How To Wash Colour-Treated Hair

A common mistake when it comes to hair colour is that people over wash their hair which will cause the hair colour to fade faster. You should only be washing your hair 2-3 times a week. Focus the shampoo on the roots of your hair and apply conditioner to the mid-lengths to tips.

When you wash your hair less frequently, you hair colour will stay more vibrant for longer. If you feel like your hair needs a wash, sometimes you can just skip to the conditioner to keep your hair colour healthy and moisturised whilst giving it that fresh feeling.

Make sure you're using the right shampoo and conditioner for colour-treated hair. If you're not sure which hair products you should be using, our expert team can recommend the right hair products for you.

Protect Your Hair Colour From Heat

Heat is another factor that can cause your hair colour to fade and become damaged. Try not to use heated styling tools where possible. If you have to use heated styling tools such as curlers or straighteners, you should always use a heat protection product. Ditch the hair drier and opt to air dry your hair instead!

You also need to protect your hair colour from the heat from the sun. Use hair products with UV filters in to protect your hair from the sun's harsh UV rays.

Look After Your Hair Colour When Swimming

We've all heard the horror story of someone's hair going green after swimming in the pool! Chlorine can cause your hair colour to change and can also damage your hair. It's important to look after your hair colour whilst swimming to keep your hair colour looking and feeling happy and healthy.

The best way to look after your hair while swimming is to coat it in conditioner. This will act as a barrier between your hair and the chlorine. Then, tie your hair up and away in a bun on the top of your hair to limit the amount of hair that has contact with the chlorine water.

Eat Healthy For Healthy Hair Colour

What you put inside your body is reflected on the outside which means what you eat can affect your hair. Make sure to eat oily fish such as salmon or mackerel for soft, shiny hair. If your hair is weak and brittle, eating walnuts can help make your hair feel stronger.
