We wear our hair everyday—make sure the color of the hair you wear is customized and perfect for you. After visiting the salon to get the perfect color, you will need to take special care of your treated strands to help the color last for as long as possible. Read on for some tips for caring for color treated hair.
Rinse Carefully
To ensure that your color remains vibrant for many weeks, you may want to take special care when you are in the shower. Excessive rinsing especially with extra hot water can cause your color to fade more quickly. Additives in our water can be harsher on our hair than we would like so you may even want to consider investing in a shower water filter.
Use Specially Formulated Products
When you are at the beauty salon, ask your hair stylist about using special products on your color treated hair. Shampoos and conditioners can be specially formulated to preserve color and protect your strands. By switching to these products, you can keep your treated hair looking great. Without these special formulas, shampoo and conditioners can dull and pull out color pigment sooner. Even styling products can make a difference—products that smooth the outer layer of hair seal in the color and hairsprays can protect the hair from harmful uva/uvb rays.
Wash Less Frequently
If you are an avid, once a day shower taker, you may want to consider switching up your hair washing routine after you have a color process. This is especially true for those with vibrant red or purple hues. By washing less frequently, you can help to avoid the sometimes damaging effects of water. Dry shampoo can help you touch up your strands on days when you do not wash.
