Finally, you have color treated your hair. They are now glamorous and sensual. Congratulations!
However, the real challenge is now. You must retain your lovely new hair color for long without losing the sheen of your hair.
So, how do you do that?
6 smart ways to care for your colored hair
- Use a sulfate-free shampoo like Keranique. According to users, they help to retain sheen of color for longer. They also help to remove previous buildup from the scalp, rejuvenating your mane.
- Remember that color treatment breaks down protein of hair to some extent. So, in the absence of proper care your hair may look dull. Use a shampoo that has keratin based substance.
- Keratin shampoos create a protective coat around cuticles that add gloss to hair and seal in moisture to keep your hair soft and moisturized.
- Avoid rubbing your strands against each other while drying them with a towel. Simply wrap a towel around your head to absorb the excess water. Let your hair air dry. This is one of the best things you can do to your hair.
- Avoid hot blow dryers. Use them occasionally, only if you must. Healthy hair actually needs no blow dry. They are bouncy and shiny anyway.
- Visit your color stylist for touch ups to retain the glamour of your hair.
Remember…
Color your hair only when you can care and maintain them. If not, be content with your natural hair color.
If you have color treated hair with a rich, vibrant color like red, you must gear up to take extra care of them. Carelessness can backfire. Instead of looking glamorous and hot, your hair may make you look weird and make you the butt of jokes.
Your hair stylist will recommend you the best shampoo designed especially for color treated hair. Please visit a professional salon for color treatment, as this is a big decision. Once you color your hair, there is no looking back. You lose the ‘natural-ness’ of your hair forever.
So, think again…and then do it.
According to experts, with dedicated care towards hair, you can enjoy fabulous hair shades on your mane. The trick to glamorously colored hair is health. So, if your hair is already damaged, fix them first and then color them.
No color looks nice on damaged hair. You won’t see the desired effect. So, it is better to repair your damaged hair first, instead of blaming the stylist for not doing the coloring job properly.
