Most hair color treatments can affect the overall health of your hair, causing dry, brittle hair. But not all products are made the same. Color treatments infused with silk protein can help restore hair during the coloring process. This article will explore how this special color treatment works.
What Bleach Does To Your Hair
Bleaching is one of the most damaging treatments you can do to your hair. However, bleaching prepares the hair for color in a few different ways. From a color perspective, bleaching is a lot like priming a wall before painting. By taking out the existing color, your stylist has a blank canvas to apply color. Bleaching also exposes the cell membrane of the hair follicle by oxidizing it. This allows the color to be able to set within the hair. Unfortunately, this process also dries out the affected hair. This leads to more brittleness.
Restorative Care With Silk Protein Colors
Silk is known worldwide for its soft, smooth feel. Silk protein treatments help apply color while also acting as an oxidizing agent for the hair follicle. Not only does it skip the damaging effects of bleach, but it can also help moisturize and soften the follicles.
Silk Protein and Hair Softness
Silk treatments help strengthen the follicle as the color sets in. This can help reduce breakage down the line. With less brittleness and breakage, silk color treatments can leave hair softer and less prone to breakage. You may even notice a difference in hair softness and texture after treatment, especially when compared to more traditional color treatments.
Less Tangles or Frizz
Silk Protein treatments create smaller micro-breaks in the hair than bleaching or other traditional color treatments. This means hair catches on other follicles a lot less. Overall, this reduces the risk of frizz and tangles.
