A GUIDE FOR LONG LASTING, HEALTHY HAIR.
KEEP YOUR COLOUR LOOKING FRESH
To maintain the life and shine of your salon colour, it’s essential to follow the right aftercare routine. Here are our expert tips:
Wash With Care
-
Always use stylist-recommended shampoo and conditioner designed for coloured hair.
-
Shampoo twice: the first wash removes dirt and product build-up, while the second ensures a deep clean.
-
Apply conditioner only from mid-lengths to ends—avoid the roots to prevent unnecessary oiliness.
-
The more often you wash, the faster your colour fades. Try to limit shampooing to keep your colour vibrant longer.
Treatments That Protect
-
Use a bond-building treatment and/or deep conditioning mask once a week to restore strength—especially after lightening services.
-
Always use a heat protectant before styling. Heat above 185°C can strip colour and damage your hair. (For reference, a BBQ is only 100°C!)
Heat Styling & Tools
-
Never exceed 185°C with straighteners, curlers, or wands.
-
We stock professional GHD & Cloud Nine irons (from $340) with ceramic plates and adjustable temperatures—ideal for fine hair needing a lower setting.
Protect From Sun & Water
-
Just like skin, your hair needs UV protection. Use a UV shield to prevent sun damage and fading.
-
Minimise exposure to chlorine and salt water, which can strip colour and react with lightener.
-
If swimming, apply a leave-in conditioner beforehand to reduce damage.
