Experiments at home with appearance are like Russian roulette: you never guess what will turn out in the end. At the very least, you may not like the result of the manipulations, at the maximum there is a risk of harming your health. Together with, we have compiled a list of popular beauty procedures, for which you should only contact the masters.

1. Complex staining

If you have tinted the roots once or twice or have successfully toned the length, you should not immediately tackle the ombre or balayage. For such stains, colorists mix different pigments and oxidants in the right proportions, apply and wash off the paint in several stages. Some techniques, such as shatush, assume that certain areas are first combed and then painted. And often the master has to discolor the strands along the entire length, so that in the end their tone perfectly matches the shade of the roots - and here there is a risk of irrevocably ruining the hair. In general, complex staining is not called that for nothing.

2. Eyelash extension

Not every experienced master dares to build up eyelashes for himself. No matter how simple the procedure looks in the video tutorials, in fact it is very difficult and even dangerous. One wrong move - and now the glue stings painfully in the eyes.

During the work, the master isolates the client's lower eyelashes with patches so that the native and extended hairs do not stick together. Sometimes patches are marked up to create the desired effect, such as a fox or puppet look. It is unlikely that you will be able to repeat this on your own, but there is a risk of losing your own eyelashes without gluing additional ones.

3. Piercing

Piercing is actually a mini-surgery. In order for the channel for the earring to heal well, it is necessary to pierce the skin under sterile conditions. In addition, without understanding the anatomy, there is a risk of touching nerve endings or a large vessel. We will not list what unsuccessful punctures of the navel, lip or tongue threaten - and we do not advise you to google. Even a scar left by a hand that trembled at the last moment is unlikely to add joy.

It is easy to find a qualified beauty specialist on Avito Services. Go to the section "", select the desired category and meet the masters in your city. The Avito catalog contains a variety of offers: all types of manicure and pedicure, makeup, hairstyles, massage, cosmetology, hair removal and much more. On Avito Services, you will also find craftsmen who are ready to come to your home - often their services are cheaper than in the salon, and it is always nice to save time on the road.

4. Permanent makeup

For a permanent you need special equipment, a well-stocked hand and high-quality paints, so that the makeup in a year does not "creep" into those parts of the face where it should not be. If something suddenly does not go according to plan, the pigment absorbed into the skin cannot be erased, like an unsuccessful arrow or a floating contour pencil; and without knowledge of coloristics and combinations of specific pigments, you can dye your eyebrows in dark green instead of noble wheat. In addition, if the needle is incorrectly inserted, the wounds can become scars that only a laser can remove.

5. Shugaring

For those who are not in the know, sugaring is a popular hair removal method. Melted sugar paste is applied to the skin, and then unwanted vegetation is literally ripped out with strips for depilation. In addition to the fact that tools and materials for shugaring are not cheap, mistakes in the process can turn into serious troubles. Often, the mixture prepared at home does not capture all the hairs, so it has to be applied several times - this greatly injures the skin. And not everyone has enough self-control to pull properly the first time. If the paste is overheated, burns will remain. Also, the problem of ingrown hair will catch up in a couple of weeks.

6. Peeling and beauty injections

Many beauty salon treatments can be replaced with homemade ones. But not a deep peeling. You may not notice redness on your face - the first sign of an allergy. And without proper preparation, delicate skin risks getting burned or unwanted pigmentation. At home, it is better to use light cosmetics, such as exfoliating masks and rolls.

Beauty injections should also be entrusted to a specialist. In addition, only a cosmetologist can assess whether your skin really needs such traumatic manipulations.

7. Anti-cellulite massage

An effective sculptural massage is done with clear and confident movements and only along certain lines - and often problem areas are outside your own reach (we do not take yogis into account). Asking loved ones to have a massage is also not the best way to save money on the procedure: inept influence can damage the skin and blood vessels. The risk of getting unpleasant sensations instead of the desired effect in this case is extremely high.

You can sign up not only to a private master. On the interactive map, turn on the "Companies" filter and choose a studio or beauty parlor in the desired area. Before signing up, read the reviews and study the certificates of the salon specialists - so you will be sure of the quality of their work.
