Sassy colours, vibrant shades like blue, rainbow & red, the latest balayage or just another classic blonde or brown – no matter what your hair colour is, just the feeling of doing something new itself is so amazing! With so many different types of hair colour available in the market, it is not only exciting but also confusing at the same time. Make sure you do proper research before you take on your hair colour steps so that you don’t end up with damaged hair.
Colouring your hair might feel like you’re acing your fashion game and quite literally, you are! But at the same time make sure you have picked the best hair colourant so that your hair looks fabulous and is well maintained too.
Slaying your hair fashion game is all great as long as you’re taking care of your hair in the right way and with the hair color products – both during & after the hair colour job is done.
Coloured hair tends to turn dull, lifeless and dry eventually as time passes by. So, we have put together a proper hair care regime with proper hair care combo options for you so that your hair is always happy, bouncy, strong & reflects who you are.
Oiling
Coloured hair needs extra care and we very well know that. When you colour your hair, make sure you make it a strict point to oil your hair every single time before you shampoo. In case you’re a super busy bee and don’t quite have the time to oil and chill; then we suggest that you pick the Iba Black Seed Therapy Hair Oil. This hair oil just needs 30 minutes to nourish and condition your hair.
Shampoo
It does not matter if you have coloured your hair or not but cleansing your hair and scalp is extremely important. Choosing the right shampoo for coloured hair is extremely crucial because it not only takes care of your hair but it also helps in retaining your hair colour. You can pick a vegan shampoo that is specially meant for protecting your hair colour. The best way to take care of hair that has been coloured is to limit your shampoo to at least once a week and if you have extremely oily hair and scalp then you can wash your hair twice a week but the washing days need to be at least 3 to 4 days apart. This will not only help you in maintaining your hair colour but it will also help in keeping dryness at bay.
Moisturization
Make sure you include a moisturizing hair mask at least once a week. Here’s how you can make your homemade hair mask; take 2 tablespoons of Iba Black Seed Therapy Conditioner, 2 teaspoons of olive oil, 2 teaspoons of pure coconut oil and 1 teaspoon of fresh & pure aloe vera pulp. You could also use Iba’s Pure Aloe Vera Gel. Mix all the ingredients and apply it directly on your scalp and work it up along your lengths. Leave it on for 20 minutes and then wash off with cold water and Black Seed Therapy Shampoo.

If you are not a big fan of DIY projects, then we have the best solution for you that you can add to your hair care regime. You can try the Iba Plant Keratin Hair Mask which has been specially designed to hydrate and moisturise your hair from within. All you need to do is wash your hair thoroughly with the Iba Plant Keratin Shampoo twice and then instead of your conditioner you need to apply your hair mask generously all over your hair and scalp. You need to leave this hair mask for at least 10 to 15 minutes and then wash it off with lukewarm water. This will not only hydrate your hair but it will also repair your hair from within. This is one of the best ways to take care of her that has been coloured frequently. Using this hair mask once a week is more than enough to take good care of your hair.
Conditioner
Never ever ever miss out on your conditioner! No matter how late you’re getting or how lazy you are, it does not matter what your reason is, always apply conditioner to freshly-shampooed hair, leave it on for just 2 minutes & rinse off! This tiny little step won’t just give your hair a nice happy bounce but will also take care of your coloured hair and make the colour last longer. The best way to apply your conditioner is to apply it only on your hair and not your scalp. Your conditioner is meant to take care of your hair and your shampoo is meant to cleanse and take care of your scalp.
You can opt for either the Iba Plant Keratin Conditioner or the Black Seed Therapy Conditioner to care for your tresses the best way! So, next time you colour your hair, make sure you’re taking care of both your colour game as well as your hair!
Hair Serum
Even the best hair colourant tends to dry or damage your hair when used regularly. So when you use different hair colour varieties on your hair, you also need to make sure that you use the right products that would take care of your hair. A hair serum is such a product. Your hair serum not only helps in coming down frizzy hair, but it also helps in hydrating and moisturising your hair from within. Different types of hair colour have different types of effect on your hair and for that you need a product that you can use anytime and anywhere to hydrate and moisturise your hair. A hair serum is perfect for this purpose. Not only this, your hair serum also helps in protecting your hair against heating tools that might burn or steam your hair while damaging it permanently. So make sure you always have your hair serum handy.
