Bright-colored hair colors, such as pastels (lavender, pastel pink, cerulean blue, peach), often fade faster than vivid shades (blue, bordeaux, violet, aquamarine) due to the lower saturation of the color on the hair. Vivids typically last 12-15 washes, while pastels usually last up to 6 washes, offering the chance to experiment with new shades without a long-term commitment.
Frequent washing is another significant factor that contributes to the rapid fading of bright hair colors. Each time you wash your hair, some of the color molecules are rinsed away. To combat this, it is advisable to reduce the frequency of hair washing and use cold water instead of hot, as cold water helps seal the hair cuticle and preserve the color. Additionally, using a hair styling spray can help lock in the color.
Exposure to sunlight can also accelerate the fading process. UV rays break down the chemical bonds in the hair color, causing the color to deteriorate and lose its intensity. Wearing a hat or using a UV-protectant spray can help shield your hair from the sun's damaging effects. Moreover, proper hair care routines play a crucial role in preserving bright hair colors. Reducing the use of heat styling tools, such as blow dryers, flat irons, and curling irons, can help prolong the life of your color. If you must use heat styling tools, always apply a heat protectant spray and a hair repair serum to ensure the color is locked in and minimize damage and color loss.
