Can it be used for chemically colour-treated hair; like sulphate-free shampoos?

Asked by Female, 58 · 6 months ago

Apollo Pharmacy Shikakai Shampoo is not sulfate-free and contains SLES, so it’s not ideal for chemically colour-treated hair if you want to preserve your colour for longer. If colour retention is a priority, go for a sulfate-free shampoo specifically labelled safe for colour-treated hair.

When considering if a shampoo is suitable for chemically color-treated hair, the key points to focus on include whether the shampoo is free from harsh detergents like sulfates, which can strip color and moisture. Sulfate-free shampoos are generally gentler and help maintain color vibrancy and hair health. To determine if your shampoo is similar, check the ingredient list for sulfates such as sodium lauryl sulfate or sodium laureth sulfate. Additionally, look for labels indicating it is safe for color-treated hair or designed to be gentle. If the shampoo contains moisturizing agents and is free from harsh chemicals, it is more likely to be suitable. If you are unsure, consulting with a dermatologist or hair care specialist can provide personalized advice.
