Introduction
Generally speaking, there is no fixed rule regarding "how long after dyeing hair should one get a treatment." Usually, it's better to have a hair treatment 3 to 7 days after coloring, but the exact timing should be determined based on individual circumstances. If you have good hair quality and the hair dye takes effect quickly, a treatment after 3 to 5 days may be sufficient. However, if your hair quality is poor, resulting in slower absorption and a longer time for the dye to set, waiting 5 to 7 days might be more suitable.
