FAQs

Is this dye suitable for all hair types?

Yes, it is designed for unisex use, but performance may vary based on existing hair health and previous color treatments.

Do I need a specific developer?

Yes, Kevin Murphy Color.Me requires a compatible developer. Follow the brand-specific mixing ratios for optimal results.

How long does the color last?

As a permanent hair dye, it is formulated for long-term retention, though fade resistance depends on hair care habits and frequency of washing.

Can I mix this with other shades?

While the system allows for professional mixing, it is recommended to follow professional formulation guides to ensure predictable results.

How often should I touch up the roots?

Root touch-ups are typically required every 4 to 6 weeks, depending on your natural hair growth rate.

Troubleshooting

Color appears uneven after application

Ensure uniform sectioning and saturate the hair strands completely during the initial application.

Color is too dark

Check your starting hair level; if your hair is porous, the pigment may absorb faster, requiring shorter processing times.

Scalp irritation

Immediately rinse with cool water and discontinue use. Ensure you perform a patch test 48 hours before full application in the future.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, ensure you have the appropriate developer volume as recommended by the professional guidelines for this line. Mix the dye in a non-metallic bowl using a tint brush to maintain the chemical integrity of the mixture. Before a full application, always perform a patch test on a small area of skin behind the ear to check for sensitivities. After coloring, use color-safe shampoos and conditioners to prolong the vibrancy of the 8.28 shade. Avoid excessive heat styling for 48 hours following the treatment to allow the cuticle to fully settle. Store the tubes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature oxidation of the pigment.
