A full head tint is a hair coloring process where a single color is applied to all of the hair, from roots to ends. This is a common method to change your overall hair color.
Purpose of a Full Head Tint
The main purpose of a full head tint is to:
- Change the shade of your hair: It can be used to make your hair darker or lighter.
- Cover gray hair: The tint effectively covers grey or white hair, providing a uniform color.
Darkening vs Lightening
- Darkening: It's typically easier to darken hair with a tint.
- Lightening: The success of lightening with a tint depends significantly on your natural hair color, requiring more care and possibly multiple sessions to achieve the desired result.
How a Full Head Tint is Applied
A full head tint involves:
- Mixing the chosen hair color with a developer.
- Applying the mixture evenly to all of your hair, ensuring all strands are saturated.
- Waiting for a designated time as per the product instructions.
- Rinsing the hair until the water runs clear.
- Shampooing and conditioning.
Considerations
- It's important to choose a hair color that suits your skin tone and personal style.
- Consulting with a professional stylist is advisable, especially for significant color changes or if you have concerns.
- Always conduct a patch test before applying a full head tint to avoid allergic reactions.
