After Coloring:
When shampooing your hair in between retouch applications, use Creme of Nature Sulfate-Free Moisture & Shine Shampoo and Intensive Conditioning Treatment to keep your color vibrant and to prevent fading.
To maintain well-hydrated colored hair, infuse Creme of Nature with Argan Oil Treatment when conditioning and apply Creme of Nature Anti-Humidity Gloss & Shine Mist for added shine. For naturals, Creme of Nature Butter-Licious Curls and Pure-Licious Co-Wash is a great combination to provide great hydration for curls and color protection.
