Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this product suitable for all hair types?

While effective on most hair types, the 12% concentration is very strong and requires a professional assessment of the hair's integrity before application.

Can I use this with any brand of hair color?

It is formulated for professional use, but it is best to check the manufacturer's recommendations for the specific hair color or lightener being used.

What is the shelf life of this oxidant?

When kept in a cool, dark place and tightly sealed, the product maintains its effectiveness until the expiration date indicated on the packaging.

Do I need to wear gloves when using this?

Yes, always use professional protective gloves to prevent skin irritation.

Can this be used for grey hair coverage?

40 volume is typically used for lifting; for grey coverage, lower volumes are often more appropriate depending on the desired color result.

Troubleshooting

Mixture is too thick or dry during application

Ensure you are using the correct mixing ratio and stirring thoroughly; if using a specific lightener powder, ensure it is compatible with high-volume developers.

Hair lift is not as light as expected

Verify that the processing time was sufficient and that the product was not exposed to heat sources that might have caused premature drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To prepare, mix the Cream Activator in a non-metallic bowl according to the ratios specified by your specific color or bleach manufacturer. Use a professional tint brush to ensure even saturation. Store the bottle in a cool, dark, and dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to preserve the integrity of the peroxide. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after every use to prevent the developer from losing its potency over time. Always wear protective gloves during application and follow all safety protocols associated with 40 volume developers.
