  Permanent hair color lasts until the hair grows out or is recolored.

Depending on your hair growth, you will have to schedule occasional touch-up sessions with your colorist. Use professional hair color brands and post-color treatments to keep the shine of your permanent hair color intact.

• 9. How do I choose professional hair color for a natural look?
