TAKING CARE OF PLATINUM HAIR

The bleaching and the colouring process can rip away protein from your hair’s cuticles, leaving it dry and dull. Hence, extra care is necessary once the hair is dyed. “Make sure to use a sulfate-free shampoo that’s gentle, followed by a conditioner that will tightly close the cuticle. Regular trim every five to six weeks is necessary as your hair will now be prone to split ends. Avoid excessive usage of heating tools,” suggests hair stylist Rod Anker.

HOW TO RESTORE THE DAMAGE

Dermatologist Kiran Lohia says, “Though it looks cool, it can actually cause a lot more breakage and traumatise the hair if not done properly. After putting this colour, if you want to bounce back to the original colour and quality, avoid hair colouring, highlighting and keratin treatment for at least three to six months. You should opt for coconut hair oiling two to three times a week. Pre-conditioning masks and hair mask with avocado and eggs are great.”
