What is degradation?
Before embarking on a fashionable coloring andtry to independently achieve the effect of degradation at home, let's see what it is - the coloring of degradation? Its name is this fashion technique of coloring received from the French word degrade, which literally means "semitone". And indeed, the secret of the beauty of this coloration is in semitones, a smooth transition of shades of hair one to another, from the darker one to a lighter one (and sometimes vice versa). It's interesting that degradation is not a new phenomenon: color transitions came into fashion in the seventies, though, then basically this technique was used to create clothes. And only recently thanks to the numerous Hollywood stars, the popularity and coloring of the degradation has gained.
In order to make the coloring of the degradation inAt home, it is very important to choose the right hair dye. If you have enough dark hair by nature (for example, dark-blond or chestnut shades), you will most likely need ammonium paint - the usual "light" bezammia paints will not give the desired effect. In addition, an important component - a shading toner shampoo or any other toning agent, with which we will align the final hair color.
Be sure to choose the shades of paint that areyou are best suited - otherwise after coloring the degradation your hair will look as if you just forgot to paint the roots in time, the staining will be untidy and unnatural.

Following the manufacturer's instructions exactly,we mix the hair dye - as a rule, a special bottle with an applicator comes with the paint, but you can mix the paint the way it is done in the salon - in a separate plastic container.
We fix the upper strands of hair on the vertex andwe put the paint on the lower strands of hair - not for the entire length of the strand, but only for half, especially carefully staining the tips. Depending on the style of staining you choose, you can only lighten the tips or paint the strand three-quarters of the length, in which case everything depends on your desire.
If you initially have a light shade of hair, thento achieve the effect of degradation will require a second shade of paint, which will need to paint over the top area of the hair. If you naturally have dark hair, and you only need to lighten the lower part of the strands to color the degradation, you can skip this step. Paint the upper part of hair with a second shade, be sure to wear clean gloves!
Carefully we paint all the strands, so that the final shade turns out to be homogeneous and natural.
Applying all the paint on your hair, hold forrecommended by the manufacturer of the time (usually twenty to thirty minutes, depending on the intensity of the paint and the initial color of the hair), then rinse and dry. That's all - the effect of degradation, a smooth overflow of shades of color from the darker to the lighter reached!
