How to take care of your hair after dying it?
"When caring for coloured/bleached hair, it is important to remember that after peroxide has done its thing your hair will be lacking in protein and the cuticle will be raised. So it is important that you bring a protein rich shampoo and conditioner into your hair routine, and keep the hair light by occasionally using a toning product." Phillip
"After dying your hair, make sure you do intense conditioning / hydrating treatments at least once a week!" Talitha
