Hair Colour Maintenance Guide – Keep Your Colour Vibrant

Hair Colour Maintenance Guide from Fergal Doyle Hair Bristol

Protecting your investment in professional hair colour is essential. At Fergal Doyle Hair in Bristol, we recommend: switching to sulphate-free shampoo, washing hair in cool water, limiting washing to every 2-3 days, using a weekly deep conditioning mask, and always applying heat protectant before styling. These simple steps can dramatically extend the life of your colour.

Best Products for Colour-Treated Hair

We recommend the Wella Professionals INVIGO Color Brilliance range for colour-treated hair. For blonde hair, a purple toning shampoo used once a week neutralises brassiness. For warm tones, avoid purple shampoo as it can dull the colour. Always ask your colourist for personalised product recommendations at your appointment.

How Often Should You Colour Your Hair?

For balayage, most clients visit every 12-16 weeks. For foil highlights, every 6-10 weeks is typical. Root colour and all-over colour appointments are usually every 4-8 weeks depending on how quickly roots grow and how much contrast is visible. Your Fergal Doyle colourist will advise on the ideal schedule for your specific colour service.
