Tips & Maintenance

There are many things you can do to make your blonde hair lasts longer and be shiny. These are some of our favorite tips for maintaining  blonde Asian hair:

• • This tip is not in first place by mistake. You really need to be patient when transforming from dark to blonde. Even if you are expecting to see results immediately, usually that is not the case. You should expect to bleach your hair a few times before getting that perfect Asian blonde hair. Sometimes, it can take you months before getting there, but once you have done with bleaching, you will be amazed by the results.
  • When picking the blonde shade you prefer, you need to have a few things on your mind. First of all, is that blonde shade compatible with your skin tone? If not, you better opt for something else.
  • For instance, if you have pale or fair skin you can always go with platinum and ashy tones. Golden or honey balayage hues suit girls with medium skin complexions.
  • If you have decided to become a blonde Asian girl, then you need to do it slowly. As we already mentioned, patience is the key when bleaching your natural dark hair. When you go to the salon for the first time, consult with your hairdresser and stay within a maximum of three colors from your natural hair.
  • Do it gradually, don’t overdo it for the first time. Just an honest warning – if you bleach too much you can end up with brassy hair.

• • This tip can be especially important if you have bleached your hair. Try not to wash it with your regular shampoo even for a few days. Stay with dry shampoos, to make your bleach last longer and to protect your hair from getting brassy.

• The only thing that can actually stop blonde hair from turning orange and brassy is the purple shampoo. In the last few years, there are many purple shampoos that can help you achieve perfect blonde shade. You can create a mixture with your purple shampoo and conditioner to treat your hair whenever she needs it.
• If you have just bleached or dyed your hair in blonde, it would be a good idea to avoid or not use hot tools at all. Stylers, curling irons, or straighteners can damage your bleached hair making it look brassy leaving your hair ends dry and like a broomstick.
