Colored hair

Color-treated hair requires special care to maintain its shine and health. Coloring can weaken the hair fiber, making hair more sensitive to external stressors such as sun exposure, heat, and chemical agents. To prolong the color and prevent it from fading quickly, it is important to adopt a targeted care routine. Here are some recommendations.
FAQ about colored hair

How to care for color-treated hair?

To preserve your hair’s new color, it is recommended to use products specifically formulated for color-treated hair and to avoid washing it too frequently, as this can cause the color to fade.

How can we prevent a color from turning yellow?

The regular use of certain neutralizing shampoos (blue or violet), as well as systematically protecting your hair from UV rays by using a sun care product, helps reduce the risk of color alteration.

Can swimming pool chlorine alter hair color treatments?

In theory, if the hair dye is of good quality, it should not be affected by chlorine in the swimming pool. Nevertheless, as a precautionary measure, it is recommended to wear a swim cap to protect the hair in the pool.

Are plant-based hair dyes gentler on the hair?

Plant-based dyes are indeed gentler on the hair and less likely to trigger allergies. However, they tend to be less long-lasting.

Can color-treated hair be straightened?

The heat from straightening can damage color-treated hair fibers, which are already weakened. It is therefore recommended to use a heat-protective treatment before any styling.

Are colored hair strands more porous?

Yes, because coloring and chemical treatments increase hair porosity by damaging the cuticles. As a result, the hair lets water escape more easily and more readily absorbs active compounds, but also the impurities present on its surface.

Why does color fade over time?

Washing, UV exposure, and oxidation gradually degrade the pigments. The porous fiber retains the color less effectively.

Does hot water damage color-treated hair?

Yes, it increases cuticle opening and promotes pigment loss. This can speed up the fading of the color.

Are film-forming agents useful for color-treated hair?

The film-forming agents, such as vegetable oils, create a protective film that smooths the cuticle and limits external damage. This can enhance shine and reduce pigment loss.

Is it possible to dye your hair frequently without damaging it?

Repeated coloring can weaken the hair fiber. Spacing out applications and adjusting hair care helps limit this impact.
