One of the problems of long hair is weak ends and breakages; this has limited women greatly when it comes to having longer hair. Now that longer hair is in vogue, it is a serious struggle because the hair ends tends to get so weak you have to go for a trim every other day. Continuous trimming of your hair ends does not stop the new hair ends from being weak. The hair ends of the hair are the oldest part of your hair, so when you cut the oldest part because it is too weak another part because the oldest and it becomes weak also meaning you have to trim again. If you keep trimming the hair so much, it would be very hard to have the long hair you so desire.

 

There is a general belief that to make your hair ends stronger; you need to stay away from hair coloring, thereby restricting your hair choices. But when you use Argan oil for hair coloring you can have both worlds. You get both your desired hair color, also longer and stronger hair ends.

 

2. A more animated color                 

 

Sometimes two people can decide to get a new hair color, say red for instance and when they meet up one gets a more animated red coloring than the other. It is simply because the hair conditions are very different. When Argan oil is used for hair coloring, it helps the color molecules spread out evenly all through the hair cuticles, unlike when you decide to use just your regular hair color.

 

The addition of Argan oil during hair coloring makes the hair color richer and more animated.

 

3. Shinier hair                 

 

Argan oil does not only help in the process of hair coloring alone, but it also maintains the hair color. The oil used for hair coloring closes the hair cuticles and during coloring process so that the hair can keep being animated and shiny no matter what it goes through.

 

Even after you wash your hair, blow dry and brush it, the color remains as animated as the first time.

 

4. Restores fragile hair

 

Argan oil helps to restore fragile hair during hair coloring. When your hair is being relaxed in preparation for hair coloring, you find that the hair becomes a little fragile. But when Argan oil is used for the hair coloring, it enters the cortex of the hair and makes the hair less brittle by giving a plump from within.

 

5. A more even coloring                 

 

Argan oil helps in giving your hair a more even coloring because it strengthens the hair shaft from within and makes the coloring process smooth and effortless. The natural pigments are lightened at a more consistent rate, and re-pigmentation also takes place at a consistent rate. Due to this, you get a very even hair color, which is consistent with the hair roots to the hair ends.

 

Without the use of Argan oil for hair coloring you start seeing results of inconsistent hair coloring. The hair roots would be a color, and the hair ends another because the hair shaft is not strengthened from within during the coloring process.

 

6. Softer hair                 

 

There are so many cases where the hair becomes really rough after hair coloring, making the hair unattractive and sometimes even discouraging you from trying that particular hair color, without even giving it a try.

 

But an advisable tip when you want to give any hair color a try, mix it with Argan oil or better still try Argan oil-based hair color. The oil enters into the hair cortex during the hair coloring and makes the hair come out looking and feeling soft, smooth and silky after the whole process. It hydrates your hair which prevents it from being rough and frizzled.
