Caring for colored hair

The process of coloring your hair puts a lot of strain on it. Hair dyes usually contain ammonia, which causes the hair to swell and thus ensures that the hair color can penetrate the hair. Hydrogen peroxide then has the task of breaking down the existing pigments before the new color can settle and become embedded. This severely roughens the hair structure. Therefore, in the period following coloring, you should apply an intensive hair mask once a week. This penetrates deep into the hair structure to nourish and rebuild colored hair from within. It also protects the color from fading, smooths the cuticle, and improves combability. The hair mask wraps itself around each individual hair like a protective shield, keeping the color vibrant and shiny. For an additional effect, wrap your hair in a warm towel after applying the hair mask. This gentle warmth works wonders while it's on, allowing the hair mask to penetrate the colored hair even better, allowing the active ingredients to develop optimally.

For color-treated hair, you should match and to each other. Many manufacturers offer complete care lines specifically for color-treated hair. These consist of a mild, gently cleansing shampoo and a conditioner that smooths the hair cuticle and protects the color pigments from fading. Sunlight can also cause the color to fade faster. Therefore, shampoos and conditioners for color-treated hair usually contain UV protection. Be careful with . These penetrate deep into the hair structure and can cause the pigments to disappear from the hair more quickly.

Refreshing colored hair

To avoid further stressing your hair with another color, we recommend a in between. Direct-acting tints only coat the outer cuticle and are easily washed out after 6-8 washes. The porous hair structure is refilled and sealed with color pigments, creating rich color and a radiant shine. Hair tints are particularly gentle and do not damage the hair. Hair tints also contain nourishing active ingredients that build up the hair.

In addition to tinting your hair, you can also refresh your hair's color from time to time with a treatment. This counteracts fading colors and gives your hair new shine. If you only want to touch up your roots, a treatment can help.
