5 Tips For Lightened Hair

March 27th, 2009

After lightening, hair is fragile and feels dry and coarse Using the wrong products, combined with mechanical damage can make it even worse. Here are five things you can do now to improve the look and feel of your lightened hair.

 

1) Use Paul Mitchell Super Strong Shampoo and Conditioner every time you wash your hair. The Super Strong Complex penetrates deep into the cortex of the hair to rebuild the internal structure. 

 

2) Regular trims are necessary when you have lightened hair. Make an appointment to get your hair cut every 4-6 weeks to freshen up damaged ends, and prevent hair from breaking.

 

3) Use Paul Mitchell Super Strong Treatment once a week. Wheat proteins and amino acids rich in minerals and carbohydrates help restore elasticity and strength. Apply to warm, damp hair, let sit for 5 minutes and rinse with cool water. The Super Strong Treatment does absolute miracles for damaged hair!

 

4) Good styling products are key to making bleached or otherwise damaged hair look healthy. Paul Mitchell Seal & Shine, and Sculpting Foam prepare hair to be dried and protect it from mechanical damage. Gloss Drops smoothes hair and adds shine.

 

5) A good finish with a ceramic flat iron or curling iron will smooth out the surface of hair, making it look more healthy and happy. Be sure that your hair is completely dry before flat ironing or curling, and use a heat protective spray like Paul Mitchell Seal & Shine or Paul Mitchell Heat Seal.

 

 

Be sure to ask your stylist if the recommended products are the best for your particular hair type, and for more tips and suggestions!

Winter Hair Hydration Tips From Rivendell Hair

January 29th, 2009

During the Winter, harsh weather conditions outside and artificial heating inside can wreak havoc on your skin and hair, leaving it dry. Here are a few things you can do to re-hydrate and revitalize your hair.

 

1) Switch to Paul Mitchell Instant Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner. The Instant Moisture Complex penetrates deep into the hair where it helps protect both the cuticle and the cortex. Panthenol adds volume and also attaches to the surface to repair damaged cuticle layers.

 

2) Give your hair a weekly deep conditioning treatment with Paul Mitchell Super-Charged Moisturizer. Panthenol, soy proteins and vitamin E give deep down conditioning moisture and improve elasticity while aloe, chammomile, rosemary and jojoba provide a high shine.

 

3) Keep dry ends feeling soft by applying Paul Mitchell The Conditioner as a leave-in. Activated Moisture Blend with Awapuhi and wheat-derived conditioners balace moisture, smooth the surface and reduce static. The unique water-based formula is excellent for both skin and hair!

 

4) Get a top coat for PM Shines ammonia-free demi-permanent hair color. The exclusive Intense Hydrating Complex penetrates deep into the hair shaft and adds intense hydration and brilliant shine for up to six weeks!

 

5) When possible, cover your hair with a hat or hood before going outside to protect it from the elements.

 

 

Be sure to ask your stylist if the recommended products are the best for your particular hair type, and for more tips and suggestions!
