Shakira, Luiza Possi and more celebrities who rocked red hair –

The year started hot, with almost all bets on reddish tones à la Marina Ruy Barbosa. For those who weren’t born redheads like the actress, the solution is to resort to chemistry – but not without first looking for a good professional. Your colorist is the best person to point out the best alternatives for changing strands without harming the hair fiber so much, especially if your hair has already gone through another chemical process.

“When talking about tincture, you always have to think about the least aggressive option”, recalls dermatologist Carla Vidal from São Paulo. It is the case of toners, which do not have hydrogen peroxide and ammonia, but usually require greater care because they have less durability. “With washing, the product detaches from the cuticles, causing the color to fade quickly”, explains Carla. Permanent coloring, on the other hand, acts directly within the hair fiber, changing the hair color in a more lasting way – but also destroying the strands more quickly.

Hydrate and protecting wires during excessive sun exposure help keep capillary health up to date. And month-to-month touch-ups are mandatory to keep the look always looking like the day you leave the salon.
