10 of the best shampoo for coloured hair to enhance dyed locks

The Pureology Hydrate Moisturising Shampoo for Colour Treated Hair is the most highly-rated shampoo that we could find. With an impressive amount of reviews, this shampoo earns a place for its hydrating sulphate-free formula that's been enriched with all the good stuff - like rose, green tea and multi-weight protein extracts to nourish and protect. Customers say that it might be a more premium price point but is totally worth it, delivering high shine and softness on coloured hair.

As the best toning shampoo for blonde colour-treated hair, the Bold Uniq Purple Shampoo just had to have a spot on our list. Over 50,000 reviews later, we're definitely trusting this shampoo to knock out any brassy tones from blonde hair with its purple pigment. Reviewers say it's become a staple in their haircare routine. Extend time between expensive salon visits and preserve colour with this toner that turns warm, yellow-toned hair to cooler, ash tones. Yes, please.

At fab value, the Bed Head by TIGI Colour Goddess Shampoo has been formulated with dyed hair in mind. Containing vitamin E, keratin, sweet almond oil and coconut oil extracts to keep the hair conditioned, it has a gorgeous sweet toffee scent and leaves the hair soft and shiny with volume. A fan of the product said they were blown away by the value as well as how much shine this budget shampoo delivers.

Senior Commercial Content Writer, Samantha Price: "One thing I remember about using this Bed Head shampoo is the unreal toffee scent that makes your hair smell incredible for ages. It's almost good enough to eat. The note I came away with was that my unruly, frizzy hair was left super smooth with this thick, moisturising formula. It may not be all that effective on thinner hair types, but my thick head of hair absolutely drank this up."

The formula of the L'Oréal Professionnel Serie Expert Vitamino Colour Shampoo is enriched with resveratrol, a potent antioxidant inspired by skincare to nourish the hair. Working to boost the radiance of colour-treated hair, it protects colour for up to eight weeks. Fans of the product say it leaves their coloured hair shiny and protected. Talk about getting the most out of your dye job.

Senior Commercial Content Writer, Samantha Price: "I won't lie, I noticed a big difference when I ran out of this shampoo and switched to other brands. This shampoo really does maintain the colour and gently cleanses rather than stripping the dye from your hair. The formula is a creamy consistency that feels really moisturising on your hair and it feels cleansing without being too harsh. I'd definitely recommend it."

For the best budget option, the OGX Fade-Defying Orchid Oil Shampoo is pretty bloomin' good. A sulphate-free formula and UV filters help to slow premature hair fading. While orchid oil and grape seed oil extracts work to add moisture to the hair. One reviewer noted that this range from OGX really seems to be helping their colour last. Affordable and effective - what's not to love?

With salons everywhere recommending Wella, it comes as no surprise that the Wella Professional Invigo Colour Protection Shampoo is such a highly-rated pick. It's enriched with ingredients like vitamin E and histidine to control the oxidation process after colouring, protecting colour for longer. Customers say that since switching to this shampoo their colour has seemed to last longer. Get salon-worthy hair at a reasonable price and cut back on your appointments at the same time.

As loved by Love Island's Molly Marsh, the Colour Security Shampoo from Color Wow is currently a trending choice. With its amino-fortified complex, it works to prevent breakage and dullness, all while defending against fading colour. Free from sulphates, the gentle cleansing formula gets rid of any build-up on the scalp without stripping dye.

Senior Commercial Content Writer, Samantha Price: "This is my current go-to shampoo for keeping my coloured hair protected. After finding out I'm a huge fan of Color Wow, I decided to put this to the test, too. Freshly dyed hair tends to lift quicker in the first week of being done due to unsealed cuticles. And, I noticed a lot less of the dye running down the shower drain after using this. Now, I don't want to wash my hair without it. It leaves the hair feeling glassy and silky."

According to reviews, the REDKEN Shampoo For Coloured Hair is a long-lasting solution that protects the pigment in your hair. A little goes a long way with this mighty bottle, and its pH-balanced formula strengthens hair from the scalp to the tip. Gentle and conditioning, it works to boost vibrancy and breathe new life into dull, tired hair.

Senior Commercial Content Writer, Samantha Price: "I recently tried REDKEN's Shampoo For Coloured Hair, and while I can't say for certain as I haven't been using it long enough, I did notice that I had a lot less colour fallout as I was washing my hair. After washing, I did notice that my colour seemed a lot more vibrant, too. But I may have to give this one a go for a repeated amount of time to see a considerable difference."

Enhancing shades of red hair, the John Frieda Radiant Red Boosting Shampoo is great for keeping up with the maintenance that comes with the shade. Don't worry, we know it all too well. With a combination of pomegranate and vitamin D extracts, it extends the life of red hair by infusing red tones with every wash. Fans of the product say it's perfect for keeping their colour vibrant.

Senior Commercial Content Writer, Samantha Price: "When my hair was a deeper shade of red, I used to use this shampoo to keep my colour. I will say that the effects are subtle, the shampoo isn't a total hair transformation - but it does make your hair look more vibrant, shiny and maintains the colour. Plus, it's super cheap, currently the cheapest on our list."

If you have brunette tresses and looking to enhance the colour, the John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Colour Vibrancy Shampoo might just be the one for you. This moisturising shampoo rehydrates and replenishes dry, brunette hair. It helps maintain hair colour for any shade of brunette, wash after wash. Reviewers say only a small amount is needed and it leaves the hair looking oh-so glossy.
