My Ombre Haircare Routine

Around October of this year i decided to take a leap of faith with my hairdresser and go Ombre. Recently this trend has been spreading a lot more than it has been in the past and it makes me think that everyone else who was a newbie to this hairstyle also had not even one clue on how to take care of it. My routine i must say was definitely built off of trial and error, though it worked out in the end quite well !

I honestly loved my ombre so much, for a couple weeks i walked around acting like i was top shit because i thought my hair looked the best out of everyones. As time went on i still loved it but wasn't so crazy over it anymore, it faded out of the main topic of conversation yet it was still a love of mine. Nearing the end of the last school year my mister started pointing out how many girls " had copied my hair style". He was aware that i wasn't original with this style, but he liked to think so. Oh my mister.

When i first bleached my hair i was very sad, i noticed an immediate decrease in the quality and health of my ends, and realized it needed a lot more work than normal to keep it healthy. These were a few of the things i did to keep my hair looking and feeling healthy

1. Blonde Shampoo and Conditioner - Any brand will work, i used the type once or twice a week to focus on the blonde parts of the hair, though my whole head wasn't blonde i noticed immediate improvement in the areas that were
2. Hair Masks - I swear by these, if you want to keep your hair as healthy as it can possibly get use masks. I personally purchased mine from lush, this is the one i used, and found it worked amazingly. I wasn't feeling so bad styling my hair because i knew i was going to give it a nice treat later in the week. This mask was also once tried on mister, ( which he would never admit happened) but he said that he noticed a difference in his hair, and this is coming from a guy the stuff has to be good !
3. Air Drying- If you are as picky with your hair as i am this is a difficult point, whenever i could i would avoid using any heat at all on my hair, no blowdryer, no flat iron, no curling iron nothing. I hated the thought that every time i styled my hair i was just damaging it more. So hold back on the styling, your hair is beautiful in it's natural state.

Overall i think i took very good care of my hair, when i went into the hair dresser's today to get rid of it ( sad i know ) she told me my hair was in amazing condition. So even the professionals think this works well ! All in all, you don't have to do hours upon hours of work. Just put in one extra conditioning in the week, and your good to go.
