​
Q: Why are professional hair care products important?
A: Quality products are key, because your hair is an investment. You need to be using good products to protect and maintain the color you got, and to keep your hair in good health so you can continue to color it in the future. It ends up costing more when poor quality products are used, that strip color and damage hair.
