The process is pretty simple. First, decide if you want something semi-permanent that will fade out quicker, or if you want something more long-lasting. The particular product and shade you use also depends on your current hair color.

If you want to play around with cowboy copper tones over your existing color without committing to permanent color, then use a semi-permanent Color Reviving Gloss.

• If you are a brunette, we recommend our Cannella gloss –it’ll add copper tones to your darker base without looking too bright red.​

Maintaining Cowboy Copper Hair at Home

So, we explained how to get cowboy copper hair color at home, but what about maintenance? We recommend using a color-safe shampoo, conditioner, and hair mask. If you used one of our glosses to achieve the color, you might also need some regular color refreshing whenever you feel that the undertones you added (bronze or copper) have faded away.

Additionally, when going cowboy copper or any reddish shade for that matter, these tones tend to fade out of the hair more quickly than other shades. That's just the nature of the pigment. Make sure you use color-protecting shampoos, conditioners, and treatments and use thermal-protecting styling products. We also recommend washing your hair in cold water because this helps to seal the cuticle locking in your color whereas hot water swells the cuticle and causes color to drop out of the hair faster. If you can't stand the thought of a cold shower, at least use a moderate temperature when shampooing and do a quick shot of cold water when rinsing out your conditioner.
