Before the shine bath, correct the hair roots
No shine bath will be perfect if your hair roots are already fading. Ideally, you should touch it up before performing the treatment . In general, the shine treatment fulfills the function of forming a protective film on the hair, which in turn is capable of correcting imperfections.
Tips to make a perfect shine treatment on your hair
Choose the right shade of color
If you prefer tinted or colored shine treatments, it is important that you choose the right shade for your hair. The preferred color bath is the colorless one that can be used on all hair, but if you do not have access to this type of product, use one with a similar tone to your hair color.
Use a skin protection cream
While the shine bath works, it can stain the skin. Therefore, it is recommended that you protect the region closest to the hair – forehead, temples, ears, neck – with a petroleum jelly cream .
Get an allergy test
This is good advice, especially for those who have never dyed their hair and don’t know if they will have a reaction to the products. According to dermatologists, the ideal is that “ we do not use the product in case of irritation , itching or sores on the scalp, or if we have an allergy to any component of the formula.”
Touch up roots before shine treatment
If you have natural or dyed hair a color similar to your natural shade, this will not be a problem. But if the natural color of your hair is very different from the color you are using, the ideal is to touch up the roots before the shine treatment, because the pigmentation strength of this product is not as much as that of the real hair color.
If you want advice on what color to choose, it is best to look at this complete guide on what hair color to choose depending on an infinity of factors, such as skin, eye color, hair type, etc.
Bet on moisturizing products
Regardless of the gloss treatment recipe you decide to use, it is essential that hydrating products are part of your treatment, for a more satisfactory result. Invest in a good hydrating mask , vitamin ampoules, hydrating oils, and liquid Bepanthol to boost the potential of the blend.

Color bath shine treatments
The bathrooms color change tone hair less aggressively, although some only improve brightness, increase the natural tone or return a color that already was fading. Instead of opening the cuticle and penetrating the hair, these products only involve a coating . Most do not contain chemicals such as ammonia, so they can be used without fear by those who have already undergone another chemical process or who have fragile hair, such as curly hair .
The shine bath with color wash can be the same tone as your hair or colorless, which are mixed with moisturizer. If you have hair dyed blonde, with highlights / highlights or lighter gray highlights, you can use this product to remove the yellowish tone. Look at the difference between permanent dye and color wash .
