color. And the point is not the neatness of the woman. Hair is different from
person to person, the structure of hair can be thin or thick depending on
genes. The structure of women’s hair is worsened for the last fifty years, as
specialists state. Yet, the innovative approaches used to dye hair and improve
the structure, are more attractive. One of these approaches is hair
highlighting with Elumen means.
History of the product
Hair dying as the hairdresser’s procedure was widely
introduced to public in the end of 19th century making a lock of grey hair in
the hairdo, so much popular that time. When a brunette found it too hard to
have a lock of hair of silver shade, she used to apply some powder of the
corresponding color to tone hair which clogged pores and made hair dirty. In
the 30s of the 20th century the trend for a platinum blonde was stably exploited
and women rushed to use hydrogen peroxide as the substance to have the desired
color hair, which caused too much harm to hair. Three hair care products were
introduced in 50s of the 20th century which was the hard time to care after
hair. Anyway, the products were available to have hair dyed at home achieving
all-possible shades. In the 21st century the technologies improved and the
progress in the hairdressing industry was prominent, either. The hair care
products with dying agents were invented to allow hair safe and not damaged
when changing the color drastically. Hair highlighting with Elumen is the first
procedure which dyes and nourishes the hair structure at the same time.
What is hair highlighting?
Hair highlighting with Elumen is the persistent dying with
the special dying agent called Elumen. The Japanese concern invented the
patented formula in 1997 by the order of GOLDWELL Company. The innovative
approach the Elumen provided is that it was designed specially for the European
type and structure of hair.
The active substance of this preparation is the following
when due to the acid environment the microscopic negative molecules are
attracted as the physics law states to positive molecules. This allows the
possibility to absorb the dye pigments into the hair structure without damaging
it and not opening the shell of it. As a result, the surface is covered with
the ion film smoothing all the сглаживая rough edges. This dying agent is
unique since it does not damage the hair structure as other dyes do kicking out
the natural pigment ad leaving huge holes on the hair surface. The Elumen
pigment penetrates the hair deeply inside, nourishing and strengthening it,
instead. In view of that, the professional remedies used in beauty salons
proved the name and purpose. Hair dying with Elumen is the best dying procedure
when hair toning is the activity of other dying agents, including those based
on ammonium.
The hair dying procedure takes one to one and a half hours
in the beauty salon. Hair is defatted before applying dying agent. Then the
special preparation is applied that evens the color of hair and after that the
special dye is done to hair for thirty minutes. After the hair is washed with
special fixing hair conditioner with the stabilizer to keep the color and balm
to make hair smoother and softer. All the hair care products should be

of colors and shades which allow using fancy accents to have special hair
color. An additionally the volume is added to hair. The active component of the
product is the dying agent of the new generation without the hydrogen peroxide.

drawbacks include the necessity to use the special shampoo and hair conditioner
with Elumen effect (effect is not stable if not used). ladies with thick and
greasy hair are recommended to avoid using this procedure since dying is done
