Top 10 Coloured Hair Tips – Protecting Coloured Hair from Damage

From preventing colour fading to minimising damage, these expert-recommended coloured hair care tips will ensure your coloured hair stays stunning and healthy. So, let’s dive into the details and discover how to keep your coloured hair looking its best:

1. Shampoo Less, Rinse More

Limiting your shampoo sessions helps preserve colour by reducing the stripping effect. Instead, rinse your hair with water and follow up with a colour-safe conditioner to maintain moisture.

Our experts recommend using System Professional Color Save Conditioner. It is suitable for all types of colour-treated hair and contains a UV filter to shield your locks from harmful sun rays. Its advanced formulation actively protects the brilliance of your hair colour, preventing unwanted colour shifting and ensuring that your hue stays true for longer.  

2. Embrace Dry Shampoo

Incorporate dry shampoo into your routine to extend the time between washes and protect your colour from excessive cleansing. Opt for a formula specifically designed for coloured hair to refresh without fading.

3. Cool It Down

When washing coloured hair, use lukewarm or cool water to prevent colour molecules from escaping. Avoid hot water, as it can cause colour fading and dryness.

4.  Deep Conditioning Treatments

Pamper your coloured hair with regular deep conditioning treatments to nourish and hydrate. Look for treatments enriched with ingredients like argan oil or keratin to restore strength and shine. 

Bodycraft Salon offers a range of luxurious treatments, including hair colour, keratin treatments, one-day hair botox treatments and olaplex treatments. These treatments are designed to restore strength and shine to your coloured locks.

5. Avoid Heat Overload

Excessive heat styling can damage coloured hair and fade the colour faster. Prioritise heat protectant sprays and lower heat settings on styling tools to minimise heat damage.

6. Say No to Sulphates

Opt for sulphate-free shampoos and conditioners. Sulphates can strip away colour and natural oils, leaving your hair dry and dull. Look for gentle formulas that preserve colour and moisture.

7. Sun Shield

Shield your coloured hair from the damaging effects of the sun’s UV rays. Wear a hat or use UV-protective sprays or serums to minimise colour fading and maintain vibrancy.

8. Protect with Leave-In Conditioner

Apply a leave-in conditioner to protect coloured hair from environmental stressors while keeping it moisturised and manageable. Look for lightweight options that won’t weigh your hair down or leave a residue.

9. Avoid Chlorine

Before swimming, wet your coloured hair and coat it with a leave-in conditioner or hair oil. This creates a barrier, reducing chlorine absorption and preventing colour fading.

10. Regular Trims
