Article: Because any technique that strips color from your hair is drying, you’ll likely notice dryness, brittleness, or split ends in your hair afterwards. Deep-conditioning will give your hair an instant infusion of nutrients and restore some of the moisture stripped by the treatments.  You can either buy a conditioning product or make your own with castor oil. Focus the deep conditioner on the ends of your hair, which will likely be the most brittle. Your hair will still need extra care and moisture in the weeks following color removal. Once a week, apply a moisturizing hair mask to your whole head and leave it on for the directed amount of time, then gently rinse it out with warm water. You can either purchase hair masks or make your own with ingredients like yogurt, honey, and olive oil. To keep from damaging your hair further, try not to use hot tools like curling irons, straighteners, and blow dryers. Wait until you’ve been using moisturizing treatments for a few weeks and your hair feels strong and healthy enough to handle heat. Since your hair will be dry and brittle after these color-removing treatments, you’ll need to give it a break from shampoo as well. Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo to clean your hair once every 2-3 days. In between, your hair will have time to regain its natural sebum, which makes it healthy and shiny. If your hair feels extremely brittle, just give it a quick rinse and apply conditioner to the ends. Since Kool-Aid isn’t a permanent, chemical-heavy hair dye, you won’t need to wait too long before dyeing your hair again. Waiting 4 weeks should give your hair time to strengthen and replenish its moisture, but you may need to wait an extra 1-2 weeks if your hair still feels dry.

What is a summary?
Use a deep conditioning treatment after using any color-fading methods. Use a moisturizing mask once a week to keep your hair hydrated. Avoid hot styling tools until your hair is healthy again. Shampoo every 2-3 days to let your hair restore its natural oils. Wait 4 weeks before dyeing your hair again.
