Shampoo less often
Shampoo less often One of the cardinal rules of hair color is not to over-cleanse, so Bodt says it's a good idea to start shampooing your hair less often — like, twice a week, max. Greasy roots? Your cleansing routine might have something to do with that, too. "Some people complain their hair gets so oily and you have to get past that point because a lot of times it's the over-cleansing that causes your scalp to overproduce oil. Shampooing less will help that die down," she says. Bodt favors R+Co Gemstone Color Shampoo, $24, and Gemstone Color Conditioner, $25, and loves the brand's Palm Springs Pre-Shampoo Treatment Mask, $29, as extra insurance.
