What's in the Box
Your Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Permanent Hair Dye kit contains the following components:
- 1 Tube VS PrecisionMix™ Permanent Color Crème
- 1 Bottle Applicator of VS PrecisionMix™ Developer Crème
- 1 Tube VS HydraBlock™ Color Preserving Conditioner
- 1 Pair of Colorist Gloves
This image shows the components included in the hair dye kit: one tube of VS PrecisionMix™ Permanent Color Crème, one bottle applicator of VS PrecisionMix™ Developer Crème, one tube of VS HydraBlock™ Color Preserving Conditioner, and one pair of colorist gloves.
Preparation
Before beginning the coloring process, ensure you have performed the mandatory allergy patch test 48 hours prior to application. Additionally, a strand test is recommended to preview your color result and determine the optimal processing time for your hair type.
Gather all necessary items, including the kit contents, an old towel to protect clothing, and a timer. Ensure your hair is dry and unwashed for at least 24-48 hours before coloring, as this helps protect your scalp and allows the color to adhere better.
Application Instructions
Follow these steps carefully for optimal results:
- Put on the colorist gloves provided in the kit.
- Tear off and discard the tab from the VS PrecisionMix™ Developer Crème application bottle. Unscrew the applicator bottle cap.
- Add the entire contents of the VS PrecisionMix™ Permanent Color Crème tube to the VS PrecisionMix™ Developer Crème applicator bottle.
- Carefully replace the applicator bottle cap. Place a gloved finger over the applicator tip, point away from your face, and shake thoroughly for a minimum of 20 seconds until the mixture is fully blended.
- Immediately apply the color mixture to your hair as directed in the enclosed leaflet. Ensure even saturation for consistent color.
- Allow the color to process for the time indicated in the leaflet, typically around 30 minutes for bold color.
- Rinse hair thoroughly with warm water until the water runs clear.
- Apply the VS HydraBlock™ Color Preserving Conditioner, leave on for the recommended time, then rinse.

Care and Maintenance
To maintain your vibrant hair color and ensure hair health, use the VS HydraBlock™ Color Preserving Conditioner included in your kit. This water-resistant conditioner coats each strand to help prevent fade out and keep your color vibrant.
After coloring, ensure you rinse your hair thoroughly until the water runs completely clear. Residual dye can continue to process or transfer to clothing. For best results, consider using VS Color shampoo and conditioner specifically designed for color-treated hair.
This graphic illustrates that the hair color can remain vibrant for up to 8 weeks.
Troubleshooting
- Color Fading Quickly: Ensure you are using color-safe shampoos and conditioners. Avoid excessive heat styling and prolonged sun exposure, which can accelerate fading. Always use the provided VS HydraBlock™ Color Preserving Conditioner.
- Uneven Color: This can occur if the product was not applied evenly or if hair was not fully saturated. Ensure thorough mixing of the color and developer, and apply systematically from roots to ends. A strand test can help determine optimal processing time for different hair sections.
- Staining on Skin/Clothing: Apply a barrier cream (like petroleum jelly) around your hairline before application. Wear old clothes and gloves. If dye gets on skin, wipe immediately. For clothing stains, consult stain removal guides for hair dye. Thorough rinsing after application is crucial to prevent transfer.
