Who needs the nut color?
Walnut hair has its own shades, which are divided into light, dark and nutty with amber tint. Such shades are suitable for almost any type, and are also popular among women of different ages.
Pros of walnut color:
- Walnut hair color is an excellent solution for creating an intermediate tone between light and light brown hair color.
- If you have long wanted to change the image, but did not want to greatly affect the color of your hair, then a nutty tone will help give your hair a beautiful shade.
- Walnut color refers to natural colors.
Light walnut
The most popular shade of walnut color is a light tone.. This shade enlivens any image, gives the hair a beautiful caramel or golden tint, and also visually rejuvenates the face.
The most magnificent combination is created by the combination of light walnut hair, brown or green eyes. Also, it is perfect for girls with freckles or pinkish skin. Often, a light nut is confused with light brown hair, but the latter is less saturated. Therefore, if you want to update your natural blond hair color, then you can repaint it in a light nut.
Dark walnut
Dark walnut is characterized by rich shades of coffee, as well as chestnut color. Dark walnut is excellent with dark eye color, as well as with dark skin. But if you pick up a dark nut with a silver tint, then it is suitable for representatives of white, porcelain skin.
Amber Walnut
Amber nut combines notes of copper, chestnut, as well as light tones of walnut. Thanks to this mixture, amber nut is suitable for any color type of a girl, but it will look especially good on owners of freckles and light brown eyes.
Sometimes hazelnut is also attributed to amber. But hazelnuts are less saturated in tone, which is more like a dark nut without a distinctive, amber tint.
How to repaint walnut at home
It can be repainted in a nut color at home, but it is worth remembering some rules:
- Do not overdo the dye on the hair. In each pack there is an instruction where it is indicated from which color you would like to switch to walnut, and the right time is everywhere. In any case, it is not recommended to overexpose the paint, otherwise you can get a blurry, faded tone.
- If you had highlighting, then it is better in terms of repainting to go to the salon.
- Dark hair before dyeing in a nut color should be lightened almost to white.
- If you have thin and damaged hair, then purchase an oxidizing agent for them separately. Indeed, in a pack with dye, even if it is without ammonia, the oxidizing agent has 12% saturation, and such hair needs a maximum of 2%.
