Alles over blond/asblond haar!

Je hebt ze vast wel eens op je Pinterest of Instagram voorbij zien komen: prachtige asblonde haarlokken. Asblond is een ongekend populaire haarkleur onder zowel blondines als brunettes die hun haar willen blonderen. Toch weten we allemaal dat de kwaliteit van het haar er aanzienlijk op achteruit kan gaan. Blonderen is namelijk niets minder dan het bleken van de haarpigmenten. Want: om je haar lichter te maken moet het haar worden ontkleurd.

Natuurlijk is het effect van het blonderen sterk afhankelijk van jouw eigen haarkleur. Heb je al blond haar? Een blondering is in dit geval niet nodig en daarmee voorkom je een hele hoop onnodige schade aan je haar. Heb je donker haar en wil je naar (as)blond? Dan is het nodig je haar te ontkleuren voor je de gewenste kleur bereikt.

Het hebben van asblonde lokken vereist veel tijd en aandacht. Zo is het voor brunettes die hun haar lichter hebben geverfd vaak herkenbaar dat het haar na enkele wasbeurten snel weer geel of oranje is. Dit willen we natuurlijk niet! Om deze ongewenste, warme tinten te behandelen en voorkomen hebben wij wat tips op een rijtje gezet. Zo heb jij langer plezier van je prachtige asblonde haar!

1. Zilvershampoo

If you have blonde hair, a silver shampoo is essential within your hair routine. A silver shampoo is a shampoo with violet pigments, which helps you get rid of an annoying and unwanted warm glow. Purple and blue pigments are the complementary colours of orange and yellow in the colour wheel, removing these warm tones from your hair and leaving you with an ash-blonde colour. Read more about silver shampoo in our blog. An example of a silver shampoo that neutralises yellow and golden tones is SachaJuan Silver Shampoo. This silver shampoo contains pigments that not only neutralise colours, but also add volume and deep shine. SachaJuan Silver Shampoo has UV protection, which protects hair from external influences. Moreover, this shampoo provides hydration to the hair due to Ocean Silk technology. Silver Shampoo is the perfect solution to freshen up ash-blonde hair colour. So you can postpone your treatment at the hairdresser's for a while!

2. De juiste haarverzorging

Blonding is an intensive treatment. Silver shampoo is an ideal solution, but it doesn't give your hair the nourishment it needs. Extra care is therefore not a luxury. To restore your hair and keep it healthy, it is recommended to use conditioning products such as a leave-in conditioner or an intensive treatment. For example, SachaJuan Over Night Hair Repair is a very suitable choice for this purpose. This product is a water-based care product aimed at improving hair elasticity and strength. SachaJuan Over Night Hair Repair contains a high percentage of Ocean Silk technology which ensures shiny and silky hair. In addition, the CHI Rose Hip Oil Recovery Treatment is a perfect choice when it comes to intensively nourishing your coloured, damaged locks. This treatment contains rose hip oil, vitamin C and antioxidants that regulate moisture and repair damaged hair. Moreover, this product strengthens the hair, preventing hair breakage. A win-win in other words!

3. Vermijd sulfaten

Sulphates are powerful cleansers found in many skin and hair products, among others. So too in normal shampoos. Thus, shampoos containing sulphates are often popular for their thorough cleansing and foaming effect. What many people do not realise is that sulphates also have many disadvantages. For instance, it dries out the scalp and can even cause irritation. This is because its cleansing function is often too aggressive for the scalp. In addition, this intense cleansing causes your hair colour to fade. So for optimal care of your coloured locks, it is very wise to use mild, sulphate-free shampoos. We at En.johnbeerens.com have several sulphate-free shampoos within our range. For example, the Biosilk Silk Therapy Coconut Oil 3 in 1, which is a moisturising shampoo, conditioner and body wash in one. Free of parabens and sulphates, this product provides nourishment and protection for coloured hair. In short: a super versatile product!

4. Droogshampoo

That washing your hair too often is not good for your coloured locks is nothing new. You probably know it: you step out of the hairdresser's and you are totally happy with your new colour, but after a few washes, the colour starts to fade. This, of course, is very frustrating. To combat fading, it is therefore important not to wash your hair too often. To stretch the period between washes, a dry shampoo is ideal! For example, the Biosilk Dry Clean Shampoo. This dry shampoo ensures clean and fresh hair, as well as giving it more volume and texture. You can read more about the essence of this shampoo form for hair in our blog on dry shampoo.

We can hardly imagine a curling or straightening iron out of our hair routine. Yet these heat tools can cause enormous damage to our bleached hair. For instance, these tools can suck the colour and moisture out of your hair and - in the worst case - even cause hair breakage. We therefore recommend always using heat protection to preserve your coloured, ash-blonde locks and to protect your hair. What good is straight hair if it is completely damaged. So always protect hair with heat protection!

6. Bescherming tegen UV-straling

When you go for ash-blonde hair, you are obviously not at all keen on warm shades. UV radiation is your biggest enemy here. Too much UV radiation damages and bleaches your hair, causing unwanted warm tones in your hair. Therefore, be sparing when it comes to sun exposure. Here, it is also not unnecessary to use a heat protector for optimal sun protection. Furthermore, we have hair care in our range that is specially made to prevent sun damage. Think Biosilk Summer hair care, or SachaJuan's sun protection and after sun for hair. You can read all about how best to protect your hair in our blog on sunlight and hair.

7. Herstel je haar

Because blonding dries out your hair a lot, it is essential to give your hair the extra nourishment it needs. You can use a hair mask for this, for example, once a week. A weekly hair mask not only provides intensive nourishment, but also protects it from unwanted effects of salt or chlorinated water, for example.

8. Glanzend haar

Bleaching, like any other colouring, is a chemical treatment for the hair, and causes the hair cuticles to open. The openness of the scales reduces the reflection of light and thus reduces shine. To regain this shine, it is important to take good care of your hair with the right products after colouring. A multifunctional product that helps you with this is the CHI Rose Hip Oil Dry UV Protecting Oil Hairspray. This hair spray adds shine to coloured hair and prevents premature colour loss. Moreover, this spray protects hair from harmful external influences.

9. Haarvitamines

Healthy and strong hair responds better to blonding. To strengthen the hair roots, it is wise to use hair supplements. These hair vitamins often contain all the necessary ingredients to promote hair growth and strengthen hair. This way, you limit post-blonde damage and enjoy your blonde locks for longer - without hair damage! It is clear that maintaining your (ash-)blonde hair requires a lot of time and energy. For optimal results, we therefore recommend - as with skin care - not to skimp on hair products and to take good care of your coloured hairstyle. That way, your hair will keep its perfect ash blonde colour, and remain shiny and healthy!
