Hair color bitter dark chocolate. Before and after photos, paint, who suits

One of the most popular shades for hair, instantly transforming any female image, giving it brightness, inaccessibility and passion - dark chocolate. From the photographs, you can see that for a tone very close to saturated black, dark chocolate, overflows are characteristic, reflected in a luxurious noble sheen, adding additional volume to the hairstyle.

Who suits the hair color dark chocolate

Hair color dark chocolate (the photo shows a rich, noble shade of brown) gives the image a restrained elegance. The chocolate sheen easily softens the cold black color, emphasizing the facial features and giving the rock look extra softness.

Chocolate hair color is suitable for almost all girls, being:

• ashy;
• frosty;
• nutty;
• bitter;
• dark;
• light;
• coffee;
• warm;
• chestnut;
• redhead;
• dairy;
• with the addition of red, yellow, purple shades.

Choosing a chocolate shade should be strictly depending on your color type:

The intensity of the shade depends on the amount of coloring pigments. Bitter chocolate is considered to be intermediate between brown and black colors, characterized by the predominance of dark brown pigments without the inclusion of red, yellow and red tints.

In addition to its special brightness, the shade of dark chocolate:

• visually gives the hairstyle additional density;
• creates a natural, luxurious look;
• gives expressiveness to facial features;
• visually stretches the oval of the face;
• allows you to complement the image of a fatal beauty with unapproachable elegance and charm.

A shade of dark chocolate applied to blonde hair allows you to get absolutely any color: from pleasant dark brown to aggressive black.

The monochrome shade of dark chocolate is suitable only for swarthy or fair-skinned girls of the winter color type. This color is most advantageously combined with olive skin and dark, emerald or blue eyes, allowing you to give a new look additional expressiveness and radiance.

For owners of a plump, rounded face, dark curls will visually stretch the face, giving the necessary thinness.

Dark chocolate shade not suitable:

• Girls who have redness, wrinkles or pimples on their face. Dark hair is recommended only for clear skin, as it visually emphasizes all existing imperfections.
• Light-skinned blondes, as well as owners of blue, gray, gray-green eyes. Light lashes and eyebrows will also create strong contrast on the face and will require daily tinting.
• For women over 50, since very dark, cold colors visually add age, emphasize all imperfections of the face, creating a haggard and tired look. The ideal age for applying dark chocolate is 20-35 years old.
• Lovers of naturalness and nude makeup. The shade of dark chocolate requires a must-have, daily bright makeup.
• Very thin girls. Dark hair strongly stretches the face, making the natural thinness painful.

Effect of natural hair color

Hair color dark chocolate (photographs reflect the result of dyeing) ideally fits on light or light blond hair, allowing you to radically change the usual image almost from the first dyeing. In other cases, the saturation and purity of the resulting tone directly depend on the natural shade of the hairstyle and the previously carried out coloring.

• Best of all, the dye lays on light or medium-brown hair that has not been previously dyed. Do not combine the application of a dark shade with a red tint to avoid the appearance of an unwanted green sheen.
• The natural black color should be lightened by 1-2 tones to obtain a chocolate shade.
• Red hair is dyed with dark or black shades. It is better to do this procedure in the salon, since self-coloring of hair of this color will not give a good result.
• Previously applied black colors to hair should be washed off before coating.

It is necessary to correct the created hairstyle at least once every 3-4 weeks, since the regrown light strands will instantly give the image a sloppy look.

Coloring ideas

Dark chocolate hair color (photographs convey the saturation of the hue) is traditionally achieved through a single color, which allows you to achieve a monochrome tone. In salons, such a shade can be recreated with other techniques that allow you to transform the image less radically, while allowing the hair to sparkle with new colors.

Highlighting

Gentle coloring, visually giving the hair additional volume and allowing you to renew the image without radical solutions. With the help of highlighting, the effect of sun-burnt hair is created.

The shade of dark chocolate looks most advantageous in the Californian coloring technique, which allows you to create a smooth transition from a lighter to darker shade. With this technique, paint should be applied to individual strands, drying them without the help of foil.

Coloring

Multi-colored highlighting, created using several similar or different tones.

Depending on the technology of application and the number of colors used, coloring can be:

• horizontal, requiring the use of 3-4 shades;
• vertical, requiring the use of 4 to 14 different colors.

The coloring effect is achieved by creating a smooth transition from the darkest to the lightest tone.

Ombre

Coloring, carried out in 2 shades, in which the hair segment at the roots is painted over with the darkest color, gradually branching towards the ends. Ombre allows for a smooth or abrupt transition and looks especially good on long, dark hair, making it possible to stretch chocolate shades from almost black to coffee or caramel.

Bronding

It combines the effect of highlighting and coloring, carried out by 3-4 shades close to each other.This technique is considered ideal for dark chocolate color, creating a very effective and elegant look.

Shatush

The effect of creating a play of sunlight on the hair looks as natural as possible, making it possible for the dark chocolate color to sparkle with new colors.

Painting rules at home

This hair color is easiest to reproduce in the salon. The master will examine the client's hair, assess the structure and residues of previous coloring pigments, and then independently mix the shades necessary for the desired color. It is quite difficult to do self-painting at home.

Such a procedure requires careful preparation and adherence to certain rules.

It is important to remember that:

• Finished paints can change the natural color by no more than 2-3 tones.
• The original color cannot be drastically changed. If there is a strong difference in the natural shade, several stains are required to make smooth color transitions.
• Allergies can occur to industrially manufactured dyes, therefore, a hypersensitivity test must be carried out before dyeing. The occurrence of burning and redness requires the immediate removal of the coloring composition from the skin.
• It is impossible to overexpose the paint of a dark chocolate shade for more than the time indicated in the instructions on the hair, due to the likelihood of a bright black color.
• Coloring curls that have previously dealt with henna will lead to the formation of a dark shade with a green tint on the hair.
• During staining, it is necessary to monitor the activity of the coloring pigments, periodically washing off one strand. This is done to prevent a very strong effect of the coloring pigment, which easily turns into a darker tone.
• Only hair with no more than 50% gray hair can be painted over with ready-made cream paints.
• Before dyeing, cut off the split ends of the hair. This is done because dry strands absorb more dye, becoming much brighter than the roots.

Any staining is an aggressive procedure that requires indispensable preparation:

• Firming masks should be started 2-3 weeks before staining. You can use ready-made cosmetics or burdock, coconut oils, with vitamin B5 and retinol added to them.
• When using permanent dye, the hair should not be washed for 3-4 days. The natural fat layer will protect the strands from the aggressive effects of ammonia. Permanent-free paints can be prepared for 2 days. Also, do not apply styling products before coloring.

For self-staining you will need:

• cream paint;
• brush;
• a porcelain or plastic bowl for mixing ingredients;
• non-metallic comb;
• hair clips;
• any greasy cream;
• disposable gloves;
• polyethylene cap;
• a towel or a cape on the shoulders.

Step by step execution of work:

1. Before staining, you should read the instructions for the dye.
2. The oxidizing agent and coloring pigment are mixed in a bowl until smooth.
3. The shoulders are covered with a cape.
4. The hair is combed and a little sprayed with water.
5. The skin located along the hairline is lubricated with a fat cream.
6. With a brush, gently, moving from the root to the end, the cream paint is distributed through the hair, starting from the back of the head.
7. After hair treatment, the dye is reapplied to the strands.
8. Hair smeared with pigment is combed, gathered into a ponytail and fixed at the back of the head.
9. A hat is put on the head (for greater color brightness, you can put a towel on top of the hair).
10. The holding time of the paint is clearly stated in the instructions, but as a rule it does not exceed 30 minutes.
11. During the waiting periods, one strand is periodically cleaned to determine the intensity of the color.
12. After the expiration of the time specified in the instructions, the hair is well rinsed with running water.
13. For a brighter color, the head should be rinsed with conditioner.

When dyeing the roots, the pigment is first 15-20 minutes. kept on the hair roots, and then applied to the rest of the strand, where it is left for another 15 minutes. Masking gray hair requires an additional 10-minute exposure.

How to keep color for a long time

A dark chocolate shade of hair, as shown in the photo, can quickly lose its attractiveness, under the influence of:

• UV rays;
• chlorinated water;
• high temperatures;
• various oils.

To avoid rapid color fading after staining, you need:

1. Use special shampoos and conditioners. Products for the care of colored hair reliably cover the scales, preventing the dye from washing out.
2. If possible, do not go to the pools or be sure to wear a rubber cap before swimming to prevent the aggressive effects of chlorine in the water.
3. Dry your hair only naturally, without using a curling iron or hair dryer.
4. Protect hair from UV rays by wearing hats.

After 2-3 weeks, you can begin to prepare curls for a new coloring using nutritious oils.

As the photos confirm, the incredibly bright and seductive shade of hair, dark chocolate, will instantly make its owner stand out. The correct selection of paint and adherence to the rules for coloring and care will allow the color to have a shiny and attractive look for a long time, creating a spectacular, simultaneously cold and sexy image of a real fatal beauty.
