FAQs

How long will the Petal Pink color last?

The color typically lasts between 2 to 12 washes. The exact duration depends on factors like the number of drops you used, your hair's porosity, and how frequently you wash your hair.

Can I use these drops on dark brown or black hair?

These drops are formulated to work best on bleached blonde to dark blonde hair. On darker hair colors, the pink shade is unlikely to show up or will only provide a very subtle, almost imperceptible tint.

How many drops should I use for my desired intensity?

For a subtle pastel, start with 1-2 drops. For a more vibrant and intense pink, you can use 5-10 drops or more. Always mix thoroughly with conditioner and perform a strand test to achieve your desired shade before full application.

Are these hair drops permanent?

No, Schwarzkopf LIVE Colour Drops are semi-permanent. They are designed to gradually wash out over time, typically within 2-12 washes, allowing you to change your look frequently without long-term commitment.

Is the formula gentle and safe for my hair?

Yes, the formula is vegan and silicone-free, making it a gentler option. However, as with any hair coloring product, it's always recommended to perform a patch test 48 hours before use to check for any sensitivities, especially if you have a sensitive scalp.

How do I remove the color if I don't like it?

Since it's a semi-permanent color, it will fade with washing. To speed up the fading process, you can try using a clarifying shampoo, washing your hair more frequently, or using warm water. Avoid harsh stripping methods that can damage your hair.

Can I mix this Petal Pink with other LIVE Colour Drop shades?

Info needed: [The product information doesn't explicitly state if colors can be mixed. Based on general knowledge of similar products, mixing is often possible for custom shades, but specific guidance from the brand would be ideal.]

Troubleshooting

Color is too subtle or doesn't show up.

Ensure your hair base is light enough (bleached blonde to dark blonde). Next time, increase the number of drops used in your conditioner mixture and leave it on for the maximum recommended time (up to 10 minutes). Consider a strand test first.

Color fades unevenly or appears patchy.

Apply the mixture to thoroughly towel-dried hair, ensuring even saturation across all desired sections. Use a comb to distribute the product evenly. For very porous hair, apply quickly and evenly. Ensure your conditioner is mixed uniformly with the drops.

Color washes out too quickly.

Use more drops in your mixture for a more intense and potentially longer-lasting result. Wash your hair less frequently, use cool water, and switch to sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners designed for color-treated hair. Reduce heat styling.

Skin or clothes are stained.

Always wear protective gloves during application. Apply a barrier cream (like petroleum jelly) around your hairline, ears, and neck. Wear old clothes or drape a towel. If skin gets stained, quickly wash with soap and water. For clothes, treat immediately with a stain remover suitable for fabric type.

Hair feels dry or damaged after use.

While the formula is gentle, ensure you are mixing it with a hydrating conditioner. If your hair is already very porous or damaged from previous chemical treatments, it might absorb color intensely. Follow up with a deep conditioning treatment. Perform a patch test to ensure suitability for your hair.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Customizable Color: Easily adjust shade intensity from pastel to vibrant by varying drop count.
  • Temporary & Low Commitment: Color fades gradually, perfect for experimenting without long-term commitment.
  • Vegan & Silicone-Free: Gentle formula, appealing to those seeking more natural or ethical hair products.
  • Economical: Up to 30 uses per bottle provides great value and allows for multiple applications.
  • Easy to Use: Simply mix with conditioner for a straightforward application.

Cons

  • Not for All Hair Types: Best results on bleached blonde to dark blonde hair; may not show on darker hair.
  • Fading: Semi-permanent nature means color will wash out, requiring regular reapplication for consistent results.
  • Color Longevity Varies: Duration (2-12 washes) can differ based on hair porosity, shampooing frequency, and number of drops used.
  • Potential for Unevenness: Requires careful, even application to avoid patchy results, especially on very porous hair.

Setup

  1. Preparation: Wash your hair with shampoo and towel-dry until it's damp, not dripping. Put on gloves to prevent staining your hands.
  2. Mixing: Dispense a desired amount of your regular conditioner into a non-metallic bowl.
  3. Add Drops: Add the Schwarzkopf LIVE Colour Drops to the conditioner. Start with a small number (e.g., 1-2 for pastel, 5-10 for vibrant) and mix thoroughly until the color is uniform. You can always add more drops if the color isn't intense enough after a strand test.
  4. Application: Apply the mixture evenly to your hair, focusing on the areas you wish to color. Ensure full saturation for even results.
  5. Development Time: Leave the mixture on for 2-5 minutes for a subtle tint, or up to 10 minutes for a more intense result. Refer to the product packaging for precise timing.
  6. Rinsing: Rinse your hair thoroughly with cool water until the water runs clear. Condition your hair as usual if desired, but remember the drops are mixed with conditioner already.

Compatibility

  • Hair Type: This product is specifically designed for use on bleached blonde to dark blonde hair. It may not show up or provide desired results on darker hair colors (e.g., light brown, medium brown, black).
  • Other Hair Products: Compatible with most shampoos and conditioners. Avoid using heavy oils or silicone-rich products immediately before application, as they can create a barrier.

Care

  • Washing: To prolong the life of your color, wash your hair with cool water and use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners. Frequent washing will cause the color to fade faster.
  • Heat Styling: Minimize heat styling, as high temperatures can also contribute to quicker fading.
  • Sun Exposure: Prolonged sun exposure can lighten hair color. Consider wearing a hat if spending long periods outdoors.
  • Reapplication: Reapply the drops as needed to refresh your color, typically every 2-12 washes, depending on your desired intensity and how quickly your color fades.
