FAQs

How often can I use John Frieda Precision Foam Colour?

Generally, it's recommended to wait at least 4-6 weeks between permanent color applications to allow your hair to recover and minimize potential damage.

Will this color cover grey hair effectively?

Yes, John Frieda Precision Foam Colour in 3N Deep Brown Black is formulated to provide excellent coverage for grey hair, blending it seamlessly for a natural-looking finish.

Can I use this product if my hair has been previously chemically treated (permed or relaxed)?

Yes, but it's crucial to perform a strand test first. Chemically treated hair can react differently to hair dye, and a strand test will help you determine the correct processing time and ensure your desired color result.

What should I do if I get foam on my skin or clothes?

Immediately wipe off any foam from your skin with a damp cloth. For clothes, rinse immediately with cold water. Prompt action is key to preventing stains.

How long does the color last?

This is a permanent hair color, so it's designed to last until your hair grows out or you recolor it. The vibrancy will gradually fade over time, usually around 4-6 weeks, depending on hair care and washing frequency.

Is it safe to use during pregnancy?

We recommend consulting your doctor or healthcare provider before using any hair coloring products during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Troubleshooting

Color did not take or is uneven.

Ensure hair was thoroughly saturated with foam during application, especially at the roots and back. Hair condition (e.g., very oily, previous product buildup) can also affect uptake. Re-evaluate your application technique for the next coloring session.

Hair feels dry or damaged after coloring.

Always use the conditioner provided in the kit, as it's formulated to help replenish moisture. For future applications, ensure you don't exceed the recommended processing time. Incorporate a deep conditioning treatment into your routine weekly.

Scalp irritation or itching during or after coloring.

This could indicate sensitivity. Stop immediately if severe. Always perform a patch test 48 hours before each coloring session. If irritation persists or is severe, consult a medical professional. Avoid scratching your scalp before coloring.

Color is too dark or not the desired shade.

The final color can be influenced by your natural hair color and porosity. A strand test is crucial to preview the result. To lighten slightly, color removers exist, but they can be harsh. For future use, consider a shade lighter or adjust processing time slightly (after a strand test).

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Drip-Free Application: The foam formula significantly reduces mess and dripping during the coloring process.
  • Excellent Grey Coverage: Effectively covers stubborn grey hairs, blending them seamlessly with your natural or desired shade.
  • Even Color from Root to Tip: Designed to provide uniform color saturation across all hair strands.
  • Rich, Lasting Color: Delivers a vibrant, deep brown black that maintains its intensity for an extended period.
  • Easy to Use at Home: The intuitive foam application makes DIY hair coloring accessible and less daunting.

Cons

  • Potential for Staining: Like all permanent dyes, care must be taken to avoid staining skin, clothing, and surfaces.
  • Scent: Hair dyes often have a strong chemical smell during application, which some users may find unpleasant.
  • Requires Careful Preparation: A patch test and strand test are crucial, adding to the total time commitment.
  • Color Result Variation: Final color can vary based on your original hair color, condition, and previous treatments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup & Preparation

  1. Read Instructions: Thoroughly read the entire instruction leaflet enclosed in the kit before you begin.
  2. Perform a Patch Test: 48 hours before coloring, apply a small amount of the mixed dye to a patch of skin (e.g., behind the ear or inner elbow) to check for allergic reactions. Do not proceed if irritation occurs.
  3. Perform a Strand Test: If you are unsure of the final color result, apply the dye to a small, hidden section of hair first to check the development time and color outcome.
  4. Gather Supplies: Wear old clothes, cover surfaces with towels or newspapers, and have a timer ready. Apply petroleum jelly around your hairline, ears, and neck to prevent skin staining.
  5. Mix the Product: Follow the specific instructions to mix the developer and colorant liquids into the foam dispenser. Shake gently but thoroughly to create the foam.

Application

  1. Section Hair: Divide your dry, unwashed hair into manageable sections.
  2. Dispense Foam: Press the dispenser to release the rich foam into your gloved hand.
  3. Apply Evenly: Work the foam through your hair, starting at the roots and distributing it thoroughly to the ends. Ensure all strands are saturated.
  4. Massage In: Gently massage the foam into your hair to ensure even distribution and full coverage, similar to shampooing.
  5. Process: Leave the color on for the time specified in the instructions (typically 20-30 minutes), based on your strand test results.

Compatibility

  • This product is designed for adult use.
  • Suitable for various hair types, including natural, color-treated, permed, or relaxed hair (always perform a strand test on chemically treated hair).
  • Caution: Not recommended for use on hair that has been previously colored with henna or metallic dyes.

Aftercare

  1. Rinse Thoroughly: Once processing time is complete, rinse your hair with lukewarm water until the water runs clear.
  2. Condition: Apply the conditioning treatment provided in the kit. Leave it on for the recommended time, then rinse.
  3. Maintain Color: Use color-safe shampoos and conditioners to help preserve the vibrancy and longevity of your deep brown black shade.
  4. Protect Hair: Minimize exposure to harsh sunlight, chlorine, and excessive heat styling, which can cause color to fade.
