Tips & Tricks for Our Redheads
Did you know that only 1 to 2% of the world’s population has red hair? About 10% of the Irish population has this gorgeous color naturally, which makes it the highest incidence in the world. With St. Patrick’s Day approaching, let’s give our redheads (both natural & dyed) some love with our best tips to preserve this radiant color!
As of last year, many celebrities, including Zendaya, Kendall Jenner & Sydney Sweeney, helped kick-start this red hair-dying trend and many 20 to 30-year old women followed their lead. Burgundy or richer red coloring best compliments those with olive or golden skin tones, but you can mix shades to find your perfect match! However, it is important to remember that red fades faster than any other color, so you have to be ready to keep up with the maintenance! “Rule of thumb” is to refresh your red every 6 to 8 weeks to avoid fading.
A salon secret to keep the color vibrant & hair shiny is through a treatment known as “glossing!” Lucky for you, we at Clean Beauty Boutique have you covered with this service – Learn more about our gloss hair treatments HERE! If you think you may want less of a commitment, then try adding some red highlights. This can help give your hair a similar, more subtle effect, without the maintenance.
For those of you blessed with this fiery red color naturally, the key to help the color last is…HYDRATION! Using hydrating shampoos & conditioners, hair masks & heat protectants regularly can help ensure your color does not fade over time. Be cautious of being out in the sun for too long & using products with alcohol that can dry out your hair. Next time you’re at Clean Beauty Boutique, ask your stylist for product recommendations to help keep your hair looking its healthiest! We have an array of clean-ingredient hair products for you to try during your session that are also available for purchase, so you can continue this new & improved hair regime at home.
