Preparation
- Perform Allergy Patch Test: 48 hours before application, apply a small amount of the mixed product to a discreet area of skin, such as behind the ear. Observe for any reaction.
- Prepare Hair: Wash your hair with a clarifying shampoo to remove any product buildup. Do not use conditioner immediately before coloring. Towel-dry your hair thoroughly.
- Protect Skin and Clothing: Apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly around your hairline to prevent skin staining. Drape an old towel or cape over your shoulders to protect clothing.
- Mix Color Cream: Put on the provided gloves. Open the developer milk bottle and the nourishing color cream tube. Squeeze the entire contents of the color cream tube into the developer milk bottle. Close the bottle securely and shake vigorously for at least 30 seconds until the mixture is uniform.
Application (Operating)
- Apply Mixture: Immediately after mixing, unscrew the applicator tip. Apply the mixture evenly to your hair. For first-time coloring or root touch-up, follow specific instructions in the leaflet. Generally, start applying at the roots, then distribute through the lengths and ends. Ensure all hair is saturated.
- Processing Time: Once application is complete, cover your hair with a shower cap (not included) if desired, to help maintain warmth. Allow the color to process for 30 minutes. Refer to the instruction leaflet for specific timing based on your hair type and desired intensity.
Rinsing & Aftercare (Maintenance)
- Rinse Hair: After the processing time, add a small amount of warm water to your hair and gently massage to emulsify the color. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until the water runs clear and is free of color residue.
- Apply Conditioner: Apply the entire contents of the nourishing conditioner sachet to your hair. Massage gently and leave on for 2-3 minutes.
- Final Rinse: Rinse your hair thoroughly with cool water to seal the cuticle and enhance shine.
- Drying: Gently towel-dry your hair and style as usual.
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Possible Cause / Solution |
|---|---|
| Color did not take evenly | Ensure hair is saturated evenly during application. Hair porosity can also affect results; very porous hair may absorb color differently. |
| Color is too dark/light | Processing time may have been too short or too long. Always adhere to recommended timings. Initial hair color also impacts the final shade. |
| Scalp irritation or itching | This could indicate an allergic reaction. Rinse immediately and consult a medical professional. Always perform a patch test. |
| Hair feels dry or damaged | Ensure you use the nourishing conditioner provided. Avoid over-processing. Consider deep conditioning treatments in the following weeks. |
