I color then wash the same day

I wash my hair the next day. No harm done. I've been doing that for years.

I have high ""lights"" and low ""lights"". My stylist washes it right after she high lights it.

I wash it after three days of hairspray. If I'm off I don't use hairspray unless I go out.

Initial full head color…wash in four days, there after twice a week.

About 2 days. I can't go any longer without washing my hair as my scalp is oily.

A stylist told me you only wait to wash hair after a perm. No need to wait days to wash hair after coloring it.

2 days here...after that, I wash it 2-3 times a week max. I've been told, by both my colorist and stylist, that my hair is very healthy....I attribute it to infrequent washings, good conditioning and heat-styling it only a few times a month. I have long hair and will often wear it in a high bun, ponytail or braid...this helps to ease up on the heat-styling...especially in summer. Wow, I really digressed on this question lol!!!

The instructions that come with the color I use say to wash it right away. I use a product from Sally's. I recall when I had my color done at a salon, they washed it immediately.

I usually always have my hair colored at a salon. They always wash it after it has been colored.

I wash mine the next day...always have, even when I colored it myself using a semi-permanent color, and it never causes a problem. Wonder if it depends on the type of color, and even the type of hair?

I wash mine in the morning before I go to the salon like I always do. I wash it the following day in the morning like I always do.

No change. It doesn't hurt a thing.
