FAQs
How long does John Frieda Precision Foam Colour last?
This is a permanent hair color, meaning it lasts until your hair grows out or you recolor it. The color will gradually fade over time with washing and exposure, but the change is not temporary like semi-permanent dyes.
Can I use this product if I have previously colored my hair?
Yes, you can use it on previously colored hair. However, the final color result may vary depending on your existing hair color and condition. Always perform a strand test to preview the outcome.
Is a patch test really necessary every time?
Yes, it is crucial to perform an allergy patch test 48 hours before *each* application, even if you have used hair color products before. Allergies can develop suddenly.
How do I perform a strand test?
Mix a tiny amount of the color formula and apply it to a small, hidden section of hair. Leave it on for the recommended processing time, then rinse and dry to see the result. This helps determine the ideal processing time for your desired shade.
What should I do if the foam doesn't come out evenly?
Ensure you shook the applicator bottle the recommended number of times (usually 5 times, check instructions) and only tipped it upside down once. Do not over-shake. If it's still uneven, re-read the mixing instructions carefully for your next application.
Can I use this product to cover grey hairs?
Info needed: [Specific product details on grey coverage are not provided. However, permanent hair dyes are generally formulated to cover grey hair effectively. Refer to the product packaging for specific grey coverage claims.]
Troubleshooting
Color did not turn out as expected.
The final color can vary based on your starting hair color, porosity, and processing time. Ensure you performed a strand test. If the color is too light, you may re-apply after a few weeks (always patch test again). If too dark, info needed: [Consult a professional stylist for correction as lightening at home can be damaging.]
Uneven color or 'hot roots'.
This often happens if the color is applied unevenly or if roots process faster. Ensure thorough, even application from roots to ends, especially if your roots are significantly lighter. Applying to roots last or for a shorter duration can help balance the result.
Skin staining occurred.
Apply a barrier cream (like petroleum jelly) around your hairline, ears, and neck before application. If staining occurs, gently wipe immediately with a damp cloth or a small amount of shampoo on cotton. Specialized dye removers can also be used carefully.
Hair feels dry or damaged after coloring.
Always use the conditioner provided after coloring. Incorporate a deep conditioning treatment into your routine once a week. Avoid excessive heat styling and use color-safe, moisturizing hair products to help restore hydration.
Allergic reaction after patch test.
DO NOT proceed with coloring. Seek medical attention if symptoms are severe. Note the ingredients to avoid in the future. Discontinue use of the product.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Effortless Application: The foam consistency is easy to distribute evenly, even on hard-to-reach areas like the back of the head.
- Mess-Free Formula: The non-drip foam reduces the likelihood of staining clothes, skin, or bathroom surfaces.
- Uniform Colour Results: Helps achieve consistent color coverage across all strands, reducing the chance of missed spots or uneven tones.
- Long-Lasting: Provides permanent color that retains its shade and vibrancy for an extended period.
- Convenient for Home Use: Simplifies the at-home coloring process, saving time and money compared to salon visits.
Cons
- Patch Test Requirement: Mandates a 48-hour patch test prior to each use, which requires planning.
- Potential for Staining: While non-drip, direct contact with skin or porous surfaces can still cause staining if not immediately wiped away.
- Initial Learning Curve: First-time foam dye users might need a moment to adjust to the application technique.
- Cannot Lighten Drastically: Like most at-home dyes, significant hair lightening beyond 1-2 shades from your natural color may require professional assistance.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Read Instructions: Carefully read the entire instruction leaflet enclosed in the box before you begin.
- Patch Test (Crucial): Perform an allergy patch test 48 hours before coloring by applying a small amount of mixed dye to a discreet area of skin (e.g., behind the ear or inner elbow). Do not proceed if irritation occurs.
- Prepare Your Space: Lay down old towels or newspaper to protect surfaces from accidental spills. Have a damp cloth ready for immediate cleanup.
- Protect Yourself: Wear the gloves provided in the kit throughout the entire application and rinsing process.
- Mix the Foam: Follow the instructions to mix the developer and colorant precisely to create the foam. Shake the bottle the specified number of times; over-shaking can reduce foam quality.
- Strand Test (Recommended): Apply the mixed foam to a small, hidden section of hair to determine the optimal processing time for your desired color result.
Compatibility
- Hair Type: Suitable for most natural or previously colored adult hair types. Not recommended for use on hair that has been treated with henna or progressive dyes.
- Scalp Health: Avoid use on irritated, damaged, or broken skin on the scalp.
- Age Group: Formulated for adult use only.
Care
- Rinse Thoroughly: After processing, rinse your hair with lukewarm water until the water runs clear.
- Condition: Apply the conditioner provided in the kit. Leave on for the recommended time, then rinse.
- Color-Safe Products: To maintain color vibrancy, use shampoos and conditioners specifically designed for color-treated hair.
- Limit Washing: Avoid washing your hair every day, as this can cause color to fade faster. Use dry shampoo between washes if needed.
- Heat Protection: When using heat styling tools, apply a heat protectant to minimize color fade and damage.
- Sun Protection: Prolonged sun exposure can fade hair color. Consider using UV protection sprays or wearing a hat outdoors.
