La discoloration It is a process that allows to reach lighter tones than natural in the hair, but this process can be very harmful for the hair fiber if it is not done correctly and the appropriate precautionary measures are taken
In this post I continue with the tips for bleaching to damage your hair.
How to prevent discoloration from damaging hair (II)
Use coconut oil before lightening your hair
Warm a little of this product and spread it all over the hair and scalp. Let it rest for a period of half an hour with a shower cap on, and only then rinse your hair with the bleach.
This simple trick will help you avoid a lot of hair damage.
Deep conditioning
A few days before and after lightening your hair, use a deep conditioning treatment. In the market there are a lot of special products for this work, although you can also use coconut oil as I explained in the previous point.
Don't use heat
Already the lightening leaves the hair very sensitive, therefore you should avoid using styling tools that require heat because they can damage it even more.
Instead of drying your hair with hot air, put the dryer in cold air, and if it is absolutely necessary to use a little heat, use good protective products first.
Conditioner
After bleaching the hair becomes more easily tangled, so it is essential to use conditioners after shampooing. These products will also give the hair more moisture and ensure that the detangling process is less harmful.
Protect your hair from the sun
One of the most important things to do when you have lightened your hair is to protect it from UV radiation. Try using sprays and other products that protect your hair from the sun or keep your hair under a hat when outdoors.
