Lightening is a tremendous stress for hair. Aggressive components of the coloring agent lift the scales, washing their own pigment and giving the curls a new shade. Moreover, the higher the concentration of hydrogen peroxide in the composition, the stronger the detrimental effect. If you examine the clarified hair under a microscope, its texture will be loose. This leads to vulnerability to external factors. And even if you do not notice negative changes with your naked eyes, your strands still need rehabilitation.

Care Tips
Restoring hair after lightening is painstaking work. In order for your efforts to bear fruit as soon as possible, follow the eight basic recommendations for caring for blond curls.
- Masks do courses. Apply nutritious folk remedies to curls at least once a week if you have normal or oily hair. If you have dry hair, you will need two to three sessions. The full course is three months.
- Alternate means. Every two to three weeks, change the composition to feed the curls. So, it is good to alternate an egg mask with honey with warmed kefir.
- Protect curls from the sun and frost. In winter and summer, you need to hide the clarified strands under the headgear to prevent their cross-section and fragility.
- Refuse thermal procedures. At least the first couple of weeks after lightening, the use of a hair dryer, ironing and curling iron should be completely eliminated. In the future, their use is possible only in case of emergency. Do not forget about products with the effect of thermal protection.
- Trim the ends. Frequency - once a quarter. This will refresh the hairstyle, and also allow more rational use of your own nutritional resources and components of masks.
- Wash your hair properly. Water should be warm. Finish the procedure with cold grassy rinsing to close the scales.
- Use professional tools. Apply moisturizing serums regularly to the ends.
- Feed the strands from the inside. Eat and consume nutritional supplements properly. Positive effect on the condition of the hair of the brewer's yeast andfish fat.

Fortunately, modern cosmetics can turn a burning brunette into a golden-haired blonde in a matter of minutes. The main thing is to know how to treat hair after bleaching, so as not to spoil the hair in the pursuit of beauty.
Reviews: “I have developed my system”
Also highlighted before and very spoiled hair. The hairdresser advised only after each hair wash to use balm and all. But I developed my hair restoration system. I decided to switch to natural shampoos for hair care. I use natural masks and balms. As a result, after dyeing, the hair is shiny and very pleasant to the touch, silky, not like a washcloth. Purpose: to restore, nourish, revitalize clarified hair - for this, after washing the hair, apply the hair mask for the entire length for 30 minutes. Then, on slightly dried hair, apply serum to the ends of the hair. In order to prevent hair from falling out and combing well, we apply conditioner and thermal protection and only then dry it.

I highlight hair constantly and cannot refuse it. I was advised to lubricate the ends of my hair olive oil with lemon juice. I am doing such procedures, and it seems to me that my hair condition has improved a lot. Hair became more friable and endowed with the necessary moisture.

Could not help sharing .. I bleached my hair, and I had curls, and they just started to tear. I didn’t touch them for a week, and then dyed my hair basmabut mixed it with brown henna, and so painted for 3 weeks, every weekend and sat for an hour, one and a half. And now I have perfect, thick and vibrant hair. The most important thing is that they are long and did not have to be cut short
