FAQs
How long does the La Riche Directions Peach color last?
The color typically lasts for 4-6 weeks, depending on hair porosity, washing frequency, and aftercare. It fades gradually.
Do I need to use a developer with this hair color?
No, La Riche Directions is a semi-permanent cream dye that is ready to use straight from the tub. It does not require a peroxide or developer.
Can I use this on dark hair?
For the best and most vibrant peach results, it is recommended to use this color on bleached or pre-lightened hair (pale blonde). On darker hair, the color will appear much more subtle or may not show up significantly.
Is this product suitable for sensitive scalps?
While the formula is conditioning and free from harsh chemicals like ammonia and peroxide, a patch test 48 hours prior to full application is always recommended to check for any individual sensitivities.
Can I mix La Riche Directions Peach with other colors?
Yes, you can mix La Riche Directions Peach with other colors from the Directions range or with a white conditioner to create custom shades, such as pastel peach or a blended tone.
How much hair does one 100ml tub cover?
A 100ml tub is generally sufficient for a full head of shoulder-length hair or for multiple applications of highlights or smaller sections, depending on hair thickness and density.
Will this damage my hair?
No, La Riche Directions is a conditioning semi-permanent hair color that does not contain ammonia or peroxide, so it does not typically damage the hair. In fact, it can leave hair feeling softer and looking shinier.
Troubleshooting
Color did not take or is very faint.
Ensure hair was sufficiently lightened (bleached to pale blonde). Re-apply the color, ensuring even saturation, and consider a longer processing time (within safe limits) or a stronger developer if attempting a more permanent color.
Uneven color application.
This can happen if the hair was not properly sectioned or if the dye was not applied evenly. For the next application, ensure thorough saturation from roots to tips and use a brush for precise application.
Color faded very quickly.
Use cool water for washing, sulfate-free shampoos, and minimize heat styling. Reapplication might be needed more frequently depending on hair porosity and washing habits.
Skin irritation after patch test.
Do not use the product. Contact La Riche customer support for alternative recommendations.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Preparation:
Perform a Strand Test: Apply a small amount of color to a hidden section of hair to check the final shade and ensure no adverse reactions.
Patch Test: Apply a small amount of the dye behind your ear or on the inner elbow 48 hours before full application to check for skin sensitivity.
Ensure Hair is Prepared: For best results, hair should be clean, dry, and ideally pre-lightened or bleached to a light blonde (level 9 or higher). Avoid using conditioner before application.
Protect Your Workspace: Wear old clothing and use gloves. Protect surfaces and skin around the hairline with petroleum jelly.
Application:
Section your hair.
Using gloves, apply the cream dye evenly to the desired sections of hair.
Ensure saturated application for best color uptake.
Leave the color on for 20-30 minutes (or longer for more intense results, but check strand test). Use a plastic cap to keep hair covered.
Rinse hair thoroughly with cool water until the water runs clear. Avoid using shampoo immediately after rinsing.
Compatibility:
This product is a semi-permanent hair color and is not intended for use on dark, unbleached hair if a true peach tone is desired.
It can be mixed with other La Riche Directions colors or conditioners to create custom shades.
Safe for use on bleached hair, highlighted hair, or virgin hair if a subtle tint is acceptable.
Care:
Wash hair with cool water and a sulfate-free, color-safe shampoo to prolong color life.
Avoid frequent washing.
Minimize the use of heat styling tools, as high heat can cause color to fade faster.
Condition hair regularly to maintain softness and shine.
