Shampoo for colored hair is mega important. Colored hair needs extra careful care. Dyeing your hair means that your hair gets a chemical treatment. This can be harmful to the condition of your hair. Your hair becomes mega dry from such a treatment, with all the consequences that entails. In addition to a good shampoo, there are other factors that you can take into account if you have colored hair. For example, it is important not to wash colored hair too often. Water contains minerals that fade the color of your hair. A special, caring shampoo for colored hair ensures that your color stays bright for as long as possible. Colored hair is not only affected by washing too often. Pollution, UV radiation and heat from the hair dryer are also culprits that fade the color and reduce the shine of the hair.
How do I care for colored hair?
When caring for colored hair, start with the basics, namely a good shampoo. A shampoo that is tailored to the needs of colored hair and ensures optimal color retention. Haarspullen.nl sells products from the brands Biosilk, L'Oreal, CHI and many more. In addition to choosing the right shampoo, there are many more things you can pay attention to. We have listed a number of important DO's and DON'TS for you below:

How to keep your hair color beautiful for longer?
In addition to a cleansing color shampoo, there are a ton of shampoos with a special formula that refreshes your color. And by that we actually mean: a special formula that brings your hair color to a level of perfection! These types of shampoos can be divided into 3 different categories:
Toning:Toning is a process in which a color rinse or toner is used to neutralize or correct unwanted shades or color differences in the hair. We often talk about a silver shampoo. A silver shampoo is used to neutralize unwanted yellow tones in bleached hair. But a toning shampoo can also be used to correct redness or orange tones in brown hair. Hair toning is a non-permanent color treatment that does not lighten the hair, but only neutralizes or corrects the existing color. A toner is therefore a type of shampoo that is applied to wet hair and rinsed out after a few minutes.
Color refresh/add: These are mainly shampoos that add extra color to the hair. It is washable and usually disappears after a few (15) washes. Very nice for the summer if you want a pastel pink tint in your blonde hair for example!
Why is dyeing your hair damaging?
Hair dye contains chemicals that can cause damage to the hair and scalp. The most common chemicals in hair dye are ammonia and hydrogen peroxide which oxidize the hair color, but can also damage the hair shaft and irritate the scalp. In addition, some hair colors may contain ingredients such as PPD and resorcinol, which can cause allergic reactions. Regularly coloring your hair can therefore lead to dry, brittle hair, hair loss, and scalp irritation.
