Dear All,
My hair have become very dull and lifeless after I have started colouring. When washing it feels very stiff as if i have used the gel.
I condition properly also I frequently use warm olive oil to massage...where am I going wrong...is it due to colour or I need proper shampoo?
need help...

This is a tough one to clarify without seeing the hair but i will give it a shot. Color will affect the condition of the hair and it will vary depending on the type of color and how it is applied ( numerous overlapping applications etc.).
Using a good moisture based shampoo and conditioner is a good step but not usually enough. Many conditioners just provide the primary use which is closing the cuticle so you are not getting much out of it. You need to nourish your hair with more moisture while keeping the hair strong with protien base. So using a Deep Conditioning treatment on a weekly basis will help plus you may want to consider using a daily hair reconstructor to help maintain the hairs strength.
Consult your stylist about it as they know (or at least should) what they have been putting on your hair and can suggest something that can help.

Any hair that has undergone dyeing is vulnerable to damage: the degree depends on the amount of colour change. For instance, going from dark to light is the most damaging because the bleaching agent is stronger and left on for longer. Also the frequency with which the hair is dyed is a major factor in the amount of damage sustained. Any chemical service reduces the elasticity and increases the prospect of hair breakage.
Apart from doing an after colouring conditioning, use a protein mask and deep conditioning treatment regularly before and after colouring.
It is also similarly important to condition the hair after each shampoo to eliminate tangles and smooth the hair cuticles. The heavier, more moisturizing types should be used, irrespective of the possibility of causing fine hair go limp; Any limpness can be counteracted by using styling products.
