Everything You'll Ever Need to Know About Going Platinum Blond

There are also things you should absolutely avoid, like hot tools (blow dryer, curling iron, and straightening iron). Similar to hot water, the heat from these tools will break the bonds in your hair and counteract all your maintenance efforts to restrengthen it. If you need to style your hair, use the blow dryer on medium heat with a natural bristle brush, which is gentler. Also, try to avoid using hair bands because any object touching your hair will contribute to agitating it. Instead, tie it up with a soft ribbon or just leave your new mane free flowing!
