5 Tips for Shinier & Healthier Hair

A striking hair color is what most women desire. Most of us love an exotic bronze or a light blonde, however these are two dye shades that show the most "volatility" and are "demanding". 

In order to maximise the duration of the colouring and until you visit your hairdresser again, you should only use professional hair care products that are specifically designed for coloured hair and blonde hair. 

If you do not take care of nourishing and moisturizing your hair with the right products, then the color will quickly fade. In this article we will see how you can avoid some mistakes that are made every day and give more duration and shine to your hair color!

Many women wash their hair the day after dyeing. This is one of the most common mistakes we see. Especially in shades that have been reflowered or in the less stable colors such as red or copper, we recommend washing your hair after two days. 

The reason is that you need to let the product used by the hairdresser "lock", to act on the hair.

We all want to make smart purchases and at the best possible price. With the health of our hair, however, we should not have the price as the sole criterion. We will have to choose the appropriate professional product that is designed specifically for the needs of our hair. 

Here it is important to emphasize that it is not only a matter of price: you may be provided with a professional mask but it may not be suitable for your coloured hair.

For those who follow our blog is a tip that we have stressed its importance many times. Many enjoy the moments that a relaxing hot bath gives especially in winter. However, hot water has harmful effects on the shine and also the health of your scalp. 

It is known that shampooing with hot water sensitizes the hair, causes dryness and does not help to keep colored hair shiny. It will also make the color fade faster and dull it. Prefer lukewarm or even cold water when washing your hair. You will protect the color and the health of your hair in general. It is worth this small sacrifice in order to keep your colored hair vibrant and shiny until your next visit to the salon.

Also for those that follow the blog It is well known to us that frequent shampooing is not something we recommend. If you wash your hair more often than you should, then the hair loses pigments faster. If you do not use a professional shampoo special for dyed hair, then this happens even faster! Colour treated hair should be cleaned with a shampoo with a mild effect to preserve the color as long as possible. 

Alternatively you can stock up with a cleansing conditioner. These products have a texture and consistency that does not foam so much but effectively cleans the hair. There are also very good dry shampoos to "gain" at least one day and it is a very good solution especially for hair that does not show intense greasiness. Find HERE the most beloved cleansing conditioners & dry shampoos for every hair type.

This tip It has more application in the summer months when we all enjoy sunbathing and the sea and we do not have in mind the harmful effects of solar radiation on our hair. 

Hair, especially colored hair, needs proper care and protection from the sun. Find them HERE professional sun care and protection products at lovehair.gr. If you spend a lot of your time on the road or outdoors in general during the summer months, then a good sunscreen for hair is a must have and not a nice to have!
