Schwarzkopf LIVE Colour Drops Semi-Permanent Hair Dye - Crystal Blue

The number of drops depends on your desired intensity and hair length/thickness. Start with 2-5 drops for a subtle tint, 5-10 for a medium vibrancy, and 10-20 for a vivid color. Always mix with conditioner and perform a strand test first to find your ideal ratio.

The color is semi-permanent and typically lasts between 2 to 12 washes. This duration can vary based on your hair's porosity, how frequently you wash it, and the hair care products you use.

Schwarzkopf LIVE Colour Drops are most effective on bleached blonde to dark blonde hair. On dark brown or unbleached hair, the color will likely not be visible or will only provide a very subtle, almost undetectable, tint.

You can mix it with any white conditioner to ensure you can see the true color of the mixture. Avoid using conditioners with strong tints or color-depositing properties that might interfere with the Crystal Blue shade.

The vegan and silicone-free formula is designed to be gentle. Since it's mixed with conditioner, it also adds conditioning benefits during the coloring process. It does not contain harsh chemicals like ammonia or peroxide found in permanent dyes.

Yes, you can mix different shades of Schwarzkopf LIVE Colour Drops to create your own unique custom colors. Always perform a strand test to see the resulting shade before applying to your entire hair.

Ensure your base hair color is bleached blonde to dark blonde. If it is, next time try adding more Crystal Blue drops to your conditioner, and/or leave the mixture on for a longer processing time (up to 20 minutes, after a strand test).

Reduce how often you wash your hair, use cooler water for rinsing, and switch to sulphate-free, color-safe shampoos and conditioners. Also, limit heat styling and consider using a UV protectant.

Make sure your hair is thoroughly detangled and evenly damp before applying. Section your hair and apply the mixture meticulously, using a comb to ensure even distribution from root to tip. Ensure the conditioner and drops are fully mixed.

Always wear gloves during application. Apply petroleum jelly around your hairline, ears, and neck to create a barrier. Immediately wipe off any splashes on skin or surfaces with a damp cloth and soap.
