Water Build-Up: Ashley + Hector's 5 Simple Steps To Help Prevent + Treat It
Build-up from water can lead to hair damage, causing issues with dryness and breakage, which impacts your hair color over time. On the simplest level, tap water picks up excess minerals on its route to our homes. It’s this excess mineral content that latches on to the cuticle and scalp, and forms a “hard,” calcified layer. Over time, this build-up, combined with excess chemicals and heavy metals in our water, diminishes hair health. The result?  Hair that feels brittle, appears dull, and is prone to split ends. When it comes to chemically treated hair color, water build-up causes the color to oxidize and face more rapidly. Luckily, one of our balayage specialists, Ashley Pineda, and one of our stylists, Hector Garcia, shared their 5 Simple Steps to Help prevent and treat mineral-build up in the hair.
