Long-Lasting Hair Colors
By Didi Gluck
Question: I spend a lot on haircolor-how can I make it last longer?
Answer: Stylists used to tell you to wait two days to shampoo after a color treatment. Speaking from experience, I'd make it three. You want the pigment to fully penetrate and seal itself in the hair shaft before you wash. Between treatments, you might also consider a color depositing shampooo and conditioner that refresh color by removing luster-busting buildup-and enrich hair without dulling the base.
