When you use some of these bright color hairsprays, but have to look office appropriate the next day, mix baking soda with shampoo or hot water to a paste. Apply this paste to the colored hair and let it set for a couple of minutes before rinsing it off. Since the baking soda will dry out your hair, apply a nourishing conditioner to your hair before drying.
