Are you ready to go bright red, violet or purple? If so, there are a few tips we want to share. Because red is the largest color molecule, it’s the hardest color to keep and ironically the hardest to get rid of. But have no fear because we have experienced for ourselves the maintenance that comes with high fashion color.
THE MAINTINANCE
If you decide to go vibrant, please be open to visiting Be Inspired Salon for a Glaze Color Service every four weeks. A Glaze is a semi-permanent hair color that is extremely reparative and will add a ton of shine to your hair, while bringing it back to the vibrancy from your first visit. This appointment on its own is just 45 minutes.
Along with the in-salon maintenance, you’ll have some at-home upkeep. You will need to invest in a shampoo/cleanser + conditioner that has a low pH. Meaning, its pH range is lower than 5.5. Don’t worry if the science jargon is over-the-top. We have the best haircare products to recommend.

YOU CAN DO IT!
Your color will last longer if you get it wet less often. We’ve talked about the pH scale. Water is 7 on the pH scale and compared to your hair, skin & nails it’s alkaline. So not only is it important to avoid getting your hair wet, it’s also important to blow dry your hair soon after you’re done showering. The longer your hair has water in it, the easier it is for your hair to fade.
Thankfully they make amazing dry shampoo products to help us in-between cleansing. And blow dryers are genius tools today! They are made with such technology to keep your hair healthy while taking a lot less time to dry. We recommend BIO IONIC blow dryers. These are what we use behind the chair! They’re simply the best. You can purchase your new dryer at Be Inspired Salon!
Think of it this way. If you never worked out and finally started a new fitness routine, at first it would take some getting used to. Have a high fashion hair color comes with the same upkeep and same fabulous results. You’ll look bold & beautiful!
