Platinum, natural, highlights or coloring… Whatever our type of blond, there are reflexes to adopt to keep it as beautiful as possible and maintain healthy hair.
Fear of blonde hair? May the color change to straw yellow or orange. Fortunately, there is an easy way to avoid this:use repigmenting, blue or purple treatments (shampoo or mask). How it works ? The products deposit blue or purple pigments on the fiber, the opposite of yellow in colorimetry. As a result, visually, the hair appears less yellow. Just use a yellowing treatment once a week and you're done (no more, you risk having blue reflections...)!
Bleached hair is weakened so it is important to nourish it well to avoid strawiness and brittleness. The treatment is systematized with each shampoo (conditioner, mask or leave-in treatment). We opt for nourishing formulas but we do not hesitate to alternate with moisturizing formulas, because as for the skin, dry hair needs both.
It's a little known trick but super easy to put in place:before going to the swimming pool (=hair in chlorinated water), we wet the hair. Why ? This prevents the hair fiber from absorbing too much chlorine (which tends to turn blond hair green, even natural).
UV rays dry out the hair fiber and cause color to bleed. We therefore get into the habit of using anti-UV hair care on a daily basis, whether we are by the sea or on the terrace at lunchtime. It's vital in the summer, but you can keep the reflex as long as you're exposed to the sun.
Used too often, heating devices are the enemy of hair, whatever its color. But it is obviously worse if, at the base, the hair is weakened by the lack of care and / or coloring and discoloration. We therefore get into the habit of protecting the fiber with a thermo-active treatment as soon as we use a curling iron or a straightener and we use the hair dryer as little as possible.
Discoloration greatly weakens the fiber (this is one of the most weakening hair changes, along with Japanese straightening). So it's not bad to take breaks between two discolorations (every ten weeks instead of every six, it's doable!). Bonus:it also saves money!
