Permanent hair dye won't fade completely but will lose vibrancy over time. Unlike semi-permanent dyes, permanent dyes penetrate deeper into the hair shaft. To maintain color, use color-protecting shampoos and conditioners, avoid excessive heat styling, and limit sun exposure, as these factors expedite fading. Regular touch-ups might also be necessary to keep your hair looking fresh.
