Having only dipped my toe in the blonde-pond by getting balayage, it’s been enough to see that caring for blonde, bleached, and lightened hair is incredibly important. Not only is hair drier and more susceptible to breakage, but you also have to worry about maintaining that perfect golden or silver colour.
Luckily for all of you lighter-haired ladies out there, there are a whole bunch of shampoos, conditioners, and treatments that have been specially developed to care for, treat, and maintain the health and shine of blonde hair. And here are just a few:
Paul Mitchell Forever Blonde™ Shampoo
The sulfate-free shampoo gently cleanses while ensuring blonde hair is kept light, bright and healthy. KerActive protein and safflower oleosomes help repair damage and restore lost moisture to hair. Oh, and don’t worry about the shampoo toning your hair – it can be used daily without affecting the colour of your blonde.
muk Blonde muk Toning Shampoo
Hair feeling a bit brassy or yellow? Try this muk shampoo (which can be used on blonde, grey, and white hair) to help clarify the colour while leaving locks softer, shinier and stronger. A little goes a long way, too, with only a small teaspoon needed for a full wash.
John Frieda SHEER BLONDE® Colour Renew Tone-Refreshing Shampoo
The shampoo features some pretty fancy technology to convert UV rays to a white-blue light, making your blonde hair lighter and brighter. Pretty cool, right? And if your hair needs a bit of loving, it’ll deeply moisturise and nourish it without weighing it down.
bhave™ bombshell blonde shampoo
Colour-correcting pigments will help neutralize any brassy tones, while organic argan oil and keratin will ensure your hair feels refreshed and nourished and looks full of life. Added bonus: the shampoo is free from parabens, sulfates, and sodium chloride.
