Typically results last four to six weeks, gradually fading with shampooing and sun exposure. Use color-safe, sulfate-free products and cool water to prolong vibrancy. Schedule touch-up gloss treatments based on your color retention and styling routine for consistent shine and tone.

Use sulfate-free, color-safe shampoos and conditioners, limit heat styling, and rinse with cool water to preserve gloss. Schedule deep conditioning treatments regularly and return for touch-ups every four to six weeks. Ask your stylist for recommended retail products and styling tips.
