Be Careful When Changing The Tone Of Your Blonde.

~ Joseph Kellner ~ Leave a comment

During your time with blonde hair. You have to be very careful when changing the tone or making it lighter.  Water especially in the Orlando area has a lot of chemicals in it. AND WILL ADD A YELLOWING TO YOU LOVELY BLONDE HAIR COLOR.

When changing your tone of blonde or going lighter remember blonde hair is the most fragile to work with. You have pretty much taken out a lot of the melanin in the hair shaft. And the shaft itself can become very weak and dry and brittle.

That is why it is good not to over wash the hair, especially with alkaline hair care products. Alkaline hair care products will swell up the cuticle of the hair and give you huge frizzy hair. And what will happen is you will end up using a lot of hair care products to just tame it down. And make it manageable.

Highlighting the hair over and over will cause dryness and breakage to the hair. You will loose tinsel strength and just unruly hair to work with. If you are at that period it is best to just cut it off. Here are some tips for you blonde hair and hair care advice.

  • Don’t wash you hair everyday. You can use condition on the shaft and ends of the hair and that will make it clean. And did you know conditions are just low grade shampoos.
  • Use a wide tooth comb to comb out the tangles and to apply treatments to the hair. A lot of people will use brushes on the hair to comb it out. DON’T. ESPECIALLY WITH BLONDE HAIR. THAT IS A NO-NO.
  • I highly recommend the Shea Moisture hair care line.

Towel dry the hair before placing any hair care products on. If there is too much moisture (water) in the hair it will dilute the hair care product. I will hope this has brought you some good advice.

GK ThermalStyleHer Cream Is A Thumbs For Me!

Smoothing out the hair is very important for the women of Florida. The high humidity and rain will turn a very professional blowout into a messy work of nature. It important to know your products and what works best for you. I like to use a lot of different lines for any and all of my blow-outs. I recently tried from GK a thermal style that works pretty good also if it is mixed with a serum it is even better.

This heat activated styling cream creates a smooth finish while conditioning and delivering moisture to the hair. Fortified with Juvexin® and made with natural silicone’s and natural seed oils to leave hair silky, beautiful and protected.

HOW TO USE IT:

Step 1: Emulsify a small amount in palms.

Step 2: Smooth through damp hair.

Step 3: Blow dry for soft and protected hair.

I use a quarter amount for my blow-out and comb through the hair. Also stay away from the scalp when applying your product. Styling products are for the shaft and ends of the hair.  Too much of a product will make the scalp greasy. And also will make you drying longer. Comb through the hair with a wide tooth comb. Never use a brush to comb out the hair this will allow for breakage of the hair. Especially the blonde hair color family’s. Blow out the moisture in the hair up to about 70% and then take small sections with a boar or metal brush to finish your style, I always like to add some rollers to the sections while I am completing another section.  Give this product a try. Thumbs up from me!!!
