How Do You Make Red Hair Dye Last Longer?
Want to make that perfect new shade of red last? Follow these directions to get the most longevity out of your shade. Wash your hair the day before you plan to color your hair. Wait at least 24 hours after shampooing before you color. Make sure you do not apply conditioner. Hair with excessive conditioner does not absorb the color as well. After coloring make sure every time you shampoo you apply conditioner. Red hair color fades quicker than other shades, and you want to make sure your hair is well conditioned because dry hair loses color quicker. Try to avoid daily shampooing, it is best to shampoo about three times a week when trying to maintain color. Dry shampoos can absorb oil if needed in between washings. Avoid heat styling and blow drying as much as possible. If you must heat style try to use a styling product designed to protect hair from heat styling.
