FAQs
How long does the colour last?
The L'Oréal Paris Permanent Hair Colour is designed to last for up to 8 weeks, maintaining its vibrancy and shine.
What is included in the box?
The box contains one colouring gel, one developer cream, and one post-colour conditioner.
Do I need to do a patch test?
Yes, a patch test must be conducted 48 hours before each use to check for allergic reactions. This is a vital safety step.
Can I use this on previously coloured hair?
While possible, results can vary. It is recommended to perform a strand test on a small, hidden section of hair first to see how the colour will take. Avoid using on hair that has been recently bleached or dyed very dark for best results.
How do I achieve the most vibrant results?
For the most intense and vibrant violet shade, applying to lighter or pre-lightened hair is recommended. A strand test will help predict the outcome on your specific hair colour.
What is the 'Liquid Gel technology'?
It is a formula enriched with a UV filter and Vitamin E Derivative designed to provide long-lasting radiance, colour, and shine to your hair.
Troubleshooting
Colour is not as expected.
Results can vary based on your original hair colour, condition, and porosity. Performing a strand test before full application is crucial for previewing the final result. For darker hair, a lighter shade might be needed first for optimal vibrancy.
Scalp irritation during application.
Ensure you have performed the 48-hour patch test prior to application. If irritation occurs, rinse immediately with lukewarm water. Do not use if you have a sensitive, irritated, or damaged scalp.
Uneven colour application.
Ensure hair is sectioned evenly and the colour mixture is applied thoroughly to each section. Using a mirror to check the back of the head can help ensure full coverage.
Colour fades quickly.
Use shampoos and conditioners specifically designed for colour-treated hair. Avoid excessive washing, heat styling, and exposure to chlorine or prolonged sunlight, as these can accelerate fading. The UV filter in the formula helps, but additional protection may be needed.
