HOW TO KEEP YOUR HAIR COLOUR FRESH BETWEEN SALON APPOINTMENTS 

When investing into professional in-salon hair colour, you want to make sure that you get the most bang for your buck and for the colour to last. From washing your hair less to finding the best colour saving products, our Head of Colour Baz Maddocks, shares his expert tips in ensuring your colour stays fresh for longer.

Use A Colour Fresh Mask

The Wella Professionals Colour Fresh Masks, that come in array of 12 different shades, is the perfect dual-purpose product you should be adding to your hair care regime. The pigment in the mask gives your hair the perfect colour boost in just 10 minutes and is super easy to apply,  whilst the formulated ingredients mean the mask acts as a moisturising conditioner giving you added nourishment and shine.

Wash Your Hair Less

Washing your hair too often can in fact dry your hair out and this can leave your colour feeling dull. If you have a colour service that fades through shampooing over time such as a semi permanent gloss colour or toning service, the longer you can get away with not washing your hair the better.

Invest In Weekly Treatments 

Keeping your hair nourished and moisturised is the key to beautiful looking hair. In-salon treatments like Olaplex added into your colour will strengthen and hydrate the hair, and this improves colour vibrancy and shine. Weekly at-home hair masks should be part of your hair care regime and this will help with your shade and tone to keep it staying fresh.

Use a Heat Protector 

It sounds simple, but you’d be amazed how many people still don’t use a heat protector when it comes to styling their hair. Hot tools such as hairdryers, straighteners and curling tongs can speed up the process of colour fade,  especially after the first week of colouring your hair. Using a heat protector acts as a great barrier so that the colour particles stay locked in.
