To keep your hair color-lasting, besides choosing effective dyes, you must know how to care for your hair probably after dyeing your hair.
Choose the right shampoo for dyed hair: SPF is not only for skin but also extremely useful for hair. Because, without sunscreen, UV rays easily penetrate the epidermis and oxidize or bleach. So, to protect your hair, choose wisely shampoo with SPF 12 or higher. You should also choose shampoo and conditioner for the best results.
First of all, the first rule is not to shampoo and scratch hard in the first 3 days of dying. This will help to reduce allergies caused by dye and keep the new pigments from sticking to deeper hair cells, thereby helping to permanently color the hair. After that, you should not wash your head with too hot water, so choose warm or cold water.
Limit hair drying. Regular hair drying will cause the hair to be affected by the heat, making it hot, brittle and dull. Therefore, only when really needed, you should use the dryer in cool mode.
Mask for hair. For some common coloring hair, you should use a hair mask to protect dyed color. Apply at least once a week for best result.
So, only with some simple tips you can keep your color-treated hair looking shiny, protect your hair color and keep your hair looking lovely.
