Tips for maintaining dyed hair

  • Do not use shampoo after dyeing your hair: This is to preserve the hair color, and avoid washing the hair for three days, so that the pores in the hair are closed and the dye color molecules are trapped, which makes the hair color remain for a longer period.
  • Do not dye your hair repeatedly: Getting rid of hair dye if you are not satisfied with the resulting color is done by waiting a period of time before dyeing it again. Buying the dye from places that sell it, such as pharmacies, and dyeing the hair again will make the matter worse, because its chemical components dry out the hair.
  • Washing hair with hot water: The hot water theory says: The hotter the water, the faster the hair color will be lost. Therefore, you must set the water temperature to a warm or cold degree. Hot water is considered one of the most common causes of hair color fading.
  • Towel drying: Drying the hair with heat styling tools causes the hair color to fade, and the ends of the hair become dry, so the hair must be gently dried with a soft towel, and the hair should be left to dry in the open air.
  • Use serum or oils at night to maintain the shine of dyed hair: Reducing the use of heat stylers to restore the natural shine of hair, as dyed hair may lose its luster from the chemicals that are placed on it.
  • Avoid exposure to sunlight: You should avoid exposure to harmful sunlight, because it contributes to hair fading, loss of color, and dryness as well. When going out in the sun, we recommend wearing a hat to preserve hair color.
  • Hair dye interval spacing: It is recommended to space hair dyeing periods at least six weeks apart, because it contributes to preserving hair from internal breakage. It is not believed that coloring hair frequently gives it a decent appearance. On the contrary, it harms the hair from the inside.
  • Not using a hair straightener every day: Because exposure of the hair to excessive heat leads to the fading of the hair color, which comes from hairdressers, and tools that are safe for colored hair must be used.
  • Use sulfate-free products: Shampoo and conditioner contain sulfates and salts that help fade the color of hair dye, and it is preferable to use products that contain a little sulfate to maintain hair color.
  • Putting on the air conditioner before swimming: The pool of water contains chlorine, which leads to the fading of hair color. Before going into the pool of water, you must apply conditioner to the hair while it is wet to prevent chlorine from reaching the hair, protect its color, and prevent any change in hair color.
  • Use hair masks, and avoid exposing the hair to direct sunlight or swimming without covering the hair: Because it is considered one of the factors that damage hair, it is necessary to use hair masks to protect it from damage, including coconut oil, jasmine, argan oil, and sea buckthorn oil. These oils are placed on wet or dry hair.
  • Avoid using hair styling products that contain alcohol: Because it leads to fading of the hair dye and drying it out.
