Love is in the hair, and we have eyes for pink this Valentine's Day. This year, consider taking a leap into the world of pink hair color – a look that not only adds a touch of romance to your style but also lets you express your unique personality. Let’s explore the allure of pink hair and why it's the perfect choice to make a statement on Valentine's Day.
Pink is a color that evokes feelings of warmth, tenderness, and affection. It's often associated with love, romance, and femininity, making it an ideal choice for Valentine's Day. In addition to its romantic connotations, pink also symbolizes youthfulness, playfulness, and creativity, making it a versatile color for expressing your personality and style.
One of the most beautiful aspects of coloring your hair pink is the opportunity for self-expression. Your hair is a canvas, and choosing pink allows you to showcase your individuality and creativity in a bold way. Whether you opt for a soft pastel pink, a vibrant fuchsia, or a subtle rose gold hue, the possibilities are endless when it comes to customizing your look.

Whether you choose a soft pastel or a vibrant magenta, maintaining the perfect shade requires a bit of TLC. Here are the quality products and tips to maintain your radiant shade of pink: 
Cold Water is Your Friend: Hot water can strip away the natural oils from your hair, leading to faster color fading. Opt for lukewarm or cold water when washing your hair to help seal the hair cuticles and lock in the pink pigment. This simple switch can make a significant difference in maintaining the longevity of your color.
Use Heat Protection: R+Co’s Chainmail Thermal Heat Protection Spray offers  450°F protection for use with hot tools, with flexible hold and a voluminous, smooth finish.
Prefer a balm instead? R+Co’s Hot Spell Thermotech Blowout Balm gives you a smooth, bouncy blowout with 450° F heat protection.
Choose a Smoothing and Softening Shampoo and Conditioner: R+Co’s Television shampoo and conditioner duo provides everything you need for TV perfect pink hair: body, shine, strengthening, softening, and smoothing.
Regular Touch-Ups: Maintaining pink hair color often involves regular touch-ups to cover roots and refresh the overall hue. Consider scheduling appointments with us to keep your pink perfection in check and ensure that your color remains as vibrant as ever.
