Please tell me. What you use instead of Wen that doesn't strip hairccolor?

I am an avid Wen user, but it's getting steep for my budget. Can you tell me what some of you have used that doesn't strip your hair colorado? My hairdresser is always astonished that the color she puts into my hair doesn't fade a lot.

I never found any shampoo that didn't end up fading your hair color.

Herbal Essences has a cleansing conditioner that's supposed to protect your hair color from fading. Maybe try that one?

Nick Chavez and Redken keep my blonde highlights looking good. The Aveda shampoos always made my lowlights go brassy/red.

I used to use Nick all the time. Your hair doesn't lose its color with sulfates? Tx!

Purerology is great. It's pricy, but it's extremely concented and for my long hair I only used about a quarter size of shampoo and conditioner.

Same here. I think it's inevitable no what you do. You can mix color glazes or even hair dye without the developer as part of a weekly treatment (say with Remoist or whatever you choose to use). Otherwise, fading is just the nature of coloring one's hair - unfortunately.
