Tips for caring for colored and dry hair
1. Assess the condition of your hair: Find out if your hair is colored and dry, colored and brittle, or colored and in good condition.
Choose the right care products according to the condition of your hair:
For those in good shape, a conditioner that provides color protection is enough. Broken and tangled hair needs texture repair and moisture, and dry hair needs moisture.
2. Protect your hair from the sun: Colored hair, especially dark and reddish shades, fades easily in the sun's heat. UV radiation not only fades hair color but also worsens hair dryness. In the summer, use sun protection products or products intended for colored hair.
4. Use tinting conditioners in summer: Tinting conditioners restore shine and depth to colored hair. Use leave-in conditioners with hair masks to improve moisture retention and overall hair health.
5. Enhance the effect of hair masks: If the summer heat has dried out your hair, use hair masks as a quick treatment. Apply the hair mask and rinse off after a minute instead of leaving it on for 5-10 minutes.
For a deep moisturizing treatment, apply the hair mask before the sauna and leave it on for 5-10 minutes, covering it with a damp towel or hair turban.
6.Protect hair from heat damage: To reduce damage, avoid using straighteners and curling irons. Always use heat protection spray before using heating equipment. Let your hair dry naturally, or use a blow dryer on low heat to reduce stress on your hair.
Who are toning conditioners and foams suitable for?
- For undyed hair: Deepens the base color or adds warmth.
- For brown hair: Maintains the depth of brown hair until the next dyeing session.
- For red hair: Keep the intensity of the red tone until the next dyeing session.
- For blonde hair: Refracts heat, maintains the glow of blonde hair, or creates new shades.
- For gray hair: Emphasize silver grayness or fade graying.
Tips for choosing a product:
1. Choose a shade of conditioner. The most crucial feature of tinting conditioners is to restore the underlying tinted color to the hair or to give the hair the desired nuance and shine. Choose a shade that matches the base color of your hair.
2. Pay attention to your hair color. Is it natural or dyed? If you want to keep your hair's natural tone, choose a tinting conditioner that is as close as possible to your hair color. This will give your hair more shine and softness.
When the hair is colored, choose a conditioner or foam that emphasizes the nuances at the base - brown, red, copper, or gray.
3. Also, pay attention to your hair's condition. Consider using a moisturizing hair mask and a tinting product if your hair is dehydrated. When you need more moisture, choose a hair mask to which you add drops of direct color. This way, you get a more effective treatment and still get the toning. Apply the face mixture with the direct color with a brush or palms. Or, use the direct color solution directly on the hair and wash it with a power mask.
4. Purpose and need:
- Tinting conditioner can help in many situations:
- Direct color, on the other hand, immediately gives the desired result, and its tone lasts about 6-8 washes in the hair. It is a gentle coloring method that does not permanently change the undertone of the hair but washes off gradually.
5. Tinting products are an easy and gentle way to add color pigment to the hair without color treatment.
Tinting conditioners are used like ordinary conditioners, while direct color solutions offer fast color pigment without permanence.
