How To Refresh Your Hair Colour Before Spring?

As winter finally begins to fade and the days get longer, it's the perfect moment to breathe new life into your hair. The colder months, combined with central heating and winter accessories like hats and scarves, can leave your hair dry, lacklustre, and your colour a little worse for wear.
By the time spring arrives, that once-vibrant shade may look brassy, faded or just a bit flat. But the good news? You don’t need a full trip to the salon to give your colour a seasonal reset. With a few expert tips and some luxurious, at-home treatments from Christophe Robin, you can restore vibrancy, shine and nourishment — all from the comfort of your own bathroom.
Ready to welcome spring with fresh, glowing hair? Here’s how to do it.
Start with a Fresh, Clean Scalp
Before refreshing your colour, it’s essential to create the perfect foundation which starts with your scalp. Over time, products, pollution, and natural oils build up, making it harder for colour treatments to take hold.
The Cleansing Purifying Scrub with Sea Salt is a cult favourite for a reason. It deeply exfoliates without stripping, lifting away residue while calming the scalp with mineral-rich sea salt and natural plant oils.
A clean, balanced scalp encourages even colour application and ensures longer-lasting results, much like prepping your skin before makeup.
Top tip: Use weekly before any colour mask or treatment. Gently massage into the scalp, let it sit for a few minutes, and rinse with lukewarm water to help close the cuticle and lock in moisture.
How to RefreshYourColour at Home?
Once your scalp is detoxed and your hair is clean, it’s time for the fun part — reviving your colour! Christophe Robin’s Shade Variation Masks are the ultimate in at-home colour maintenance. They’re deeply nourishing treatments packed with pigments to enhance or adjust your shade, all while deeply conditioning the hair.

How to Use the Masks?

For an even deeper treatment, wrap your hair in a warm towel while the mask develops.
How to Protect Your Refreshed Colour
Once your colour looks vibrant again, the key is keeping it that way. Colour-treated hair tends to be more porous and prone to fading — especially in spring when UV rays, warmer weather, and outdoor exposure all increase.
Here’s a simple care routine to help your colour last longer:
1. Use a Gentle, Colour-Safe Shampoo
2. Condition Every Time You Wash
3. Add Weekly Deep Care
For a weekly boost or when your hair feels particularly dry, reach for the Colour Shield Cleansing Mask — a triple-action treatment that cleanses, nourishes, and protects colour in one step.
