigment. But what if, in any case, the strand that was dyed first brightens more than the one that was processed last? Is it really possible to “irrigate” the entire hair with a clarifier at once? Yes, you can, and it's not at all difficult to do. You won't need extra hands or outside help, moreover, thanks to this method, you can also maintain the he alth of your hair to a greater extent.
So, for starters, we dilute the contents of the Garnier E0 pack in a bowl, and then add a little shampoo there - about a third of the volume of the resulting mixture. Then you should rinse your hair with water, blot with a towel so that water does not flow from them and literally lather them with paint foamed in shampoo. As a result, we stab all this and hold it for half an hour, as stated in the instructions. The trick is that in just 2 minutes you will distribute the clarifier simultaneously over all curls, moreover, the shampoo will smooth out its destructive functions and at the same time cleanse your head. Then we wash everything off, process the hair with a mask and enjoy the result.
Features of getting out of black tone
Most often, Garnier Color NaturalsE0 "is acquired when they want to get rid of the dark tone of the hair. In order for the procedure to go smoothly, it is worth considering a few rules. The first is that before dyeing, you should not tint the roots for two months, as you did before. It is worth enduring and grow your natural color a little, otherwise there will be problems with lightening. Apply "Garnier E0" to the roots is not worth it if all your hair is dark.
The fact is that they will lighten much faster than the main hairline, and then you will have to get rid of color unevenness for a very long time. Therefore, we do not touch a couple of centimeters that have grown in two months, but we begin to apply the dye to those curls that are painted in dark colors. If you want to reach a platinum blonde, then start lightening the roots when the length becomes half a tone lighter than the roots.
Not without a redhead
No matter how flattering the reviews about "Garnier E0" are, and no matter how "magically" the manufacturers describe it, the paint does not make it possible to completely say goodbye to dark curls and become a platinum blonde at a time. Like any other lightening agent, it must be used in stages. You can do this both at a time, that is, put on makeup - washed it off, and so on 2, 3 or more times, or stretching the procedure for days or weeks (which is more acceptable for hair - they have time to recover at least a little).
When parting with dark coloring pigments, the hair will in any case become"rusty". The hue can be slightly smoothed out due to the presence of a dye in this product, but platinum or silver should not be expected. If you want to get out of black and become a brown-haired woman, then you should apply "Garnier E0" two or three times (photo of the result below), then neutralize this yellowness with a purple tonic, and only then choose the paint color that you want to wear in further, and toned them.
Features of staining roots
In fact, there is nothing problematic in painting over the roots in any color, and many girls do it themselves at home. But in the case of the Garnier E0 paint, you should take care of some nuances in advance. The fact is that this pigment cannot cope with yellowness completely, and further toning is required.
Therefore, after you apply the product to regrown roots, wash it off and dry your hair, apply purple tinting paint or tonic shampoo on top. By doing this time after time, all your hair will acquire a pleasant platinum hue, and yellowness will no longer be an urgent problem for you.
Fashion Coloring Techniques
If you have long dreamed of such toning as shatush or balayage, and do not dare to do it, then a simple, affordable and very effective beauty product "Garnier E0" can come to the rescue. Reviews about this tool, among other things, indicate that with its help you can easily and quickly lighten parthair or some curls. In some cases, additional tinting may be required, but in most cases this is not necessary at all.
Is it really all you need to just paint over individual strands with this dye? Yes exactly. Thanks to its unique formula, which combines supra and cream-color, the product quickly and gently brightens the strands, and at the same time creates the effect of light translucent tinting. You can enhance it with the help of tinted balms or tinting paints, or you can leave everything as it is.
How to do shatush?
If you are not familiar with the technique of shatush or balayage, be sure to learn all the nuances of applying dyes. When you do manipulations with the Garnier brightening beauty product, the type of application remains the same. First of all, it is worth making a thick pile. We note that the stronger you comb your hair, the nobler and more natural the result will be. After that, we apply the dye to the strands one by one, starting from the ends, and as if brushing off the paint, we move towards the roots, but do not touch them.
Pay special attention to the curls that frame the face - they should be as bright as possible. The occipital part is painted only partially, for the most part remains dark. After keeping the paint on the hair for half an hour, wash it off with shampoo and evaluate the results.
For whom?
The cream paint included in this product creates the effect of only light toning. It partially drowns out the yellowness, but does not completely cope with it. As a result, against the background of dark hair, almostcopper strands that sparkle and shimmer with all shades of gold and copper. A similar effect will look great on representatives of the autumn type. Also, if the skin has a warm undertone, is very tanned, or has freckles, this option can be a winning one. In such cases, you do not need toning, but you can enhance the copper effect by using the appropriate tint.
Who won't do?
Copper and gold palette will definitely look ridiculous against the background of cold color. In such cases, after applying the Garnier E0 decolorant, the reviews recommend using a purple tint shampoo or balm. This will maximally neutralize the warm shade that will turn out, and in the future you can give your hair a platinum color with another dye - tinting.
Note that this procedure will no longer be detrimental to the hair, but on the contrary, it will help restore them after bleaching. As part of the tinting agent, there is no ammonia, they are filled with oils and keratin, which cares for the hair and makes it shine.
User opinions
Most of the reviews about the Garnier E0 paint indicate that this beauty product is of very high quality and effective. It bleaches hair relatively gently, does not dry it out much, and practically does not burn it (subject to a reasonable dosage). At the same time, the dye slightly tints the strands, as a result, the color is obtained not like that of a chicken, butsimply golden, warm and rich.
It is easy to use the product - when mixed, it acquires a viscous and thick texture, so it does not flow, does not drip, but is easily distributed over the hair. Separately, the low price of this product was noted - about 150 rubles, which is quite affordable, especially considering such a high-quality and effective effect on the hair.
One should not lose sight of the disadvantages that are inherent in the dye "Garnier E0". Reviews from the photo are proof that in some cases the paint brightens the hair unevenly. Spots, transitions are formed, the tips may remain darker in comparison with the main hairline. Also, cream paint does not always cope well with the task of tinting - in some cases (especially when painting over dark regrown roots), yellowness appears. However, regarding all these points, we have already studied the strategies and tricks, and now we hope that you will be delighted with this beauty product.
Conclusion
Whatever women do with their hair - the beauty industry will develop new products over and over again to please all wishes. I am glad that not only expensive, effective, but at the same time inaccessible cosmetics are on sale, but also quite budget options that most women can afford. With their help, you can easily transform, and at the same time maintain the he alth of your hair. If you correctly use the decolorant "Garnier E0", you can very quickly say goodbye to the darkhair color, touch up regrown roots or make an interesting effect on curls using one of the complex coloring techniques.
