How to Maintain Salon Color at Home:
TOP TIPS FOR VIBRANT HAIR COLOR
Maintaining your salon color at home can be challenging, but with the right strategies, you can keep your locks looking fresh and vibrant between appointments. If you’re looking to extend the life of your hair color while promoting healthy hair, follow these essential tips!
1. Use Color-Safe Shampoo and Conditioner
Invest in a high-quality color-safe shampoo and conditioner. These products are specifically formulated to protect your hair color and prevent fading. Look for sulfate-free options, as sulfates can strip color and moisture from your hair.
2. Wash Your Hair Less Frequently
Washing your hair too often can lead to color fading. Aim to wash your hair 2-3 times a week, which will help maintain your salon color. On non-wash days, you can use dry shampoo to absorb excess oil and keep your roots looking fresh.
3. Limit Heat Styling
Heat styling can lead to color fade and damage. When you do use heat styling tools, apply a good heat protectant to shield your hair from high temperatures. Try to embrace your natural texture or opt for styles that require less heat to maintain your vibrant color.
4. Protect Your Hair from Sun Exposure
Sun exposure can dull your hair color and damage your strands. When spending time outdoors, consider wearing a hat or using hair products with UV protection. Look for leave-in conditioners that contain sunscreen to add an extra layer of protection.
5. Hydrate and Nourish Your Hair
Healthy hair holds color better, so keep your locks hydrated and nourished. Use weekly deep conditioning treatments or hair masks to restore moisture and enhance shine. Look for products rich in natural oils like argan, coconut, or jojoba.
6. Touch Up With Color-Enhancing Products
To keep your color looking fresh, consider using color-depositing shampoos or conditioners. These products deposit pigments back into your strands, helping to refresh your color between salon visits. Choose shades that match your salon color for the best results.
7. Schedule Regular Salon Appointments
While maintaining your color at home is important, regular professional touch-ups are essential. Schedule appointments every 6-8 weeks to refresh your color and keep your hair healthy. Your stylist can offer personalized advice on how to maintain your color and recommend additional products.
