How to care for hair after bleaching
Bleach opens up the hair to lift out colour, which leaves it drier and more fragile than before. A few simple habits make a big difference to how it looks and feels in the weeks after.
At-home care
- Give it a little time before the first wash, so the colour can settle. Ask your stylist how long for your hair.
- Use a gentle, colour-safe shampoo and always follow with conditioner.
- Add a hair mask once a week to put moisture back.
- Rinse with cool or lukewarm water rather than hot.
- Cut down on heat styling, and use a heat protectant when you do blow-dry or iron.
- Detangle gently, starting from the ends, with a wide-tooth comb.
- Protect your hair from chlorine and strong sun, for example with a cap.
- Keep the ends trimmed so split ends do not travel up the hair.
If your blonde turns yellow or brassy
Lightened hair can pick up warm, yellow tones over time. A purple shampoo used occasionally can soften this at home; a toner in the salon gives a more even result. Ask us which suits the shade you want.
When to book an in-salon treatment
If your hair feels rough, tangles easily or breaks when you brush it, a salon treatment can help more than home care alone. These are the treatments clients with coloured or bleached hair usually ask about:
| Service | Time | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Japanese Repair Treatment | 60–90 min | from RM238 |
| Moisture Treatment | 45–60 min | from RM138 |
| Keratin Treatment | 2–3 hrs | from RM288 |

Quick answers
It depends on how much your hair was lightened and how it feels. A weekly mask at home is a good start; we can suggest a salon treatment rhythm after seeing your hair.
The Japanese Repair Treatment (from RM238) is designed to revive damaged hair. Tell us your colour and bleaching history so we can advise.
