FAQs
Is Goldwell Colorance 5VA a permanent hair color?
No, Goldwell Colorance 5VA is a demi-permanent hair color. It deposits color onto the hair shaft without significantly altering the hair's natural pigment and will gradually fade over time.
Do I need a developer with this hair color?
Yes, demi-permanent colors like Goldwell Colorance require mixing with a specific developer, such as Goldwell Colorance Developer Lotion, to activate the color.
How long does the color typically last?
The longevity of demi-permanent color varies depending on hair type, porosity, and aftercare, but it generally lasts between 15-25 washes.
Can I use this on previously colored hair?
Yes, it can be used on previously colored hair to refresh the tone or add a new shade. However, results will depend on the current color and condition of the hair.
What is the difference between this and permanent hair color?
Permanent hair color permanently alters the hair's natural pigment and requires regular root touch-ups as hair grows. Demi-permanent color fades gradually and does not require root touch-ups in the same way.
How should I perform a patch test?
Apply a small amount of the mixed hair color to a discreet skin area (like behind the ear or inner elbow) and leave for 48 hours. If any irritation or redness occurs, do not use the product.
What is the "Fascinating Violet Ash" shade like?
This shade is a sophisticated blend of violet and ash tones, designed to provide a cool, muted violet result with depth.
Troubleshooting
Color is not vibrant enough
Ensure hair was lightened to the appropriate level before application. Verify the correct mixing ratio with the developer and that the processing time was sufficient. Results can vary based on starting hair porosity and color.
Uneven color application
Ensure hair was properly sectioned and the color mixture was applied evenly throughout. Check for any missed spots and reapply if necessary, following processing guidelines. Use a brush for precise application.
Color fades too quickly
Use color-safe hair products and avoid frequent washing with hot water. Minimize exposure to chlorine and excessive sun. Consider using a color-depositing conditioner to refresh the shade.
Hair feels dry after application
Rinse thoroughly and follow up with a moisturizing conditioner or hair mask. Ensure you are using a suitable developer and processing the color for the recommended time only.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:

- Mixing: In the non-metallic bowl, mix the Colorance hair color with the recommended Goldwell Colorance Developer Lotion according to the instructions on the developer bottle. A common ratio is 1:2 (e.g., 30ml color to 60ml developer), but always refer to the specific product instructions.
- Application: Apply the mixed color evenly to dry or towel-dried hair using the applicator brush. Work in sections for complete coverage.
- Processing: Leave the color on for the time specified in the product instructions (typically around 20-30 minutes, but check packaging).
- Rinsing: Rinse hair thoroughly with lukewarm water until the water runs clear. Shampoo and condition as usual, preferably with color-safe products.
Compatibility:
- This product is suitable for all hair types.
- It is designed to be mixed with Goldwell Colorance Developer Lotion only. Using other developers may yield unpredictable results.
- Results are most vibrant on pre-lightened or lighter natural hair colors.
Care:
- Use color-safe shampoos and conditioners to prolong color life.
- Avoid washing hair with very hot water, as this can strip color.
- Minimize heat styling, or use heat protectant sprays.
- Consider using color-depositing conditioners in a similar shade to maintain vibrancy between applications.
