Powerful Homemade Hydration for Blonde or Highlighted Hair

Want to change your look and bleach your hair but are afraid that it will become dry and lifeless?

This text is for you, dear reader, who wants to learn how to hydrate your light hair without spending tons of money in beauty salons.

First, let’s understand why hydration is our ally when it comes to keeping our hair healthy and beautiful.

The outer layer of hair strands is called the cuticle.

It is made up of 5 to 10 layers of overlapping flat cells that are held together thanks to ceramides, intercellular lipids (fats) that give the hair a silky texture.

Physical agents, such as hairdryers, straighteners and severe brushing, and chemicals, such as dyes, perms and straightening, cause damage to the hair by removing the fatty protection from the strands.

Without this shield, the layers of cells can open up into scales, exposing the middle layer of the hair: the cortex.

The hair cortex is made up of bundles of keratin protein and is responsible for the elasticity and resistance of the hair.

Once the cortex is exposed, the hair will lose water, becoming porous and brittle.

Very damaged hair needs to be hydrated and reconstructed, closing the open scales in the cuticle and allowing moisture to remain within the hair fiber.

Those who decide to bleach their hair commonly suffer from dryness and weakening of the hair.

Therefore, frequent hydration of hair should be in the plans of everyone who intends to adopt a platinum look.

Next, we’ll give you three recipes for powerful homemade masks to hydrate your hair.

The suggested treatments should be repeated once a week.

For daily treatment, opt for conditioners or styling creams with moisturizing agents.

It is worth mentioning that choosing a good shampoo and conditioner, specifically for bleached or chemically treated hair, also helps a lot in maintaining the beauty of your locks.
