The 6 must have products to maintain dyed hair colour for longer

This embrace of dyed hair has given rise to find the solution to a frustrating problem – searching for products that prevent fading. A quick wash with the wrong product can remove colour entirely from the hair or lead to fading or shade changes. This is why careful consideration is needed when choosing products for coloured, dyed, highlighted and ombred hair to provide necessary cleansing while prolonging pigment and maintaining colour as close to its original shade as possible.

The longer the duration that colour can be sustained in hair means less frequent exposure to chemicals for reapplication. This is why our beauty pros have compiled six must haves products that treat dryness, maintain vibrancy while keeping hair healthy in 2021. Here are our top picks:

Davines Minu Shampoo

This quaint shampoo is loved by people with hair that is brightly coloured and highlighted in an ombre style for example. It gently cleanses hair while protecting the colour and keeping it shiny. As a bonus feature, it also acts as a hydrator to counteract the likely dryness that accompanies coloured hair.

A beauty pro tip to maintaining hair colour longer is also to limit hair exposure to direct sun. The sun can offset oxidation within the colour pigments resulting in a quicker fading. If the delights of summer in the sun can’t be resisted, then be sure that the products used have a UV filter and a protector against swimming pools and the ocean.

Keep in mind that dyed hair is also prone to dryness which is another reason to stay away from the sun. Products with multifunctional and hydrating qualities like the ones suggested above are recommended. The most important takeaway for dyed hair is to have fun! Enjoy it while it lasts, don’t be afraid of using styling tools as long as the proper protection is applied first and hydrate with the above products. Let your personality out with hair colour.
