染发前后正确养护方法
对于如何健康染发、如何正确护理、保养头发,你知道多少?
日前,世界权威皮肤专家、90岁高龄的Kligman博士来沪,在此帮助大家了解一些正确的染发护发知识。
染发频率2月为宜
染发次数不宜过于频繁,通常在一次染发后,当发根部分长出1-2厘米的新生头发时,就可以进行补染。这段时间通常为6-8周左右。这样,既能让头发的颜色保持均匀一致,又不至于染发过多。在染发前可以在发际线附近的皮肤涂上一层护肤品,目的是为了防止较深的颜色沾在皮肤上而不易清洗。也可以擦一些凡士林,万一沾上药水就容易洗掉。染完头发后,要彻底清洗头发不要让染发剂残留在头发上。洗头时,小心别用手指抓破头皮,以免引起过敏。
染发后的色彩一般可维持2个月,2个月后,色彩经过洗发、阳光和空气里的湿度等步骤后,就会产生自然氧化,由此会产生色素流失而导致发质变差。另外,头发每月以1-1.5厘米的速度在生长,从头发的生长速度来讲,续补染发的时间也应该为2个月。
Kligman博士尤其强调,染发前应先把染发剂擦在耳后皮肤上,如2天内没有异常反应方可染发。还要注意,不可将不同品牌的染发剂混合在一起使用,因为有可能发生化学反应。
洗头一周三次为宜
不少人习惯于每天起床后洗头洗澡,且使劲挠头,以为这样可以将头发洗得更干净。实际上这样极可能会破坏头部的毛囊结构。正确的洗头频率应是一周三次左右;每次只需少量洗发水即可,且短时间内一定要尽快冲洗掉。
同时,Kligman博士也提醒,年轻时皮肤护理将在10年、20年后看出效果来,因此年轻时要格外注意皮肤保养的问题。

头发透露你的健康状况
可知道由发黑、发淡、发浓、发稀等头发状况可以了解你身体的秘密吗?从头发不但透露了你的个性,也透露了你的健康状况。
发艺负责人张肇莞拥有三十年美发经验,接触过的发质与客人难以计数,加上他的个人修行,往往能从头发看出许多端倪。
依照经验:
1.发质“硬”的人多半个性刚烈、敏感度迟钝,在健康上比较容易有用脑过度、自律神经衰弱、头晕的现象。
2.头发“细软”的人,极为敏感,感性成分高,而且容易有湿疹与肠胃的毛病。
3.头发“毛躁”的人有情绪化的倾向。
4.“卷发”的人容易胡思乱想,如果是“又卷又硬”的发质,想得多也说得多,身体的肾脏也比较不好。
5.发质“软而卷”的,什么事都藏在心里,闷着不说出来,他们的消化系统相对较弱。
6.“直发”的人性格直接,正面思考也比较强。
一如想象的是头发的“长短”也与个性有关:
“长发”的人女性化的成分较浓,短发的人具有男命,比较像男人婆,而当健康情形不好时,最好头发也不要留太长(当然也不是太短),行动力才会增加,整个人显得比较有精神。
头发的“多寡”也相关性格,像是:
1.头发“多”的人,想得也多,想太多了还会有头痛的问题。
2.头发“少”的人则比较神经质,消化系统也较差。
至于“发色”也不可忽略:
“浅发”的人个性比较浮,“发色深”的人性格比较稳定。
由于每个人的头发都拥有多种特质,以至于很多人的性格都有不同的面向,还不时带有矛盾的成分。而个性最好的人,她的头发通常是不粗不细、软硬适中,发量刚好,还带有光泽。
发质与运势也有相对的关系,当发质变差的时候,运势往往也会转弱。
因此,张肇莞虽然是美发师,却不赞成过度的染烫伤害发质。好好照顾头发,并配合上心性的修持,运势必然顺遂。
虽然这仅是有此一说,但是用心照顾头发,经常留意发质的变化,不管从美容观点、健康立场,或是经验法则,显然都是不变的真理。
护发运动六招:
“正确的洗发方法”,不但使发质不易受损且洗得干净。
1.洗发前,先用发梳将头发仔细梳一遍,除了头皮的污垢外,喷在发上的定型液之类,百分之七十均可梳落。
2.上洗发精前,将浮在发上的污垢、灰尘先冲洗一遍。
3.由于先梳、洗过。所以上了洗发精后,不必用力抓洗。只要以指腹往头皮各处搓揉,至泡沫充分出来即可。
4.将洗发精的泡沫彻底冲洗干净。
5.以护发剂之类护发。
6.用干毛巾将头发夹住,轻轻压干即可。
