Tips to keep your color lasting longer
- Wash hair only when needed…if it’s not dirty, then spritz lightly with water and product and restyle the next day.
- Avoid hot water, especially in the winter when you are cold….hot water opens the cuticle, and releases the color molecules…resulting in faster fadage of haircolor.
- Always condition, this closes the cuticle to seal in the haircolor…giving you longer lasting shine and enhanced color.
- Use color treated shampoos and conditioners that have extra protectents to help maintain your color to look fresher longer.
- Once your hair is cleaned and conditioned, keep it out of the running water…as extra (warm/hot) water will increase fadage with your color.
- Leave-in conditioners specially formulated for color retention. This conditioners are now light weight, and actually add volume to fine hair. My favorite product is DEDE / conditioner by Davines. A delicate replenishing Leave-In Mist with Grape extract.
- Avoid sun exposure to under 20 min…use sunscreens, hats, scarves, etc to protect your color.
