Blond hair is not any more fragile than other hair colors. However, because it is more visible and exposed to the elements, blondes may need to take extra care of their hair. Blondes should use a shampoo and conditioner formulated for blondes to help keep color from fading and moisture loss. Also, if you have light-colored hair, you may want to consider using a heat protectant before applying heat tools like blow dryers.
