How To Wash Colour-Treated Hair

When it comes to colour-treated hair, you should actually wash your hair less frequently because every time you wash your hair your hair colour will fade a little more. You should only really wash your hair 2-3 times a week. If your hair begins to look oily between washes, try to use a dry shampoo instead.

If you struggle to not wash your hair every day, just avoid shampooing as often and instead use conditioner every day. This will help keep your colour-treated hair moisturised and nourished without washing the hair colour away.

Protect Colour-Treated Hair

Protect your hair from heat damage as this can also make your hair colour fade and become dull fast. Try to not use heated styling tools where possible. If you have to use heated styling tools, then always make sure to use heat protection spray. Rather than blow drying your hair, let your hair air dry instead!

Your hair can become dull, dry and brittle from over-exposure to the sun. Protect your hair from the sun's harsh UV rays by making sure to use hair products that include a UV filter such as a UV filter finishing spray.

Look After Your Hair Colour While Swimming

Remember the horror stories of hearing that people's hair had gone green from going swimming? Well, the chlorine from a swimming pool can actually change your hair colour and cause it to fade!

Make sure to look after your hair while swimming by coating it in a layer of conditioner before getting in the water. Also, make sure to tie it up and away in a bun on the top of your head to minimise how much hair gets exposed to the chlorine water.

Eat Healthy For Healthy Hair Colour

Healthy hair starts from within. This means you need to eat right for your hair to look its best. Eat oily fish such as mackerel or salmon to nourish your hair with omega-3 fatty acids that will leave your hair looking strong and shiny.

If your hair is dry and brittle, add some walnuts to your diet for some vitamin E to revive and restore your hair.
