The Natural Way to Save Your Color: How Batana Oil Repairs Damaged, Dyed Hair
Coloring your hair is one of the best ways to express yourself. But whether you've gone for a vibrant new shade, a sun-kissed balayage, or a full platinum look, one fact is undeniable: color and bleach are damaging.
The chemical process works by lifting your hair's protective outer layer (the cuticle) to deposit or remove color. This leaves your hair shaft exposed, porous, and incredibly vulnerable to dryness, frizz, and—worst of all—breakage.
Your new, porous hair will leak moisture just as fast as you put it in. But there is a natural solution. Before you reach for synthetic bond-builders, look to the unrefined, restorative power of Nubiana's 100% Pure Batana Oil.
1. It Fortifies the Weakened Hair Shaft
Color-treated hair is weak hair. Batana oil is a strengthening powerhouse. Its unique profile of fatty acids penetrates the porous, lifted cuticle to nourish the hair's inner core (the cortex). This helps to rebuild the strand's integrity from the inside out, making it stronger and more resilient.
2. It Seals the Lifted Cuticle (Restoring Shine)
The main reason color-damaged hair looks dull and feels frizzy is that the lifted cuticles won't lie flat. A rough, open cuticle doesn't reflect light. Batana oil is a rich sealant that smooths down and "cements" that damaged cuticle, locking in moisture and creating a smooth surface that reflects light—bringing back your hair's natural shine.
3. It Creates a Protective Barrier
Your newly porous hair is a "magnet" for damage. Batana oil coats the strand in a protective, nourishing barrier. This shield helps to protect your hair from further damage (like heat or sun) and can even help slow the fading of your expensive color.
How to Use Batana Oil on Color-Treated Hair
The best method is as an intensive pre-poo (pre-shampoo) treatment.
Shampooing can be a very stripping process for fragile, color-treated hair. Protecting it before you wash is essential.
-
Before Your Shower: Scoop a generous amount of Batana oil and melt it in your palms.
-
Apply to Dry Hair: Work the oil through your dry hair, focusing on your most porous, damaged areas (usually the mid-lengths and ends).
-
Wait: Let it sit for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for a deep, intensive treatment.
-
Wash: Shampoo and condition as usual. The oil will have created a nourishing barrier, protecting your strands from being stripped by the shampoo.
Your hair will feel noticeably stronger, softer, and look shinier, all without compromising your color.
