Taking care of blonde hair after highlights is crucial for maintaining its vibrancy, avoiding brassiness, and keeping it healthy. Here are some tips to share with your clients for optimal post-highlight care:
Hydrate with Deep Conditioning Treatments
– Blonde hair tends to be more porous and can dry out quickly. A deep conditioning treatment once a week or a leave-in conditioner will help keep the hair soft and hydrated.
Avoid Excessive Heat
– Advise using heat protectant spray if they style with hot tools. Minimizing heat styling will also help maintain the health and color of the highlights.
Limit Sun Exposure
– Direct sunlight can fade blonde highlights and cause dryness. Suggest wearing hats or using hair products with UV protection when outdoors for extended periods.
Wash Less Frequently
– Washing hair too often can strip natural oils and cause highlights to fade. Washing every 2-3 days can help preserve both moisture and color.
Choose Color-Safe Products
– Recommend sulfate-free and color-safe shampoos and conditioners. These products are gentler on color-treated hair and help maintain the blonde vibrancy.
