Preserving Your Cut Structure & Mirror Shine
To keep your color looking its best, I recommend getting regular touch-ups every 4-6 weeks.
This will help maintain the vibrancy of the color and prevent it from looking dull or brassy.
As for at-home care, I recommend using a color-protecting shampoo and conditioner to keep your color looking healthy and vibrant.
And for an added layer of protection, you can use a color-protecting spray or serum to help lock in the color and prevent it from fading too quickly.
