Colored or dyed hair needs special care and the use of appropriate products. If you're looking for a color-safe shampoo , keep reading because we'll give you some recommendations for choosing the one that's best for your hair.

Characteristics of colored or dyed hair

Once you decide to change your natural hair color, your hair care routine changes, and so do the characteristics of your hair. When choosing a color-safe shampoo , keep these characteristics of dyed hair in mind:

• It becomes more sensitive to external factors such as the sun, pollution, wind, chlorine, sea salt or sulfates and parabens in some hair products.

• It tends to break more easily.

• It dries out easily and needs more hydration.

• It can gradually lose brightness and luminosity.

What is a color safe shampoo

A color-safe shampoo is, ideally, sulfate- and paraben-free and made with natural ingredients. Its formula has a super-hydrating and repairing effect, perfect for caring for color-treated hair, which tends to be more sensitive.

A safe shampoo for dyed or colored hair is best when:

• It does not have sulfates, parabens or other chemical agents that can mistreat your hair.
• They have formulas with protection from ultraviolet rays.
• High moisturizing and nourishing effect.
• Natural ingredients.

Practical tips for caring for colored hair 

In addition to using a color-safe shampoo, you can also take some extra precautions to keep your dyed hair healthy, properly hydrated, and shiny.

Use the right products for colored hair

When choosing hair care products, you must take every precaution to select shampoos, conditioners, creams, masks, and any other product that moisturizes your hair, renews it with each wash, promotes its growth, and keeps it strong and shiny.

When looking for a color-safe shampoo , you may find what's known as a toner, an oily shampoo containing dye and hydrogen peroxide. This product is designed to maintain the tone of color-treated hair.

However, be careful! Before using any toner, look for products with natural ingredients that nourish your hair, even if it's already colored. At eva+avo, we've created formulas for all hair types using the properties of ingredients like avocado , rosemary oil , and cocoa.

Protect yourself from the sun

Prolonged sun exposure can affect your hair color, so protect it with a color-safe shampoo and sunscreen. You can also wear hats or scarves to further protect your hair while you're in the sun.

Apply a hair mask once a week

Hair masks can help your color-treated hair regain its shine and vitality. Their moisturizing and nourishing effect will keep the color vibrant, while your hair grows healthy.

Opt for leave-in hair treatments

Products like conditioners or leave-in creams can be the perfect complement when using a color-safe shampoo . Your color-treated or dyed hair will enjoy a longer-lasting moisturizing effect, looking shiny and silky.

Wash your colored hair less often

Washing your colored hair too often can cause the pigment to fade. Wash your color-treated hair every other day with a color-safe shampoo , and you'll notice the color lasts longer and stays vibrant and shiny.

Use essential oils for hair

Essential oils for hair are a powerful tool for maintaining healthy, strong, shiny, and silky hair. And of course, this is no exception for color-treated hair.

Use an oil daily as the final touch of your skincare routine. In addition to protecting your color, offering shine and hydration, your hair will grow healthier and will be easier to comb, eliminating frizz and repairing broken hair.
