Good news, this is easier than it sounds, simple habits and pro products can stretch your color between salon visits. In this article, you’ll learn why color fades, how to protect your hue daily, when to refresh with salon-grade formulas, and the best picks available at Camila’s Beauty Supply.

Why hair color fades

Color molecules are fragile, and everyday factors break them down. Understanding the main culprits helps you fight fading at its source.

Chemical fade

Sulfates and harsh detergents strip dye faster than gentle cleansers
Hot water opens the hair cuticle, letting pigments wash away
Frequent clarifying treatments remove buildup but also zap color

Environmental fade

UV rays break pigment bonds, dulling brightness
Chlorine and salt water can lift dye unevenly
Heat styling seals the cuticle closed but high temperatures weaken bonds

Protect your hue daily

Keeping your shade fresh starts at home. Build a routine that shields hair before it leaves the shower or steps outside.

Wash with a color-safe, sulfate-free shampoo (try Yellow Professional’s line, available at Camila’s Beauty Supply) (Yellow Professional)
Rinse with cool water to seal the cuticle and lock in pigment
Apply a UV-protectant spray or wear a wide-brimmed hat in bright sun
Limit heat styling, or use a heat protectant whenever you blow-dry or iron

Refresh with salon-grade dyes

When your root touch-up isn’t enough, ask your stylist about formulas designed to extend vibrancy.

Demipermanent dyes last longer than semi-permanent ones because they contain color precursors, oxidants, and alkalis that lock pigment in place (Salerm)
Gloss or toner services deposit fresh pigments without a full-color commitment, and they only take 20 to 30 minutes
