My last hair-color appointment may have been in May, but you’d never know it given the current state of my bright blonde highlights… in October. I’d like to thank Color Wow Color Security Shampoo for that. The sulfate- and silicone-free shampoo cleanses dyed strands without ever dulling them, which is truly a feat. Of course, you don’t have to have professional dyed hair to reap the benefits of this shampoo—it works on all hair types!—but it certainly offers extra TLC for those with salon-made color.

To use, apply a dollop (or two, depending on your hair type) to wet hair and massage it into a lather, moving from the scalp to your ends. Rinse and repeat, if necessary. Then follow it up with your favorite conditioner or hair mask to soften strands post-cleanse.
