What cosmetics to use to achieve such results? What treatments can you use to regenerate colour-treated hair? How to take proper care of dyed hair?

Colour-treated hair – what is it like?

Hair colouring weakens not only the bulbs but also the entire hair structure, which is why dyed hair is often brittle, dry and devoid of vitality and radiance. It is difficult to style it as well. To improve the condition of colour-treated hair, you must start using cosmetics designed specifically for this type of hair.

Cosmetics for colour-treated hair

Shampoo for dyed hair should prevent rapid loss of colour. Hair should not be washed more often than once a day, and it would be recommended to wash it every other day. When you rinse your shampoo, do not use a strong stream of water. Conditioner intended for coloured hair should provide it with deep hydration. Spread it all over the hair and rinse after a few minutes. In the summer, it is worth using a conditioner with a sunscreen that will protect your hair from UV rays. A mask for dyed hair should strengthen it and enhance the colour intensity as long as possible. The regenerative mask should be simply applied to the hair once a week. Its ingredients, including glycerine, vitamin E, panthenol and hydrolysates, penetrate deep hair structures and rebuild its damage. With thin hair, apply a mask to the section from the ear to the tips, and with thick hair, you can apply it to the whole length. In turn, thermo protective cosmetics should be used on dyed hair before each use of a blow-dryer, straightener and curler. This will protect hair from damage and make it easier to stylize.

Professional procedures for colour-treated hair 

If you use cosmetics intended for colour-treated hair, and yet the hair is still damaged, you can opt for professional treatments for dyed hair, for example for a regenerative hair treatment. This is a two-phase treatment that improves the elasticity of the hair. First, the hairdresser applies cleansing shampoo, which removes damaged hair scales and other impurities from the scalp, and then a nourishing cream. Next, the hair is subjected to a steam sauna, which opens up the hair scales and facilitates the penetration of cosmetic preparations.
