Strengthen your hair with Alfaparf Semi di Lino Reconstruction Reparative Collection so that it will stop breaking when wet
Realize that the process of cosmetically colouring your hair strips the natural pigment from your hair. It also removes all the natural vitamins, proteins, and nutrients of each of your hairs. Hence your hair ends up very weak. Also, when the hair is wet, it’s much weaker.
Our hair is made up of various layers. The external layer is called the cuticle, which is formed of a variety of proteins called keratins. The hair cuticle has a structure of scales that are one on top of the other, aligned vertically. This is what gives volume, flexibility and elasticity to the hair. Bleaching damages the cuticle, and this scale structure isn’t resistant anymore. And when the hair is wet, these proteins form weaker bonds, deforming the cuticle to the point that it lifts up and breaks. If at this weakness, we add on that we keep treating the hair in the same way that we did before the bleaching, the result will be broken hair.

Bleach interacts with pigment in the hair in a chemical process called oxidation. This causes the release of the pigment, explaining how it lifts hair color, Heat may also be used, as it speeds up the oxidation reaction. So if you wait until your roots are longer than two or three centimeters, your roots will develop at two different speeds.

So, prevention is much better than cure. Hairdressers recommend a hair Mask every other night for two weeks in the run-up to an appointment, along with a decent trim. Keeping up regular appointments is important too, as the recommended schedule for bleached hair is to snip at least a few centimetres off each month, which will certainly help to cut down on any associated frizziness and frayed ends.
Healthy-looking bleached hair is totally achievable.
