Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is a patch test really necessary?

Yes, absolutely. A patch test is crucial and must be performed 48 hours before each coloring session, even if you have previously used this product or other hair dyes. This helps to identify any potential allergic reactions.

How long does the color last?

Clairol Nice'n Easy Crème Permanent Hair Dye provides long-lasting color that endures up to 28 washes. The longevity can vary based on hair type, washing frequency, and exposure to environmental factors.

What comes in the box?

Each box typically contains the Colourblend Formula, Colour Activating Crème, CC+1 ColourSeal™ Conditioner, and Expert Gloves, along with a detailed instruction leaflet.

Can I use this product if I have previously colored my hair?

Generally, yes. However, the final color result can be influenced by your current hair color and any previous treatments. It's advisable to conduct a strand test to preview the outcome before full application.

How often can I color my hair with this product?

The frequency of coloring depends on your hair growth and how quickly roots become visible. Most users re-color every 4-6 weeks, or as needed to cover new growth, following the instructions for root touch-ups or full application.

What should I do if I get the dye on my skin?

If dye gets on your skin during application, immediately wipe it off with a damp cloth or a gentle skin cleanser. The quicker you remove it, the less likely it is to stain. You can also apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly around your hairline before starting to prevent stains.

Troubleshooting

Color result is not as expected or too light.

Ensure you followed the development time precisely. Factors like previous hair color, hair porosity, or not enough product can affect the outcome. If the color is too light, you may need to re-color with the same shade or a slightly darker one after waiting at least 48 hours and performing another patch test. Info needed: [Do not apply a darker shade immediately without proper guidance].

Incomplete grey coverage.

Make sure you applied enough product to grey areas, saturating them thoroughly. Grey hair can be more resistant to color, so ensuring even and ample application is key. Check if the development time was sufficient.

Scalp irritation or itching during/after application.

This could indicate sensitivity. If you experience severe irritation, rinse immediately. Always perform a patch test 48 hours before coloring to identify potential allergic reactions. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

Hair feels dry or damaged after coloring.

The oil-infused formula is designed to minimize this, but ensure you used the provided CC+1 ColourSeal™ Conditioner generously after rinsing. Regularly use deep conditioning treatments or hair masks to restore moisture and maintain hair health.

Color fades too quickly.

This product lasts up to 28 washes. To prolong color, use color-safe shampoos and conditioners. Avoid washing hair with very hot water, excessive sun exposure, and frequent heat styling. Info needed: [Chemical treatments or strong hair products can also strip color].

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Achieves Natural Look: Blends 3 tones for a natural, non-monochromatic hair color.
  • Complete Grey Coverage: Reliably covers 100% of grey hairs.
  • Leaves Hair Soft & Shiny: Oil-infused formula improves hair texture and appearance.
  • Gentle Formulation: Less irritating to the scalp compared to some other dyes.
  • Durable Color: Maintains vibrancy for an extended period.

Cons

  • Permanent Commitment: As a permanent dye, results are long-lasting and cannot be easily washed out.
  • Requires Careful Application: Proper mixing and application are necessary to ensure even results.
  • Info needed: Potential for Allergic Reaction: A patch test is always required before use to mitigate risks of allergic reactions.
  • Color Variation: Actual color result may vary based on original hair color, texture, and condition.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Inside each box, you will find:

  • Colourblend Formula
  • Colour Activating Crème
  • CC+1 ColourSeal™ Conditioner
  • Expert Gloves

Before you begin:

  1. Perform a patch test 48 hours prior to full application to check for allergic reactions. This is crucial even if you've used hair dye before.
  2. Read the enclosed instructions leaflet thoroughly. Different shades or formulations might have specific nuances.
  3. Prepare your work area: Cover surfaces to protect from spills and wear old clothes. Have a timer ready.
  4. Mix the formula: Following the instructions, combine the Colourblend Formula with the Colour Activating Crème in the applicator bottle. Shake well to ensure a uniform mixture.
  5. Apply the mixture: Apply the dye to your hair as per the instructions, usually starting at the roots and working towards the ends, or focusing on grey areas first.
  6. Develop: Allow the color to develop for the recommended time.
  7. Rinse & Condition: Rinse hair thoroughly until water runs clear, then apply the CC+1 ColourSeal™ Conditioner. Leave on for the recommended time before rinsing.

Compatibility

This product is designed for adult female users seeking a permanent hair color solution. It can be used on most hair types. If your hair has been chemically treated (e.g., permed or relaxed), it's advisable to wait a few weeks before coloring or consult the product instructions for specific guidance.

Care

To help lock in natural looking color and protect hair between colorings, use the provided CC+1 ColourSeal™ Conditioner. For ongoing care:

  • Use color-safe shampoos and conditioners.
  • Limit exposure to harsh sunlight and chlorinated water, which can cause color to fade.
  • Avoid excessive heat styling, which can also diminish color vibrancy.
  • Follow up with regular conditioning treatments to keep hair soft and healthy.
