How to Keep Your Red Hair Looking Amazing
Use a Colour-Safe Shampoo
Red hair fades faster than other colours, so using a colour-locking shampoo is essential.
Try this:
Deep Condition Weekly
Red hair can be drier than other shades, so using a weekly hair mask keeps it soft and shiny.
Our favourites:
Protect from Heat & Sun Damage
Heat styling and sun exposure can make red hair fade quickly. Always use a heat protectant before styling and consider a UV shield spray.
Best picks:
Refresh Your Colour Between Salon Visits
Red can fade fast, but a colour-refreshing gloss can help maintain the vibrancy between appointments.
Try: ORIBE Glaze for Beautiful Color
Avoid Overwashing
Washing your hair too frequently can strip the colour and cause it to fade faster. Try washing only two to three times a week and use a dry shampoo in between washes.
Best dry shampoo: ORIBE Gold Lust Dry Shampoo
