From Root to Ritual
You color your hair. Here is what that means for the ritual — and what nobody at the salon told you about what happens to the strand between appointments.
Most of the content in this blog has been written with the
assumption that the hair being cared for is in its natural state.
A significant proportion of you color your hair. The color
changes what the hair needs between appointments — its porosity
profile, its moisture retention, its response to the ritual —
in ways that the standard hair care conversation rarely addresses
honestly. This editorial fills that gap: what color actually
does to the strand, how the damage profile differs between
permanent, demi-permanent, and bleach, what bond building is
and whether it matters, and how the Fertile Roots ritual adapts
for hair that has been through a color service.
