How to choose a tinted hair conditioner Concept

Balm "Concept" allows you to change the depth of tone, to give a cold or warm nuance. When choosing a product, the original color of the strands is taken into account. Blond, red and dark hair vary in density and amount of pigment. The appropriate level of stability of the balm depends on these characteristics.

For blondes

Blond hair is naturally thin and soft. The amount of pigment is small, so the hairstyle is easy to color. For toning, a balm with a firmness level of 0 or 1 is suitable, which works gently and does not damage fine hair.

The Blond Explosion line contains cold and warm shades of a light palette:

• balsams "Arktika", "Pearl effect" and "Ash" give the hair a cold silver tone;
• balm "Sand" gives a warm golden shine.

Fair Hair from the Fresh Up collection transforms blonde hair into a cool blonde tone.

For brunettes

Shades for brunettes are included in the Fresh Up line:

• balm Brown Hair will emphasize the warm brown tone;
• Black Hair will add a cool shade and shine to black hair.

For brown-haired women

The peculiarity of red and brown hair is the brightness and excess of pigment, which is difficult to defeat with dyes.

Reviews of tint hair balm Concept

Users rate the Concept tool positively. Women are attracted by the simplicity of use and the reasonable price of the balm. Dyed hair, judging by the reviews, gets an even natural shade and shine, retains a well-groomed appearance and softness.

Balsams Blond Explosion and Fresh Up Brown deserve the highest ratings. Products for "blondes" neutralize yellowness, giving an even platinum tone. Blond Explosion Balm will not give a purple hue if you distribute the product evenly over the strands and do not leave it longer than the recommended period.

Bright and dark brown-haired women like the Fresh Up Brown and Fresh Up Red Hair collections. Balms make red and brown hair brighter, enhance shine. Cons found in the Coppery Hair and Black Hair lines.Balms for copper hair maintain the color of the dyed base, but hardly change the shade. Black Hair makes hair dry.

When painting over gray hair, "Concept" has a cumulative effect. The balm masks silvery hair if used regularly for 4-5 applications.

The packaging and the low durability of the balm deserved a negative assessment:

• thick preparation is poorly squeezed out through the dispenser;
• the dye begins to leave the hair at the 2nd washing session, flowing down with the strands in colored streams. The pigment will stick into the bathroom enamel if the dirt is not wiped off immediately.

Tinted balm Concept is suitable for women who want to refresh the image without risk to health and image.

The toner does not damage the hair and only slightly corrects the original color. "Concept" will emphasize the beauty of the natural shade of hair, preserve the brightness of salon coloring and allow you to experiment with a fashionable palette.
