Long-Lasting Hair Color: Tips for Keeping It Vibrant


How to Make Your Hair Color Last Longer


A fresh, vibrant hair color is always a joy, but making it last can be a challenge. Here are some expert tips to help you keep your color looking great for longer:


1. Avoid Shampooing Immediately

Your hair color continues to oxidize for up to 48 hours after application. To allow the color to set properly, avoid shampooing during this time. It might be tough, especially if you shampoo daily, but it’s crucial for maintaining vibrant color.


2. Use the Right Shampoo and Conditioner

Choose products specifically formulated for color-treated hair. Using a pH-balanced shampoo and conditioner helps preserve your color. We recommend REDKEN's Color Extend line, which is designed to protect and enhance color.


3. Incorporate Weekly Treatments

Regular treatments improve hair health and help maintain color. Apply a deep conditioning treatment weekly, wrap your hair in plastic wrap, and relax for about 20 minutes before rinsing. This extra care enhances color retention and overall hair quality.


4. Protect from Sun Exposure

Extended sun exposure can fade your hair color. Wearing a hat while outside protects your hair from UV damage, much like how sunscreen protects your skin. This tip is essential year-round.


5. Be Cautious with Chlorine and Salt Water

Chlorine and salt water can strip your color. Use Redken’s Color Extend Rich Recovery to help combat this issue. A budget-friendly trick is to wet your hair with clean water before swimming. Wet hair absorbs less chlorine and salt.


6. Maintain Hair Health

Healthy hair holds color better. At Hair Flair Bradbury, we assess your hair’s condition before coloring. If your hair isn’t in optimal condition, we’ll recommend treatments to improve its health before applying color, ensuring better results and longer-lasting color.
