Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure hair is clean, dry, and free of styling products. Wear gloves and apply a protective barrier cream to the hairline and ears. Section hair and apply the color evenly, saturating each strand. Follow the processing time recommended on the product packaging (typically 20-30 minutes for semi-permanent). Rinse hair with cool water until it runs clear, and avoid shampooing immediately after rinsing if possible to help set the color.
Compatibility: This product is generally compatible with most hair types. However, it is not intended for use on chemically straightened or permed hair without professional consultation, as it may affect the longevity or vibrancy of the color. For best results, application on clean, unconditioned, and ideally pre-lightened hair is recommended.
Care: To maintain the vibrancy of the Intense Red color, use cool water for washing and opt for sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners designed for color-treated hair. Minimize washing frequency and avoid heat styling as much as possible, as heat can accelerate fading.
