Caring For Coloured Hair
Caring for Coloured Hair at Combers Inside-Out Hairdressing Salon, Taunton
We’ve all been there – sitting in the salon chair, watching as your stylist weaves magic with a hair colour transformation, and leaving with that perfect hue, whether it’s a rich brunette, a sun-kissed blonde, or something bold like a vibrant purple or deep teal. But what happens once you’ve left the salon with your stunning new shade? Caring for coloured hair is essential to keeping that fresh-out-of-the-salon look for as long as possible, and here at Combers Inside-Out Hairdressing Salon in Taunton, we’ve got all the tips, tricks, and expert advice to help you.
Let’s not split hairs about this – looking after coloured hair requires a bit more TLC than untreated locks, but with a little care, your hair can stay healthy, glossy, and vibrant for weeks to come. And the best part? It’s easier than you might think!
The Davines Difference
At Combers, we use Davines hair colour, and there’s a good reason why. Davines is known for its luxurious, high-quality hair care products, and their colour range is no exception. Whether you're aiming for a subtle touch-up or a bold new look, Davines colour provides long-lasting vibrancy while nourishing the hair from within. But what sets it apart from the sea of other hair colour brands?
First off, Davines takes sustainability seriously – all their products are made with natural ingredients and a commitment to ethical production methods. Their colours are enriched with protective and conditioning ingredients, such as quinoa protein and natural extracts, ensuring that your hair feels as good as it looks. The formula locks in moisture, so coloured hair doesn’t just look shinier, it stays softer and healthier over time.
Davines products are also kind to the environment (and your scalp!) because they are free from harmful chemicals like ammonia and parabens.
Keeping Your Colour Fresh
Now that your hair has been treated with Davines, and you're stepping out of Combers Inside-Out Hairdressing Salon with that fabulous new colour, what can you do to keep it looking fresh for as long as possible?
One of the key steps to caring for coloured hair is to use a shampoo and conditioner specifically designed for it. Regular shampoos can strip away colour faster, especially if they contain sulphates. Davines has a range of shampoos and conditioners specially designed for colour-treated hair, packed with antioxidants that protect against environmental damage and free radicals, which are major culprits in fading colour. Make sure to use lukewarm water when washing your hair; hot water can open up the hair cuticle, causing the colour to fade faster.
It’s also a good idea to avoid washing your hair too frequently. Two to three times a week is generally a good rule of thumb. In between washes, dry shampoo can be a lifesaver, keeping your hair fresh without the need for water.
And don’t forget about the sun! While we all love a bit of sunshine (especially in Taunton’s occasional heatwaves), the sun can be harsh on coloured hair, fading your vibrant tones. If you know you’ll be outside for long periods, a hat or a hair product with UV protection can keep your colour intact.
Regular Salon Visits – Your Hair’s Best Friend
If you’re serious about maintaining your colour, then regular visits to Combers Inside-Out Hairdressing Salon are a must! Our expert stylists recommend touch-ups every six to eight weeks, depending on your hair’s natural growth rate and the type of colour you’ve chosen. Keeping up with these appointments will ensure that your roots are refreshed, and your overall colour stays vibrant.
Perhaps your colour needs more than just a top-up? Or maybe you're thinking of changing things up with a new shade altogether? Our colour specialists at Combers are always happy to help you. Whether you're looking for a subtle shift or a bold new transformation, we’ll work with you to find the perfect colour that complements your style and skin tone.
