ExplorePlatinum highlights are an authentic and laid-back way to lighten your hair. Unlike traditional golden lights, platinum highlights have cooler reflections and are the favorite of those who like to go out of the ordinary and bet on boldness. However, due to discoloration, hair with platinum highlights needs special day-to-day care. Otherwise, the locks can become dry, with split ends, dull and even sensitized, which can cause breakage.
For very fine and naturally drier hair, such as curly hair, skipping post-bleaching treatment steps can cause even deeper damage. Thinking about it, the stay diva prepared this article with some tips for taking care of different types of hair with platinum highlights. Write it down!
Restoration treatment is essential for hair with platinum highlights
Platinum platinum is a delicate process because it requires discoloration and a high level of lightening. After making the transformation and achieving platinum highlights, the hair can become sensitized and lacking in nutrients that are removed from the hair fiber after the discoloration process. Therefore, capillary reconstruction will be a very necessary treatment in the routine, because it replaces proteins and recovers the strength of the locks.
To do the reconstruction, the tip is to choose treatment masks rich in actives such as Whey Protein Vegetal, which acts in the recovery of damaged hair, and banana, which has strengthening and moisturizing properties.

Capillary schedule is allied with straight and curly divas with platinum locks
Reconstruction is important, but it is not the only treatment that hair with platinum highlights needs to stay healthy. To complement the reconstruction, it is necessary to include moisturizing and also nourishing the hair, since water and lipids are also nutrients that make up the hair fiber and need to be replenished in bleached hair.
Divas with straight and wavy hair, who often suffer from frizz and split ends, should invest in concentrated masks that provide hydration and intense nutrition without weighing it down, as this type of hair is also usually more oily. In the hydration phase, look for treatment masks with actives such as thermal water, while in terms of nutrition, it is worth investing in castor oil, which will help combat split ends and frizz, leaving your platinum blonde locks more aligned.
On the other hand, divas with curly and frizzy hair tend to have dry hair and may suffer from a lack of definition after bleaching to achieve platinum highlights. For those with this type of hair, the tip is to bet on nutrition rich in coconut oil, which is known for its moisturizing power and combating dryness. In hydration, coconut water and aloe vera extract are two active allies of hair with platinum highlights because they restore softness, shine and facilitate the detangling of curly and curly locks.

Tinting shampoo and thermal protectors help maintain the color of the platinum lock
A good tinting shampoo and a finisher with thermal protection are also products that should be at the top of your “platinum highlights hair care and products” list. And that goes for all hair types, see? Over time, blonde hair can stain or turn yellow. In the case of platinum lights, the yellowish aspect is even more visible.
To prevent this from happening and ruining your look, the tip is to invest in a tinting shampoo to neutralize the yellowish tone. This type of shampoo should be used, on average, once every ten days. In other washes, you can use a common or specific shampoo for colored hair.
Another thing that can affect the color of platinum streaked hair is heat, both from sunlight and hot tools like flat irons and curling irons. Therefore, if you usually straighten your hair mechanically or have curly hair, but intend to invest in platinum highlights during the summer, be sure to use an oil or leave-in with thermal protection to protect the locks.
