FAQs

How long will the 4.02 Tempting Brunette colour last?

The permanent colour is designed to deliver natural, radiant results for up to 8 weeks, depending on your hair care routine and growth.

Is a patch test really necessary every time I colour my hair?

Yes, absolutely. A skin allergy patch test must be performed 48 hours before EACH and EVERY use, even if you have coloured your hair before, as allergies can develop suddenly.

What's included in the L'Oreal Paris Excellence Creme box?

Each box typically includes 1x caring colouring cream, 1x developer, 1x caring scalp shampoo, 1x caring lightweight mask, 1x comb applicator, and protective gloves.

Does this product provide 100% grey coverage?

Yes, L'Oreal Paris Excellence Creme is formulated to provide up to 100% grey coverage, ensuring a uniform and consistent colour.

How long do I leave the colour on my hair?

The recommended processing time is typically under 30 minutes, but you should always refer to the specific instructions provided in the leaflet for precise timing based on your desired result and hair condition.

Is the 4.02 Tempting Brunette suitable for all hair types?

Yes, the non-drip crème formula is designed to be suitable for all hair types, ensuring consistent results across different hair textures.

What is the 'Triple Care Colour Regime'?

The Triple Care Colour Regime refers to the three components that care for your hair: the caring colouring cream (with Pro-Keratin & Ceramide), the caring scalp shampoo (to cleanse gently), and the caring lightweight mask (to nourish after colouring).

Troubleshooting

Colour result is not as expected.

Ensure you followed the instructions precisely, especially regarding processing time. Original hair colour, hair porosity, and previous treatments can influence the final shade. Review the shade guide on the packaging carefully before future applications. Do not attempt to re-colour immediately; wait at least two weeks.

Scalp irritation or itching during or after application.

Immediately rinse your hair thoroughly with water. If irritation persists or worsens, consult a doctor. This highlights the critical importance of performing the 48-hour patch test before every application to detect potential allergies.

Incomplete or patchy grey coverage.

Ensure you applied the colour evenly and thoroughly, especially on areas with higher grey concentration. Make sure sufficient product was used and the recommended processing time was met. For stubborn greys, sometimes a slightly longer processing time (within limits of the instructions) or more careful saturation is needed.

Hair feels dry or damaged after colouring.

While L'Oreal Excellence Creme is formulated to reduce damage, always use the included caring scalp shampoo and lightweight mask. These products are crucial for restoring moisture and strengthening hair. For ongoing care, incorporate a weekly deep conditioning treatment and use colour-safe products.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Comprehensive Hair Care: The Triple Care regime actively protects, cleanses, and nourishes hair.
  • Stronger, Healthier Hair: Pro-Keratin and Ceramide contribute to reduced hair breakage and improved hair texture.
  • Effective Grey Coverage: Reliable for achieving full coverage on grey hair.
  • Convenient & Precise Application: Non-drip formula and comb applicator simplify the at-home colouring process.
  • Long-Lasting Colour: Enjoy vibrant, natural colour for up to two months.
  • Suitable for All Hair Types: The crème formula is versatile and adaptable.

Cons

  • Mandatory Patch Test: Requires a 48-hour patch test before each use, which can delay immediate application.
  • Chemical Product: As with all permanent dyes, it's a chemical process that requires careful handling and adherence to instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

  1. Perform a Skin Allergy Test (Patch Test): Absolutely crucial. Apply a small amount of the mixed product to a discreet area of skin 48 hours before full application. Do not proceed if you experience any reaction.
  2. Prepare Your Workspace: Cover surfaces and wear old clothes. Put on the provided gloves.
  3. Mix the Colour: Unscrew the cap of the developer bottle. Pierce the colouring cream tube and squeeze its entire contents into the developer bottle. Close the applicator cap securely.
  4. Shake Well: Shake the bottle vigorously until the mixture is thoroughly combined and uniform.
  5. Apply Colour: Immediately apply the mixture to dry, unwashed hair using the comb applicator. Follow the specific instructions in the leaflet for root touch-ups or full head application.
  6. Process: Leave the colour on for the recommended time, usually around 20-30 minutes. Do not exceed this time.
  7. Rinse: Rinse your hair thoroughly with warm water until the water runs clear.
  8. Shampoo: Apply the caring scalp shampoo, massage gently, and rinse completely.
  9. Condition: Apply the caring lightweight mask, leave it on for a few minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Store any remaining mask for future use.

  • Gender: Suitable for all individuals seeking to colour their hair.
  • Hair Type: The non-drip crème formula is suitable for all hair types.
  • Colour Family: This specific shade is 4.02 Tempting Brunette, falling within the brown colour family.

Care & Maintenance

  • Follow Triple Care: Always use the included caring shampoo and mask after colouring to maintain hair health and colour vibrancy.
  • Use Colour-Safe Products: To prolong the life of your colour, switch to shampoos and conditioners specifically formulated for colour-treated hair.
  • Limit Heat Styling: Excessive heat can cause colour to fade faster. Use heat protectants if styling with heat.
  • Protect from Sun: Prolonged exposure to sunlight can fade hair colour. Consider wearing a hat or using UV protection hair products.
