Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this product suitable for first-time hair color users?

While it's primarily for root touch-ups on previously colored or natural hair, if it's your first time using *any* hair dye, you *must* perform a skin allergy patch test 48 hours prior to application.

How long does the color last?

This is a permanent hair dye, meaning the color will last until your hair grows out or you recolor it. It does not wash out.

Can I use this for a full head of color?

No, the 30ml size and specific formulation are designed solely for root touch-ups. Using it on your entire head may lead to uneven results or insufficient coverage.

What if my hair is a different shade of brown?

For best results, always select the shade that most closely matches your existing hair color. This product is specifically for '6 Light Brown.' Using a significantly different shade may result in a noticeable color difference.

Do I need to perform a patch test every time I use this product?

Yes, it is crucial to perform a skin allergy patch test 48 hours before *each* and *every* application, even if you have used hair dyes before. Allergies can develop over time without prior warning.

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

Immediately wipe off any dye that gets on your skin with a damp cloth or a dedicated color remover wipe. If a stain remains, gently rub with a small amount of shampoo or soap, then rinse.

Can I mix this root touch-up with another hair dye product?

No, do not mix different hair dye products together. This can lead to unpredictable results, inconsistent color, or adverse chemical reactions.

Troubleshooting

Color doesn't match my existing hair.

Ensure you selected the correct shade (6 Light Brown) that closely matches your base color. Hair porosity and existing color can affect the final result. For future applications, consider performing a strand test on a hidden section of hair before full application.

Grey roots are not fully covered or appear translucent.

Ensure adequate product application on stubborn grey areas, making sure the hair is saturated. Sometimes, leaving the product on for the maximum recommended time (e.g., up to 20 minutes) can improve coverage. Confirm hair was clean and dry before application.

My scalp feels itchy or irritated after application.

Immediately rinse the product off thoroughly with water and discontinue use. If irritation persists, consult a medical professional. This highlights the importance of always performing a skin allergy patch test 48 hours before *every* application.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective Grey Root Coverage: Reliably conceals visible grey roots.
  • Permanent Results: Provides long-lasting color that stands up to washing.
  • Natural Blending: Designed to integrate smoothly with your existing hair color.
  • Extends Time Between Full Colors: Helps maintain your look longer, reducing the frequency of full color applications.
  • Quick Application: The targeted design makes for a fast and efficient touch-up process.

Cons

  • Small Volume: 30ml is suitable only for roots, not intended for full head coloring.
  • Shade Matching Crucial: Requires precise matching to your current hair color to avoid noticeable differences.
  • Permanent Commitment: Once applied, the color is permanent until hair grows out or is recolored.
  • Allergy Patch Test Required: Always necessitates a 48-hour allergy patch test before each use.
  • Not for Lightening: Not designed for significant hair color changes or lightening.

Setup

  1. Perform a Patch Test: Always conduct a skin allergy patch test 48 hours before *each* application, even if you've used hair dye before. Follow instructions in the product leaflet carefully.
  2. Prepare Work Area: Protect clothing and surfaces from stains. Gather gloves, a non-metallic bowl, and an applicator brush (if not provided).
  3. Mix Product: Following the provided instructions, mix the color cream and developer thoroughly in a non-metallic bowl until a uniform consistency is achieved.
  4. Apply to Roots: Wearing gloves, apply the mixture directly to dry, unwashed roots. Focus on areas with the most noticeable regrowth or grey hairs.
  5. Process Time: Allow the color to develop for the time specified in the instructions, typically 10-15 minutes, or up to 20 minutes for stubborn greys.
  6. Rinse Thoroughly: Once processing is complete, rinse your hair with warm water until the water runs clear. Condition with a color-safe conditioner.

Compatibility

  • Shade Matching: This product is specifically designed for '6 Light Brown' hair. For optimal results, ensure your current hair color closely matches this shade.
  • Hair Condition: Best used on natural or previously color-treated hair. Not recommended for use on extensively bleached, highlighted, or chemically straightened hair without professional advice.
  • Purpose: Exclusively for root touch-ups; not intended for full head application or significant color changes.

Care

  • Color-Safe Products: Use shampoos and conditioners specifically formulated for color-treated hair to help maintain vibrancy and longevity.
  • Avoid Immediate Washing: Wait 24-48 hours before shampooing after coloring to allow the color to fully set.
  • Protect from Elements: Limit prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and chlorinated water, which can cause color fade.
  • Storage: Store unused, unmixed components in a cool, dry place. Mixed product must be used immediately and cannot be saved for later use.
