Caring for Coloured Hair: How to Help Your Hair Colour Last Longer?

Whether you have gone bright red or cool blonde, you probably love how it looks in the mirror. But after a few weeks, that colour can start to look a bit dull. If you want to stay looking your best, you need to know the right way of caring for coloured hair. Here are some easy tips to help you out.

Washing Your Hair the Right Way

The biggest concern for coloured hair lies in how you wash it. Usually, you should wait for three days after your salon visit before you use any water. This duration gives the colour time to stick to your hair.

Try to use lukewarm water when washing your hair. Very hot water opens up the hair and lets the dye wash right out. Using cool water helps keep hair colour bright and shiny.

A Healthy Hair Routine

Colouring your hair can sometimes make it feel a bit dry or thin. To fix this, you should add a pre-shampoo mask to your routine for dyed hair.

Before you shower, try using Hair Yoga® Growth treatment Oil as an extra step of caring for coloured hair.

You rub it into your hair and scalp while they are still dry. This natural oil acts like a shield. It keeps your hair strong and thick, so the dye doesn't make it weak. After letting it sit for a while, just wash it off with your gentle shampoo, and you will immediately notice softer hair.

Protection from the Sun and Sea

The sun is very strong and can fade your hair. If you are going for a long walk, wear a hat. If you go swimming, rinse your hair with tap water first. This stops the pool chemicals from soaking into your strands.
