Watercolors INTENSE 3-in-1 Color Depositing Shampoo — Red, 8 fl oz, cleanses + conditions for vibrant semi-permanent color

Designed for at-home use and salon-quality results, this 8 fl oz color-depositing shampoo layers direct dye pigments into hair as it cleanses and conditions. The formula works at a slightly acidic pH to help the dye bind to hair fibers while leaving strands soft and shiny. It’s free of sulfates, parabens, peroxide, salt, PPD and PTD, and cruelty-free, making it a convenient option for anyone who wants to boost red tones between color appointments.

How quickly will I see red color after using this shampoo?

Color shows up immediately on pre-lightened or naturally light hair and becomes more noticeable with longer processing. Expect a subtle refresh with short contact times and stronger pigment with extended application.

• 2–5 minutes: light tint and enhanced tone
• 10–15 minutes: vivid, more saturated red
• Immediate rinse: very subtle, sheer glow
• Repeat washes: intensity builds and maintains between salon visits

Will this shampoo work on curly, dry or normal hair without drying it out?

The product is formulated to cleanse and condition simultaneously, so it refreshes color while helping preserve moisture and manageability. Cationic conditioning ingredients deliver pigment and slip, reducing tangles and frizz after rinsing.

• 3-in-1 action: cleanses, deposits color, conditions
• Cationic conditioners: improve combability and shine
• Suitable for dry, normal and curly textures when used as directed
• Use weekly or as-needed to maintain hydration and color

How long will the semi-permanent red last and how should I maintain it?

Duration depends on hair porosity, starting base color and washing habits; expect gradual fade over several washes. To prolong color, wash with cool water, use sulfate-free products and limit daily shampooing.

• Lasts several washes; deeper on lightened hair
• Cool water and gentle cleansing preserve pigments
• Use once a week or between dye appointments for upkeep
• Leave on longer for stronger deposits when needed

Is this safe for color-treated hair and free from harsh additives?

The formula is designed for color-treated hair and avoids harsh ingredients commonly linked to stripping or irritation. It contains no sulfates, parabens, peroxide, salt, PPD or PTD and is produced in the USA without animal testing.

• Formulated for color-treated hair maintenance
• No sulfates or peroxide to avoid stripping effects
• PPD/PTD free for those avoiding these compounds
• Cruelty-free and made in the USA

Who is this product for?
