How to care for dyed hair – 7 rules that will save your color and shine

Dyed hair is not only a new color and a fresh look - it also means new care needs. Coloring, especially chemical coloring, weakens the hair structure, exposing it to dryness, loss of shine and brittleness. If you want to enjoy a beautiful color for as long as possible, it is worth taking care of your hair consciously and comprehensively. In this post, we will tell you how to effectively care for dyed strands with the help of natural, trichological cosmetics from the Lychee series by Orientana . You only need four cosmetics! DYED HAIR requires Gentle cleansing Shampoo really does matter. After colouring, hair often becomes more sensitive, loses its natural resistance and can be prone to drying out. That is why choosing the right shampoo becomes crucial in daily care. Ordinary, strongly cleansing products can be too aggressive on delicate strands and wash out the pigment from the hair. That is why it is worth reaching for a shampoo that not only effectively cleanses, but also acts gently on the scalp and the hair itself. The moisturizing trichological shampoo Lychee from Orientana is based on natural ingredients such as ectoine, enzymes and prebiotics. Thanks to them, it not only cleanses the hair of excess sebum and impurities, but also soothes the scalp and protects the freshly applied color. Its moisturizing effect helps maintain an optimal level of moisture in the hair structure, which is especially important for strands exposed to chemical treatments. You don't have to wash your hair every day. In the case of colored locks, it is enough to do it every 2-3 days to avoid excessive drying. It is also worth avoiding vigorous rubbing with a towel - instead, it is better to gently squeeze out the water with a soft microfiber towel. 2. Deep hydration and regeneration – your care base Hair quickly loses its elasticity and resilience after colouring. With the loss of natural lipids, its structure becomes porous, and therefore more susceptible to breakage and frizz. That is why the use of conditioners and masks with regenerative effects is an essential element of care. The Lychee trichological mask-conditioner from Orientana is a cosmetic that, thanks to the presence of the advanced FiberHance™ bm solution complex, effectively rebuilds the internal structure of the hair. Additionally, tsubaki oil gives the strands softness and shine, and pracaxi oil has a nourishing and smoothing effect. Regular use of this mask, not only as a treatment once a week, but also as a conditioner after each wash, allows you to significantly improve the condition of your hair. Hair becomes elastic, smoother and more resistant to breakage. Thanks to intensive moisturization, the locks regain a healthy look, are easier to comb and beautifully styled. 3. Strengthening and stimulating growth – because healthy bulbs = strong hair Dyeing affects not only the hair shaft, but also the scalp and bulbs. A well-nourished scalp is the foundation of healthy and strong hair. For this purpose, it is worth including a lotion in your care, which stimulates microcirculation and supports the growth of new, strong strands. Orientana Lychee trichological lotion is a cosmetic that works comprehensively - thanks to the content of arginine, Baicapil™ extract and sodium lactate, it supports blood circulation in the scalp, which in turn stimulates hair follicles to work. Hair bulbs become better nourished, and therefore healthier and more active. The effect? ​​Less hair loss and faster growth. It is best to apply the lotion in the evening – after washing or on dry scalp – and massage your hair with your fingertips for a few minutes. This will not only improve the absorption of active ingredients, but will also relax and stimulate the skin to regenerate. 4. Protection against external factors – sun, wind and styling Colored hair is particularly vulnerable to UV radiation, wind, urban pollution and everyday mechanical damage. To maintain the intensity of the color and the healthy appearance of the hair, it is necessary to protect it properly. The smoothing serum from the Lychee series by Orientana is a product that creates an invisible, light protective layer on the hair surface. Gluconolactone and lactic acid smooth the hair structure, facilitate combing and reduce the risk of breakage. Importantly, the serum can be used both on damp hair after washing, and on dry hair - as the last stage of styling. Regular use of protective cosmetics helps not only to maintain the colour, but also to limit the impact of harmful external factors, thanks to which the hair remains healthy and shiny for longer. 5. Limit high temperatures – heat = loss of color A hair dryer, a straightener, a curling iron – all of these devices emit high temperatures that can be fatal to colored hair. High temperatures open the hair cuticles, which causes the pigment to wash out faster, and the hair itself becomes dry and dull. That's why it's worth limiting heat styling to a minimum. Instead of hot air, choose cool or lukewarm air, which will also dry your hair well without damaging its structure. If you reach for a straightener or curling iron, remember about thermal protection - Lychee serum will work perfectly in this role. It's also worth testing alternatives: rollers, overnight braids or headband styling will allow you to achieve beautiful waves without heat. Your hair will certainly appreciate it - it will be more flexible, less brittle and will retain its color for longer. 6. Take care of your color – everyday pigment protection Hair color doesn't fade just because of the sun. It's also affected by everyday habits: too hot water when washing, chlorine from the pool, air pollution or using too strong shampoos. All of this leads to a gradual loss of color intensity. To prevent this, it is worth washing your hair in lukewarm water and - if possible - using boiled or filtered water for the final rinse. Products from the Lychee series are free from SLS and SLES, so they do not wash out the color, while at the same time effectively caring. In the summer, it is good to have a hat or scarf with you - they not only protect the head from overheating, but also provide a barrier to UV rays, which are the enemy of permanent color. 7. Regular cuts and professional support Dyed hair, especially at the ends, tends to dry out and split. Even the best-cared-for locks will not avoid the need for regular trimming. By trimming the ends every 6-8 weeks, you will not only maintain the aesthetics of your hairstyle, but also prevent further damage to the hair structure. Don't be afraid of visiting a hair salon either - professional regenerating treatments, such as keratin reconstructions, nourishing ampoules or steam saunas, can significantly improve the condition of your hair without damaging the color. A combination of conscious home care with occasional support from a hairdresser is a recipe for lasting color and healthy, shiny strands. Summary – natural care is the best investment Daily care of dyed hair requires attention and conscious choices. Instead of experimenting with random products, it is worth trusting proven solutions - such as the Trycho Lychee series from Orientana. Thanks to natural ingredients, effective formulas and gentle action, these cosmetics allow not only to take care of the durability of the color, but above all to rebuild the structure of the hair and support a healthy scalp. Well-chosen care is not a luxury – it is daily care that pays off with healthy, beautiful and shiny hair. If you love your color, let it stay with you as long as possible – with the help of Orientana.

Wcierka na porost włosów – naturalny sposób na mocniejsze, gęstsze włosy

Czym jest wcierka na porost włosów? Wcierka do skóry głowy to lekki kosmetyk, który działa u podstaw – czyli tam, gdzie zaczyna się życie włosa. Aplikuje się ją bezpośrednio na skalp, aby pobudzić cebulki włosowe, zahamować wypadanie i przyspieszyć wzrost nowych, zdrowych włosów. To nie tylko modny trend, ale realne wsparcie dla osłabionej fryzury. W szczególności naturalna wcierka na porost włosów cieszy się coraz większą popularnością, bo łączy skuteczność działania z łagodnością dla skóry głowy. Jak działa wcierka do skóry głowy? Wcierka działa bezpośrednio u źródła – czyli w mieszku włosowym. Dzięki skoncentrowanym składnikom aktywnym: pobudza mikrokrążenie, dostarcza składników odżywczych, redukuje stany zapalne i podrażnienia, nawilża skalp, ogranicza wypadanie i stymuluje porost. Dodatkowym atutem jest to, że wcierka nie obciąża włosów ani nie zostawia tłustego filmu – to idealne rozwiązanie nawet przy cienkich, delikatnych pasmach. Składniki aktywne wspierające porost włosów Wcierki mogą mieć bardzo zróżnicowany skład, ale najlepsze efekty daje połączenie roślinnych ekstraktów i składników biotechnologicznych. Oto najczęściej spotykane i najlepiej przebadane: Biotyna (wit. B7) – wspiera metabolizm skóry głowy, wzmacnia cebulki, przeciwdziała łamliwości. Kofeina – stymuluje mikrokrążenie, pobudza cebulki do działania. „Badania wykazały, że kofeina przedłuża fazę anagenu (wzrostu) włosa poprzez hamowanie działania DHT, hormonu odpowiedzialnego za miniaturyzację mieszków włosowych.”(Fischer et al., International Journal of Dermatology, 2007) Skrzyp polny – naturalne źródło krzemu, wzmacnia strukturę włosa. Kozieradka – bogata w fitosterole, skutecznie hamuje wypadanie włosów. Ekstrakt z chinowca (chinina) – silny stymulant porostu. Arginina – wspiera krążenie w skóry głowy i pobudza włosy do wzrosu Olejek rozmarynowy – działa przeciwzapalnie i pobudza wzrost włosów. Olejek rozmarynowy stosowany przez 6 miesięcy wykazywał skuteczność porównywalną z 2% roztworem minoksydylu w leczeniu łysienia androgenowego.”(Panahi et al., SKINmed Journal, 2015) Niektóre wcierki zawierają również D-pantenol i alantoinę, które nawilżają, koją i wzmacniają barierę hydrolipidową skóry głowy. Ajurwedyjska wcierka do włosów – siła tradycji i natury Coraz większym zainteresowaniem cieszy się ajurwedyjska wcierka na porost włosów, inspirowana tradycyjną medycyną indyjską. W jej składzie znajdziemy: Amla – hamuje siwienie, pobudza wzrost, poprawia pigmentację włosów. Ekstrakt z owoców amli wykazuje działanie antyoksydacyjne, wspomaga proliferację komórek skóry właściwej oraz wzmacnia strukturę włosa.(Asghar et al., Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2017) Bhringraj – '"król włosów” w Ajurwedzie; wzmacnia cebulki i ogranicza wypadanie. W badaniach in vivo Bhringraj wykazał wyraźne działanie stymulujące wzrost włosów, porównywalne z minoksydylem.(Roy et al., Archives of Dermatological Research, 2008) Neem – oczyszcza, działa przeciwzapalnie i regulująco na przetłuszczanie się skóry. Tulsi, Brahmi, Shikakai – łagodzą stany zapalne, nawilżają i wspomagają regenerację. Tego rodzaju produkty są wolne od alkoholu, silikonów i sztucznych substancji – idealne dla osób szukających naturalnych wcierających kosmetyków do włosów. Zobacz naszą wcierkę ajurwedyjską Orientana: Trychologiczna wcierka do włosów - Trycho Liczi To specjalistyczna wcierka pielęgnacyjna skoncentrowana na stymulowaniu porostu włosów, działająca bezpośrednio u nasady — tam, gdzie włosowemu wzrostowi może zaszkodzić osłabiona skóra głowy. Już po pierwszym użyciu skóra głowy staje się odświeżona i nawilżona, włosy uniesione, pełne blasku i sprężyste przy nasadzie, bez uczucia obciążenia. Kluczowe składniki aktywne Ekstrakt z liczi – bogaty w witaminę C, witaminy z grupy B, minerały i przeciwutleniacze, działa przeciwzapalnie i poprawia mikrokrążenie, wspomagając regenerację skóry głowy i wzmacniając włosy Kompleks Baicapil™ (tarczyca bajkalska, kiełki pszenicy i soi) – aktywuje komórki macierzyste mieszków włosowych, zwiększa energię komórkową, znacząco ogranicza wypadanie włosów i zwiększa ich gęstość Arginina – aminokwas naturalny z keratyny, wzmacnia włosy, poprawia ukrwienie skóry głowy i wspiera szybszy wzrost włosów  Kwas mlekowy i mleczan sodu – delikatnie złuszczają, nawilżają i oczyszczają skalp, poprawiają strukturę skóry i ułatwiają wchłanianie substancji aktywnych Ekstrakt z drzewa chinowego, fermentowane probiotyki/pre/ postbiotyki, pantenol, tokoferol – wspierają mikrobiom skóry, regulują sebum, łagodzą podrażnienia oraz chronią przed stresem oksydacyjnym Potwierdzona skuteczność – wyniki badań Trichoscan HD 4.0 W badaniach na grupie stosującej wcierkę przez 12 tygodni regularnie uzyskano: ≈ 18% wzrost gęstości włosów, ≈ 19,9 pkt % więcej włosów w fazie anagenu, ≈ 19,9 pkt % spadek włosów w fazie telogenu, ≈ 5,4 pkt % wzrost liczby włosów meszkowych, ≈ 5,4 pkt % spadek włosów terminalnych, ≈ 46% wzrost dynamiki porostu włosów w stosunku do początku testu  Poznaj tę wcierkę: Jak dobrać wcierkę do rodzaju skóry głowy? Wybierając wcierkę, warto kierować się nie tylko problemem (np. wypadanie), ale też typem skóry głowy: Skóra przetłuszczająca się – wcierki z pokrzywą, neem, rozmarynem, szałwią. Skóra sucha i wrażliwa – alantoina, pantenol, kozieradka, aloes. Skóra z łupieżem – wcierki z działaniem przeciwgrzybiczym i oczyszczającym: np. z olejkiem z drzewa herbacianego, neem, czarnuszką. Jak stosować wcierkę na porost włosów? Najważniejsze zasady: Stosuj systematycznie – najlepiej codziennie wieczorem lub 3–4 razy w tygodniu. Nakładaj bezpośrednio na skalp (nie na włosy). Wmasuj produkt przez 2–3 minuty – masaż pobudza krążenie i poprawia wchłanianie. Nie spłukuj! Warto połączyć wcierkę z regularnym peelingiem skóry głowy, np. raz w tygodniu – usuwa martwy naskórek i zwiększa skuteczność wcierki. Po jakim czasie widać efekty? Efekty zależą od kondycji skóry głowy i rodzaju problemu, ale zazwyczaj pierwsze zmiany zauważysz po: 2–4 tygodniach – zmniejszenie wypadania, 6–8 tygodniach – pojawienie się baby hair, 12 tygodniach i więcej – gęstsze, mocniejsze włosy. Czy wcierka działa także przy łupieżu i przetłuszczaniu? Tak. Wiele wcierających toników ma działanie wielokierunkowe: normalizują pracę gruczołów łojowych, łagodzą podrażnienia, hamują rozwój grzybów odpowiedzialnych za łupież. Są więc doskonałym rozwiązaniem dla osób zmagających się z wrażliwą, problematyczną skórą głowy. Jakie korzyści daje regularne stosowanie wcierki? Podsumujmy najważniejsze korzyści: Przyspieszenie porostu włosów Zahamowanie wypadania Wzmocnienie cebulek Poprawa mikrokrążenia Nawilżenie i ukojenie skalpu Redukcja łupieżu Lepsza objętość i gęstość włosów Zdrowszy, bardziej naturalny wygląd Czy wcierka do włosów jest dla Ciebie? Jeśli marzysz o mocniejszych, gęstszych włosach, które rosną szybciej, a jednocześnie chcesz zadbać o zdrowie skóry głowy, naturalna wcierka na porost włosów to kosmetyk, którego nie może zabraknąć w Twojej rutynie.
