Using a bad shampoo can severely damage colored hair. Here are the signs to watch out for.

Signs of Using a Bad Shampoo on Colored Hair

• Fading Color: If your hair color starts to fade much quicker than expected, your shampoo may not be color-safe.
• Dryness and Dullness: Bad shampoos can strip moisture from your hair, causing it to look dry and lifeless.
• Frizz: Increased frizz and flyaways often indicate a lack of moisture and protein in your hair.
• Brittleness: Hair may become brittle and prone to breakage when using harsh shampoos.
• Irritated Scalp: You may experience itching or irritation on your scalp if the shampoo contains harsh chemicals.
• Uneven Texture: If your hair feels rough or has an uneven texture, the shampoo may be incompatible with dyed hair.
• Unpleasant Odor: A bad shampoo might leave your hair with a chemical or unpleasant smell even after rinsing.
