Some of you may not to hear this or just think its bullcrap and its all about us stylist wanting to make money and trust me we all like to make money but the reason why I try and drill this into my clients heads especially my color clients is because it does make a huge difference! If you spend money on getting your hair colored then spend it on good shampoo! I hear clients bitch so much about their hair looking faded or dried out from coloring it and will actually blame the stylist for ruining their hair when in most cases (you see I say most cases) it's about how the client treats their hair. Certain shampoos with strip color right out of the hair and most people shampoo their hair everyday which is also not good for your hair, Hell I was one of those people because I thought my hair would get too greasy but when I was in my pinup look washing your hair everyday just wasn't a option I would lose hours of my life and just ruin my hair so I was forced to just recycle my hairstyles and in time my scalp adjusted and my hair color lasted 4 times as long and the condition of it improved, BUT it also depends on what you use on your hair, you use Pert and Head and Shoulders and your color will get stripped right outta your hair. The cheaper brands have harsh sulfate's in them that strip the hair and the conditioners have petroleum in them that coats the hair to make it look all silky but in time builds up and your hair makes it limp. Using a color safe shampoo and conditioner is the way to go and trust I get that product can be super expensive at times but there are places that have amazing sales (Regis Salons and Ulta have great package deals through out the year, holiday time is the best!) my personal favorite shampoo and conditioner that I use for colored hair is Joico Smooth Cure it has no sulfate's in it so it saves color and not to mention it does give your hair a great defriz. Now with no sulfate shampoos you don't get a big lather so people want to use more but DON'T you will be wasting your product it is getting your hair clean. Now if you really can not afford the professional stuff I have found Dove and Neutrogena shampoo's are good and gentle and have ones for color treated hair. Basically what I'm saying if you pay good money to get your hair done invest or do research on keeping it looking fabulous!
