Invest in blue/purple/silver shampoo

The first mistake people make in colored hair care is that they use regular shampoos. It pays to invest in these colored shampoos to keep your hair as close to its dyed color as much as possible. These shampoos neutralize unwanted colors in your hair, like orange and yellow. Use blue shampoo for darker hair, silver for silver and gray hair, and purple for blonde hair once a week to avoid those brassy tones.

Skip the pool day

Chlorine and salt water can actually do some serious damage to the color in your hair. Chlorine especially has been known to turn blonde hair green — yikes! The sun is also very harmful to colored hair; it can fade the color and lead to dry and brittle strands. If you must go out for that beach or pool day, spray some heat protectant on your locks and tie them up to preserve the pigments.

Just as pool and ocean water can damage colored hair, regular shower water can also cause color fading over time. Showering every other day or two with colder water will help your hair keep its natural oils and stay moisturized. Make sure to also look into sulfate-free shampoo and color-safe products to maintain a healthy head of hair.

Buy that leave-in conditioner

Part of taking care of dyed hair means buying leave-in conditioner (along with dry shampoo). Leave-in conditioner forms a protective barrier on the strands, protecting your hair from heat tools and other elements. It’s a must for those that regularly use blow dryers, straighteners, or curlers.
