Take care of colored hair in the summer

Sunbathing and chlorinated water do not mix with the chemicals used during staining.Weakened, your hair may lose its luster, even to turn green. Hence the need to adopt new habits-care.

At swimming

UV dehydrate the hair shaft and "break" the artificial color molecules, altering the brightness of colored hair and distorting the hues . May become the straw blond, brown and dusty brown to make reflections carrot.

To protect your hair color, only one solution: apply before each swim and sun exposure aprotective care about your hair.

Presented as a spray, gel or oil, these products have multiple properties: they contain filters UVA and UVB rays, they waterproof the hair to isolate chlorine and salt and regenerate due to their complex vitamin. 

This does not exempt you, after each swimming, rinse your hair thoroughly to get rid of all harmful substances.

At the time of the shampoo

When you bathe, the water droplets expand and raise the hair scales that allow the molecules then escape color.

As long as the water is salty or chlorinated, the phenomenon is growing and shades lose their luster. 

To limit this phenomenon, replace your shampoo classic, too aggressive, with a suitable shampoo for colored hair . Its formula will preserve the pigments, while strengthening the scales with a relatively acidic chemical composition.

Also take the time to make a conditioner . Thus, a thin protective film on your lengths persists after flushing.

Before you redo your color

Wait at least two weeks after you return from vacation before going to the hairdresser. Your hair has been weakened and coloring that can spoil more, besides the result may be disappointing.

Better to take the time to treat them and provide them with fats and hydration they lack in making masks.

They will then be more silky and the color pigments will fix it better.

Deeply hydrate

Warm the almond oil 3 minutes in a water bath or 20 seconds in microwave .

Put a few drops in the palm of your hand and apply them to length.

Then wrap your hair in the transparent film and keep the mask all night. 

Rinsing with warm water next morning will be easy because this oil is low in fat. And if your hair is really thirsty, they absorb completely.
