Color Fading is an ongoing problem with all
hair color, especially the red family. Although different color
lines promote their colors as fade resistant...it is a difficult task to
achieve. Some color loss of intensity is inevitable.
Here are some tips you can use to get the most life out of your hair color service Wash your hair with a shampoo that has been recommended by your hairstylist as color safe. Many shampoos in an effort to clean your hair help remove the color molecules from your hair. Good for clean hair bad for color. Wash and rinse your hair in tepid to cool water. This helps seal your hair shaft keeping the color molecules trapped. Use color enhancing shampoos and conditioners. These are wonderful products that keep your color looking fresh in between color services. ARTec Products puts out a great line of color shampoos that do not interfere with your ongoing color services. They have a good selection of reds (my favorite) as well as blonds and brunettes. Wear a hat or sunblock on your hair when in the sun and try to keep your hair OUT of the pool if you are a swimmer. |
Dandruff You know...the little white flakes that people make jokes about. Well for those people that have dandruff... it is no joking matter. It can be a pain in the neck. There are professional hair care treatments available at your local salon that can help you with this treatable condition. Here are a couple of them: Nexxus has Dandarrest Dandruff Shampoo: It is formulated to provide the ultimate control for dry or oily dandruff. It relieves the itching and flaking associated with all forms of dandruff as well as seborrhea, psoriasis, eczema and even cradle cap for children over the age of two. It is gentle yet effective in controlling the scalp condition while increasing the hair's strength and elasticity, as well as making the hair soft and manageable. Since it is a prescription strength shampoo, it may be used twice a week or as directed by a doctor. Dandarrest can also be used as a body scrub for treating dry flaky skin patches. Manicurists and pedicurists can use it as a nail scrub to help eliminate nail fungus or when nail fungus appears resulting from artificial nails and add it to a foot bath to keep feet fungus free. American Crew has Dandruff Shampoo that has the same active ingredient as Dandarrest. |
