Rebuttal – Your hair is at stake!!

We recently posted a little story about someone who had gotten a bad color job (read it here), and they called to get some answers:

“How long should I wait before I get my hair colored again?”

We are taking this time to change our answer…

She should not wait another second!!!!!

Shine on Highlights — Glossy Highlight and Curl

The structural integrity of your hair is at stake, and so is your mental well-being!!

Science has made it possible to correct damage caused by bleaching or color processing or even Prevent it! That poor woman needs OLAPLEX STAT!!!

She also needs the assurance that her color looks and feels the way that makes her happy. When your hair isn’t right, you touch it more and manipulate it more, and that is bad for damaged hair.

We could even tone the over-processed strands with OLAPLEX to repair the bonds that support the shaft of the hair.

The original answer was the old way of thinking. Welcome to the FUTURE!!

Highlighting Mishaps?

We recently received a call from someone who had her hair highlighted by another salon. After explaining the trauma she felt, she asked a really great question:

“How long should I wait before I get my hair colored again?”

This is a GREAT QUESTION!!!! We understand the impulse to want to fix your hair immediately after a traumatic color job, but hang in there if you can. The structural integrity of your hair is at stake!

Based on the type and amount of highlighting, we recommended this woman wait 3 weeks before making any color corrections. Her hair needs to find its balance first.

Now let’s say she just couldn’t wait that long; she has options. She would need an OLAPLEX treatment STAT! Defend that color damaged hair! And rather than recoloring, we could tone the hair by just adding pigment to her stripped down hair. But we still recommend giving your hair a rest. #hairsalvation

Did you forget this for your Vacation?

Hair care tips you might have forgotten (or not even know) as presented by DryLand:

It’s Vacation season!! Going somewhere warm and sunny? With a beach!? We’re Jealous. However, If you have a smoothing treatment, you may want to limit the amount of time you spend in Salty Ocean Water.

Personally we LOVE swimming in the ocean, and you can’t stop us from hitting the surf, so here are some tips to minimize the ill effects of salt on your smoothing treatment.

Before: Use a leave-in conditioner, or don’t fully rinse off your regular conditioner.

During: Put your hair up in a bun! Your head spends the least time underwater, so a pretty, high bun can minimize your hair’s exposure to the salt.
Hats!!! Hats can protect your skin and your hair from UV damage.

After: Rinse with fresh water as soon as you can! Letting the salt dry on your hair is the time when the keratin in smoothing treatments breaks down the most.

All along: Embrace it. You’re on vacation. Odds are you’ll have a fabulous, beachy look and a good deal of that vacation glow. Your stylist can always fix you up when you get back!
