FAQs

How long does Majirel hair color last?

Majirel is a permanent hair color, meaning it is designed for long-lasting results. With proper care, the color can last until the hair grows out.

Can I use Majirel on previously colored hair?

Yes, Majirel can be used on previously colored hair. However, the final result will depend on the porosity and current color of your hair. A strand test is highly recommended.

What developer (oxidant) should I use with Majirel?

The choice of developer (e.g., 20, 30, or 40 volume) depends on the desired result. 20 volume is typically used for grey coverage and minimal lift, 30 volume for lifting and depositing color, and 40 volume for significant lift. Always consult professional guidelines or a colorist if unsure.

Does Majirel have an odor?

Majirel features odour trapping technology designed to minimize ammonia molecules, resulting in less odor compared to traditional permanent hair colors.

How much hair color do I need for one application?

A standard application usually requires one tube (50ml) of Majirel colour cream mixed with 75ml of developer. For very long or thick hair, you may need two tubes.

Is Majirel suitable for sensitive scalps?

While Majirel has a caring complex and odour-trapping technology, it is still a permanent hair color. Always perform a patch test 48 hours prior to application, especially if you have a history of scalp sensitivity.

What does 'vegan formula' mean for Majirel?

A vegan formula means that the product does not contain any animal-derived ingredients.

Troubleshooting

Color result is too dark or too light

Ensure accurate mixing ratio and precise application time. Strand tests are crucial for predicting results. Consider using a lower volume developer for darker results or a higher volume (if hair can tolerate it and lift is needed) for lighter results.

Uneven color application

Thoroughly section hair and ensure the color mixture is applied evenly from root to tip. Check that the hair is fully saturated. A smoother mixing consistency helps prevent this.

Hair feels dry or damaged after coloring

Rinse hair thoroughly after development. Use a post-color treatment or a deep conditioning mask. Ensure the correct developer volume was used and that hair wasn't over-processed. The caring complex in Majirel helps minimize dryness.

Color fades quickly

Use color-safe shampoos and conditioners. Avoid frequent hot water washing. Protect hair from environmental factors like sun exposure. Ensure the processing time was adequate for color to penetrate.

Allergic reaction or scalp irritation

Immediately rinse hair with plenty of water and discontinue use. Always perform the mandatory 48-hour patch test before each application, even if you have used the product before.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Perform a patch test 48 hours before use to check for allergies.
  2. Perform a strand test to determine the exact color result and processing time on your hair.
  3. Mix Majirel colour cream with an appropriate L'Oréal Professionnel oxidant (developer) in a non-metallic bowl. The mixing ratio is typically 1:1.5 (e.g., 50ml of colour cream to 75ml of oxidant), but always follow the specific instructions for the chosen developer.
  4. Apply the mixture evenly to dry, unwashed hair using an applicator brush, starting with the roots.

Compatibility:

  • Majirel is compatible with L'Oréal Professionnel's range of oxidative developers (e.g., L'Oréal Professionnel Cream Oxydant 20, 30, or 40 volume) depending on the desired lift and coverage.
  • It is suitable for all hair types, including natural, colored, and previously chemically treated hair, though results may vary.

Care:

  • Use shampoos and conditioners specifically designed for colored hair to prolong color vibrancy.
  • Avoid washing hair immediately after coloring; wait at least 48 hours.
  • Protect hair from prolonged exposure to sun and heat, which can cause fading.
