Steps to tone your hair
The steps to tone your hair at home differ depending on whether you have natural hair, extensions or a wig. You can find all the tutorials here. The general instructions are:
1. Start with freshly washed, towel-dried hair.
2. Divide hair into sections for even application.
3. Apply the gel and leave on for 5 to 15 minutes, depending on the intensity of the result you want.
4. Rinse thoroughly. Avoid applying the gel directly to your scalp, skin or extension attachments.
Avoid stains and discoloration
Hair discoloration can sometimes be difficult to avoid, especially as external factors such as water quality and product choice come into play. For example, did you know that the ingredient avobenzone, often found in sunscreen products, can cause unwanted color shifts in your hair?
To protect your haircolor, keep the following in mind:
- Put your hair up when applying sunscreen to your body, especially if the product contains avobenzone.
- Protect your hair when bathing - preferably in a bun or in contact with chlorine or salt water.
What causes yellow tones in the hair?
Your blonde hair turning yellow and losing its cool color can be due to many different causes. It is common for the pigment in the hair to oxidize and for minerals in the water to affect the hair. In addition, the UV radiation from the sun as well as heating tools can cause hair to yellow.
How to keep a cool color fresh for a long time
Keeping your hair fresh and free of yellow tones is easy if you take maintenance seriously. If you use BHBD Detox Spray Shampoo at least once a week and Silver Shampoo once a week, and use heat protection, your hair will keep a beautiful cool color for much longer.
