Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup Instructions
- Perform Patch Test (Mandatory): 48 hours before full application, apply a small amount of the mixed dye behind your ear or on your inner elbow. Do not proceed if you experience any irritation.
- Preparation: Put on the provided protective gloves. Read the instructions leaflet carefully.
- Mixing: Pour the entire contents of the caring colourant crème into the developer crème bottle. Securely close the developer bottle.
- Shake: Shake the developer bottle vigorously for at least 30 seconds until the mixture is thoroughly combined.
- Application: Immediately after mixing, apply the colour mixture to dry, unwashed hair as per the instructions provided in the packet (either root touch-up or full-head application).
- Processing: Leave the color on for the recommended time specified in the instructions, usually around 30 minutes, depending on desired intensity and grey coverage.
- Rinsing: Once the processing time is complete, rinse hair thoroughly with lukewarm water until the water runs clear. Do not use shampoo at this stage.
- Conditioning: Apply a generous amount of the Colour Lock Conditioner. Massage it through your hair and leave it on for 2 minutes before rinsing thoroughly.
Compatibility
This product is designed for adult use and is suitable for most hair types. As a permanent hair dye, it's effective on natural or previously colored hair, though results can vary based on your current hair color and condition. It offers optimal grey coverage.
Care Instructions
- Post-Color Care: Use the Colour Lock Conditioner weekly to maintain vibrancy and shine.
- Protect Hair: Avoid excessive sun exposure and chlorine, which can fade hair color.
- Gentle Washing: Use color-safe shampoos and conditioners to prolong the life of your color.
- Future Applications: Always perform a new patch test 48 hours before each subsequent application, even if you have used this product before, as sensitivities can develop over time.
