To keep your hair color looking fresh as long as possible, the dye needs to settle in your hair. Washing your hair too soon after you color it can rinse some of the dye out so your hair color fades more quickly. For the best results, avoid washing your hair for at least 24 hours after you dye it. If you feel the need to clean your hair after dying it, just rinse it with cool water and scrub your scalp gently with your fingertips. Shampooing your hair every day can not only strip away its natural oils but the color as well. Keep your color fresh by washing every other day, every third day, or even just once a week if your scalp isn't naturally very oily. If your hair looks dirty, greasy, or limp between washes, use a dry shampoo designed specifically for color-treated hair to soak up excess oil at the roots and add volume. When you do wash your hair, it's important to use the right product. Opt for a shampoo designed specifically for color-treated hair to avoid stripping the color. The formula should be sulfate-free and contain silicones, which help preserve the color by sealing the cuticle. You may want to use a color-depositing shampoo for color treated hair. Not only does it work to prevent the dye from fading, it actually contains color that it leaves behind on the hair after you wash to freshen your color in between dye treatments. When you wash your hair, avoid applying the shampoo all over your locks. Instead, concentrate the product at your roots, where your hair is the oiliest, and build up a lather. Once you've created a lather at your roots, you can work some of the suds down the length of your hair just before you rinse it out to make sure that it's all clean. Hot water opens your cuticles and may allow color to wash out and cold water closes them. Conditioner, as the last step in the washing process, should be rinsed with cool water so that you can clean and condition your hair and then close the cuticle as fast as possible to minimize color loss. Don't rinse your shampoo out with cool water, because then you'll close the cuticle before you've gotten the chance to apply the conditioner, making conditioning your hair purposeless. While using cool water to rinse your hair can prolong your color, there may still be minerals in it that strip the dye from your hair. Consider adding a filter to your showerhead to remove minerals such as lime and iron so they don't ruin your color. A shower filter can also remove chlorine, heavy metals, and soap buildup that may fade your color. If you already have a filter attached to your sink, consider washing your hair in the sink instead.

Q: The company may be active on each site, but some companies tend to respond more on a particular site. Look at the messages posted by visitors and see if the company is responding to them. Then, identify which social media platform seems to be the most active. For instance, most companies have an active Twitter account, but you might find that the company you're complaining about is more active on Facebook. It's best to try complaining to the company directly before you post a complaint on social media. Depending on the company, you may get a better response if you complain privately. Frame your complaint as a warning to other customers. Then, briefly describe what happened and what you want. Keep this post as short as possible so that people will read it. Try to keep your complaint to 3-5 sentences when you're posting on social media. On Twitter, you'll need to keep it to 280 characters to meet their restrictions. You might write, "Be careful when ordering from this company because they send damaged goods. Every item in my order was damaged, but the company won't respond to my complaints. I want my items replaced or refunded." A company representative will likely respond to your post within 24 hours. Keep checking back until you see a response. Then, read the response carefully to find out what you need to do next to get results. If you don't see a response within 24 hours, the company may not monitor that account regularly. It's possible that the company doesn't respond on the platform you chose, or they might not have representatives that patrol that account. Visit one of their other pages and post your complaint there. Then, wait another 24 hours to see if they respond. Most companies don't want negative posts on their social media accounts, so they'll respond and try to make things better. However, this isn't always the case. If you aren't getting a response, it's possible social media won't help you. Most companies hate getting bad reviews because they drive away new customers. Find the company's Yelp or Amazon page, then describe what happened to you and what you want. However, keep in mind that it's possible the company won't see your post. Many companies will try to address negative reviews, so you may get their attention this way. However, it's best to save this option for last since it may not get you results.
A: Visit the company's social media sites to see which ones they use. Post a short paragraph explaining what happened and what you want. Monitor your post for a response from a representative. Post to a different platform if there's no response in 24 hours. Leave a review on Yelp or Amazon if you don't get a reply.

Article: When it comes to non-emergency medical transport, you can get it paid for by Medicare and other insurances, but it has to be ordered by a doctor and be medically necessary. If a person you are caring for needs this kind of transport, first talk to the doctor. If the person doesn't qualify for transport, you can still book transport for them if they can pay for it out of pocket. Most doctor's offices will have a preferred transport service that they will call if you don't have the preference. In fact, in some states, the doctor's office must book the transport for you to be covered under Medicaid or Medicare. However, you can also choose a transport company yourself if you are paying for the service out-of-pocket. Look for non-emergency medical transport in the phone book or online. If you're unsure which one to choose, ask for a recommendation at the doctor's office. Another way to help you narrow choices is to ask the transport company if they are authorized for Medicare or Medicaid. Companies that are contracted by the government for these services must meet certain standards. You can also ask about their safety record. If they're not willing to discuss it with you or send you information, they are likely not very safe. Cost is of course a factor when choosing a medical transport company. For instance, even if your transport is covered by Medicare, you'll likely need to pay the 20% co-pay. Therefore, it's a good idea to call several places to figure out which will be the cheapest for you overall. Some companies may require prepayment, particularly if you're not covered by insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid. Once you have a medical appointment scheduled for the person, generally the doctor's office will schedule the transport for the person if they need it and if they qualify for it. Be sure to let the office know that the person needs transportation to the appointment. Obviously, emergency transportation services are reserved for when it's an emergency. If the person needs immediate care, due to a fall or other serious injury or illness, then calling an ambulance is appropriate. Generally, this service is covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and most insurances.
