~Color Tips for Curlies~



I was just cruising Latina Mag online and came across this curly hair article discussing coloring tips for the summer. Here are the highlights! (no pun intended :)

With the summer months upon us, you might be thinking about lightening your hair. Some Latina.com readers expressed their hesitation over getting highlights because they fear damaging their curls. I asked curly hair expert Ouidad to fill us in on this topic. Here are some of her tips:

Pre-Color "It’s important to use a deep conditioner on a regular basis to add moisture to the hair shaft."

Coloring "Highlights on curly hair should be done in fatter sections, as opposed to the finer applications used on straight hair."

Post-Color
"Shampoo less often and continue to condition hair regularly to allow color to hold longer.
