Even if you’ve been dyeing your hair for years, there may be some new facts that you don’t know. For example, did you know that a lot of products are available for colour-treated hair? It’s true! Colour-treated hair is different from all other types of hair, so it needs special attention. This article will talk about how to use colour shampoo and conditioner, and the difference between the two products.
1. What You Need to Know About Colour Shampoo
Colour shampoo is used to help preserve your hair colour and keep hair looking healthy. For those who dye their hair regularly, it’s a must-have. There are different formulas available at the drugstore and some are better than others. Here are a few tips to help you find the best colour shampoo for your hair.
Ingredients needed
Water. There should only be one required ingredient in your shampoo (don’t mix up a batch just to avoid a second bottle!). It’s always a good idea to seek professional advice before you begin your colour shampoo experiment. Many hair dyes contain pigments made from plants, which can be drying for the skin. Consult with your hairstylist or pharmacist before beginning any more hair dye experiments.
2. What Is Colour Shampoo and What Does It Do?
Colour shampoo is a product that is used to counteract unwanted yellow tones in your hair. It is used to remove brassiness from blonde hair, or dullness from silver or grey hair. It can also be used to keep coloured hair from changing colour.
In general, most people can use a basic oil shampoo with their hair, although some people find a strong-smelling oil to be a turn-off. You can achieve a nice natural colour change by shampooing once every three to four weeks or water-washing once a week. If your hair is dreadfully dull, start by trying plain water-washing.
Simply put a small drop of the conditioner you’re currently using into your palm and apply it to damp hair. Massage it in for a couple of minutes, then rinse thoroughly with clean water. You might also try using a medium-weight conditioner to balance out any natural grey tones in your hair. This will prevent your hair from getting frizzy and keep it shiny.
To achieve a similar result but for coloured hair, using shampoo together with conditioner can give your hair a nice metallic shine, similar to that of metallic hair dye. If you’re looking for a warm red, use a red conditioner, using the yellow shampoo to bring out the pink in your hair, and an orange conditioner to bring out the yellow. If you want to paint your hair black, simply use a conditioner to lift the black vibes from your hair. If you want a lighter touch, go for a metallic bronze-coloured shampoo.
3. How to Use Colour Shampoo
To colour your hair, you need to use a colour shampoo that is meant for colour treated hair. These shampoos will make your hair feel silky and soft, and will also make your hair look shinier. It’s also good to use a colour-protecting shampoo and conditioner. Colour protectors are meant to seal the shampoo from any coating that might develop on your hair during its journey from washing to hair dyeing. Here’s why colour protectors are also important for people who have colour-treated hair.
