A beautiful colour is an investment, and a few small habits make a big difference to how long it lasts. Here's what our colour team tells every client before they leave the chair.
Six habits for longer-lasting colour
Tip 1
Wait before your first wash
Give your colour time to settle. Where you can, wait two to three days before washing after a colour appointment.
Tip 2
Wash less often, and cooler
Every wash fades colour a little. Try two or three washes a week in lukewarm water. A dry shampoo like Fresh Affair stretches the time between washes.
Tip 3
Use colour-safe products
Shampoos made for coloured hair are gentler on your colour. Chroma Absolu is designed to protect colour and keep it glossy.
Tip 4
Protect from heat and sun
Heat styling and UV both fade colour. Use a heat protector like Sérum Chroma Thermique every time you style, and wear a hat on long days in the sun.
Tip 5
Add shine weekly
A weekly gloss treatment keeps colour looking rich. Soin Acide Chroma Gloss is a favourite in the salon.
Tip 6
Keep up with the salon
Regular gloss and toner appointments between full colours keep your shade looking freshly done.
