FAQs
How long does the color last?
This is a permanent hair dye, meaning the color is designed to last until the hair grows out or is chemically altered. Regular use of the Refresh Colour Gloss can help maintain vibrancy.
Can I use this on previously dyed hair?
While possible, results can be unpredictable. The 'Colour + Lighten' feature may interact with existing color. It is highly recommended to perform a strand test on a small, hidden section first to see how the color will take.
What is the purpose of the Refresh Colour Gloss?
The Extra Colour Refresh Gloss is included to boost and refresh your hair color's vibrancy approximately 3-4 weeks after the initial coloring, helping to maintain the look between full applications.
How much hair dye is in the package?
The package contains 60ml of Colour Cream, 60ml of Developer Lotion, 22.5ml of Conditioner, and 22.5ml of Refresh Colour Gloss.
Is this product suitable for men?
The product is listed for adult use. While the color itself is unisex, the packaging and description are geared towards female consumers.
What does 'Vegan Formula' mean?
A vegan formula means that the product is free from any animal-derived ingredients. Schwarzkopf LIVE products with this designation are committed to this standard.
How often should I use the Refresh Colour Gloss?
The Refresh Colour Gloss is recommended for use approximately 3-4 weeks after the initial hair coloring to maintain color vibrancy.
Troubleshooting
Hair color is too dark or not light enough
Perform a strand test before full application to gauge results. Results vary based on original hair color and porosity. If unsatisfied, consult a professional stylist or wait several weeks before re-coloring.
Allergic reaction or scalp irritation
Immediately rinse hair with lukewarm water. Do not use the product again. Seek medical advice if irritation persists. Always perform the 48-hour allergy test before use.
Product spills or stains skin/surfaces
Wipe away excess product immediately with a damp cloth. For skin, use a gentle soap and water. Protect clothing and surfaces before application.
Hair feels dry or damaged after coloring
Ensure the HaptIQ Anti-Damage system was utilized correctly. Use deep conditioning treatments regularly. Consider using the Refresh Colour Gloss as directed for added moisture and vibrancy.
