Picking excellent products for bleached hair at an affordable rate.
For a lot of us, personality and mood are intrinsically tied to our hair. And with the new year and new stress and new elements in our lives, a change sounds enticing. What better than a design colour or platinum mane?
Bleaching your hair doesn't have to drain your bank account. We're ditching the salon price tags and embracing the affordable life. Think of this as your ultimate guide to keeping your bleached locks looking like a million bucks without spending a dime.
Generally, with already bleached and compromised hair, going sulphate-free is the best option. Choose shampoos that cater to drier hair. Curly hair shampoos can be a great option too. Some brands to look for are Shea Moisture, Carol’s Daughter, and Eva NYC! And remember these two things: cold water is your bestie, and washing hair once or twice a week is absolutely fine.
Your hair has been through a battle with all the stripping and coloring. It needs to be babied, and delicately brought back to life with masks and treatments. You can also ditch the conditioner and put hair masks for some extra hydration. We swear by Cer-100, and if you want to tackle brassiness, the Verb purple mask is amazing! You can also look at other affordable options linked below!
A lot of people suggest using hair oil, but you have to be careful which one you choose. Coconut oil is a no-no. It is very penetrative and will make your colour fade faster. Go with medium-penetrative oils, like olive oil and castor oil. But best among all is jojoba oil, since it’s closest to our natural lipids. You can also fancy it up with argan oil. Some repairing oils at stores also work like charms!
Seriously, ditch those cotton pillowcases. They are not doing your hair any good. Instead, opt for satin or silk pillowcases, or even bonnets, to protect your hair while you sleep.
As a closing note, we must warn you not to be reckless with the products you try. Know what your hair needs, and pick your soldiers accordingly. Happy flaunting!
