Men's hair dyes: varieties, brands and tips for choosing

Women are considered the fair sex because they always look beautiful and spend a lot of time creating the perfect look. However, in the modern world, men do not lag behind women - they also want to be attractive and stylish, and many of them do not consider it unacceptable to dye their hair. In addition, now there are even special paints for men.

Striving to look good at any age - this is absolutely normal for a man, and he should not be ashamed of his desire to dye his hair... For example, painting over gray hair, a man feels younger, confident, attractive, and this feeling lifts his spirits.

Actually, gray hair is just a common reason for wanting to dye your hair. Middle-aged men rarely decide to radically change their image, mainly modern young guys who want to be bright and stand out in the crowd.

Some products are suitable for dyeing mustaches and beards. These are easy-to-use preparations that include all the necessary equipment - protective gloves and an applicator. The change in shade occurs within 5-10 minutes, because a man is not used to spending a lot of time on his appearance. Manufacturers take this into account.

Also, most remedies for men has a long-lasting effect. Usually the shade lasts for at least two months and withstands 15-17 shampooing sessions. The difference is also the description of the color on the package. For example, a woman will not be embarrassed by the veiled name of the shade "Frosty chestnut", while a man, seeing this combination, will most likely be surprised, so it is easier for him to understand names such as "dark blond" or "light red".

Men's paints can be classified into the following types:

• persistent;
• medium-resistant;
• sparing.

Persistent samples include products with a high ammonia content. These drugs paint over gray hair well, but have a negative effect on the hair. Medium-lasting dyes contain less ammonia, so they keep hair healthier.

If the scale of the problem is greater, then ammonia-resistant paint is indispensable. Keep in mind that ammonia paint should be used much less frequently than harmless paint.
• If coloring is carried out for the first time, then it is recommended to choose a lighter tone, so that in case of an unsatisfactory result, the situation can be corrected faster and easier.
• When choosing a paint of an extreme color, coordinate the selected shade with a stylist in advance. Such shades are washed off for a long time, and it is not a fact that this or that color tone suits a particular man, so in case of doubt, you should not risk it.
• For an easy change of image, pick up related shades. So, black, chocolate or nut tones are suitable for dark hair. It is recommended to lighten such hair gradually and gently to light brown-haired or dark blonde colors.

Women's and men's paints have several differences. Above they have already been mentioned - this is the composition of the paint, and the action, and the method of application.

If, among male products, a young man cannot find a suitable shade for his hairstyle (usually this applies to extreme tones), then You can also use women's paint, but for this, follow a couple of rules.

• Do not use the female version for dyeing the mustache, beard and eyebrows - for this purpose, you can use only a male remedy, and then not every one.
• The instructions for women's dye often mention the need to apply to unwashed hair. We recommend that a man break this rule and wash his hair a couple of hours before staining for a more satisfactory result.
