FAQs
Does this product require a developer?
Yes, Igora Royal is a permanent hair color and must be mixed with a compatible Schwarzkopf Igora Royal Oil Developer.
Can I use this on dark hair?
While it can be used on dark hair, vibrant blue results typically require the hair to be pre-lightened to a pale blonde level before application.
Is this safe for sensitive scalps?
It is formulated for salon use with comfort in mind, but a patch test is always recommended 48 hours before use to rule out sensitivities.
Can I mix this with other colors?
Yes, Igora Royal shades are fully intermixable, allowing for custom color creation.
How long should I leave the color on?
Standard processing time is typically 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the desired intensity and the developer used.
Troubleshooting
Color appears uneven
Ensure proper sectioning during application and verify that the hair was fully saturated from roots to ends.
Color is too dark or too light
Check your developer strength; 10 volume (3%) is for darkening or tone-on-tone, while 30 or 40 volume (9% or 12%) is for lightening.
Blue tone fades quickly
Use sulfate-free color-protecting products and minimize washing frequency with hot water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the product, mix the Igora Royal color with the appropriate Igora Royal Oil Developer in a non-metallic bowl. Typically, a 1:1 mixing ratio is used, though you should verify this against the specific needs of the hair type (e.g., 3%, 6%, 9%, or 12% developer). Always perform a strand test before a full application to check for allergic reactions and to confirm the desired color outcome. To care for the hair post-color, use pH-balanced shampoos and conditioners designed for color-treated hair to seal the cuticle and lock in the blue pigment. Avoid excessive heat styling immediately after treatment to prolong the life of the color.
