Color-treated hair can be a challenge to manage. The color itself can damage your hair and cause breakage, but the solution can be worse. You can try to cover up the color with dye, or you can try to manage it with products that are designed for color-treated hair. One option is clarifying shampoo. Here are some of the best-clarifying shampoos on the market.
