Want to renew the look of your hair without having to go through radical changes? Is the shine bath one of the best alternatives to give the hair the shine and healthy look, as well as reactivate the color? be it natural or not.
Brightening Bath - enhances the natural color of hair that has never been previously colored, intensifies the coloring of previously dyed, opaque hair, tones from root to tip, helps to recover chemically damaged hair, treats and colors faded, bleached hair brilliance ?, says Juliana Spektor, a dermatologist specializing in hair medicine at the Helena Costa Clinic in Rio de Janeiro.
In addition, the technique has no contraindications and can be repeated frequently. The process can be performed whenever the wires are opaque, devitalized and dull. Usually we can do it biweekly, since the shine bath lasts up to eight washes ?, comments Juliana.
The procedure is inexpensive and can be performed both professionally, in the vast majority of salons, and at home, and can be a great lifesaver for those with dyed yarn.

5 Tips for a Perfect Shine Bath
1. Choose the right shade of coloring
If you prefer to shine with color or toning, it is important to choose the right shade for your hair. The most suitable is the colorless toner that can be used on all hair. But if you don't have access to this product, always use a shade above your hair color? Advises hairstylist Ronald Piffano.
2. Use a skin protection cream
Just like coloring, the glow bath can end up staining the skin. Therefore, the most recommended is that the region closest to the hair? forehead, temples, ears, nape? protected with a Vaseline cream.
3. Watch out for allergies
This is a good tip especially for those who have never dyed their hair and do not know what the reaction to products will look like: watch out for allergic reactions. According to dermatologist Juliana Spektor, the ideal is not to use the product in case of irritation, itching or scalp sores, or if you are allergic to any component of the formula.
4. Fix root before shine bath
For those who have natural hair or color their hair to a shade close to natural color, this will not be a problem. But if the natural color of your hair is very different from the color you are using, it is best to have the root retouched before the shine bath, as the technique's pigment power is not as high as the color itself. .
5. Bet on moisturizers
Regardless of the shine bath recipe you choose to follow, it is essential that moisturizing products are not forgotten for the most satisfying result. Invest in a good moisturizing mask, vitamin ampoules, moisturizing oils and liquid Bepantol to turbocharge the mixture.
