FAQs

What is Casting Creme Gloss?

Casting Creme Gloss is a semi-permanent hair dye that offers a gentle coloring experience, providing rich color and a glossy finish without permanently altering your hair's structure. It gradually fades over time.

How long does the Dark Blonde color last?

The color is designed to be long-lasting for a semi-permanent dye, typically fading gradually over 28 shampoos, depending on your hair's condition and how often you wash it.

Can I use this on previously colored or chemically treated hair?

Yes, Casting Creme Gloss is generally suitable for use on previously colored or chemically treated hair. However, it's always recommended to perform a strand test first to check the color outcome and a patch test for any allergic reactions.

Is a patch test really necessary every time I color my hair?

Yes, a 48-hour allergy patch test is mandatory before each and every application, even if you have used hair dyes before or used this specific product previously. Allergies can develop suddenly.

How much product do I need for long or thick hair?

The 180 ml content is typically sufficient for shoulder-length hair. For very long or exceptionally thick hair, you may need two boxes to ensure full and even saturation.

Will Casting Creme Gloss cover grey hair?

Casting Creme Gloss can blend and discreetly cover early grey hairs, providing a natural-looking finish. However, for significant or resistant grey coverage, a permanent dye might be more suitable, as glosses are designed for a softer, more translucent effect.

Troubleshooting

Color did not turn out as expected or is uneven

Ensure you performed a strand test beforehand to predict the result. Uneven application can cause patchy color; next time, ensure thorough and even distribution, especially on roots and ends. Hair porosity differences can also affect uptake; areas with more damage may absorb more color.

Allergic reaction (itching, redness, swelling) during or after application

Immediately rinse your hair and scalp thoroughly with water. Seek medical attention if symptoms persist or worsen. This is why a 48-hour patch test before every use is critically important to prevent severe reactions.

Color fades too quickly

Use color-safe shampoos and conditioners specifically designed to protect dyed hair. Avoid washing hair with very hot water and reduce shampoo frequency. Protect hair from prolonged sun exposure and chlorine, which can strip color faster.

Staining on skin or surfaces

For skin, gently rub stained areas with a damp cloth and a small amount of shampoo or a dedicated dye remover wipe immediately after application. For surfaces, wipe spills immediately with a damp cloth and an all-purpose cleaner. Prevent staining by applying a barrier cream (like petroleum jelly) along your hairline, ears, and neck before application, and by covering surfaces with old towels or newspaper.

Cons

  • Requires a mandatory patch test before every use

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

  1. Read Instructions: Always read the enclosed instruction leaflet thoroughly before you begin.
  2. Patch Test (Crucial): Perform an allergy patch test 48 hours before each application, even if you have colored your hair before. Apply a small amount of the product mix to a clean patch of skin, usually behind the ear or on the inner elbow. Leave for 48 hours without washing, covering, or touching. If any reaction occurs, do not use the product.
  3. Preparation: Put on the protective gloves provided. Cover your shoulders with an old towel to protect clothing. Have a non-metallic bowl and applicator brush ready if you prefer not to use the bottle applicator.
  4. Hair Condition: Ensure your hair is dry and unwashed for at least 24 hours prior to application, unless specified otherwise in the instructions.

Compatibility

  • This product is designed for adult use. It is compatible with most hair types but always perform a strand test if you are unsure of the outcome on previously colored, permed, or chemically treated hair. The Dark Blonde (600) shade is best for those looking to achieve a natural dark blonde hue or enhance existing blonde or light brown tones.

Care

  1. Rinsing: After the development time, rinse your hair thoroughly with warm water until the water runs clear.
  2. Conditioning: Apply the provided conditioner to help seal in the color and add shine. Leave on for the recommended time, then rinse.
  3. Post-Colour Care: To maintain the vibrancy and longevity of your Dark Blonde shade, use color-safe shampoos and conditioners. Avoid excessive washing with hot water, and limit exposure to direct sunlight or chlorinated water, which can accelerate fading. Consider using heat protection sprays when styling with heat tools.
