If you have colored hair, you want to enjoy it for as long as possible. To keep your color beautiful for as long as possible and to keep your hair healthy, we have six do's and don'ts for you, straight from the experts.
Don't: wash your hair immediately after coloring
Keeping your hair away from water for the first 24 hours will help keep your colour vibrant for as long as possible. This will give your hair cuticles time to close and absorb the new colour pigments, meaning you will enjoy your colour for longer.
Do: Rinse your hair with cold water
Has it been at least 24 hours since you had your hair colored? Then you can wash your hair again. Okay, it may be a bit less pleasant, but if you rinse your hair with lukewarm to cold water, you will keep your color beautiful for longer. (Too) hot water ensures that the color pigments disappear from your hair faster and we don't want that!
Don't: wash your hair too often
Washing your hair too often will not make it happy, but neither will your colour. Washing your hair is one of the main reasons why your colour fades. Of course, you cannot completely avoid washing your hair, but try to wash your hair a maximum of three times a week with colour-friendly products. Do you suffer from greasy hair between washes? Use a dry shampoo. The Hustler Texturising Dry Shampoo is a fan favourite because it not only degreases the hair, but also adds texture and body to the hair.
Do: use colour friendly products
We already mentioned them: colour friendly products. These are mild products that are specially made to keep your colour beautiful for as long as possible; products without aggressive cleaning agents that can damage the hair and make the colour disappear faster. Good news: all our products are colour friendly . But the perfect match for your coloured hair to keep it beautiful for as long as possible? That is the Stay With Me Colour Saver Shampoo . This contains the unique Colour Saver Complex, which envelops colour molecules and ensures that the colour stays beautiful for as long as possible.
Don't: use heat tools too often
Not only hot water, but also heat tools cause your color to fade faster. Therefore, use them as little as possible. And if you do use your curling iron or straightener, set it to the coolest setting to enjoy your beautiful color as long as possible.
Do: Give your hair some extra love
Hair that is colored, especially after a bleaching session, can use some extra love. So treat your hair once a week with a nourishing hair mask. Is your color also in need of a refresh? Then use a color mask. Our Color Masks - available in the colors Beautiful Blonde, Caramel Blonde, Cool Brown, Chocolate Brown and Bright Copper - not only breathe new life into your color, they also give your hair a significant health boost thanks to the natural ingredients they contain.
