In reply to Ann Joseph. You can try coconut oil. Use it like a hair conditioner . Try leaving it in for at least an hour.

Hi Jen,

Thank you so much for your hair and skin care tips. I tried your whitening body scrub and I love the way my skin feels now.

However, I need your help with my fried hair too. I have dyed my originally jet black hair brown. Not completely but just streaks. My hair was bleached in the process to make the light color stand out with the black hair. Now the bleached hair is fried and completely damaged. I generally don’t use hair dryer and straightener on a daily basis. So after I brush my hair I can see parts of my hair curled up on the top of my head or at the beginning of my hair line(my hair is naturally straight). We don’t get the Infusium 23 leave-in treatment in the country I live in. Can you please suggest any other product or method that I can use?

Thanks
Ann

Hi,
Don’t cut your bleached hair!
You might want to try olive oil for a deeper moisture. It’s more fatty than coconut oil.
Also… something I just discovered for women that want to bleach their hair for dying pretty pops of color like pink, or unicorn hair.I found these high quality synthetic wigs you can wear instead: https://www.bellamihair.com/collections/nikita-dragun-synthetic-wigs They’re stunning.

Hi, I recently decided to go back to my “normal” fun colors. I bleached my hair, and then used Manic Panic “Ultraviolet”. I could tell immediately after the bleach that my hair was fried. My color was vibrant and rich, for about 4 days. I wanted to get my hair looking less frizzy, so I put coconut oil on with a shower cap for about 3 hours. I washed it out, and followed it with conditioner, and also used a leave in conditioner. It felt soft, until it air dried. Then poof, frizzy hair. Also, I noticed after the treatment, my color drastically faded. I couldn’t tell if it was the dye, or the treatment that caused the color to fade. I waited for it to fade out as much as possible, and decided to try a different brand of color. I ordered from Arctic Fox, a nice pink color, but I’m worried that doing another treatment is going to fade out my new color. What’s worse is that my hair is thin AND fine, so the frizz is that much worse. Any ideas? I’m even thinking about cutting most of it off, and starting over.

Hi Morgan,
For dealing with dry brittle bleached hair, the best remedy is avoiding shampoo for a good week. Let your hair become moisturized again.

Hi,
I had quite thick hair growing up but ive bleached my hair countless of times!
When i wash or brush it, about 10-15 strands come out and my hair has thinned out.
What can i do to thicken my hair? Is there anyway to save it as my hair grows slow too?
Do you reccommend anything? I dont want to be bald before i even turn 20! Hehe
