It can also cause colour to fade. So, what can you do to combat this? The answer is to invest in tools that won’t damage your hair.

Pro tip: when drying your hair, be sure to use a paddle or round brush and angle your hair as well as the tool downwards when drying, in order to prevent frizz. You can also use a lightweight, non-greasy finihsing spray, such as the amika Top Gloss Hair Shine Spray. This will help give your hair the ultimate glossy finish. It also works to fight frizz, while keeping hair color vibrant.
