Afternoon beauty fix: Repairing ultra-bleached hair is possible!
My Debbie Harry–esque blonde bob sure looks cool, but it’s starting to feel and look unhealthy. Is there anything I can do to start the repair?
Under a microscope, your bleached hair would appear as porous as Swiss cheese and as delicious as that might sound, the effect is far less appealing. As sad as it is to admit, über-blonde can only be achieved at the expense of your hair’s natural oils and pigments, leaving it damaged and vulnerable to breakage. By pumping empty pores full of substitute oils and other reparative ingredients, you can salvage dry locks and get a little swing back in your ponytail. PERFECT4PLATINUM by Pureology is a line of hair-care products designed specifically for blondes with four-plus levels of lift. We recommend using their blow-dry spray, Miracle Filler ($28, at Pureology salons, pureology.com/locator), on a daily basis because it will gradually build your hair’s strength and shine with Keravis to fill in pores, and it also has coriander for much-needed moisture.
