If you dye your hair red or any variation thereof, you're definitely in need of an amazing product for color treated hair. Red fades the fastest, so you can be left having to touch up your hair every three weeks or so, and that's super damaging. Instead, try ShiKai's Henna Gold shampoo – and the accompanying conditioner. It does wonders for keeping those red shades vibrant!
2. Couture Color Pequi Oil Treatment

This product is amazing. It contains no alcohol and plenty of antioxidants, and it is fantastic if your hair is at all dry and damage. It kills frizz, gets rid of fly away pieces, and if you spend a lot of time coloring your hair, it leaves it with a healthy, vibrant shine.

4. Clairol Shine Happy
Price: $8.75 at soap.com
When you have color treated hair, it's important to keep it shiny. You don't have to spend a fortune to do that, either. Clairol actually has my favorite shine booster product, and as you can see, it doesn't cost a lot. This stuff works a bit like hair dye in its application, and it will leave your hair with a gorgeous sheen, no matter how many times you've colored it. This is hands-down one of my favorite products for color treated hair!
5. John Frieda Color Shampoos
/filters:quality(70)/content/s7/ao/gvzeq9im54c92c2456896411593056_250x235.jpg)
Price: $6.49 at drugstore.com
John Frieda has a lot of products meant especially for color treated hair, including glazes – which you should check out; I just didn't want to include too many of his products on the list! Besides, his shampoos – and complementary conditioners – tie in with the glazes. There are products for blonds, brunettes, and redheads (if you're lucky enough to find those), and they can all help keep your color from fading while making sure your hair stays healthy.
6. Neutrogena Triple Moisture Deep Recovery Hair Mask
/filters:quality(70)/content/ym/iq/qwbtdj6i54c92c25188e5232513145_250x191.jpg)
Price: $6.99 at drugstore.com
This is another fantastic product for color treated hair. Like the name implies, it goes deep to treat hair that's been damaged by a lot of coloring – not to mention a lot of blow drying, curling, straightening, and heat. Since it's a mask, it gets much deeper than other products, and the results are fantastic.
7. John Frieda Sheer Blond Go Blonder Lightening Spray
Price: $9.99 at drugstore.com
Blond can be a hard color to keep. It's not as hard as red, of course, but your roots still start to show pretty early, and the blond color can darken. That's why this is such an amazing product for color treated hair. It will help keep your blond locks sunny and bright, without too much chemical interference.
8. Kerastase Reflection
Price: $26.10 at drugstore.com
Finally, there are some Kerastase Reflection products. This is the shampoo and, as you can see, it's quite a bit pricier than the other products – but it's well worth the price. It makes your hair shiny, it's extremely gentle, and it reverses the damage that can be caused by a lot of coloring – plus it smells absolutely amazing.
There are some really amazing products for color treated hair out there, but you have to be careful when choosing among them. You have to consider your hair type, and what you've done to color it. For instance, dyeing it a darker color is much different from bleaching it. Which products for color treated hair do you use on your locks to keep them healthy?
