If you are colouring your hair I highly recommend using a professional haircare range. Here is a short insight as to why I favour professional haircare to pharmacy or supermarket brands.
Here's why ~
Protection and nourishment.
Professional haircare is crafted to support coloured hair by preserving the vibrancy of tinted shades, replenishing moisture and strength in lightened hair, and safeguarding against additional dryness. These products help maintain the natural integrity of the hair and protect or repair chemical damage with a higher concentration of active ingredients and usually technically researched to meet each specifics brand requirement's.
Healthy Scalp ~
The quality and formulation of ingredients in professional haircare products help balance the scalp starting from the follicle. In contrast, non-professional haircare products often contain harsh surfactants that can strip away natural oils, leading to dry, flaky skin and weakened hair. These products may also contain fillers, a higher amount of water and artifical fragrances.
No sneaky build up ~
Some non-professional hair products include silicones, which are used to provide an immediate sensation of smoothness and shine, falsely indicating that the hair is healthy and strong. These silicones form a layer on the hair, and with prolonged use, this layer becomes thicker. Unfortunately, this can sometimes lead to unexpected reactions with hair colour treatments.
Parabens and Sulphates ~
Technological advancements have significantly progressed, providing safer haircare options for mindful consumers. In certain product lines, parabens have been substituted with gentler, natural alternatives to these harsh preservatives. Similarly, sulphates, which create lather in products, have alternatives that may produce fewer bubbles but still provide a clean feeling, ensuring your product is less toxic.
