AFTER HAIR BLEACH CARE

Posted by Manny Y on 6th Apr 2015

What is hair bleaching? This involves removing the pigment from the hair strands , called decolorizing or sometimes ‘hair lightening’.This involves the use of chemicals such as hydrogen peroxide and ammonium hydroxide. Melanin which is responsible your hair colour is chemically stripped out. Your hair will become yellowish because this is the natural colour of keratin, the protein that makes up the hair. The peroxide also raises the hair cuticle, making the strand more porous.

People bleach their hair for different reasons. These include wanting to change dark hair to a much lighter shade, adding highlights, or wanting to have that sheer blonde look or stark white locks. Bleaching makes the hair easier to dye since the hair strand becomes lighter and also more absorbent to hair colourants.

However, hair bleaching does have its perils. The hair strand, as well as the hair follicles may be damaged by the chemical process. You will notice that the hair has lost its shine and will weather and prone to breakage.

The bleach is meant only for the hair strand , so if some of it has reached your scalp during the process, this can definitely cause chemical burns. You will feel this as irritation and you will eventually see scabbing. This could kill the hair follicles leading the hair to fall out.In extreme cases, the injury can show as patchy baldness on certain areas. It could takesome time to grow back your hair and you may even have permanent bald spots if this has caused scarring of the scalp.

On the other hand, continuous exposure to peroxides can also cause extreme hair fall. Long term use of hair bleaches can make your hair brittle, coarse, and prone to split ends, hair thinning and hair fall.

To minimise the damages of hair bleaching, it is best to have it done professionally. It is also not recommended to bleach the hair regularly as even the most diluted peroxide bleaching solution will leave some degree of hair damage.
