Overview

Sunflower extract in this shampoo helps shield strands from UV, one of the main causes of color fading. Wash colored hair with it to help the dye last longer and leave a shinier finish.

Fade protection is the whole purpose here, aimed at people who invest in salon or home color. The listing gives very little else, so anyone checking for sulfates, scent or bottle size has nothing to go on from this page.

Who it's for

Made for people with dyed or highlighted hair who want their color to last between appointments. Those with ingredient restrictions should wait for a fuller listing.

Performance notes

Color fades from washing and from sunlight breaking down dye molecules; the sunflower extract targets the UV side. How much it slows fading still depends on wash frequency and water temperature, which the shampoo cannot control.
