How can I save my coloring?

What colors fear the sun?

On the color side, blond tones and wicks , obtained by discoloration, are spared by the sun because they light up and illuminate on its contact. Some hairdressers are even trying to recreate this side "return beach" in the middle of winter! But the chlorine of the swimming pools, which tends to green the prettiest blond ... On the other hand, the brown and chestnut tones , obtained by coloring with the addition of pigments , tend to wash and "scorch" in the sun . The fault with the red dyes: particularly unstable, they saw easily.

How to protect my colorful hair from the sun?

The gestures to adopt for a color at the top all summer? Whether your hair is colored, wicked or discolored, they need protection AND repair. Coat them with oil or gel with UV filters before going to the beach and repeat the gesture after each bath. Rinse them with fresh water as soon as possible. If you're on a boat or spend the day at the beach , go for a fashionable hoodie or scarf that will protect them from wind and spray. Each evening, wash them with an after-sun shampoo rich in cleansing agents, and if they are dry, give them a mask every other day. Time saving tip: a restorative oil or monoi , shea butter is left overnight ...

And my pigmenting shampoo ? You can continue to use it during the holidays to maintain optimal shine , but alternately with a softer and more nourishing after-sun shampoo.
