FAQs
Is OSMO IKON Permanent Hair Colour suitable for all hair types?
Yes, it is designed for adult use on most hair types, but results can vary based on the original hair colour, texture, and porosity. A strand test is recommended.
What is the mixing ratio for OSMO IKON Permanent Hair Colour?
The standard mixing ratio is 1:1 with an OSMO developer. However, specific ratios may vary for certain techniques or extreme lift. Always refer to the product's instructions.
How long does the colour last?
As a permanent colour, it is designed for long-lasting results. Longevity depends on hair type, maintenance, and aftercare.
Does this product contain ammonia?
OSMO IKON features a low ammonia formulation, making it gentler than many traditional permanent hair colours.
Is OSMO IKON vegan?
Yes, OSMO IKON Permanent Hair Colour is vegan friendly and PETA-approved.
Can I use this colour to lighten my hair?
OSMO IKON is primarily a colouring system. While it can provide lift depending on the shade and developer used, it is most effective for depositing colour and achieving desired tones rather than significant lightening.
How do I choose the right shade?
Consult the OSMO colour chart and consider your natural hair colour, desired outcome, and professional advice. A strand test is crucial for verifying the final shade.
Troubleshooting
Colour not developing evenly
Ensure the correct mixing ratio with the developer was used. Re-application might be necessary, ensuring even saturation of hair.
Hair feels dry or damaged after colouring
Use a deep conditioning treatment. Check if the developer percentage was too high for the hair's condition. Ensure proper rinsing and conditioning post-colouring.
Colour fades quickly
Use colour-safe shampoos and conditioners. Avoid excessive washing with hot water. Ensure a proper strand test was conducted to verify colour uptake.
Scalp irritation during application
Immediately rinse the product from the hair and scalp. Ensure a patch test was performed prior to application, and consult a professional if irritation persists.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use OSMO IKON Permanent Hair Colour, it must be mixed with an appropriate OSMO developer (sold separately) according to the desired shade and lift. Always perform a strand test and a patch test 48 hours before full application to check for allergies and preview the colour result. Ensure hair is dry and unwashed before application. After colouring, rinse hair thoroughly until water runs clear, then shampoo with a colour-safe shampoo and condition with a treatment designed for coloured hair. Avoid heat styling immediately after colouring to allow the hair cuticle to settle. Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
