Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup Instructions
- Perform an Allergy Patch Test: Always conduct a skin allergy test 48 hours before each use, even if you have colored your hair before. Apply a small amount of the mixed product to a clean patch of skin, like behind your ear, and check for any reaction.
- Perform a Strand Test: Before full application, apply the color to a small, hidden section of your hair to preview the final color result and determine the optimal development time.
- Prepare Your Work Area: Gather all necessary tools (gloves, old towels, timer) and protect surfaces from stains.
- Mix the Color: Follow the instructions inside the box to mix the color crème and developer. Ensure thorough mixing immediately before application.
- Apply Evenly: Apply the mixture to dry, unwashed hair, starting where grey is most prominent. Ensure even saturation for consistent color.
- Process: Allow the color to develop for the time specified in the instructions based on your strand test.
- Rinse and Condition: Rinse hair thoroughly until the water runs clear, then apply the provided conditioner to lock in color and shine.
Compatibility
This product is formulated for adult women. It is generally compatible with most hair types seeking a permanent brown color. However, individuals with highly damaged or recently chemically treated hair should consult a professional or perform an extra diligent strand test.
