Caring for Coloured Hair

Colouring your hair can transform your look and boost your confidence, but maintaining that vibrant colour requires the right care and attention. At DMH Hairdressing in Wanneroo, we understand the importance of caring for coloured hair and keeping it looking healthy and radiant. Here’s how you can care for your hair and ensure your colour stays true and beautiful for longer.

Use Colour Safe Shampoos and Conditioners

One of the most important steps in caring for coloured hair is using shampoos and conditioners specifically formulated for colour treated hair. These products help preserve your colour while nourishing and protecting your hair. However, washing your hair too often can strip away natural oils and fade your colour. Try to wash your hair two to three times a week to keep its vibrancy and health. Additionally, using a hair oil between washes will help lock in moisture, so that your hair appears clean, smooth and shiny. Using a wide-tooth comb will help distribute the product evenly through the hair.

Use Heat Protection for Coloured Hair

Heat styling tools such as straighteners and curling tongs can cause damage and fade your hair colour. High temperatures strip away moisture, leading to split ends and dry, brittle hair which is caused by the damage to the hair shaft. Over time, this damage diminishes the vibrancy and longevity of your hair colour, leaving it looking dull and lifeless. To protect your coloured hair, use a heat protecting product, lower heat settings, and incorporate nourishing treatments to maintain healthy looking locks.

Deep Condition Regularly

One of the most essential steps in caring for coloured hair is deep conditioning. Treatments restore the moisture and nutrients helping to keep it soft, strong, and healthy. By sealing the hair cuticle and locking in colour prevents it from washing out or fading quickly. Also, coloured hair is more susceptible to damage from environmental factors like UV rays, pollution, and humidity. Deep conditioning creates a protective barrier that shields your hair helping to maintain its integrity and appearance. Apply a deep conditioner treatment once a week to give your hair the hydration it needs.
