How long should you stay out of the sun after your hair has been colored/highlighted? Also, are there preventive methods to maintaining your color once you do go outdoors?

- Kristin B., New York, NY.

Thank you for these great questions, Kristin! As hair color can be quite tricky, I've asked renowned
celebrity colorist Rita Hazan to answer your query:

There are such great products out there containing SPF, so I think you should go outside and enjoy your life. Just spray on some Phyto Plage Sun Veil, my favorite, and it will help protect your color from the sun. If your color fades, you can always go back to your colorist for a gloss as well.

Hope this helps!
