Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure you have the appropriate developer volume for your hair's current condition and your desired outcome.
- Preparation: Perform a patch test 48 hours prior to full application to check for sensitivities.
- Mixing: Combine the color with the developer in a non-metallic bowl according to the specific ratio instructions provided by the brand.
- Application: Apply evenly to clean, dry hair starting from the roots and working through to the ends.
- Timing: Follow professional timing guidelines; do not exceed recommended processing times to avoid over-processing.
- Post-Color Care: Use color-safe shampoos and conditioners specifically designed to seal the cuticle and preserve the vibrancy of permanent color treatments.
