Protecting your hair color

Hi my lovelies!!

             Hope you are doing fine. In my last post, I mentioned about henna and other natural hair oils to keep your hair smooth and shiny. Today, i am gonna post about how to protect your hair color. I hope today this post will be shared by many young teenagers as hair coloring has become a trend among them :) So let's get to work!!

            The trending hair colors preferred by teenagers are burgundy, brown and ash colors. These colors are mostly applied on the front part of the hair as it is the most exposed part which adds beauty to the face.


           
             Speaking on monetary terms, the parlors and salons make a fortune out of this by charging heavily for each sitting. I just have one question to all people who color their hair. How many days does the color stays on your hair? Is it making any justice to the fancy amounts you pay at the salons? Are you completely satisfied with the longevity of your hair color? Sadly, the answer from many of you would be a huge No. Only a small percentage of people take care of their hair colors to make them stay for a longer period of time. Maintenance is also an added cost my beauties!!

           Personally speaking, I do not prefer coloring my hair as my hair is rich black in color. So coloring makes my hair look artificial. I use home made henna to apply to my hair to keep my hair in condition. Since I have not colored my hair even once, I do not have any idea of the cost included maintenance.

            But I do know a solution to help you people out from this situation. I have some useful tips to keep your hair color last long. Plus, its cost effective too!! I have listed some of the tips that you will find effective and useful. Go ahead and rejoice as you can save your money and  use it to buy other beauty products for your face or skin!!

           The main reason your hair color gets faded away is because of excessive exposure to sunlight. Other factors contributing to this are salt water and presence of chlorine in the water you use for showering. So try to avoid these to make your color last longer. Usually chlorine in water can be found in huge amounts in swimming pools. Whenever you go for swimming, make sure you wash off your hair completely with purified water. This will wash off the chlorine from your hair and help in retaining your hair color.

       

          When you step out of your home on sunny days, don't forget to tie a scarf around your hair. This will prevent the Sun's rays from entering directly into your scalp. These rays are so harmful that they possess the tendency to close the pores on your scalp resulting in reduced oxygen supply to your scalp. This leads to hair fall and permanently prevents new hair to grow on your scalp.

        Never ever shower in salt water as it makes your hair rough and the salt content present in it erodes your hair color gradually. When you shampoo your hair, see to that your shampoo, conditioner and other hair related products do not contain Sulfate. Girls who use hair coloring are advised to straighten your before you color your hair. Straightening or curling your hair after coloring makes your hair to lose the color. In case you plan to color and straighten your hair, it is advised to straighten your hair first and color your hair next.

        Color your hair monthly once; not twice or thrice a month as the chemicals present in them cause split ends to your hair with regular usage. If you need to color your hair twice a month, then use conditioners which contain moisturizers and sun screen lotions. Use natural moisturizers for your scalp to help your scalp rejuvenate.
