FAQs
Is Wella Color Touch 9/97 ammonia-free?
Yes, Wella Color Touch 9/97 is an ammonia-free demi-permanent hair color, designed for a gentler coloring experience.
How long does the color last?
As a demi-permanent color, Wella Color Touch typically lasts for 20-24 washes, gradually fading over time.
Do I need to mix this color with anything?
Yes, Wella Color Touch 9/97 must be mixed with Wella Color Touch Emulsion in a 1:2 ratio. Do not use other developers.
Can this color lighten my hair?
Wella Color Touch is a deposit-only color and cannot lighten natural hair. It is designed for toning, enhancing, or darkening existing hair color and for grey coverage.
How often can I use Wella Color Touch?
You can use Wella Color Touch as often as needed to refresh your color, typically every 4-6 weeks, depending on hair growth and color fading.
What is the difference between demi-permanent and permanent hair color?
Demi-permanent color deposits color onto the hair shaft and fades gradually, while permanent color penetrates the hair shaft to change its structure and color, requiring root touch-ups as hair grows.
Can I use this on previously bleached or highlighted hair?
Yes, Wella Color Touch is suitable for highlighted or bleached hair to refresh tone or add depth. Always perform a strand test to predict the result on porous hair.
Troubleshooting
Color appears too dark or too light
Ensure accurate mixing ratios with the correct Color Touch Emulsion. Check the starting hair color's porosity and natural depth; lighter bases will yield lighter results, and porous hair may absorb color more intensely.
Uneven color application
Ensure hair is thoroughly saturated with the color mixture. Work in small, manageable sections and apply the color evenly from roots to ends. Perform a strand test if unsure about application.
Color does not cover grey effectively
While Color Touch offers grey blending, for complete grey coverage, a permanent color may be necessary. Ensure the product was left on for the recommended processing time. For very resistant grey, consider pre-treating or using a specific grey coverage formula.
Scalp irritation during application
Although ammonia-free, some individuals may be sensitive. Ensure the product is not in prolonged contact with the scalp beyond the recommended time. Rinse immediately if severe irritation occurs.
