Using bleach lightens your hair color and can help you achieve the desired look. However, many of us don’t realize the dangers it poses to our hair. Bleaching involves removal of melanin, which is the pigment responsible for hair colour.
It also raises your hair cuticles permanently, thereby making the hair drier and brittle. Continued hair bleaching can make your hair lifeless and chemically damaged.
So let’s take a look at what hair bleach actually is, how it works
and how it damages your hair.
We’re also gonna serve up some detailed tips on how to take care of hair damaged due to bleaching and chemical exposure.
And you know how I love homemade remedies so we’re gonna be showing you how to repair damaged hair with some of my favourite homemade remedies!
What is Hair Bleach?
Hair bleach is a chemical which helps to clean and change your hair tone.
The basic purpose of using a hair bleach is to lighten your hair colour.
The main ingredient of hair bleach is hydrogen peroxide, which is also known as bleaching liquid.
Hair bleaches also contain some catalysts or boosters which can activate the hydrogen peroxide and speed up the bleaching process.
Generally, chemicals like ammonium persulfate or potassium persulfate are used as boosters for activating hydrogen peroxide. These chemicals work in an alkaline solution which keeps the pH of the formula at nearly 11.
So let’s talk about how bleach works - as this gives us an insight into how it damages our hair!
How Hair Bleach Works:
The hair colour in any individual is determined by a pigment named melanin. Usually, the greater the melanin content in your hair, the darker it will be.
The same pigment also determines the color of your skin and eyes.
Hence, if there is no melanin left in your hair, it will turn completely white.
When you apply bleach on your hair, it works on and softens the cuticles.
It breaks down the disulfide bonds and melanin through oxidation process. The broken-down color molecules are colorless and look pale.
The part of the hair which was bleached will then lose its color and take the color of the bleach. This is an irreversible process.
Depending upon your hair thickness, coarseness, and how much you need to lighten it, it takes nearly 15-40 minutes to bleach your hair.
Does Bleaching Damage Your Hair?
While bleaching your hair can look like a fashionable fix, it does come with harmful side-effects too.
When you bleach your hair, the bleaching process not only breaks down the -melanin, it also breaks down the fatty acids on the hair shaft.
This can make your hair very dry and brittle.
You can experience over-bleached or fried hair due to frequent bleaching.
The hair cuticle is also permanently raised by bleaching which results in rapid and continuous loss of moisture from the hair.
Bleached hair is porous, dry, and brittle. You can experience continued problems of split-ends and hair breakage if you bleach your hair too often.
Bleaching can also cause hair loss directly if you have a chemical mishap - for example, you leave the bleach on your scalp for too long - so do be really, really careful.
How to Repair Hair Damaged by Bleaching
Once the hair is damaged by bleaching and chemical exposure, you need to be really really careful with it
