Orange in hair after lightening
Orange in hair after lightening: why it happens and how to deal with it?
We all dream of a perfect hair look – a radiant blonde or light shades that radiate freshness, but then that moment comes when you look in the mirror and your hair looks… orange. Before you lose patience, let’s understand why this happens and what you can do to solve the problem (and prevent it next time).
Why does hair turn orange after lightening?
The process of lightening hair is one of the most challenging hair treatments. Simply put, it is a process that removes the natural pigments from your hair. But if you start with relatively dark hair, the natural red-orange pigment in it may remain in the hair and become more visible when the lighter shades are revealed.
Furthermore, improper use of lightening agents, partial lightening, or failure to use an appropriate toner may leave you with an orange hue instead of your dream blonde.
So what do we do with this orange?
Use Silver Shampoo (against yellow and orange pigments)
Silver shampoo, like our "Silver Shampoo to Neutralize Yellow Pigment," is the perfect solution to get your blonde back under control. The shampoo contains purple pigments that neutralize orange and yellow, leaving your hair with a cool, accurate tone.
Steps for a suitable mask for hair after lightening
Treating bleached hair requires special moisture and nourishment, as the bleaching process leaves hair vulnerable and dry. A mask like our Genesis Mask is great for this! It is enriched with keratin and shea, strengthens the hair, restores moisture and keeps it healthy and shiny.
Contact a professional
If you feel like the situation is getting out of hand, don't try to fix it yourself at home. A visit to a professional colorist will ensure that your hair gets the best treatment possible, including a customized toner that will neutralize the orange and complete the look.
How do you avoid the problem next time?
Choose an experienced hair lightening professional.
Clarification is a complex process that requires knowledge and experience. Professional work can prevent problems before they even happen.
Treat your hair before and after lightening-
Healthy hair responds better to color treatments. Use products that strengthen the hair, such as " Shea Keratin Ampoule " which provides protection to the hair and maintains its softness over time.
Keep your hair at home-
A suitable care routine for lightened hair includes using dedicated products, such as SLS-free shampoos and moisture-rich masks.
In conclusion
Orange hair after bleaching can be a challenge, but with the right products, a little patience, and a professional touch, it can be made temporary. Choose quality hair care products, like those from Sahara, and give your hair the attention it needs to look radiant and healthy all the time.
