Natural Hair Color Care: Regimen for Colored Natural Hair

Hey Curls,

As promised, this is what I provide my clients after they receive natural hair color service. Another thing to think about not listed below is doing an Olaplex Treatment every 12 weeks or 3 months. This is not a protein treatment but a bond reconstructing treatment that rebuilds any broken bonds during the coloring process. Ask your stylist about this one. I make a point to do this through out the color process.

Please know that the purpose of altering your regimen with colored natural hair is to ensure the following:

  • preserve hair color and stop fading (note: hair color fades in the sun)
  • pack moisture back into the hair
  • soften the hair
  • brighten highlights
  • counteract brassiness or ashiness
  • enhance existing color

COLOR CARE TIPS

  • DO A DEEP CONDITION AND/OR PROTEIN TREATMENT BEFORE YOUR COLOR SERVICE (THESE ARE ADD ON SERVICES THAT CAN BE DONE IN THE SALON OR AT HOME)
  • GET REGULAR TRIMS (6-8 WEEKS) TO DECREASE SPLIT ENDS
  • STICK TO MINIMAL OR HEAT AVOIDANCE
  • MOISTURIZE DAILY WITH WATER/OIL/CONDITIONER IN SPRAY BOTTLE, A MOISTURIZING LEAVE IN CONDITIONER OR WATER BASED MOISTURIZER
  • USE SULFATE FREE CLEANSERS AND CONDITIONERS
  • BLONDE HAIR CARE (VIOLET SHAMPOOS HELP ALLEVIATE BRASSINESS)
  • STICK TO A WEEKLY CLEANSING REGIMEN (SHAMPOO + CONDITION)
  • STICK TO LOW TENSION STYLES
