Application Process:
Preparation: Always perform an allergy patch test 48 hours before use. Put on the gloves provided. Mix the developer and color cream as directed in the kit.
Targeted Application: Using the applicator provided, apply the mixture directly to your roots, focusing on visible regrowth at the hairline, part, and temples. Ensure thorough and even saturation.
Processing Time: Allow the dye to process for the recommended time (typically 10-15 minutes, but always check the specific instructions in the kit) to ensure full color development and gray coverage.
Rinsing & Conditioning: Rinse your hair thoroughly with warm water until the water runs clear. Follow with the conditioner provided in the kit to lock in color and add shine.
Real-World Application Tips:
For best results, apply to dry, unwashed hair.
If your hair is very long or thick, you may need to section it carefully to ensure all root areas are covered.
Wipe any accidental skin stains immediately with a damp cloth.
This product is ideal for extending the period between full-head colorings, keeping your look fresh and consistent.
Read Instructions: Thoroughly read the entire instruction leaflet included in the package before beginning.
Patch Test: Perform an allergy patch test 48 hours before each application, even if you have used hair dye before. Apply a small amount of product mixture to a clean patch of skin, like behind your ear, and observe for any reaction.
Gather Supplies: Ensure you have a towel, old clothing, petroleum jelly (to protect skin around hairline), and a timer ready.
Prepare Mixture: Wear gloves. Open the developer and color cream tubes. Mix them according to the instructions in a non-metallic bowl or applicator bottle. Do not substitute components.
Existing Hair Color: This Golden Brown shade is best suited for individuals with existing brown hair tones to achieve a natural, seamless blend. It may produce different results on lighter or previously colored hair.
Hair Type: Suitable for all adult hair types.
Previous Treatments: Ensure your hair has not been recently treated with henna or metallic dyes, as these can react negatively with permanent hair color. If you have undergone chemical treatments (e.g., perms, relaxers), wait at least two weeks before coloring.
Post-Color Conditioning: Use the conditioner provided in the kit immediately after rinsing to help seal the cuticle and enhance color vibrancy.
Gentle Washing: After coloring, use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners designed for color-treated hair to help maintain color longevity.
Avoid Hot Water: Wash hair with lukewarm or cool water, as hot water can strip color faster.
Limit Heat Styling: Excessive heat styling can fade color. Use heat protectants when styling and opt for lower heat settings.
Sun Protection: Prolonged sun exposure can fade hair color. Consider wearing a hat or using UV-protectant hair products when outdoors for extended periods.
