The Color Wheel: Understanding tones & how to compliment or neutralize them.

Primary colors are the foundation of the color wheel. These colors cannot be created from other colors and are considered pure: blue, red, and yellow. Blue is often associated with calmness and tranquility. It has a cool tone and is commonly used to symbolize loyalty and intelligence. Red is passionate and energetic, representing power and strength. It is warm-toned and signifies love and excitement. Yellow is bright and cheerful, associated with happiness and optimism. It evokes feelings of warmth and sunshine.

Secondary colors are formed by mixing two primary colors. Mixing equal parts of blue and red creates purple, which is often associated with nobility and creativity. It combines the tranquility of blue with the passion of red. Green is created by mixing equal parts of blue and yellow. It is a color of balance and harmony, symbolizing nature and growth. Orange is formed by mixing equal parts of red and yellow. This vibrant color is associated with enthusiasm and energy.

When primary colors and secondary colors are placed opposite each other on the color wheel, they create complementary colors. Complementary colors neutralize each other when combined, creating a more neutral or grayish tone. For example, red is the complementary color of green, blue is the complement of orange, and yellow is the complement of purple. When these complementary colors are mixed together, they create a muted or neutralized tone.

Understanding the color wheel can help in creating harmonious color schemes and understanding how different colors interact with each other. It allows artists, designers, and anyone interested in color theory to make informed decisions when it comes to selecting and combining colors.

Become a hair color pro in ten beauty tips

Become a hair color pro in ten beauty tips

A little light or a few reflections, a darker shade that would go well with your eyes or a pretty chestnut all in nuance: and if you change your hair color? To be sure to succeed at home, it is best to follow some good practical advice. How to choose your color? How to get a natural result? How to maintain color and keep beautiful hair? Doctissimo asked all these questions to Marie, a passionate tester of hair products and especially colorings. With his website My hair color created in 2015, she gives advice for successful coloring, shares her product tests and helps you choose the hair color that suits you. Get my coloring done in ten tips, let's go! 

Before: Can we afford everything in coloring?

Technically, you can do almost everything in terms of colors. But the main risk of coloring is especially to damage your hair. The principle: the more we try to go from a very dark color to a very light color (or atypical, like pink or blue), the more the discoloration will have to be important, and therefore major the risk of breakage or even weaken its hair. In addition, to obtain a color very far from its own, repeated oxidations are necessary in order to remove color residues ... which particularly damages the hair. In general, it will be easier to switch from a light to a dark color than the reverse.

Before: getting into streaks: good or bad idea?

For the very first time, it is still better to make your locks in a salon, for advice, and to choose the right color. Then you can more easily maintain your color at home. It is certain that carrying it out at home makes great savings, so it is worth trying, but not for the first time. Again, for the first time at home, it is better to start in low-risk colors (that is to say in shades close to your current color or in the same range) versus a radical color (go from blonde to black for example).

Before: How to choose the right product?

Depending on its basic or current color and the color you want to achieve, the type of product will be different: - To change from a dark shade to a light shade, you will need to use a coloring that contains oxidizing agents to bleach the hair and obtain a lighter color (permanent coloring). - If your hair is damaged, opt for vegetable dyes, less aggressive. - If you just want reflections, make a sweep, less radical than a complete coloring. Better to choose a brand that has proven itself of course. So do not hesitate to read the customer reviews before.

Before: Choose the right color

In absolute terms, everything is possible, but when you start coloring at home, it is better to remain somewhat reasonable, at least for the first time. The ideal is therefore to choose a shade of 2 to 3 tones maximum below or above its basic color. If the objective is to obtain a very natural result, trust the color of your eyebrows, a very good indicator to avoid that your color clashes with the harmony of your face. You can also determine your color according to your skin tone (depending on whether you have a fair complexion or darker skin) and the color of your eyes to highlight them. One watchword for a natural result: so watch out for too great contrasts! Finally, it is obviously necessary to take into account your desires of the moment and the condition of your hair.

After: How long should I space my colors?

A few weeks or a few months: it all depends on the color chosen, depending on whether it is a permanent color or a temporary color. Ideally, you should space your colors as much as possible to avoid damaging the hair. You can also color only the roots to avoid doing all the hair, and thus space out the full coloring

During: What essential accessories?

If you are embarking on the “home coloring” adventure, you must be well prepared and have all the utensils: - The coloring cap if you do a scan, - Gloves to protect your hands, - A coloring blouse, or at least a large towel to which you do not care, - A brush kit, Now let's go: when applying, put on your gloves, start with the roots and gradually apply the product to the tips so as not to forget the surface. Help yourself with an ice cream or ask a friend to help you if necessary!

After: A beauty tip?

Look for the natural color in relation to your eyebrows to avoid the fashion faux pas! Indeed, black eyebrows with platinum blonde hair rarely go well together ...

After: Things not to do!

- It is quite stupid but one of the beginner's mistakes is to provide too little coloring ... Depending on your hair mass, possibly plan 2 tubes of product, so as not to end up with the finished tube and the half of the colored head… - 2 nd mistake not to commit: not respecting the exposure time. You will not see the final result until a few days later so do not trust the color you see during the coloring!

After: How to extend your color?

The first tip is to use shampoos repigmenting the color of your dye to keep the pigments as long as possible. Hydration is also essential. Some actions not recommended: - Wash your hair too often (the color disgorges with each wash) - Exposure to the sun, the sea, the swimming pool without protection - Use heating devices such as straightening irons, curlers or an excessively hot hair dryer. In general, to avoid damaging your hair, take care! After coloring, the hair may be dehydrated or brittle. So jump on the moisturizing masks, or make cures based on natural oils. The objective? Feed them deeply to avoid having discolored straw on their heads! Good point: these targeted treatments will enhance your color all the more.

Before: the result, the same from one person to another?

Not always ! The results can be very different depending on the condition of the hair: is it dry, brittle? Is it porous? Has your hair already undergone multiple coloring? What is its nature (stiff, curly)? Depending on all these parameters, hair can react differently to the same color, and give different colors. To ensure a pretty color, it is better that the hair is healthy and in good health. If this is not the case, take the time to make masks for a few weeks and postpone your color accordingly ... if you are patient enough.

What should you watch out for during application?

- Make a test on the skin beforehand to be sure of not making any allergic reaction, then make a test on a wick at the base of the scalp (at the nape of the neck) to check the result before applying the coloring on all the hair. - Put a fatty substance (cream or oil) on the contours of the face under the hairline so that the coloring does not take on the down of the forehead. - Respect the exposure time, even if it means coloring again a week later.
