If we say that eco,
sustainable
and everything that has to do with a more responsible consumption is in fashion, we are not discovering the formula of Coca-Cola.
Because the trend is reflected in habits such as buying second-hand when it comes to clothes, or renting a dress instead of wasting on a design that will be rare for us to use more than once.
In terms of beauty, and if we talk about hair, it is
the natural, vegetable and organic dyes
(which have been used since the beginning of time, by the way) that gain points by leaps and bounds, a fact that is reflected in a
growing demand
for these services in salons, not just at home.
What are natural or vegetable dyes (not just henna)
In a natural dye, nature
replaces chemistry.
They will sound more like
henna
(a term used extensively to sometimes refer to almost any
organic dye,
since it is the most popular) or
mud
(because the mixture always looks like that, wet earth).
In reality, natural dyes can be made up of extracts from
plants, woods, flowers,
algae and earths, which include botanical actives such as clays, minerals, henna leaves, soy leaves, linseed, walnut shell,
indigo leaves, thyme. ,
birch and tea - a whole world! -, according to the hairdresser
Rogelaine Tomé da Costa,
from Rogelaine Lifestyle (Madrid).
As we said, the most famous of the vegetable dyes is henna,
a leaf of the lawsona inermis plant
that, when crushed, has been used to give color since time immemorial.
And then there are those who dye naturally with oil formulas, such as
Dimitri Barm,
creative director of DIM Salón in Madrid, who adds
various oils such
as calendula, almond or argan
to the plants
to improve pigment.
What is the difference between a 'normal' dye and a natural or vegetable dye
Although we love to dye and achieve
super-special tones that are
far removed from the capillary reality that accompanies us, the reality is that
chemical dye,
the one of all life, something does damage the hair.
This is unavoidable, as one of the common compounds in oxidation dyes is
ammonia,
which is used to open the cuticle and aid in the
penetration of pigments
and oxidant.
With this and other chemical formulas, reflections of all kinds are achieved,
'lightened' -including platinum-,
all kinds of fantasy colors and
total gray coverage ...
But of course, the fact of 'opening the cuticle' damages the fiber, and as a consequence
the hair looks drier,
dull, perhaps more frizzy.
Another 'but':
the root effect,
which requires retouching every few weeks.
Natural dyes hide gray hair, do not leave a root effect, leave the hair shiny ... Do you want more?
In natural dyes,
the contribution of color is less,
it is not possible to alter the color, they simply provide reflections of different types, according to the natural base of the hair.
However, "they respect the hair fiber, treat both the scalp and hair, thicken the fiber and
provide a lot of hydration
-and shine-", says Rogelaine Tomé da Costa.
These
'go away' with the washing,
and do not uncover the telltale root, but the color is gradually diluted.
That is why its duration varies depending on the frequency of washing, between two and three months approximately.
Who is a natural dye for
Each and every one of the manes can use natural dyes.
They work on natural hair,
but also dyed;
in brunettes, blondes, brown or redheads;
treated with semi-permanent jobs ... An organic coloring likes all hair, just as the actress
María Esteve
did not disgust any pasta in the movie
'The other side of the bed'.
They are even good at taking care of possible "scalp conditions
like
oil and dandruff," adds Rogelain.
What shades can be achieved
The change that occurs with a natural dye is
not radical
, the truth is ahead.
But you can get nuances.
"For example, indigo, a straight-stemmed shrub with compound leaves with reddish flowers, is used to add bluish and violet tones to dark hair; walnut also
enhances chestnut
and hibiscus enhances coppers; black tea helps to darken the tone and chamomile keep the
most beautiful blondes ",
specifies Dimitri Barm.
And a perfect mixture of henna replicates the natural base color (respecting highlights if there are any), enhancing its tone, giving it shine and
hiding gray hair.
If you want to leave your hair with gray hair, the natural dye helps you in the transition.
Natural dyes and gray hair: what they do and what they don't
Let's talk in detail about what a natural dye does
on gray hair.
Hennas, muds and other organic colorations do not stain as such, as they do not penetrate the hair fiber,
but they do attenuate them.
Hairdressers who work with vegetable dyes often say that these organic colorations
'drunk' gray hair: they
nuance and hide them in the hair complex.
For this reason, because they do not cover the
gray hair
but they blend it with the rest of the set, in such a way that it
remains as a reflection
instead of white hair, it is ideal for those who want to grow gray hair in the future but do not yet have the most of the silver mane.
It is the best way to
disguise without spoiling the hair
until the gray prevails in the hair.
In addition to that, we remember, it
does not leave a root effect ...
