New Colored Hair Protectors For Summer By Bumble & Bumble

"Fight the fade, ladies!"

If you color you hair, then you know what we're talking about. Fading is absolutely one of the worst things that can happen to a head of dyed hair.

And if you are a faux red-head, then you really know how FAST the shade fades.

Bumble & Bumble has introduced a collection of color hair protectors for summer. We, especially, adore the Bumble & Bumble Color Minded UV Protective Styling Balm ($28, 4.2 oz., at Sephora).

Colored hair cries out for moisture, and this cream has it, with a boost of shine. You can use it on damp hair after shampooing as a blow-out aid. The styling balm gives you lots of volume and heat/humidity protection. And you can build a beach-y hair do

We like to read customer reviews and this new Bumble & Bumble scored pretty highly--not perfect, but close enough, picking up 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Most customers says it fights frizz effectively, gives high shine, and stops the brassiness.

The only minor 'bad thing'----the smell. A bit too chemical-ish.
