After getting professional balayage highlights, an ombre treatment or even a monochrome color upgrade to your hair, you’ll want to care for your strands with the right products so you can extend the gorgeous shine of your new look, for as long as possible. 

​

Please consider the following aftercare tips for your color-treated hair so it stays bright and shimmery until your next appointment.

​

• Get a color care shampoo and conditioner. Regular shampoo and conditioner will strip the color from your hair. 

• Go easy on the heat. Styling with tools (especially flat irons), draws out moisture, leaving your highlighted hair weak and brittle. Always use a thermal protectant before you style, and use tools at the lowest setting possible.

• Use weekly deep conditioning at home. Highlighting strips keratin protein from your hair, so it needs an extra boost to keep it strong. Weekly deep conditioning help keep the structure of healthy hair.  Be sure to check out our Bee Smudge Hair Mask (details given in our product section), for its deep conditioning properties! 

• Monthly deep conditioning at the Hair Bar.  At-home hair conditioning is great, but salon strength is best. Schedule a deep conditioning treatment once per month to keep hair healthy.
