What is the shade?
Think of your morning coffee from a friendly barista. Thanks to the combination of fatty milk foam and grains, a delicate light reddish or pastel brown is obtained. The hair will have about the same overflow when it goes into the corresponding subtone.
Using this method, women with an initial tone of 6 to 10 can transform their appearance: on darker braids, all the charms will not be visible, but very light ones can be darkened.
Representatives of any color type should pay attention to this coffee luxury from colorists: thanks to the harmonious distribution of pigments, the color cream composition combines warmth and cold, shine and matte. It will be especially attractive to combine with tanned skin and light hair.
Advice!Decide on the choice by purchasing special hairdressing strands for tone selection. By attaching them to your face, you can see if potential changes are good for you or not.
Mass market paints
In whose palettes can you find the desired nuance?

- Syoss Gloss Sensational, 5–1, Cold cappuccino. Dark blond color with an even distribution of red and blue pigments, including "coffee" ones. After all, you must definitely use a mask - Syoss is very dry.
Important! Keep the conditioners included in the kit - they are very high quality and are suitable for freshly dyed strands.
Professional dyes
Unlike conventional kits, profs allow you to achieve the desired effect without dryness and brittleness.
- Kapous Professional, 6–8, dark intense brown blonde. In Russian translation, it is declared as cappuccino. Differs in strong shine, luxurious background, marker "8" indicates the presence of red pigment.

Attention! Do not use creams and oxygenates from different companies - they must be from the same group, otherwise the result may be unpredictable.
Salon procedure
Definitely, preference should be given to the work of qualified colorists - it is very difficult to independently obtain the desired, even color without appropriate training. In a hairdressing salon, the client will first decide on the desired tone - say, choose between the seventh and eighth. If preliminary bleaching is required, the master will take bleaching powder and oxygen before direct manipulation. Changes take place according to all the rules: not only the main ingredient is mixed in the dishes, but also the necessary correctors and even plexuses - special protective complexes designed to preserve the original structure without damage.
At the end, the curls are intensively washed with running water, a regenerating mask is applied to them, which is also washed off. If you wish, you can make shielding if you are a fan of the Estel brand.
Home painting
There are a lot of tutorials on this topic, and not all materials talk about pitfalls.
- With preliminary discoloration, the curls must be washed with deep cleaning shampoo. Do not use folk remedies such as baking soda - aggressive lye will kill the cuticle. Good SHGOs are produced by Estelle and Kapus.
- It is better to distribute the foam not with an iron comb, but with a tangle teaser - it perfectly unravels the skeins.
- To get into the desired color scheme, buy the corresponding correctors for the paint you have chosen.
Important! And don't forget to do an allergy test by dripping it onto your elbow, knee, or wrist.
Highlighting
Highlighting crisp strands is a trend of the 1990s, which is still incredibly relevant today. With the help of competent highlighting, you can make your hairstyle more "voluminous", saturated in terms of colors.
To make you happy with the result, you should trust the professionals. In the most advanced places, craftsmen use special hats with many holes through which the desired curls are pulled - this way you can protect the client from tangling with curls and uneven distribution of dyes, and at the same time protect the roots.
To give uniform transitions, while with pronounced boundaries, use a foil or film intended for this. Some pros work with glossy cardboard.
Advice! Care products will help to preserve the effectiveness of the new image - the most effective are the components of the K-pack from the American concern Joyco.
Coloring
Unlike the previous method, coloring is more modern and attractive. Smooth transitions and combinations can radically transform your appearance. At the same time, coloring can be done both in the classic full-dye technique from the roots, and in the creative dip-dye.
You will need foil, a clarifier, a set with the desired shade, several complementary tones, a repair balm, a drape, a brush with a bowl, a towel, a hair dryer, and a double mirror.
- The upper layers of the hairstyle are pinned, a foil is fixed under the lower layer, on which the selected strands are painted with a lightening emulsion, and the others - with dyes.
- The rest are processed according to this principle.
- The duration of the composition is 45 minutes, after which the head is washed with shampoo and softened with conditioner.
- In this case, be sure to use a mirror so that you have a view both from the front and from the back.
Advice! You can buy a ready-made Loreal set for coloring the corresponding ebb, or then tint after it.
Balayazh and shatush
The most popular, along with ombre and sombre, are balayage and shatush techniques. What is their difference? Shatush in its essence is a soft ombre, very smooth, gradual pearls, close to natural, while the entire length is colored.
Balayazh has a fundamental difference - separate large strands of different lengths are colored, due to which the shock seems to be sparkling and iridescent under the sun's rays at any time of the day. The blur-shatush technique is gaining popularity, when not one shade is used, but two, for example, cappuccino level 8 and light ash blonde 9th.
Advice! Give preference to the most natural effects - this is the current trend now.
Contrast ombre with coffee nuance
Want to look as awesome as Kim Kardashian, Katy Perry or Jessica Biel? Then your choice is cappuccino ombre with a contrasting transition from dark coffee colors to light delicate "foam" - everything we love.
- Powder "Supra", mixed with water and an oxidizing agent in the required proportion, lightens the lower third of the curls. The bleaching mixture is evenly distributed over the second third with the help of a comb. After 50 minutes, shampoo the mane to stop the aggressive mixture.
- Any color cream of the declared type is taken, preferably from the luxury segment. It is distributed along the entire length, wait 30–45 minutes (depending on the initial data and the desired result), wash off with plenty of water, apply a balm and a plex mask.
- The mane is gently squeezed out of the water, dried with a towel and hairdryer. A small amount of balm or oil, such as GlissKur, is evenly applied over the entire surface.
- Voila - now you are not inferior to Hollywood stars in your charm!
Attention! If you are not confident in your abilities, then it is better to choose a suitable master in the salon.
Correction of unwanted ebb
Have you ever had a problem with yellowness, reddishness or redness when staining? Or maybe even green strands appeared? This embarrassment has a completely logical explanation. By making changes in appearance, we remove the natural pigment - a combination of eu-melanins (blue and red) and pheo-melanins (red and yellow) - and create a so-called background. When switching to chestnut, it will be ruby or orange, and in our case it will be light reddish. If you follow all the rules of color, the redhead should not appear, but what if the toning turned out to be uneven in scale? Professional proofreaders will come to the rescue. They are produced by Kapus, Estelle, Vella, Igora and others. The task of the cream is to remove unwanted pigment and emphasize the main one.
Varieties:
- Ash (ashy) - removes yellowness and reddishness;
- Red (red) - neutralizes greens;
- Blue (blue or light blue) - also fights yellow spots;
- Green (green) - the most difficult corrector, removes redness, but with an overdose there is a risk of darkening.
Advice!A miracle cure is added according to the "rule of 10": 1 cm at level 10, 2 cm at 9, and so on. But do not overdo it, otherwise you can darken.
How to keep the color bright?
