As we approach spring, many of us are still trying to repair our tressesfrom the harsh effects caused by the winter weather. Finer, more fragile andmore likely to dry out than other hair colours, Blonde hair colour(especially when it is bleached) can take a serious beating during thecooler months. Blonde hair tends to fade faster, loose shine, and can startto look brassy or yellow and this is why more love and care is essential foryour hair. Luckily, there’s plenty you can do at home to beautify your Blonde andneutralize warm tones. The secret to fighting brassiness is to use a toningproduct such as a Purple shampoo or mask. On the colour wheel, purple is thedirect opposite of yellow, which means they cancel one another out. So, whenusing purple-pigment on color-treated, yellow or brassy hair, it neutralisesand colour-corrects your hair’s hue, restoring it to its former natural orneutral brightness with cooler tones.
