How to remove chlorine from hair

To remove chlorine from your hair, you need a deep cleansing shampoo.

The Touch Of Silver Clarifying Treatment Shampoo is your saviour from chlorinated hair. It works to neutralise chlorine straight away and will help to banish this chemical from the hair if left on for up to ten minutes. With hydrating AquaPlex™ and salicylic acid, it also nourishes your hair and scalp for a truly pampering experience.

If you’re treating your hair in the summer, follow the clarifying treatment with our Toning Treatment Mask as oxidation from the sun can cause hair to turn brassy. The salon-strength violet pigment in our Toning Treatment Mask will neutralise any yellow tones.

DIRECTIONS

 STEP 1

Wash your hair with the Touch of Silver Colour Care Shampoo to gently cleanse, boost shine and protect your hair against environmental pollution.

STEP 2

After shampooing, follow with the GO: PINK TEMPORARY HAIR COLOUR MASK. Massage into wet hair from roots to ends ensuring even coverage. Leave in for 5 minutes or longer for a more intense pink colour result. Rinse thoroughly until water runs clear.

STEP 3

Dry your hair as you usually do.

STEP 4

Brush hair and part into four manageable sections, splitting hair in half by your natural parting and then again half way up the head.

STEP 5

Choose a curling tong for the desired look you want to create – we used one with a thicker barrel to achieve these smooth sleek mermaid waves.

STEP 6

Then take thick 1-inch sections of your hair and start curling your hair by facing the tong downwards and wrapping your hair around the barrel away from your face.

STEP 7

Once curled, leave each section in its ringlet and work your way throughout the sections of your hair until all the hair has been curled.

STEP 8

Wait for your hair to cool and then gently run your fingers through your hair to loosen the ringlets until you create loose mermaid waves.

Ta-da! Now why not share a photo of your mesmerising mermaid look? #PROVOKEAREACTION

WHAT IS KERATIN AND WHY SHOULD YOU BE USING IT ON YOUR HAIR?

You have protein in your diet, but did you know you also have it in your hair? Our PRO:VOKE Touch Of Silver Intensive Conditioner contains a restorative protein called keratin, and here’s how it works to get your hair looking its very best.

WHAT IS KERATIN?

Keratin is a fibrous protein which makes up the main structure of your hair, skin and nails. It accounts for 65% – 95% of your hair, protecting the cuticle and interior structure of the strand’s cortex and repairing any damage that occurs.

Keratin is found naturally in your body. However, it can be easily destroyed by heat, chemicals, and pollution.  Lots of people choose to replenish this with keratin-based hair products and treatments to make sure the health and appearance of their hair is the best it can be.

HOW WILL A KERATIN HAIR TREATMENT HELP MY LOCKS?

As keratin is a protective protein it can help to strengthen your hair and make it look shinier and healthier. Keratin forms a protective barrier around your hair, restoring the cuticle and helping it to retain moisture – reducing dry damage and boosting shine.

This is super important in summer months where UV protection is a must to protect your hair from sun exposure, or if you frequently use heat styling tools. Keratin will help keep your healthy shine and you’ll see fewer split ends forming, so you can say goodbye to frizz!

In fact, it can improve the overall quality of your hair by filling gaps that come with prolonged hair damage.

Some keratin treatments also relax and neutralise your hair while conditioning it, which will leave you with smoother, straighter locks that are easier to tame.

DOES KERATIN WORK BETTER ON CERTAIN HAIR TYPES?

Different hair types have different levels of naturally occurring keratin. Curly or frizzy hair will have less keratin than naturally straight tresses, as will chemically treated hair (if it’s been dyed or permed). These types will see the biggest benefits of a keratin hair treatment.
