I use Alterna Shampoo for color treated hair. I am a 7 on the color scale with fine hair and really have a lot of trouble with the color fading. How will the TSV work for color treated hair?

I have color treated hair and use Alterna bamboo shampoo and conditioner. My color does not fade at all that I've noticed. I've never tried the volume spray, but it looks interesting.

I ordered this today and can't wait to try it. I currently use Wen and every now and then will venture out and use other products (I am a product junkie) but I like that this has no sulfates. I really like Wen and my hairdresser says that since I've been using it my hair is in better shape and the color stays true but I am kind of disappointed that my hair doesn't look full and luxurious like the models' hair.

Alterna products are definitely safe for color treated hair. In my case, they have preserved if not extended my color. The value of the TSV is good for the sizes you get. You can't buy those sizes at retail and a regular size bottle of is $22 each for just the shampoo and conditioner. I've use all 3 Bamboo lines (Color Hold+, Luminous Shine & Volumizing). All are quality products that left my hair in excellent condition and not flat and gross like WEN did. Plus, Alterna products are very concentrated so you don't need much product at all. This kit will last me 8 months at least.

These products have become my favorite hair product in the past month since I purchased the TSV early. I've used the volumizing spray for a year and it is the only product on the market that gives my baby fine hair volume without making it sticky, stiff or tangled. It feels like it conditions but makes my hair fluffy and thick looking instead if flat. Wen works for my hair only WITH the Alterna volume spray, otherwise WEN leaves it too flat and limp. The shampoo and conditioner in this set are amazing. they are extremely concentrated so will last a lomg time which is good because my husband likes them too. I'm on AD and may purchase 2 the next shipment to stockup because these will be expensive for me once the TSV price is gone. I wish I'd know it was the TSV today! I'd have been on here earlier raving about it!
