ASK ROSIE

ASK ROSIE…

Has summer taken its toll on your hair? Try some simple tips that will make your hair look and feel healthier during the seasonal change.

When you shampoo use tepid water.  Cooler water retains moisture in the hair and also adds extra shine.  Hot water will make treated hair dry, brittle and prone to breakage.

Need a quick color fix but don’t want to break the bank.  Ask your stylist for a color glaze which will restore color and shine while blending in gray or washed out hair.

Condition every time you shampoo!  Make sure your cleansing regimen includes products for color treated hair.  Products not specific to color treated hair may be high in alkalinity and strip your hair of nutrients and color. (Try Redkens’ color extend line.)

Use leave in spray conditioners.  These conditions protect your color from harmful sun and impurities in the environment.
