Here’s why it’s important to come to your color appointment with clean hair.
Why clean hair is better
1. Even Color Application: Clean hair allows for an even distribution of hair color, ensuring that the dye is applied uniformly. This helps prevent patchy or uneven results.
2. Better Adherence: Clean hair has fewer residues like oils, products, and environmental pollutants, which can hinder the color's adherence to the strands. This results in a longer-lasting and more vibrant color.
3. Accurate Color Matching: Clean hair provides a clear canvas for colorists to assess your natural hair color accurately. This helps them choose the right shade to achieve your desired look.
4. Balanced Porosity: Clean hair generally has balanced porosity, meaning the color can penetrate the hair shaft more evenly. This results in consistent color absorption and better color results.
5. Reduced Irritation: Coloring products can sometimes irritate the scalp. Clean hair reduces the risk of irritation as there are no lingering residues that might react with the coloring chemicals.
