Top Tips For Bleached/Silver Hair

As some of you may know, I jumped aboard the "granny" hair trend last November and my silver locks are still going strong. Bleaching your hair can be awfully damaging so here are my top tips for maintaining healthy hair.
Olaplex Although I haven't had this treatment myself I hear so many great things! Olaplex is used whilst bleaching the hair to help protect the hair from damage. You can get an Olaplex treatment in a salon that stocks the brand and you get step three to take home and use as a treatment. It helps repair the bonds in your hair and it is something I'm definitely interested in trying!
Coconut Oil If you are going silver at home (which I initially did too) coconut oil, - like Olaplex - will help protect the hair from damage. I tried this a few weeks ago when I re-bleached my whole head and it definitely helped lessen the damage!
Silver Shampoo This is an essential step for me and it'll work for bleach blondes too. Silver shampoo is an intense dark purple shade, purple counteracts yellow so it'll take the brassy tones out of the hair. If you leave it on for 5-10 minutes on white hair it'll give a gorgeous silvery/lilac shade. Bleach London Silver Shampoo is my favourite!
Toner Toner works the same as the silver shampoo, it'll give your hair intense nourishment and tone out the brassy parts. I love Jerome Russell's Silver Toner for this!
Hair Masks Damage is part of the process when having bleached/silver hair so hair masks will become your best friend. The best masks are the ones you put on before you wash your hair. I love a coconut masks once every few weeks. Weekly I use Bleach London Reincarnation Mask, this stuff is incredible! 
Less heat Obviously using less heat on your hair is going to help it! I need to take on this tip myself, my hair is always a mess when I wake up and I have to reach for the heat styling tools. Does anyone have any heat-free hairstyles that work?!
Cold water Same again with heat, but instead of having a boiling hot shower try and have the water as cold as you can stand. If you can't, make sure you use cool water after conditioning your hair as it will seal the cuticles and lock moisture in. So, there are my tips for bleached hair! If you have any tips please leave them in the comments as I would love for you to share. - Daniella

Neal & Wolf Harmony Intensive Care Shampoo and Conditioner | Review

As a grey-haired gal I find myself more into haircare than I ever have been. As you know bleaching really damages your hair and it needs more nourishment and care. Neal & Wolf's Harmony range is developed to repair damaged hair, leaving it shiny, soft and manageable. 
In the range there is the Intensive Care Shampoo* and Treatment*. Neal and Wolf's products are a salon range that are sulphate free, cruelty free, paraben free and so forth.
With the shampoo being free-from sulphates it doesn't lather but it does feel creamy when rubbing into the hair. When rinsed out it leaves the hair feeling clean and soft - as opposed to a shampoo with sulphates.
The standout from the range is the treatment. It's an intensive conditioner that you leave on for 3-5 minutes. It feels like a luxurious cream that wraps around every strand leaving the hair feeling soft, smooth and shiny. It really is amazing!  I definitely need to get myself the bigger size...
For me, haircare is something worth investing in and spending more than you would usually, especially because my hair is bleached.
I really recommend trying these products from Neal & Wolf as they're amazing!

Natural World Chia Seed Volume & Shine Hair Oil | Review

I’d never head of Natural World products until I came across them on Twitter and they offered to send me one of their latest products from the Chia Seed Oil Range.

The Chia Seed Oil Volume & Shine Hair Treatment Oil* promises volume and shine for fine hair for beautifully bouncy and fuller hair.

It’s a very fine oil, so much so I feel like I could douse my hair in the whole bottle and it still wouldn't be greasy – well that’s an over exaggeration but I’m sure you get my point.

The silkiness of the oil really smoothes out frizz and gives the hair volume and shine without weighing it down.

I use this oil after I have washed my hair on my damp hair. Sometimes I use it on my second day hair if I’m feeling a little frizzy.

It retails for £6.99 for 100ml of product. This oil has been a complete game changer for me and it leaves my hair feeling amazing. I highly recommend it!
