FAQs
What is the difference between demi-permanent and permanent hair color?
Demi-permanent color deposits color onto the hair shaft without significantly altering the hair's structure and fades gradually over time (up to 25 washes). Permanent color penetrates the hair shaft to change its natural color and provides longer-lasting results.
How long does the color last?
Schwarzkopf Igora Vibrance typically lasts up to 25 washes, depending on hair porosity and aftercare.
Can I use Igora Vibrance on grey hair?
Yes, Igora Vibrance can provide tone-on-tone coverage for up to 70% grey hair. For higher percentages of grey, other coloring systems might be more effective.
What developer should I use with Igora Vibrance?
For demi-permanent results, use Igora Vibrance Developers 6 Volume (1.9%) or 13 Volume (4%). Always follow the specific mixing ratio instructions.
How do I mix the color and developer?
Mix equal parts of the Igora Vibrance color and the appropriate Igora Vibrance Developer (1:1 ratio) in a non-metallic bowl until a smooth consistency is formed.
Can I achieve different consistencies with the formula?
Yes, the liquid formula can be mixed to a gel consistency with a higher ratio of color to developer, or a cream consistency with the standard 1:1 ratio, allowing for versatile application techniques.
What is the Moisture Protecting Complex?
It's a patented combination of sugar molecules and vitamins (Aquaxyl) that stabilizes the hair's inner moisture level, controls water circulation, and secures the inner structure of each hair fiber during the coloring process.
Troubleshooting
Color is uneven or patchy
Ensure hair was properly sectioned and color was applied evenly. Re-application might be needed, ensuring saturation of all strands. Check for any barriers from previous treatments.
Color does not develop as expected
Verify the correct developer volume and mixing ratio were used. Ensure the product was not expired and was stored correctly. Strand test again to confirm.
Hair feels dry or damaged after application
Rinse thoroughly and apply a deep conditioning treatment. Ensure proper use of the Moisture Protecting Complex and consider a gentler developer next time.
Color fades too quickly
Use color-safe hair products. Minimize washing with hot water. Avoid chlorine and saltwater exposure where possible. Consider a semi-permanent color if longer lasting results are desired.
