Grey and White tresses require different routines and products to keep them looking and feeling their best. The change in pigment can often result in drier locks and texture changes, so Nourishment is paramount in your new routine.
(1) Choose an every-day Shampoo and Conditioner that will infuse Moisture back in so that it remains healthy and manageable, OR choose a Volumizing pair that will bring back buoyancy. Always use products that are sulfate free because they themselves can be drying. We have some great choices in the salon from Redken and Kenra.
(2) Choose a Clarifying Shampoo for OCCASIONAL use that will cleanse and neutralize brassy or dull yellow tones. One of our most popular is So Silver by Matrix. It will illuminate highlights and add brightness. (These Clarifying shampoos are NOT for daily use, but are meant for periodic toning)
Now that you have chosen the products for Nurturing your hair, it is time for Protecting your hair. Your grey and white tresses are sensitive to the sun, so you may want to consider wearing a hat while out in the sunshine. You will also want to take care when using hot styling tools, and try to keep them at 350 degrees or under.
(3) Choose a heat protectant when styling with hot tools, such as Paul Mitchell's Hot Off the Press or Kenra Thermal Spray 19.
And lastly, for pampering and protecting, sleep on a Satin Pillowcase which guards against friction.
These few tips will be the ultimate Self Care for your grey and white hair management.
