First, let's look at what glazing is and what it is used for. The glazing process is very similar to hair lamination, but unlike lamination, it has a completely cosmetic character, while lamination is aimed at healing.
The procedure consists in applying a special glaze to the hair, which includes ceramides and a moisturizing complex. Thanks to this composition, the mixture straightens the hair, makes it soft and silky, gives volume and a mirror appearance, and also dyes in natural shades.
There are 2 types of glazing, depending on the desired result, you can choose one of them.
Color glazing
As you understood from the name, this type of glazing involves a change in hair color. Unfortunately, the choice of colors is small. Glazing will not completely change your hair color, but rather give it a shade. Different manufacturers have a different number of shades. The largest choice is the company Matrix Color Sync, they have options for all types of hair, which is why this manufacturer is the most popular.
Colorless glazing
For heavily damaged and weakened hair, colorless glazing is recommended. The essence of the procedure does not change from this, just colorless is used instead of color gel. It gives the hair a mirror shine and softness. with colorless lamination, the hair also changes color, but the changes are very slight and are achieved due to shine and radiance. Some manufacturers even have different shades of colorless gel.
Glazing hair can be carried out in home conditions, all that is needed for this is sold in the public domain, however, with home glazing, it is very rarely possible to achieve the same results as in the salon. Therefore, in order not to pay twice, it is better to immediately use the services of a wizard.
Pros of salon glazing
- The procedure is absolutely safe for hair.
- Glazing does not weigh down the hair, and therefore is suitable even for the thinnest hair
- The color when glazing changes to 2 tones, and therefore it replaces the coloring
- You can mix different colors
- You can change the colors every month.
- Gives hair smoothness and volume, it becomes more docile and easy to style.
- Additional protection of hair from external irritants
- Keeps brightness and color fastness if coloring was carried out before glazing
Cons of salon glazing
- Poor selection of shades

If your hair needs additional nutrition and healing, then you better choose another procedure, for example, lamination, which externally has almost the same effect. But if you have healthy hair and you like to experiment, then glazing is created for you.
