The same theory applies to freshly coloured hair. Bouncy locks without a hint of grey look spectacular for the first few weeks, but eventually you see the colour fading. Well, what do you do to make your expensive hair colour last longer? Allow us to elaborate!
- Experts say that moisture in your hair helps it to hold colour better. So, be smart and use your gym sessions to strengthen the colour. Massage the strands of your hair with coconut oil and braid it while you exercise. The heat produced in your body will lock in the colour!
- Mix one part of apple cider vinegar with three parts of water. Use this to rinse your hair after your normal shampoo and conditioner routine. Apple cider vinegar freshens the highlights and boosts the shine of your colour.

- If you love sporting coloured hair, know that super-hot showers open the cuticles and wash away the dye. So, be wise and opt for room-temperature water for your tresses.
- Protecting your hair colour from the harsh sun is another fundamental rule to make it stay for a longer time. Take the help of a stylish hat or scarf.
- On your next visit to the salon, ask your expert about the balayage hair colour. This technique of hair colouring which is done by the hands ensures that your hair looks on point even while the growing out stage. So, if you can't make it to the salon in time, you won't be compromising on the beauty of your tresses!

- Pool lovers, stay away from the chlorine in the water! Chlorine strips hair of its colour; so ensure that you're making good use of a shower cap before taking a dip.
