HOW TO CARE FOR COLOR HAIR

As always there are a lot of information out there,  so I will keep it simple.  The first thing you want to do is realize that hair color is really an investment  in our appearance,  and we all want to look great.   One way to help keep your hair looking great is to wait a least  two or three days to wash your hair after coloring it,  to keep color alive longer.  The second thing is to use a color safe shampoo and conditioner ,  because using the wrong product will stripe your color and make your hair dull or fade your color.  I bet you didn't know that hot water  can fade your color,  so wash in lukewarm water.   Note:  Lukewarm water is also great for wigs and extensions.   You should always protect your hair from chlorine which can change and damage your hair on the outer layers of the strands. 
Color hair needs extra moisture,  so do a deep conditioner.  Here are a few natural oils and products
that can help you achieve the moisture in your hair, use avocado or avocado oil,  almond oil and vitamin E,  and macadamia oil.  You can also use natural hair serum that you can create or purchase.  I would suggest letting these oils soak into your hair for 10 minutes,  use a cap.  There is one other thing to mention that can damage your hair, the sunlight.  To protect your hair from the sun,  use products that have UVA or UVB filter to protect your hair.  These are easy breezy ways to keep your hair healthy and your color looking good.
