Here are a few tips every blonde should know at every stage of the going-blonde process:
SHADES OF BLONDE: CHOOSING YOURS
The right mate, the ideal job, the right friends, the right attitude... and the right blonde. Big life decisions can be tough, but choosing the right shade of blonde is refreshingly easy. With tones and shades to suit every look and lifestyle, finding your perfect blonde Nutrisse Cream hue is the first big step in your transformation. Here are a few pointers to get the ball rolling:
WARM UP
Golden shades* warm up your face and add a vibrant springtime glow you can't hide. Not to mention they look hot on women who proudly wear orange, yellow, pink and red.
*Nutrisse Cream 93 and 73
NEUTRALIZE
Ash shades* help neutralize copper or golden tones so your haircolour keeps it real. Plus they look awesome on blondes who don blue and purple to perfection.
*Nutrisse Cream 92, 82 and NEW 98
AU NATUREL
Natural shades* give a natural, organic colour that looks as young as you feel. Oh, and they’re perfect for ladies who stick with black and white. (Can’t beat the basics!)
*Nutrisse Cream 90, 80 and 70
SUBTLE DIMENSION
If you're looking for a more subtle blonde look, liven up your tresses with the NEW Nutrisse Cream Frost & Care highlighting kit. FYI, highlights do wonders for adding depth, dimension and movement to your hair.
BLONDE BEAUTY
Since natural blonde hair is, by nature, quite delicate and porous, it requires extra special care. That's why Nutrisse Cream haircolours contain avocado oil, which deeply nourishes your colour-treated tresses from the start. A few haircare secrets can keep your blonde locks as luminous as you are. Here are some tricks of the trade:
- Always use the conditioner that comes with your
Nutrisse Cream nourishing bleach or blonde shade.
This special conditioner helps close hair cuticles,
nourishes hair and helps preserve your new haircolour. - Reapply every 4-6 weeks to maintain a fresh,
luminous, healthy-looking blonde. - Chop, chop! Don’t forget to get your ends trimmed
regularly to add to the healthy look of your hair.
BLONDE ENEMIES
Eek, dryness! A blonde’s arch nemesis. Have no fear, though, a regular haircare regimen of products designed for colour-treated hair can keep the dryness far, far away. (For example, regular use of a hydrating masque like Garnier Fructis Color Resist will keep your blonde hair bouncy and vibrant.)
Protect yourself. Sunshine, saltwater and chlorine can dry out your hair, so protection is key! Garnier’s Fructis Color Resist shampoo and conditioner contain UV filters to keep those rays from damaging your blonde locks. To be extra safe, before heading into sun or surf, tie your hair up in a bun or get yourself a cute hat.
Beat the heat. Yet another culprit of hair damage is heat styling. That’s why all good blondes make sure their hair is completely dry before breaking out the flat iron. Why? Because damp hair expands beneath the iron's heat, resulting in damaged cuticles.
