FAQs

How does this product ensure 100% grey coverage?

This dye uses a specially formulated permanent color system designed to penetrate and blend grey hair effectively, ensuring full coverage and a natural-looking result that lasts.

Is an oil-infused formula better for my hair?

Yes, the oil-infused crème formula helps to condition and protect your hair during the coloring process. This can lead to a softer feel and a healthier-looking shine after coloring, reducing potential dryness.

How long does the permanent color last?

As a permanent hair dye, the color will not wash out. It will gradually grow out with your hair. Most users find they need to re-color their roots every 4-6 weeks, depending on their hair growth rate.

Can I use this product if I have sensitive skin?

If you have sensitive skin, it is absolutely essential to perform the recommended 48-hour patch test before each application. If any irritation occurs, do not use the product. Always prioritize your safety.

What should I do if I don't like the color result?

If the color isn't what you expected, refrain from immediately re-coloring. Consult a professional hairdresser for advice on color correction. A strand test prior to full application can help prevent unexpected results.

Do I need to wash my hair before applying the dye?

It is generally recommended to apply permanent hair dye to dry, unwashed hair. This allows natural oils to provide a slight protective barrier for your scalp and helps the color adhere better. Avoid using any styling products before application.

Troubleshooting

Color is uneven or patchy

Ensure hair is thoroughly saturated with dye during application. Sectioning hair before applying and using a comb to distribute the product can help. Next time, consider a strand test to determine correct processing time.

Color did not cover all grey hairs

Make sure to apply the dye generously to areas with a high concentration of grey. Sometimes, stubborn greys require slightly longer processing time (check leaflet for specifics). Ensure hair is dry and clean before application.

Allergic reaction (itching, redness, swelling) after application

Immediately rinse hair and scalp thoroughly with cool water and discontinue use. Seek medical advice. This emphasizes the critical importance of performing the 48-hour patch test before *every* application.

Skin staining around the hairline or ears

Before application, apply a barrier cream (like petroleum jelly) to your hairline and ears. If staining occurs, wipe immediately with a damp cloth or a mild facial toner. Prevention is key.

Hair feels dry or brittle after coloring

Use the conditioner provided in the box, and follow up with a deep conditioning treatment in your next few washes. Ensure you didn't leave the dye on longer than recommended. Regularly use moisturizing, color-safe hair care products.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup & Preparation

  1. Read Instructions: Always read the enclosed instruction leaflet thoroughly before starting.
  2. Patch Test: 48 hours before application, perform a patch test. Apply a small amount of the mixed dye to a clean patch of skin, like behind your ear. Do not wash, cover, or disturb for 48 hours. If you experience any irritation, redness, swelling, or burning, do not use the product.
  3. Strand Test: If you are unsure of the color result or have previously colored hair, perform a strand test on a small, hidden section of hair to predict the final shade and development time.
  4. Gather Supplies: Wear old clothes or drape a towel over your shoulders. Have a timer, gloves (provided), and a barrier cream (like petroleum jelly) for your hairline and ears ready.
  5. Mix Dye: Follow the instructions to mix the colorant and developer. Shake well.

Application

  • Initial Application: Apply the mixture to dry, unwashed hair, starting at the roots and working your way to the ends. Ensure even saturation for consistent color.
  • Processing Time: Leave the dye on for the recommended time as per the instruction leaflet, typically around 25-30 minutes, or longer for stubborn greys (check instructions).
  • Rinse: Rinse hair thoroughly with warm water until the water runs clear. Follow with the conditioner provided.

Compatibility

  • This product is formulated for adult use.
  • It is suitable for most hair types but should not be used on hair that has been previously colored with henna or metallic dyes.
  • Avoid use on broken or irritated scalps, or if you have a rash on your face.

Care & Maintenance

  • Conditioning: Use the provided CC ColorSeal Conditioner immediately after coloring to lock in color and add shine. Continue to use color-safe shampoos and conditioners for subsequent washes.
  • Sun Protection: Protect your hair from excessive sun exposure, which can cause color fading.
  • Heat Styling: Minimize heat styling, or use a heat protectant, as high temperatures can affect color longevity.
