The Schwarzkopf Professional Chroma ID Hair Colour Mask in Brown is designed for individuals seeking to refresh, tone, or experiment with their hair color without a long-term commitment. It delivers vibrant, customizable color results while simultaneously improving hair quality, making it ideal for those who prioritize both color and hair health. The primary benefit is its low-commitment, versatile application, allowing for personalized shade creation and quick color changes.

The Schwarzkopf Professional Chroma ID Hair Colour Mask in Brown offers a versatile solution for maintaining, refreshing, and enriching brown hair tones, or for adding warmth and depth to lighter hair. Its unique formulation with Bonding Technology means that while you're adding color, you're also providing intensive nourishment, leaving hair feeling healthier and looking shinier.
How it Performs:
Color Refresh: Effectively revitalizes faded brown shades, bringing back vibrancy and depth.
Toning: Can be used to neutralize unwanted warm undertones in lighter brown or blonde hair, achieving a cooler brown result.
Subtle Enhancement: For naturally brown hair, it adds a rich, shiny overtone without drastic change.
Customization: When intermixed with other Chroma ID shades (e.g., Clear for dilution, or a red for a warmer brown), it allows for precise control over the final hue and intensity. This is particularly useful for achieving specific brunette tones or for creating multi-dimensional effects.
Real-World Application Examples:
Refreshing a Faded Brunette: Apply to dull, faded brown hair for 5-10 minutes to restore its rich, vibrant brown tone and shine.
Adding Warmth to Cool Brown: Mix a small amount of a red Chroma ID mask with the brown to infuse subtle warm undertones, preventing a flat look.
Deepening Natural Brown: Use on natural brown hair to enhance its depth and add a beautiful, healthy sheen, making it look richer and more lustrous.
Post-Balayage Toning: For clients with balayage or highlights, apply to the brown sections to maintain their tone while the lighter sections can be treated with other Chroma ID shades or left as is.
Setup & Application:
Preparation: Wash and towel-dry your hair. Wear gloves to prevent staining hands.
Application: Apply the Chroma ID Colour Mask directly to the hair. You can use a comb for even distribution, focusing on areas you wish to color or refresh.
Mixing (Optional): For customized shades, mix the brown mask with other Chroma ID masks (e.g., Clear to dilute intensity, or other colors for new hues) in a non-metallic bowl before application.
Processing Time: Leave the mask on for 5-10 minutes for a color refresh and conditioning boost. For more intense results, you may extend the time up to 20 minutes, though it's recommended to perform a strand test first.
Rinsing: Rinse hair thoroughly with cool water until the water runs clear. Do not shampoo immediately after.
Compatibility:
Hair Types: Suitable for all hair types.
Hair Color: Most effective for refreshing and toning brown hair, or for adding brown tones to pre-lightened, highlighted, or naturally light blonde hair. Results on very dark hair may be more subtle.
Professional Use: Designed for professional use but also suitable for at-home maintenance.
Care & Maintenance:
Frequency: The low-commitment nature means the color will gradually fade. Reapply as needed, typically every few washes, to maintain desired vibrancy.
Shampoo & Conditioner: Use color-safe shampoo and conditioner to help preserve the color for longer.
Water Temperature: Rinse hair with cool or lukewarm water to minimize color fading.
Storage: Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
