On September 28, one of the most anticipated movies of the year arrives on Netflix: Blondean adaptation of the homonymous novel by Joyce Carol Oatesstarring Ana de Armaswhich covers the life of Marilyn Monroe during the 50s and 60s.
The Hispanic actress plays the one who was in her day, and still is, one of the greatest icons of style and femininity. Marilyn was always considered an empowered, sexy woman with a lot of personality. Her platinum blonde hair is one of her most characteristic features of her look but, What should we know about this mythical hairstyle? We spoke with experts to find out the keys, both when it comes to getting that discoloration and taking care of it.
How to get Marilyn Monroe’s platinum blonde?
As its own name indicates, platinum blonde has always been associated with silver; however, as Alberto Sanguino, an expert from Llongueras, explains, “Ana de Armas’ blonde is a tone that is more vanillait’s warmer.”
In order to do this, we actually have to subjecting the hair to a bleaching process, which, although it is not usually the most recommended for the health of our hair, has an excellent result and can be cared for like any other color, as long as one knows how to do it. “It’s a very aggressive product, which leaves the hair cuticle very open, but there’s no other way to get a platinum, unless you have a very blonde base,” says Sanguino.
To achieve this, as detailed by Carlos Fernández, from Franck Provost, first the background of the hair of the person who is going to perform it should be assessed. “In the case of Ana de Armas, she is a woman with quite dark hair and it has been necessary to bleach it a lot,” she adds.
One of the great disadvantages of this coloration is that the entire process must be repeated once the hair has grown and poke the root. “By only putting the bleach on the base, you inevitably touch a bit of the blonde part and the chances of hair splitting are very high,” he explains.
To achieve the desired tone, it is recommended shade with warm tones like vanilla if you have fair skin, as is the case of Ana de Armas. For warmer skin, it is advisable to opt for ash or smoked.
How to care for bleached hair?
Knowing how to care for bleached hair is key to maintaining the tone and that the hair does not have a dry appearance. Thus, “you have to change the care protocol combining nutritious products together with others that are specific to maintain the color. You can alternate or apply both in the same wash,” the experts explain.
At home, this care is also essential. For this, a very nutritious shampoo must be applied, which hydrates it, in addition to applying a cream or mask at least once a week. In addition, it is recommended to visit our beauty salon every 15 or 20 days to apply a more intensive mask and prevent the color from changing. Normally, this color changes to a yellowish-orange hue.
How often should we go to the salon? It is advisable to visit our beauty center four months maximum, since from that time the root is seen in excess. However, Alberto Sanguino, ensures that the ideal would be to go to the month and a half.
