Colored hair needs extra cure to keep it in good condition. Use products with sunscreens or UV filters when in the sun, to help protect against color fade and the drying effects of the sun.


Leave-in conditioners generally contain sunscreens to protect against color fade. Strong shampoo can strip color or dry out hair, so use a shampoo specially created for colored/treated hair.


Condition regularly with an intensive conditioner to maintain the moisture level in colored hair. Use color-enhancing styling products to get extra gloss on colored sections. Don’t brush hair when wet. Comb with a wide-tooth comb, working tangles out s you move from the end towards the root.


When you blow dry or iron, always use a styling product to protect the hair from external heat. Use hairspray or serums with moisturizers and sunscreens to finish the hair. These products will provide protection throughout the day.


Do not use strong anti-dandruff shampoo on a regular basis as it can cause dryness in the hair. Don’t spray lightening agents or put lemon juice in your hair.
