How to Care for Color Treated Hair
- Stay away from washing. (Sounds awful, I know!) After you have your hair colored try not to wash for two days. This will make your color last much longer.
- Use color refreshing shampoos and conditioners between treatments.
- Avoid the blow dryer – opt to go natural.
- Stay away from the hairspray – nothing takes away shine like hairspray. You don’t need it!
- Avoid over-washing. If you can, go a day or two in between washes – maybe even get down to washing just two times a week – seriously! Try dry shampoo for the off days.
- Invest in a great brush.
- Use leave in conditioners to seal in color.
- Add a water filtration system to your shower. All the chemicals and deposits in water can have negative affects on your color.
