Expert Tips to Perfectly Maintain Blonde Hair

Tip #1 - SPF Protection UV rays are not only harmful to our skin, but they can also dry out our hair, which can lead to discolouration. Of course, the sun is not easily avoidable! If you're planning a day out in the sun, accessorise with a hat. Alternatively, there are some brilliant leave-in hair products with SPF and heat protection. Tip #2 - Invest in a Shower Filter Shower filters are attachments you can put on your shower head to filter out chemicals like chlorine and fluorides that can harm your hair. Too many of the wrong minerals can turn a beautiful shade of blonde into brass in no time! Tip #3 - Avoid Heat Styling We all love that salon-smooth look from hair straighteners or curling irons. But the sad reality is they can cause a lot of damage, especially to coloured hair. Try to minimise how often you use heat styling tools, and be sure to apply a heat protection product first. Tip #4 - Watch out for the 'Nasties' Avoiding harmful ingredients in your haircare products will help keep your blonde look fresher for longer. The biggest no-go for blonde hair is Sulphates, often found in shampoos. The most common Sulphates to look out for are SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) and SLES (Sodium Laureth Sulfate). Tip #5 - Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate! The bleaching or colouring process can really take its toll and often strips our hair of valuable nutrients and natural oils. Make sure your hair care routine includes products rich in hydrating ingredients to restore balance and avoid damage. Now, the bit you've been waiting for - how to maintain blonde hair! Check it out!
