Tonic for hair - what is it and how to use it?

According to experts, about 70 percent of women in Europe prefer not to dye their hair, but to tint them using a special coloring agent - a hair tonic. What is he so deserving of their love? The advantage of toning before the usual painting is the following - it has a fairly light and gentle effect, does not penetrate deeply into the structure of the hair and, accordingly, does not destroy it. After the procedure of toning, the hair acquires a healthy shine and does not require special care, as after the application of ordinary paint.

Tinting hair colors are an excellent choice for girls with long, luxurious hair. When choosing this tool, it is worth considering that the hair tonic is a remedy that is not resistant. On the one hand - it's not very convenient, on the other - you can change the color of your hair at least every two weeks! In this case, you can not be afraid that the hair will become dry, brittle and lifeless. With the latter very often encounter lovers of traditional staining agents - after several procedures have to stock up all kinds of jars with restoring balms and masks, regularly trim the tips of hair.

Hair coloring agents can be divided into two types: gentle, light and deep. The first type includes light foams and shampoos that are washed off after 2 weeks. Paints of deep impact do not contain ammonia in their composition and last up to 2 months.

Tonic for hair, as a rule, is enriched with a lot of additional components, caring for the hair, as well as giving them a healthy shine and a rich tint.
