The Shocking Secret To Achieve Blonder Locks

"I don't blow-dry my hair ever," Sara George, an event planner, told us recently. Her carefully planned haircare routine (where she switches betweenJohn Frieda Sheer Blonde Everlasting ShampooandL'Orᅢᄅal Professionnel Sᅢᄅrie Expert Silver Shampoo) seems to be serving her shiny locks well.

When asked why she uses two different shampoos, she explained that it had to do withmaintaining blonder-than-blonde locks. "I use L'Orᅢᄅal Silver Shampoo occasionally to stop it from going brassy. It makes your hair more blonde, but you have to be careful because if you leave it on for too long, it'll make your hair look silver. It's for old people, but you want it as a rinse if you have blonde hair." We know what we're stealing the next time we visit Granny!
