How to Brighten Dull Hair: Restore Shine & Vibrancy
Is your hair looking lackluster, flat, or dull? Whether you’re blonde, brunette, highlighted, or color-treated, restoring shine and vibrancy is easier than you think. The right hair care routine and products can remove buildup, revive color, and leave your hair looking luminous and healthy.
Why Does Hair Become Dull?
Dull, dry hair is often caused by a buildup of minerals, metals, chlorine, and product residue. These impurities coat the hair, blocking moisture and making even the healthiest color look lifeless. Environmental factors, hard water, and styling products all contribute to hair that feels coated, dry, and prone to breakage.
“Metals, minerals, dirt, and oil sit on top of your hair preventing moisture from getting in, leaving your hair feeling dry and dull looking. Removing these allows your hair to absorb moisture and shine.”
