Colour-treated hair covers everything from babylights and balayage to glosses and new growth touch-ups. While some shades and hair types will have distinct routines to follow, for the most part creating a hair care routine for colour-treated hair comes down to a few distinct details. Let’s discuss.

The Top Hair Care Tips for Colour-Treated Hair

Keep Consistent Appointments

The length between hair colour appointments will vary based on your tone, placement and rate of hair growth. For this reason, determining the best schedule for touch-ups will be based on advice from your hairstylist. Once this is determined, keeping a consistent schedule is key. This ensures the best results for your colour while also looking after the health of your hair as well.

Consider a GLOSS in Between

Whether regular glossing services are already a part of your hair colour routine or not, adding a GLOSS to your strands ensures even tone and excellent shine. Plus with KM.BOND2 and Vitamin C this demi-permanent hair colour reconstructs and moisturises hair for a strengthened finish.

Utilise Specific Products Tailored for Colour-Treated Hair

When you colour your hair, you must add a foundation of products to your hair care routine that are tailored to colour-treated hair. If you’re still on the hunt, look no further than EVERLASTING.COLOUR. This range consists of colour-safe products that work from start to finish to extend the longevity of your colour while also repairing and strengthening your hair.

For daily use, EVERLASTING.COLOUR WASH + RINSE + LEAVE-IN are ideal to gently cleanse and condition with pH sealing technology that protects your colour and your cuticle. Plus EVERLASTING.COLOUR LEAVE-IN helps to build bonds within your hair to enhance the health and strengthen the hair.

Protect Hair from the Elements

The biggest culprits when it comes to damaging colour-treated hair are environmental stressors like sun, hard/salt/chlorinated water, and mechanical elements like blow-dryers, curling irons, or flat irons. While bond protection is key to any hair care routine for colour-treated hair, you can also protect hair from damage by avoiding these or adding additional protection.

Habits like wearing hats or switching to a silk pillowcase can cut down on mechanical damage while products like HEATED.DEFENSE heat protection is ideal to combat colour fade and improve the health of your hair.

Add Colour-Enhancing Products to Your Routine

Brassiness and yellowing is one of the biggest challenges when it comes to blonde and highlighted brunette hair. While regular colour appointments and glosses can cut down on this, adding a colour-enhancing range to your daily routine is an easy and efficient at-home option to neutralise your colour.

Pick from BLONDE.AGAIN.WASH, BLONDE.ANGEL, COOL.ANGEL or SHIMMER.ME BLONDE to enhance your colour and increase condition while combatting unwanted tones.

Regularly Apply a Bond Builder

No matter what shade you are or how you got there, bond building treatments are an ideal step in any hair care routine for colour-treated hair. EVERLASTING.COLOUR TREATMENT is an at-home add-on that protects your colour while enhancing shine and radiance. Application has never been easier as you simply need to spray onto cleansed and conditioned hair, comb and leave-in. It will do all the heavy bond-building work for you!
