Creative options for damaged hair!
A friend said she was bored with her long-layered, brunette hair and wanted a change. I could see she was reminiscing from when she had beautiful blonde highlights giving her sparkle, interest and something special. At first, I was ecstatic with the freedom to present creative coloring options! After a few minutes of bouncing ideas off one another, the word "Keratin Treatment" came up...SUMMER BUMMER!
When hair has been treated with a Keratin Treatment, equivalent to a Relaxer Treatment, all bets are off with lightening the hair. The hair has become sensitized (FRAGILE) and will literally break off during the lightening process. It is not possible to lighten previously colored hair predictably using lightener, commonly known as bleach. Bleach is essential to create highlights on hair previously colored. To create great color, the word "predictable" and "lighten" go hand-in-hand. You must correctly lift hair to the correct stage of lightening before toning or glazing the hair to the shade desired.
After explaining the reality of the situation, we both agreed lightening the hair was not an option. After all, hair is a woman's biggest accessory and even though she is gorgeous, losing her hair to breakage from harsh chemicals was simply not acceptable.
THE GOOD NEWS... Creative Coloring combined with innovative hair coloring products provide healthy and interesting options for those in similar situations. Hair treated with a Keratin treatment can appear dull, dry, or damaged. Often, it is brittle and has developed the texture similar to straw after a few treatments.
Solution: Why not opt for a summer shine gloss that will instantly bring reflective shine, moisture and condition while simultaneously infusing rich tone into flat matt hair. These salon treatments last for weeks and are perfect during the hot summer months!
Another exciting option is to create dimension is by adding lowlights using creative coloring techniques with non-ammonia, demi-permanent hair color. Creating dimension by adding deeper pieces of color placed in custom patterns infusing multidimensional tone will bring dry, burned, and boring brunette hair back to "life" again. Like an optical illusion, the deeper pieces painted into the existing dark hair appear like highlights!
Leading chemists and industry innovators from the world's top experts including Beth Minardi Signature Shades, Redken, and others now offer hair color products that are acidic, conditioning, and have a low pH, preventing the cuticle of the hair from swelling leading to further damage of the hair fiber, color fading, lack of shine, and matt color results.
With summer now upon us, caring for hair is essential and salon treatments including summer shine glosses for highly reflective shine, nourishment and moisture, glazing treatments to infuse rich tone, and demi-permanent hair color for creative coloring without damage, summer hair can still be fun and exciting!
