Coloring tirelessly moves along fashion paths, attracting everyone larger number women. One of its bright and extravagant options is stencil hair coloring, or futuage. The tendency to amaze others with bold experiments with curls remains in demand, so this technique, which allows you to decorate your hair with unique tattoos, has already appeared on the head of more than one fan of the extraordinary!
A little about technology
When screen painting, a technology for selecting dyes is used, similar to classical coloring. The only difference is that the paint is applied using a stencil (silicone or plastic plate), and thus the fantasies of the woman herself or the master working on her curls are recreated on the hair.
Stencils for such coloring are attached to the hair, fixing a separate strand, after which they are dyed. Thanks to the technique, it is possible to form horizontal and vertical textures, and the designs can be not only natural shades, but also daringly hot! 
Screen hair coloring is usually performed natural dyes. If it is necessary to create a bright shade, the master mixes natural tones. Why is this so important? It’s simple: a client who is dissatisfied with the result can easily repaint his hair, and those who like to change their look frequently can get rid of the pattern after 1 month. Should you prepare for failure in advance? Based on the fact that there are no wigs that would allow you to try on screen coloring, you will have to experiment blindly. The main thing is to find a good colorist.
After choosing a successful design, a woman can decide on a longer friendship with screen painting. In this case, the master can perform coloring with permanent dyes. 
Today, futuage is an excellent idea for creating an original look for a party or wedding. Using spray dyes, which are applied similarly to hairspray and are not fixed to the curls, you can perform a one-day futuage (the result will last until the first wash of your hair).
What to consider?
The main thing is the condition of the hair: the design can fit perfectly and subsequently look playful only on healthy hair. Straight and mirror-smooth - this is exactly how your hair should be. If there are problems (fragility, splitting), it is better to refrain from using a fashionable novelty, otherwise the effect will be lost.
TO curly hair, as well as too rare, screen painting is not used.
The length of the hair for stencil dyeing is not framed: even with an ultra-short haircut, you can create an exquisite design. But still, unlike luxurious long curls, which are seen as a real canvas for a colorist, short ones are limited in the choice of pictures.
But there are no color restrictions for futuage: the designs will look equally impressive on light and dark curls, and will decorate non-standard strands (raspberry, blue, green).
Select a pattern
Today you can find the most elaborate options for creating futurage, but lines and circles are considered the most popular. With a non-standard hairstyle, such designs will look more vibrant and extravagant.
An interesting option is animalistic images that imitate animal skin. In addition, you can choose original abstract patterns or stick to geometry.
If your imagination is on vacation, a master will help you choose a design: in the salon you will be offered to familiarize yourself with the catalog for screen coloring. 
Who to entrust the work to?
How many of us can put a drawing on a landscape sheet while closing our eyes? It’s the same with screen dyeing: a high-quality result depends on adherence to technology and requires precision in the application of dyes and a creative approach. In other words, it is advisable to entrust the procedure to an experienced colorist or, in extreme cases, to a friend who feels able to design her hair in a non-standard manner. The main thing is to be able to divide your hair into zones.
Usually, when screen painting, several stencils are used. The paint can be applied by brush or sprayed. The second option for home coloring is more suitable, as it is less complicated and faster.
In general, you can do subtle stencil hair coloring yourself: even if the pattern on the curls is not bright and less daring, it will be comfortable to wear even to the office!

The strands on your head can be divided into several sections, secured, and then one by one, grab voluminous sections and apply the mixture. Block dyeing technology is ideal for long and medium hair. On short hairstyles The pigment should be applied to the top and bottom layers of curls. The combination of different shades will help highlight festive look and your creative nature. To make the paint last longer and wash off more evenly, we recommend using stable pigments. When applying paint, we recommend starting from the crown and ending near the temples with bangs. To screen-color strands, you must first create a template on a silicone, plastic sheet or foil, which will then be used to organize a pattern (ornament or unusual pattern) on the head. If you want the pigment to not last long, then choose spray paint. For a long-lasting effect, tinted or chemical (tinted or semi-permanent) dyes are suitable, but for permanent coloring, choose a permanent dye. When everything is prepared, you can start creating a creative drawing. On clean hair, we determine the place (up to 6 cm wide and strands up to 1.5 cm thick) where the pattern will be located: separate a curl, slip a piece of foil under it, secure it with hairpins (clips), and place it on top of the hair ready stencil and secure with clamps. We put on gloves, dilute the pigment (according to the instructions on the package) in a plastic container (ceramic) and apply paint from top to bottom with a brush onto the template. When the time has expired (according to the instructions), remove the stencil with foil and wash your hair with balm to strengthen the hair and fix the pigment. It is difficult to apply this method on long and wavy hair, so most often screen coloring of strands used for short and unusual haircuts to create a creative, voluminous and stylish hairstyle with a pattern.
