Maintain Vibrant Hair Colour in Winter: Top Tips & Tricks
As the mercury dips and the days grow shorter, your luscious locks can often bear the brunt of the cold, leaving your once-vibrant hair colour looking a tad lacklustre. But fret not, for Instaglam brings you a treasure trove of tips to keep your tresses as vivid as a winterberry through the chilliest months.
1. Moisturize Your Mane
Winter's harsh winds can strip your hair of moisture, leading to faded colour. Counteract this with a weekly deep conditioning treatment, a boon for parched strands. A dollop of nourishment goes a long way in preserving the richness of your hue.
2. Choose Colour-Safe Products
Invest in shampoos and conditioners that are champions of coloured hair. Look for products that are free from sulfates and parabens which can prematurely wash away your hair's vibrant pigment.
3. Rinse with Cool Water
Whereas a hot shower might be comforting, rinsing your hair with cooler water can prevent your colour from washing down the drain. It seals the hair's cuticle, locking in your colour for prolonged vibrancy.
4. Limit Heat Styling
Heat styling tools are notorious for fading hair colour. Embrace your hair's natural texture or, if you must style, ensure you use a heat protectant to shield your strands. For those seeking at-home beauty treatments, Instaglam's professionals can style your hair with minimal damage.
5. Protective Styling
Winter calls for hats and scarves, which, while cosy, can cause breakage and colour fading through friction. Opt for silk-lined hats or use a silk scarf to protect your hair from the elements.
6. Hydrate from the Inside Out
Hydration isn't just about what you put on your hair; it's also about what you consume. Drinking ample water and eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals will help maintain your hair's health and colour.
7. The Professional Touch
Regular trims and professional colour treatments can keep your hair looking its best. With Instaglam's mobile beauty services, you can have top-notch care delivered right to your doorstep.
8. Avoid Chlorine
Chlorine is a colour killer. If you're a swimmer, wear a swim cap, or pre-soak your hair in clean water before taking the plunge to prevent your hair from absorbing chlorinated water.
9. Deep Conditioning Treatments
As mentioned earlier, a deep conditioning routine is paramount. Opt for a mask or oil treatment that caters to coloured hair, ensuring it stays hydrated and your colour, electric.
10. Sun Protection
Even in winter, the sun's UV rays can fade your hair colour. A leave-in conditioner with UV protection can serve as a shield against the sun's dulling effects.
