Mane N Tail Color Protect Shampoo for Colour Vibrancy & Shine for Colour-Treated Hair 12 oz
Colour-treated hair has two problems with shampoo. Anything strong enough to properly clean tends to pull pigment out, and anything gentle enough to keep the colour often leaves the scalp feeling unwashed. This one is pH-balanced to sit between those. The 12 oz Color Protect version of Mane 'n Tail keeps the brand's protein and vitamin base and adds colour retention to the job list. It cleans without stripping the moisture that dyed hair loses easily, and the proteins go to work on strands that bleach or permanent colour have left fragile. The shine that comes with it is a cuticle effect rather than a coating, so it does not build up over washes.
Use it as your everyday shampoo from the day after a salon appointment onwards. It suits any colour, though it earns its keep most on reds and coppers, which fade fastest. Follow with a conditioner on the lengths, since chemically treated hair almost always needs the second step.

Application tips
One wash is usually enough on colour. A second pass takes more pigment with it, so save the double shampoo for weeks when there is real build-up.
Concentrate on the scalp and let the suds run down the lengths on their own. Massage with fingertips, not nails. Rinse until the water runs properly clear, then follow with a conditioner rather than going straight to a towel.
Results
It cleans without that stripped, creaking feeling that tells you the colour has gone down the drain along with the dirt.
Hair looks brighter wet and holds its tone longer between salon visits or home top-ups. Chemically processed lengths feel less strawy afterwards, which makes the conditioning step easier. The scent is clean and mild rather than heavily perfumed.
