Hair: Tips to look after your coloured hair

• Use an intensive moisturiser at least once a week on your hair to boost the moisture content and keep it shiny.
• Massage your scalp as you shampoo - it will help improve circulation and loosen any tense muscles.
• Don't overexpose your coloured hair to the sun or it'll dry out and fade. If you're at the beach or by the pool cover up with a hat or at least stay under the umbrella.
• Give your hair a last minute blast of cold water before you step out of the shower - it'll help keep it super shiny.
• Always comb through damp hair gently (always towel dry first) - your locks are at their most fragile when they're wet!
• Make sure your shampoo is gentle to minimise any colour fade and is specially formulated for coloured hair and contains moisturising ingredients.
• Always use conditioner on coloured hair as it needs the extra attention!
• Try not to OVERuse heating appliances on you hair.
• Eat food that is rich in vitamin B plus plenty of tasty fruit and vegetables.
