How to Take Care of Hair that has Been Dyed

The products I use.

I have had dyed hair since the beginning of the summer, sometimes it can be difficult to figure out what’s going to work for your hair, I am here to help you figure out what can help you keep your colored hair in tip top shape.

1. After dying your hair wait approximately 48 hours before watching your hair. This helps it set into your hair, if you wash it directly after dying it, it will fade.
2. Use shampoos and conditioners without sulfates. Sulfates have the ability to damage hair with or without color. Sulfates will drain color in hair.
3. Only wash your hair every other or every three days
4. Use cold or lukewarm water to wash your hair
5. Some products that I recommend are

1. Ion intense moisture conditioner- My hair can tend to be coarse and dry, This conditioner leaves hair soft, silky and does not strip color. It smells fantastic and the amount that you get is great for its price point. It is $10.99 and comes in a 10.5 fl. oz. bottle.
2. Ion moisture shampoo- This shampoo is $12.49 and comes in a 33.8 fl. oz. bottle. It does not strip color at all. It does leave hair very matted but in pairing with the conditioner it leaves hair smelling good.
3. L'Oréal Paris Hair Expert Color Vibrancy Intensive Shampoo- This shampoo is $4.99 and you get a large 12.6 fl oz. bottle. This shampoo can leave hair a little dehydrated depending on your hair type. Barely strips color.
4. L'Oréal Paris Hair Expert Color Vibrancy Intensive Conditioner- This conditioner makes hair pretty soft and silky but you need to leave it in for about 5 minutes for it to work. And again it is $4.99 and it comes in a 12.6 fl. oz. bottle.
5. Gemstone Color shampoo- It is $24.00, which is quite expensive for the small 8.5 fl. oz. bottle. It makes hair smell good and feel good. This shampoo does not strip color at all. The only downside to this is the price for the amount of shampoo.
6. Gemstone Color conditioner- The price for this is $25.00 and again, you only get 8.5 fl oz.  The conditioner smells fantastic, leaves hair silky and smooth and it does not strip color at all.
