How Do I Choose The Perfect Shade Of Peach Hair colour?
To keep this pastel shade as vibrant as it can be, we recommend pre-lightening before you add any colour, especially if your hair is naturally dark. The lighter your hair, the more vibrant the colour will be. We offer some great lightening kits like the Strawberry Leopard™ Lighten Me Up Kit, that includes everything you need to get started.
After you lighten, go in with a fun peachy shades, like ion® colour Brilliance® Permanent Brights Salmon Crème Hair colour. If you need help finding the perfect shade, be sure to reach out to a Sally Associate for the best tips and tricks on everything hair colour.
Not ready to completely commit to peach? No problem! Don’t sweat about dying your whole head – you can always add fun a pop of colour with dip dye on your ends, or a money piece for stylish strands.
How Do I Keep My Peach Hair colour From Fading?
Like any other colour, make sure that you use cool water when washing your hair (or at the very least rinse with it), along with colour-protecting shampoo and conditioner to keep it from fading faster. We recommend ion® colour Defense® Sulfate-Free Shampoo & After-colour Sealer to extend your colour while increasing your hair’s softness and shine. You can also use a colour-depositing mask to help keep your colour looking fresh, like our Wella Peach Blush colour Fresh Mask.
It’s also important to protect your hair from any heat and sun damage that could fade your colour faster. It might be a good idea to put down the heat tools, or at least use them in moderation with the help of heat-protectant products. We recommend our very own Strawberry Leopard™ UV & Heat Protector Cream for the best of both worlds of protection.
