FAQs

Can I use this on hair that has been previously dyed?

High-lift dyes are generally formulated for virgin hair. Applying to pre-colored hair may result in uneven, unpredictable outcomes.

What developer volume should I use?

Refer to the specific instructions provided on the packaging, as the lift requirement determines the appropriate volume of developer.

Is this product suitable for all hair types?

It is suitable for most healthy hair types, but it is not recommended for hair that is already damaged, brittle, or chemically over-processed.

How long should I leave the color on?

Processing time varies based on your hair's natural level and texture; always perform a strand test first to find your optimal timing.

How do I maintain the color for longer?

Use color-safe, sulfate-free shampoos, avoid excessive heat styling, and utilize professional-grade hair masks weekly.

Troubleshooting

Color appears uneven or patchy

Ensure hair is sectioned into smaller parts during application and that sufficient product is applied to saturate every strand.

Hair feels dry after coloring

Incorporate a deep conditioning treatment immediately following the color service and use sulfate-free hair care products thereafter.

Color result is not as light as expected

Check your base level; high-lift dyes work best on virgin hair, and previous artificial color will inhibit the lifting process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure you have a non-metallic mixing bowl and brush, as metallic tools can react with the chemicals. Perform a strand test to determine the exact processing time for your specific hair porosity. Protect the hairline with a barrier cream to prevent staining. After rinsing, use a post-color pH-balancing shampoo and a deep conditioning mask to close the cuticle and restore moisture. Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain formula integrity.
