Keep Your Hair Colour Vibrant All Year: Essential Tips for the British Seasons In the ever-changing canvas of the UK skies, your hair colour is a personal statement that requires meticulous care to stay vibrant through the capricious British seasons. Whether you're flaunting sun-kissed highlights or parading an audacious shade of crimson, maintaining your mane's magnificence is a year-round endeavour. At Instaglam, we understand the intricacies of at-home beauty treatments, and we're here to guide you through preserving that stunning hue from the blustery winds of January to the mellow sun of August.

Winter Care for Coloured Hair

The crisp chill of winter may bring a rosy glow to your cheeks, but it's no friend to your hair colour. Combat the dryness with a weekly deep-conditioning treatment to lock in moisture and keep the colour from fading.

Steaming hot showers might be tempting after a cold day, but they can strip your hair of essential oils. Opt for lukewarm water instead to prevent your colour from dulling.

Spring Renewal for Your Tresses

As new blooms make their debut, it might be time to snip those ends. Spring is ideal for a fresh trim to remove split ends that can make your colour look tired.

The shy spring sun can be deceptive. Protect your hair with products that have UV filters, ensuring the vibrancy of your hair colour doesn't wane under the rays.

Summer Vibrance: Guarding Against the Sun

Hydration is key during the balmy summer months. Drink plenty of water and consider leave-in conditioners to keep your hair supple and your colour radiant.

Chlorine is a coloured hair's nemesis. Before taking a dip in the pool, wet your hair with clean water or wear a cap to prevent the chlorinated water from altering your hair colour.

Autumn Preparation: Transitioning with Care

As the leaves turn, you might find your hair colour needs a refresh. Autumn is a perfect time to add some lowlights or adjust your colour to match the season’s earthy tones.

The drop in humidity can leave your hair thirsting for moisture. Use oils or leave-in treatments to maintain the lustre of your hair colour.

Year-Round Tips for Colour Longevity

  • Choose colour-safe shampoos and conditioners dedicated to coloured hair.
  • Reduce the frequency of washes to prevent premature colour fading.
  • When styling, use heat protectant sprays to shield your hair from damage.
  • Regularly treat your hair to a gloss treatment to enhance shine and colour depth.

For the ultimate in convenience and expertise, Instaglam's mobile beauty services bring the salon to you. Our hair stylists are adept at creating and maintaining a colour that not only suits the season but also your unique style.

Natural Remedies for Colour Retention

  1. Apple cider vinegar rinses can help with shine and pH balance.
  2. DIY masks with avocado or coconut oil can nourish and protect coloured hair.
  3. Infusing your diet with antioxidants can help defend against colour fade.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Overusing dry shampoos, which can dull hair colour.
  • Excessive use of hot tools without protection.
  • Skipping regular trims, leading to split ends and uneven colour.
