To maintain the vibrancy of your brown hair with Brown Blonde Highlights, follow these tips:
1. Use Color-Protecting Products
- Sulfate-Free Shampoo and Conditioner: Sulfates can strip color and moisture from your hair. Use a sulfate-free, color-safe shampoo and conditioner to protect your highlights.
- Purple or Blue Shampoo: Use a purple or blue shampoo once a week to neutralize any brassiness and keep your Brown Blonde Highlights bright.For example, Olaplex Blonde Enhancer is a great option.
2. Limit Washing Frequency
- Wash your hair less frequently (2-3 times a week) to reduce color fading. Use lukewarm water instead of hot water, as hot water can strip color.
3. Deep Conditioning
- Use a deep conditioning treatment or hair mask at least once a week to keep your hair hydrated and reduce damage.Look for products with nourishing oils like coconut or argan oil.
4. Protect from Heat and Sun
- Heat Protection: Always apply a heat protectant before using heat styling tools to minimize damage.
- UV Protection: Protect your hair from UV rays by wearing a hat or using products with UV filters.
5. Regular Touch-Ups
- Schedule regular touch-ups every 6-8 weeks to maintain the vibrancy of your highlights and prevent noticeable regrowth.
6. Toner and Gloss
- Use a toner to neutralize any unwanted tones and enhance the overall color vibrancy.For dark brown hair with highlights, a blue or purple toner can help counteract brassiness.
7. Avoid Chlorine
- If you swim, use a swim cap or rinse your hair with fresh water before entering the pool to reduce chlorine exposure.
8. Gentle Brushing
- Use a wide-tooth comb or a brush designed for wet hair to minimize breakage and damage, especially when your hair is wet.
9. Consult a Professional
- If you’re unsure about any step, consult a professional stylist for personalized recommendations on maintenance and suitable products.
By following these tips, you can help keep your brown hair with Brown Blonde Highlights looking fresh and vibrant while minimizing damage.
