Hair Color Maintenance with Kerastase and Ojon

Kerastase-Chroma-Sensitive I just had my hair colored with a color system that uses no amonia to deliver the color. It’s called Inoa from L’Oreal Professional (review coming later this week). As far as color goes, I decided to go with the color of the season, copper. And I love it! It looks just like this color model Lydia Hurst has on the March 2011 cover of Elle Mexico. Gorg! Anyway, with a new head of hair color, comes the time to assess the latest shampoos, conditioners and hair styling products to keep it lush and vibrant.

KERASTASE Chroma Sensitive ($43/6.67oz @ amazon.com) – this one is one part cleansers and three parts conditioner. Even if you use a color-safe shampoo, this one doesn’t strip the color as much as even those. Use this one the first three shampoos after coloring and then alternate each time with your color-safe shamp.

For shampoo and conditioner, I’ve been all over OJON’s new Color Sustain Color Revealing Shampoo ($22/8.44oz) and Color Sustain Color Revealing Conditioner ($23/8.44oz) that will help maintain your new vibrant color from water-induced fading for up to 40 washes. Tah-dow! Water and any kind of cleansers will fade color fast so if you can cut down on how often you clean your strands and use something like this duo to gently clean them, you will save some money and time in the end.

And they also have a Color Protecting Cream ($24/4.2oz) and Gloss Finishing Hair Spray ($23.50/7.4oz) as part of the collection so if you’re really serious about your investment, invest a little further. All @ birchbox.com.

This kit contains: Shine & Protect Shampoo (8.5oz), Shine & Protect Conditioner (8.5oz), Leave-in Glossing Cream (2oz) and Glossing Mist (.85oz). $44 only @ birchbox.com.

Ojon Enhances Your Hair Color and Keeps Away the Frizzies

Ojon-Restorative-Leave-in-Treatment-for-Brunettes-2 The goal of every fall is to keep the frizzy hair away, right? Temperatures crash and moisture is sucked right out of the air and your hair. OJON just put out Restorative Leave-in Treatment and the timing is perfect. It claims to reduce the frizz up to 88% (how do they measure a percentage like this, I’ll never know!) Anyway, what this one has that your other frizz reducers have is a color enhancer – one made just for redheads, blondes and brunettes. So while you are using it for frizzy, the nourishing ingredients of Swa+ Oil, Macadamia, Cupuacu, Murumuru and Shea Butter hydrate help repair any pre-existing damage. They claim a 33% improvement in the conditioner of dry and/or damaged hair. Again, how do they …

 

And the color kick?  Like all the products in their line, they really go the extra mile in using ones you’d never expect. For example, the one I used for Brown Hair has Chinese Reishi Mushroom and Magnolia Bark for their antioxidant properties and both have an espresso-tinted colorant to them. In this case, it really is, what WILL they think of next? Great product. $29/4.2oz @ ojon.com.
