A Complete Guide to Solving Sunkissed Hair Fear # 1: Sunstrokes Going Bad! Read professional (and non-professional) remedies, suggested by experts

It is one of the worst nightmares of those who turn to the hairdresser with the request of one sunkissed hair: leaving the salon with the wrong highlights! A disaster that, on closer inspection, can take on different meanings. The coveted “streaks” can, in fact, be too light or too dark or, again, too sharp and wide! And tend towards orange. In short, a result that is far from that beautiful mix of golden blondes and light browns dosed with art that you dream while browsing the images of Google or magazines. Maybe inspired by the hair looks of the stars.

What to do to remedy the highlights you don’t like

First of all, it is good to abandon the idea of ​​remedying alone by covering the highlights with a home dye: the risk of finding yourself with a orange hair or greenish is very high! At most, one can resort to one direct coloring, which temporarily covers the fatal error. It is a product that is deposited on the hair, without affecting the shaft already compromised by the discoloration, and goes away after 6-8 shampoos. Looking forward to go to a professional.

The suggestion is, therefore, of contact the hairdresser, explaining in detail what they don’t like of the sunstrokes just made. Times? Better not wait more than a week.

How to fix icolpi di sole come badly?

We asked the question a 3 color gurus, who helped us translate the “hairdresser” into the desires of those who imagine themselves with one hair kissed by the sun like that of Gigi Hadid.

The correction of the wrong highlights goes hand in hand with “what” specifically does not like.

If the highlights are too light

Are the highlights or highlights clear and even? “A” flat “blonde effect (when in reality” movement “was desired) is contrasted by inserting darker blonde areas, which give depth to the color and new dimension to the cut” – he says Katia Prosapio, hairstylist for Jean Louis David

Are they clear but with streaks you don’t like?

In this case, too light highlights can be “reflected” with coloring masks which, in addition to solving the problem, nourish hair sensitized by previous lightening. «If you want to darken more permanently but less permanently than a tint, you can ask for one semi-permanent coloring and without ammonia »- he says Pino Buon Arrival, hair stylist and teacher Evos Hairdressers.

What are the right shades to correct icolpi di sole?

The nuances to fix streaks and highlights that have come badly are those brown. The hairdresser will choose them based on the height of tone of the blonde that he has to perfect. Newer techniques create polishing effects which aim both to slightly darken the highlights that are too blond and at the same time to obtain the desired reflections. This is the case of “Chocolat Blush”, an exclusive service proposed by Franck Provost that delicately remedies any lightening that you don’t like. In the Jean Louis David salons, the Lift Color technique remedies too light highlights, proceeding “in reverse”: the color scales from a lighter shade at the root to a darker shade at the tips, all with a progressive effect.

If the highlights are too dark

Do you see too little lightening on your hair? «The ideal is repeat the highlights, but only on strategic points of the cut: in this way two blond intensities are obtained that frame the face and create a personalized look – replies Katia Prosapio by Jean Louis David ». On very long hair you can be more daring, inserting new very light locks that overall add brightness.

If the highlights are too loose

Meches look more like contrasting bands between blondes and browns, instead of harmonic lightening? “There are two options – suggests Lucia Barra, Frank Provost’s trainer – you can create deeper locks with a different shades of blond: in this way it reduces the width of the “strip”. Or you can opt for a more uniform color on the entire hair, to then create more delicate and natural highlights ».

The marked effects which give the impression of having one striped head they are corrected with plays of shades between the base color and the lightener, especially if the clear drawings are only on the roots.

If the highlights are too yellow

Often the lightened hair naturally brings out the unsightly yellow pigment: «if it is excessive, a non-invasive coloring service is performed in the salon that neutralizes the yellow. Then it is important to maintain this effect even at home with adequate shampoos and conditioners: usually contain purple pigments that “eliminate” too yellow highlights »- continues Lucia Barra of Franck Provost.

Can I darken my hair with streaks at home?

If you are sure you want to correct lightening and highlights on your own that you do not like, it is good to proceed with caution. Uses semi-permanent colors which are eliminated after a few washes. We do not recommend henna or other herbal dyes because it is not possible to know a priori how the bleached hair will react in contact with dyeing herbs.

One remedy to remedy bad sunburn is use the toning, a product sold in hairdressing supply stores, which “adjusts the tone” of one wrong coloring. It does no damage and only colors superficially, according to amount of pigments contents. If the goal is to darken the hair, it is suggested to buy a product in caramel-brown tones.

What can be done at home before going to the salon

“Just” to use anti-yellow shampoo if necessary, or specific products for colored hair which, in addition to protecting the color, deeply moisturize and nourish the hair fiber. «For the most serious” interventions “it is good to rely on professional colourists” – unanimously conclude the coloring experts.
