Most blonde haircolor services are going to call for some type of lightening to the hair, which means you'll need to give added attention to preserving the health of you hair. When lightening hair, it's important to keep the following in mind:
Your colorist can take steps to preserve the integrity of your hair through your whole service and the lightening step is no exception. Ask you colorist to include a bond protector like Redken's pH-Bonder.
It's a little known fact that bonds in the hair are fragile and most susceptible to breakage and damage the first two weeks after lightening, bleaching, or any color application. Redken's Color Extend Bonder is there to help protect color-treated hair during the critical first two weeks after a color or blonding service.
Haircare for blonde and lightened hair doesn't stop after week 2. A couple of times per week, use a purple shampoo like Redken Blondage for a toning and strengthening system that will help keep your blonde brighter and healthier. You can also incorporate a vinegar rinse into your haircare routine. Color Extend Vinegar Rinse will rebalance your hair's pH while gently clarifying for enhanced smoothness and shine.
