How To Wash Your Hair Colour

It's easy to over wash your hair, but this will cause your hair colour to fade quickly. You should only be washing your hair 2-3 times a week. When shampooing, focus on the roots and when conditioning, focus on the mid-lengths to ends of your hair. You should also make sure to use the right hair products for your hair. At Brooklyns Hairdressers, our hair experts can recommend the right hair products to use for your hair colour.

Heat Protection For Colour-Treated Hair

Heated styling tools cause damage to your hair and will cause your hair colour to fade more quickly. The best way to protect your hair from heat is to stop using heated styling tools. If you have to use heated styling appliances such as a blow dryer, straighteners or curlers, then always make sure to use a heat protectant.

Protect Your Hair Colour From Chlorine

Chlorine in swimming pools can cause your hair colour to become dry and brittle, as well as making your hair colour fade faster. If you swim often, make sure to wear a swimming cap to protect your hair colour from the chlorine. If swimming caps just aren't your style, make sure to tie your hair up and away to limit the amount of hair that has contact with the water. For an added layer of protection, coat your hair in conditioner before going swimming.

Eat Healthily For A Healthy Hair Colour

What you eat affects your body, so if you want a healthy hair colour then it's important to eat healthily. Make sure your diet contains iron, zinc and protein to keep your hair strong and healthy. For shiny hair, eat oily fish such as mackerel or salmon as these have fatty omega-3 which will give your hair added shine. If you feel that your hair is brittle, eating walnuts can help your hair to feel stronger.
