5 Haircare Tips For Coloured And Chemically Treated Hair

While monsoon brings cozy times with chai and pakoras at home, unfortunately it doesn’t spare much love for your hair. Most of us fall prey to the harshness of the weather and face various hair related issues like hair fall, frizzy hair and greasy dandruff. These problems occur due to high humidity level and high hydrogen level in the hair during the monsoon season and calls for extra care and love for the tresses.

However, you need to be even more careful and take special care if you have coloured hair. To help you maintain and flaunt lustrous and healthy coloured hair during monsoon, we share some guidelines from Sameer Hamdare, Zonal Technical Manager at Streax Professional – India’s leading premium product range for hair care, colour and style, specially crafted for salon professionals and technicians (to bring out the best in your hair):

Use a colour-safe shampoo for coloured hair. It is advisable to use a Paraben -free as well as colour-safe shampoo. We recommend you use Streax Professional - Argan Secret Colour protect Shampoo for protection of hair colour and prolonging the vibrance. The Argan Secrets Colour protect Shampoo cleanses, nourishes, and helps protect and preserve the vibrancy of the hair colour for longer. The nourishing shampoo helps keep coloured hair soft, lustrous, bright and radiant. The shampoo ensures that hair colour doesn’t fade while washing thus locking in the hair colour and maintaining its freshness thus preventing dullness post hair colour.

After hair wash, always use a conditioner but make sure you don’t apply conditioner on the scalp. A good conditioner helps maintain moisture retention, reduces hair frizz, reduces tangling of hair and reduces the chances of colour fading in hair. Apply Streax Professional – Argan secret colour Protect Conditioner to see best results.

Use cold water to wash out conditioner from your hair as it helps in closing the cuticle and pores in the scalp. It also helps add lustre and shine, which is due to the closed cuticles and sealing of the hair’s moisture. While warm water creates frizz, cold water tends to flatten the hair. Try to use leave-in conditioner when the hair is wet, or you can use a serum when the hair is wet too. Use Streax Professional – Leave in Conditioner for quick results.

Don’t over-wash your hair. Over-washing your hair can take away the hair moisture and lead to dreaded dryness and brittleness. It can also cause fading away of hair colour too soon, hair breakage, flaky scalp, dull and lacklustre hair. Never style your hair when it is still wet. Wet hair is even more fragile and breaks very easily.

Avoid using mechanical tools such as blow dryer, iron and because these may remove or fade the colour faster. In case of an urgent situation where you need to use blow dryer or iron, it is recommended that you use a heat protector or a colour protect serum – Streax professional Argan secret colour protect serum with colour reinforce technology and nourishing argan oil acts as a shield for your hair colour Avoid using blow dryer to dry your hair. Letting hair dry naturally is good for their good health. Hair Dryers can take out your hair's natural shin, strength and moisture.

Sameer further adds, “I am often asked if it’s safe to colour hair during monsoon since we tend to face hair related issues in this season. My answer is that, like any other season, monsoon is also a perfect time to colour your hair. Having said that, coloured and chemically treated hair need a little extra pampering from you – so, don’t hesitate to shower all your love to your precious hair.”
