FAQs

Can I use this on bleached hair?

Yes, but keep in mind that the color may turn out much more intense or different than expected on bleached or porous hair.

How long does the color last?

As this is a permanent hair dye, it is designed to last until your natural hair grows out or the color fades significantly over many weeks.

Is this product suitable for covering grey hair?

Schwarzkopf LIVE dyes are designed for color intensity, but coverage on stubborn grey hair can vary; always follow the timing instructions for maximum effect.

Do I need to wash my hair before applying?

It is best to apply to dry, unwashed hair to allow the natural oils to protect the scalp during the coloring process.

Can I mix this with other colors?

It is not recommended to mix this product with other brands or shades, as this can affect the chemical balance and final color outcome.

What should I do if the dye gets in my eyes?

Rinse immediately and thoroughly with plenty of lukewarm water and consult a medical professional if irritation persists.

Troubleshooting

Color is uneven or patchy

Ensure you are using enough product for your hair volume and distribute it thoroughly with a comb during the application process.

Color is too dark

Keep track of processing time exactly; do not exceed the recommended duration provided in the instructions.

Staining on the skin

Apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly along the hairline and ears before applying dye to create a barrier.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before you begin, ensure you have an old towel to protect your clothing and a non-metallic bowl and brush if you prefer not to use the applicator bottle directly.

  1. Preparation: Perform an allergy alert test 48 hours before the application.
  2. Application: Apply to dry, unwashed hair.
  3. Timing: Follow the specific development time indicated in the packaging leaflet carefully to avoid over-processing.
  4. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly until the water runs clear and follow up with a nourishing conditioner to seal the cuticle.
  5. Maintenance: To keep the color vibrant, use color-safe shampoos and avoid excessive heat styling, which can fade the pigment faster.
