TIPS TO PROTECT COLOR TREATED HAIR
COLOR WILL FADE FROM TIME TO TIME BUT WITH PROPER CARE, YOU CAN MAINTAIN YOUR COLOR FOR LONGER!
Wait at least 2-4 days before shampooing, after a color service. This will allow the color to set in the hair.
Use ONLY professional color shampoo/conditioner. Drug store products will strip and ruin your colour!
Shampoo your hair less frequently. Recommended – 2 to 3 times a week. It’s good to let your natural oil sit and moisturize your hair and scalp. This will help your hair maintain its moisture and prevents it from drying out. (You can try color safe dry shampoo if you find that your hair gets oily quicker)
Do not wet your hair in the shower on days that you do not shampoo. Water is also a factor to color fading. You can wear a shower cap or tie it up to protect it from the water.
Turn your heating tools to a lower setting. Heat, hot showers, the sun, all fade out your hair color quicker.
Use a restoring hair mask (weekly/bi-weekly). This is key! You need to make sure you are using products that keep your hair moisturized and healthy especially after bleaching/coloring it.
Products you should be using every time you shower: Colour safe shampoo, conditioner, come out of the shower spray a leave in conditioner in your hair. comb the hair with from bottom to top gently, blow-dry or air dry the hair, and then leave in a serum or oil in the hair to seal the cuticles.
If your hair is an ash blonde or ash brown - use purple shampoo once every third wash to help with brassiness. Do not over use, it is drying to the hair..
Avoid swimming in chlorine or long exposure in the sun. Chlorine may turn your hair green, if you are blonde (you can wear a swim cap).
