FAQs
How long does the color last?
Garnier Color Sensation Retouch is a permanent hair dye, meaning the color is long-lasting and designed not to wash out easily, providing weeks of vibrant color.
Can I use this to cover grey hair?
Yes, this product is specifically formulated to provide perfect coverage of grey hair, ensuring a uniform and natural-looking color.
How often should I use Garnier Color Sensation Retouch?
The frequency depends on your hair growth and color maintenance needs. For root coverage, you can use it as needed when roots become visible. For full color, use as per your preference when the color starts to fade.
Do I need to perform a patch test?
Yes, a patch test is crucial. Apply a small amount of the product to a discreet area of skin 48 hours before full application to check for any allergic reactions or sensitivities.
Can I use this on hair that has been previously bleached?
While it can be used on previously colored hair, results on bleached hair can be unpredictable. It is recommended to perform a strand test first or consult with a professional stylist.
What if I want to change my hair color to a lighter shade after using this?
This is a permanent brown hair dye. To lighten your hair after use, you would typically need to use a bleach or a lighter dye, which can be damaging. It's often best to wait or consult a professional.
How do I store the product if I don't use it all?
Permanent hair color mixtures should not be stored. It is recommended to mix only the amount needed for application and discard any leftover mixture immediately after use.
Troubleshooting
Color result is different from expected
Ensure you followed the application time precisely and performed a strand test beforehand. Results can vary based on your natural hair color and condition.
Uneven color application
Thoroughly saturate dry hair section by section, ensuring even distribution. Using a brush can help achieve a more uniform application compared to just squeezing from the bottle.
Scalp irritation during or after application
Rinse immediately with plenty of water. Ensure you performed the allergy patch test 48 hours prior. If irritation persists, consult a doctor.
Color washes out too quickly
Ensure hair was not washed for at least 24-48 hours post-application and use only color-safe, sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners.
