How to change hair color without using dye. Modern colors - a fashion for uniqueness and absolute individuality

We are already accustomed to seeing flowers that are not quite ordinary in color on the shelves of flower shops. Looking at the various outlandish colors of roses, tulips and other flowers we love, we often wonder whether such flowers could have grown themselves or whether they were forced to be like that by simply repainting them.

Often, flowers are not painted, but they are trying to grow them so that they acquire an unusual shade for themselves. In fact, this is a whole science. And, nevertheless, nothing prevents you from changing the color of flowers at home.

To change the color of the plucked flowers, it is necessary to prepare a solution of sulfuric ether and ammonia. The ingredients must be mixed in a 9: 1 ratio. The resulting mixture must be poured into a dish or plate and hold over it the flower that you are planning to repaint.

Never immerse the flowers in the mixture. Immersion in this liquid can have a bad effect on the flowers, there is even the possibility of their death. However, you can lightly sprinkle the flowers with this solution. In this case, small specks will appear on their petals. To avoid holding the flower over the plate, you can attach it to a paper funnel made to cover the liquid. Vapors of a mixture of sulfuric ether and ammonia will transform your pink or purple flowers to yellow, white, or even green.

You can give white roses and dahlias with your own hands a wonderful blue color. To do this, you need to take a flower and lower it first into a fuchsin solution, and then into a potash solution. This method has been known since ancient times. It was used when it became necessary to get blue roses that did not exist in nature. Nowadays, the Japanese were able to grow real blue roses.

You can color in this way not only roses and dahlias, but also hyacinths, gladioli, white tulips. And if you water a white rose bush with such a mixture, then perhaps you will be able to make the bush bloom with blue flowers.

Make a white rose out of a red rose? At first glance, this seems impossible. But nothing is impossible. We place a lighted piece of combustible sulfur in an airtight jar. Place the red rose there too. Now you can observe that, as if by magic, the rose turned from red to white. This is due to the anthocyanin contained in red roses, which is successfully discolored with the help of sulfur dioxide.

However, the miracles do not end there. A discolored rose exposed to air will regain its red color after a long enough period of time. Imagine if you present such flowers as a gift, for example, for your birthday. How, probably, the birthday boy will be surprised when he sees the transformation.

Flowers painted in this way can be presented as a romantic surprise that will symbolize your growing love. So you can give white color to asters, gladioli, violets and other flowers containing anthocyanin.

How to change the color of flowers: the secrets of transformation

• If you immerse the flowers purple colors in a weak solution of hydrochloric acid, you can easily get bright red buds.
• Cigarette smoke, it turns out, can bring not only harm to your health, but also benefit in experiments with changing the color of flowers. If you hold over cigarette smoke blue flowers swamp forget-me-nots, you can see how they very quickly acquire green coloration. Ammonium contained in tobacco smoke is the reason for these changes. Ammonium carbonate has an alkaline reaction, therefore, penetrating into the tissues of the flower, it transforms the blue color into green. Meanwhile, green flowers almost always seem inconspicuous, but it is quite possible to get them for the sake of experiment.

• Ammonia has a very interesting effect on the color of flowering plants. With the help of ammonia vapors, you can transform (using a sealed container) petals of purple, blue and violet colors in green. The same remedy will work on dark red flowers, making them black! White roses, lilies and other flowers of this color will become yellow under the influence of the same vapors of ammonia. Thus, the most intricate and fantastic changes acquire flowers with variegated colors.
• If you replace ammonia with vapors of strong hydrochloric acid, then from purple and violet flowers you will receive bright red.
• In addition, there is another pleasant surprise: after treatment with ammonia, flowers that have never had a scent (such as asters) acquire a rather pleasant aroma.

You can repaint whole bouquets in this way.... By coloring the whole bouquet, you can get absolutely incredible set of colors in him. And when the bouquet begins to gradually return to its former colors, you will be lucky enough to see an equally beautiful and mesmerizing sight.

Experimenting in this way, you can get the most bizarre shades of flowers, which, it would seem, are no longer possible to surprise.

Corrugated paper is a very pliable, vibrant and inexpensive material. It seems that its possibilities are endless. From this material, beautiful flowers are obtained, which sometimes have an almost indistinguishable similarity to their living counterparts. Making them ...

Flowers made of candies and corrugated paper are an unusual DIY gift. It can be presented to anyone: a man or a woman, a friend, family and friends. If you use corrugated paper for decoration, the appearance of the present will meet the most ...

For plants cut for a bouquet, you can change the natural color of the flowers. So, if the white flowers of a rose or dahlia are dipped first into a fuchsin solution, and then into a potash solution, they will acquire a beautiful blue color. This method has long been used to obtain unusual blue roses that do not exist in nature.

At first glance, the process that ensures the creation of different colors in plants may seem very simple, but the numerous colors and tones that exist in nature are the result of a complex interaction of the main pigments in various combinations with the environment. They also depend on the order of placement of natural dyes in plant tissues.

For plants cut for a bouquet, you can change the natural color of the flowers. So, if the white flowers of a rose or dahlia are dipped first into a fuchsin solution, and then into a potash solution, they will acquire a beautiful blue color. This method has long been used to obtain unusual blue roses that do not exist in nature. You can try in the same way to repaint the white flowers of hyacinths, tulips or gladioli in blue, or try to "make" a rose (white) bloom with bright blue flowers by watering the soil around its bush with cobalt acid.

True, there is information that the famous German poet and botanist Goethe managed to get flowers with a bluish tint when growing roses in a greenhouse under blue glass. And only recently, in our time, the Japanese have grown real blue roses.

And how to make a white rose from a red rose? Knowing that anthocyanin is discolored with sulfur dioxide, we place a red rose in a hermetically sealed vessel (glass jar) with a piece of combustible sulfur lit in it - and in a few minutes the petals will turn white. Do not regret about the disappeared red color, after some (rather long) time in the air, the flower will return to its previous color. You can also "whiten" asters, violets, gladioli and other flowers containing anthocyanin.

You can repaint purple flowers in bright red by immersing them in a weak solution of hydrochloric acid.

Flowers with green petals are usually nondescript, but for the sake of experiment, you can get them pretty quickly. It is enough, for example, to hold the blue flower of the swamp forget-me-not over the smoke of a smoldering cigarette or cigarette, as it immediately turns green. The reason for this change is the alkaline ammonium carbonate contained in tobacco smoke. Penetrating into the tissue of the flower, it turns the blue color into green.

Interesting color transformations in flowering plants occur under the influence of ammonia. Treated with vapors of ammonia (in a sealed vessel!), Blue, purple and purple petals turn green, dark red (for example, a carnation) - black, white (white lily, white rose, etc.) - yellow. Flowers with a variegated color undergo especially original changes. If ammonia is replaced with vapors of strong hydrochloric acid, the blue and purple colors will turn into red. It is also curious that after treatment with ammonia, some flowers that have no aroma at all (for example, asters) acquire a pleasant smell.

Such experiments can even be carried out with whole bouquets of flowers. Since not all anthocyanins react in the same way to a change in the environment, and also because ammonia and hydrochloric acid also act on other substances (flavones, etc.), causing a color change, completely unexpected colors are obtained. In this simple way, you can give the bouquet a fancy unusual color for several hours. The subsequent slow restoration of the natural color of the flowers gives the bouquet an even more spectacular appearance.

Sulfurous acid, due to its deoxidizing properties, discolors most of the flowers, in the rose, for example, roses, periwinkles, violets, etc. This experiment works extremely well with a special device. Sulfur is melted in a small porcelain crucible (cup), which combines with atmospheric oxygen, ignites and gives sulfuric acid; for better action of the sulfurous vapors, the crucible is covered with a thin, conical copper tube, with the narrow end facing the test colors.

The action of the acid makes itself felt immediately; in a few seconds roses, periwinkle, violets, ivan-da-marya and others completely turn white.

Here's another experience:

Pouring ordinary ether into a glass and adding 1/10 part (by volume) of ammonia to it, load the test flowers into the resulting mixture. Some of the flowers, which in nature are purple or one-time coloration, take on an instant bright green color. These include: pinkish crane or geranium, purple periwinkle, purple nocturnal violet and yarutka, single and red roses, magon levkoy, thyme, little blue bell, smoke, forget-me-not and heliotrope. Other flowers, the color of which is not the same everywhere, take on more or less different shades from the action of a mixture of ammonia with ether.

The top purple petal of a sweet pea turns blue, while the bottom one takes on a pale green color. White flowers usually turn yellow. These are, for example: white poppy, striped gills, turning yellow and dark purple; white rose is painted in a fawn color, white watershed, black root, chamomile, fragrant mock orange, daisy, potatoes, night violet, honeysuckle, bean flowers, meadowsweet, foxglove, etc. All of them, when touched with ammonium ether, take on a dark yellow color. The white gills turn yellow and dark orange.

In a one-time sweet pea, the upper petal turns into blue, and the lower one turns into a green of a very delicate shade; one-time geraniums or cranes turn blue; in the lipstick, ammonia ether acts only on red spots, which turn into brown-green; the red gill takes on a lovely brown with a metallic sheen; valerian becomes grayish, and red poppy becomes dark purple.

Ammonia ether does not affect yellow flowers:

Buttercup, marigolds, yellowfilm, etc., when immersed in this liquid, retain their natural color.

Coloring flowers with food dyes

If you cannot find a cut flower for March 8 in the shade you need in the store, you can change the color of the plant yourself... To do this, you just need to stock up on some patience and certain materials.

Not all flowers are suitable for artificial coloring... For work, you should take only fresh flowers. The longer the flower stands, the worse it will stain. You should also pay attention to the color of the petals. It is impossible to achieve the desired result with red or darker flowers, so such plants should not be taken. White flowers are best suited, in extreme cases cream ones. From the whole variety of flowers, you can take roses, tulips, carnations and chrysanthemums for coloring flowers. You can also experiment with any other white colors.

Now let's tell you in more detail how to paint a flower. Food coloring should be used to color the flowers.... But here, too, not everything is so simple. You cannot use any food coloring, especially the one used to color the icing on the cakes. Use a dye that will dissolve completely in the water, coloring it. Dilute the dye in room temperature water. The more dye you dilute in water, the faster the flowers will color.

Use a sharp knife to cut the stems of the flowers... The cuts should be at a 45 ° angle and should be up to 2 cm long. If you are using roses, cut the stems in water. When you take the stem of the rose out of the water, press down on the cut with your finger so that it does not have contact with the air. Now put the prepared flowers in a vase of water in which the dye is diluted overnight. In the morning you will see some changes. It will take you 24 hours to complete the stain.

If desired several experiments with dyes can be done... So, for this, some techniques are used that make it possible to create various color effects. You can leave the flower in a container of the same color overnight. Then change the water and dye color in the morning. See how the flower petals will be intricately colored. You can also use the same color of the dye, but change its concentration in the water. Thus, you can get either a very bright flower, or delicate soft shades of petals.

Please note that you have not only the petals of the flower will be colored, but also its leaves and stem... It will take much longer to stain a woody stem like a rose. But the soft stems of tulips are colored very quickly. Also, do not forget that the staining is always uneven. The thick veins, along which the water passes, are colored first. Only then does the full color of the flower occur.

As you can see, dyeing fresh flowers is not a very difficult task. The main thing is stick to some rules:

• use only fresh flowers
• never pinch the stem while pruning
• paint flowers only at room temperature

If you use this simple method of coloring, you will definitely have the brightest and most unusual flowers on March 8th. Try it, you will definitely like these bouquets!

And here is the research work done by a 5th grade student:

Research Abstracts
"Flower magic"
Author: Lyakh Svetlana. 5th grade, MBOU "Zorkaltsevskaya secondary school" of the Tomsk region.
Head: Borisenko Nina Ivanovna, teacher of biology, MBOU "Zorkaltsevskaya secondary school", Tomsk region.

Tasks:

• study of the structure of the stem of plants
• dyeing white flowers in different colors

Research object: absorption of food coloring.
Research subject: tulip, rose, chrysanthemum, carnation
Research hypothesis: yellow tulip, white rose, white carnations, white chrysanthemums will be colored in the color of food dyes.
Research methods: experiment and observation.
The stem of the plant is the axial part of the shoot, consisting of nodes and internodes. The main role of the stem in the life of the plant is supporting (mechanical), because the stem contains leaves, buds, flowers, sporulation organs. On the stem, the leaves are arranged in an optimal order so as to carry out photosynthesis with maximum productivity. Also no less important is the function of the plant stem as an intermediary between leaves and roots, that is, conductive. The stem acts as a link between the root system, through which water with minerals enters the plant, and the leaves, where organic matter is synthesized. The conductive tissues of the stem, leaves and root constitute a single structure that ensures the movement of substances in the plant's body. Thus, the main functions of the stem are supporting and conducting. The stem of flowering plants has conductive vessels and sieve tubes through which water and mineral salts rise up into the flower. Roses and carnations have a dense stem, water and mineral salts reach the leaves and flowers much more slowly. And the tulip has a tubular stem with hollow sieve tubes, so the movement of water and minerals is faster.
Practical work
Artificial change in the color of flower petals.
Purpose: getting tulips, roses, carnations, chrysanthemums of different colors
I diluted food coloring and lowered the stems of flowers there, having previously made a cut of the stem. I half filled a tall glass with water. Poured 2 teaspoons of dye into a glass of water and stirred well. The water should be saturated. If the water is slightly colored, I will add more food coloring to get a darker color. Then I added 2 tablespoons of sugar and stirred to melt. Sugar will help the dye to quickly rise through the capillaries and the rose will begin to develop color faster.
She cut the stem of the rose with a knife at an angle, holding it under running water. This method of trimming the stems allows the capillaries to remain open and susceptible to food coloring. The prepared roses were immediately placed in colored water. Roses must stand in tinted water for at least three days for color shades to appear. The more the rose is in the colored water, the more colorful the petals will be.
Carnation petals turned orange and blue on the 4th day.
On the 2nd day the tulips turned green.
On the 5th day, the roses turned blue.
On the 6th day, the chrysanthemums turned pink.
Conclusion: tulip petals were colored faster, then carnations, then roses, and
chrysanthemums were the last to be colored. Experience has proven that the intake of food
dye with water depends on the structure of the stem.

Hair coloristics is based on a scientific basis - knowledge of color and chemical laws, the skill of a hairdresser-colorist.

Modern colors - a fashion for uniqueness and absolute individuality

Coloring is divided into several varieties, the main of which are considered:

• booking;
• highlighting;
• balayazh;
• ombre.

When blonding, the master carefully distributes various shades of light tones over the entire length of the hair of each strand. This look looks beautiful on light brown hair.

Bronzing on light brown straight hair. Results before and after staining

When performing hair highlighting, the hairdresser will bleach the selected strands... The number of light strands depends on the wishes of the client and can range from 10% to more than 50%.

Highlights on dark hair

Sometimes, for dyed strands, the shades obtained during dyeing are additionally neutralized, applying the color rules.

When carrying out the ombre technique, the master achieves a smooth transition from the very dark root zone to the very lightened ends of the hair.

Features of color by color types of appearance

To obtain the required tone, the paint is diluted with certain pigments:

1 pack of paint (60 ml) corrects the color with 4 grams of pigment. When you get an ugly or not the one that is desirable, the hair color experts do not recommend lightening them, you get a dirty unattractive color.

In this case, it is better to correct the staining with professional craftsmen who have rich experience and the necessary funds.

Why is it important to know the theory of color, about color combinations, how to apply it in coloristics

It's important to know! For hair coloring, mixing dyes and colors, it is important to select matching tones, to combine them in exact proportions. Professionals mix paints of similar tonality, meeting the rules of correct combination:

• copper tint with brown;
• eggplant with dark purple;
• caramel with golden blond.

It is not allowed to mix more than 3 different colors. The hairstyle will gain contrast if white strands are applied to dark hair.

Note! Correct mixing of paints and colors in coloristics can visually change the shape of the face, correct parts of the hairstyle with certain color shades.

Rules for mixing paints of different shades

Experienced professionals are familiar with the rules of the most complex technology for mixing various shades of paints, who are able to evaluate:

• hair - condition, structure;
• scalp - sensitive, dry, irritated.

Experts note 4 color types: cold - summer and winter, warm - autumn and spring.

it is undesirable to change the natural color type to the opposite.

For fair-haired women belonging to the "summer" color type, it is better to do dyeing with wheat, ash and platinum tones. Different brown tones are suitable for dark-haired women belonging to this color type.

Light hair of the spring color type is dyed with dyes that match the natural color, golden and honey tones. For dark hair of this color type, caramel and walnut are chosen.

Bright representatives of "autumn" are especially suited to saturated colors - red, golden, copper.

Experienced stylists determine the color range of hair dyes by the eyes.

Owners of gray-blue eyes are best suited for light hair tones.

Warm shades are offered to green-eyed women. If yellowish blotches are present in the iris of the eyes, orange and red paint is recommended. If the eyes are distinguished by a malachite shade, a chestnut, dark blond tone is in harmony.

Light tones look beautiful with blue eyes... Brownish blotches on the iris of blue-eyed ones suggest coloring with caramel or red shades. Bright blue eyes - brown tones work well. Blue-gray is best painted with light tones.

For dark brown eyes with dark skin- chestnut or chocolate tones. If with light skin with dark brown eyes, it should be painted with red shades. For light brown eyes, golden tones are recommended.

All tones are suitable for gray-eyed women., but it is better not to use too dark shades.

They mix hair dyes with colors of the palette similar in tone, accurate selection is carried out using the attached tables of color shades.

Do not mix paints from different companies.

Manufacturers have their own palette, different from others. The desired result is obtained with the correct calculation of the proportion and amount of paint.

Experts recommend unevenly dyed and gray hair - first dye it in a natural color, and then select and mix shades. On hair of different type and structure, the same shades look different, and time exposure affects the color saturation.

It is forbidden to dilute paint in metal dishes, suitable for glass, ceramics, plastic.

In what proportions to mix paints

A different amount of paint is used on hair of different lengths:

• short hair - 1 pack (60 ml);
• medium hair - 2 packs (120 ml);
• long hair - 3 packs (180 ml).

To obtain the shade indicated on the package, a 3% oxidizing agent is added when diluting the paint. When mixing hair dyes, take them in the same proportions or add a larger amount of dye, the color that you want to get.

For example, when mixing caramel and golden blonde, adding more golden blonde results in a richer golden hue.

Important to remember! The color palettes developed by the manufacturers are complex in tonality paints, containing different quantitative content of pigments: gray-green, blue, red and yellow.

The molecules of these dyes vary in size:

1. The smallest molecule belongs to the gray-green pigment, coloring the hair, it spreads in it first.
2. Next in size is blue, which will be the next to take place in the hair structure.
3. Red is larger than the first two, it still has a small opportunity to take place in dyed hair.
4. Most of all yellow pigment, it has no place at all in the inner part of the hair, it envelops its outer side. The shampoo washes away the yellow pigment quickly.

The composition of the dyes - what is important to know?

Uncolored natural hair contains 3 primary colors... Their different combination determines the natural hair color.

Three main natural colors: blue, red and yellow

In the color of hair, when mixing dyes and colors, the gamut of colors is distributed at levels from 1 to 10: starting with 1 - very black and ending with 10 - the lightest. In hair from 8-10 levels there is 1 yellow pigment, from 4-7 levels there are red and yellow colors, brown shades are obtained.

The highest levels 1-3 have blue pigment combined with red, yellow is completely absent.

Hair dyes of all manufacturers are designated by numbers, according to them, its tone is determined:

• the first - belonging to the degree of lordship;
• the second - to the main color (up to 75% of the paint composition);
• the third is the nuance of color.

Secondary colors

By mixing the bordering colors, they acquire secondary ones:

• orange - yellow and red;
• purple - red and blue;
• green - blue and yellow.

Each of the 3 primary colors has an opposite color (counter-color), contributing to the neutralization of various shades:

Each of the 3 primary colors has a counter-color

• red is extinguished green;
• blue - orange;
• yellow - purple.

Professionals calculate and remove unsuccessful shades according to this principle.

Tertiary colors

By connecting primary and secondary color boundaries, they acquire tertiary shades.

When coloring hair, mixing dyes and colors, beautiful shades are obtained, for example, by combining a beige shade with cold violet - exquisite platinum. A blonde with gray-green hair is corrected by adding a redhead, redness is neutralized with a tobacco shade.

Important to remember! On completely bleached hair, the desired shades are not obtained, they become lighter, for example, a purple tint on white hair turns into lilac. With an insignificant content of yellow pigment in the hair, it comes out:

1. The pink color takes on a reddish tint.
2. Lilac neutralizes yellowness and remains platinum.

Darker shades come out on natural undyed hair.

Harmonious colors

The harmony of nearby flowers is the presence of one primary color. Harmonious colors are taken from intervals of one main color to the next main color. They have 4 subspecies.

The harmony of these colors leads to balance, changing their lightness and saturation when coloring hair, mixing dyes and colors. When you add white or black colors to them, there is a harmony of combination with the selection of one saturated color.

Oswald's circle is the basis of color, which determines the laws of shade formation. Mixing dyes and colors to change hair color is carried out in accordance with his recommendations

Monochrome colors

With monochrome combination, there is a combination of colors of the same color gamut, with light and saturated shades. A similar calm combination is often used in hairdressing.

Achromatic colors

The achromatic combination of colors is essentially close to the monochromatic combination, in some sources it is not distinguished separately. It is based on two or more achromatic colors.

The classic combination of this harmonic series is considered to be a gradual transition from white to black. Hairstyles made in this style emphasize dignity and stability.

Achromatic color combination

Each manufacturer produces complex color shades using different proportions, which gives the product its own shade.

Some companies add neutralizing pigment, but not always. The difficulty of coloring with obtaining the desired effect is to carefully study the composition of the paints.

Ash shades

In hair dyeing in salons, especially with ombre, ash shades are popular.

Ash staining results may differ from expected. Therefore, a number of nuances should be taken into account. :

• ashy shade on bleached hair looks overly gray or dirty;
• it darkens the hair;
• in the presence of yellowness, creates a green tint;
• suits young girls, other women look older.

Ash shade is most suitable for young girls

Skillful hands of a professional will allow you to avoid side effects and get the desired result, taking into account the following features of ash paint:

• there is a lot of blue pigment in the ash shade;
• a feature of the paint is the presence of different shades from different manufacturers;
• ash shades of different companies differ in pigment density;
• this paint removes the orange tint when lightened.

Before you start coloring your hair, you should define a few points:

• correctly set the depth of the tone available in the hair;
• understand what hair color the client wants to get;
• decide on additional hair lightening;
• to understand whether after the procedures an unnecessary shade to be neutralized will turn out and determine the color.

It is important to correctly determine the level of depth of tone of the hair.

Hair coloring, mixing several dyes of different colors in a hairstyle contributes to the creation of a unique individual image. This type of coloring is suitable for hair of different lengths: from short creative haircuts to beautiful curls.

Experts insist on observing a sense of proportion so that there is no overflow of tasteless bright spots. Color theory, an invaluable practice that brings experience, helps the masters maintain balance.

Skilled hairdressers warn - one cannot rashly experiment without a clear knowledge of the laws of obtaining color combinations.

1. It is not recommended to use masks for a week before dyeing, since the special substances in their composition envelop the hair and can change the expected result of dyeing.
2. The head is not washed before staining: the skin on the head will not be affected by the oxidizer, due to the released fat.
3. Dye is applied to dry hair, wet ones dilute it, the color will lose its saturation.
4. For easy distribution of the dye, the hair is divided into strands and the dye is applied equally and quickly.

4. Keep the dye on your hair according to the instructions, then wash your hair.

Note! Diluted and mixed paints should not be stored. After 30 minutes, a reaction with air masses will occur and the paint will deteriorate. The multi-colored mixture must be used in one go.

Records determine:

• the color you like, no need to remember what shades were used when mixing;
• duration - how long the staining is not washed off;
• unsuitable shade - which colors should not be mixed.
