Many women are in favor of experimenting with their hair. For this reason, they turn to paints and tonics. If you look closely, then all these changes in appearance are accompanied by harm to the hair. Ammonia compounds can spoil the structure, and even poison the female body with harmful elements.
All dyes last for a very long time, and therefore experiments may stop there. An excellent alternative to ammonia are tinted shampoos, various tonics or balms.
As part of our article, we will talk about how to choose the best hair tonic in 2020. For these purposes, we analyzed the opinions of users on the Web and compiled the current TOP of the best tools.
About tonics
Before proceeding to the analysis of the question of which hair tonic is better to choose, it is recommended that you familiarize yourself with what this remedy is and for what purposes it should be used.
In fact, the tonic can help women try themselves in a new way. The variety of colors is amazing. New shading solutions are constantly appearing. Tonics are able to give a special color to hair. With their help, you can completely transform into a different color or remove yellowness in a blonde.
The goal is fundamental when choosing how to use the product. If the tonic is left on the hair longer, the color will become bright, saturated. It is possible to add the product to the mask or balm. Just a couple of drops will be enough to give the curls a light shade. Wash off the product after a couple of minutes.
As the experience of customers shows, some of them dilute a small amount of tonic in water, then rinse their head with a solution after washing. In general, there are many options for using the tool. This is a purely individual thing and choosing the right method of use will allow you to understand how successful the resulting staining result is.
Manufacturer list
The domestic choice of tinting agents is amazing. But more often than not, buyers give preference to several brands that they have already encountered and are confident in a positive result. Some tonics are professional, but there are also those that are commonly referred to as mass market.
Faced with the task of choosing which hair tonic is better, it is recommended to study the list of manufacturers that are really in demand by customers on the market.
Hair cosmetics are very popular today. For this reason, there are a number of brands that are producing decent products. We analyzed the information on the Web, summing it up in the form of the TOP of the best manufacturers.
Schwarzkopf
A popular company that produces quality hair cosmetics. It differs in that it offers products at an acceptable cost. The best hair tonic with a mousse formula, which is famous for its effectiveness and color retention for a long time, is in demand.
Kapous
The brand is considered one of the most respectable in size in the Russian Federation. Hair cosmetics are produced using new technologies.As a result, it is possible to achieve high quality goods and affordability. It is not surprising that this combination is appreciated by our women.
Rocolor
The manufacturer Rokolor has been known in the domestic cosmetics market for a really long time. The stake is made on the use of new technologies and excellent quality products. It is also important that the manufacturer takes into account such an indicator as market demand. The cosmetics are of high quality and safe. It defines not only domestic products, but also went to the world level.
The assortment of Rocolor is large, it suits many girls who are not afraid of experimenting with images, and also strive to properly care for their hair.
Lakme
Manufacturer of professional cosmetics for curls from Spain. For the price, this option is not always appropriate for everyone, but the products are in great demand among stylists in different countries. Lakme cosmetics are created on natural ingredients, they are of high quality and smell good. All this makes the manufacturer one of the most admired cosmetic products in the 2020 market.
In fact, when choosing a tonic, it is very important to find quality products and your own manufacturer. Tint shampoos should not be certified in our country, but dishonest companies use this fact for their own selfish purpose, adding heavy metal salts to the formulations. Such components remain in the hair structure for the rest of their life. Choosing a remedy from an unverified firm, you expose yourself to certain risks. For this reason, it is best to deal.
This applies not only to tonics produced in the Russian Federation, but also to foreign versions, which are often filled with synthetic components. But in Europe, hair coloring products undergo a series of certification procedures. For this reason, they rarely contain harmful substances.
When choosing, you do not need to look only at the name. In fact, even if it is called in Russian letters and seems domestic, after reading the information on the packaging, one may be surprised, because the production is located in Poland. A similar situation may arise in the case of a foreign name that turns out to be domestic.
As a general advice, it is worth noting that if you do not know which brand to give preference to, it is recommended to read the composition. The fewer components it contains, the better for the hair. And keep in mind that even tonics have contraindications, and therefore it is better to consult with a hairdressing specialist before using.
