Blonde hair, highlights and even naturally white hair is high maintenance. That's because light hair is one of the hardest colours to stay true-to-shade. However, a touch of silver or violet in your daily cleansing and conditioning routine helps balance the changes the environment throws at your coloured hair. This problem is all in the lightening process that takes place when hair is coloured bleaching, or lightening hair removes any natural colour, necessary for it to look lighter, however, then it's at risk of looking dry and frizzy, which is why it needs specialised care. Before you commit to wearing light locks, you need to make sure you take care of your colour with a colour-enhancing shampoo and conditioner. Here's our latest crush.
