To achieve optimal performance:
Always Perform a Patch Test: Before full application, always conduct a patch test 48 hours in advance to check for allergic reactions and a strand test to predict the final color and processing time on your specific hair.
Even Application: Ensure the bleach mixture is applied evenly and quickly to dry, unwashed hair to promote uniform lift. Avoid overlapping on previously bleached hair.
Monitor Processing Time: Do not exceed the maximum recommended processing time. Check your hair's lightening progress frequently during the process.
Combat Brassiness: The included anti-brass purple conditioner is crucial immediately after rinsing the bleach. Use it generously to neutralize yellow tones and achieve a cooler platinum. For ongoing maintenance, consider incorporating a purple shampoo and conditioner into your regular hair care routine.
Hair Health Post-Bleach: Bleaching can be drying. Follow up with deep conditioning treatments and minimize heat styling to maintain hair health and shine. The 'nourishing hair dye' aspect helps, but external care is still vital.
This product performs best when applied to natural, untreated hair for maximum lift. If your hair has been previously colored or treated, results may vary, and a professional consultation is recommended.
Read Instructions: Thoroughly read the entire instruction leaflet enclosed in the kit before beginning.
Patch Test: Conduct a skin allergy patch test 48 hours before use, as per instructions.
Strand Test: Perform a strand test on a small, hidden section of hair to determine optimal processing time and final color result.
Prepare Work Area: Protect clothing, surfaces, and floors with old towels or newspapers. Have non-metallic bowls, a timer, and gloves ready.
Mix Solution: Follow the specific mixing instructions for the bleach and developer provided in the kit. Ensure a smooth, consistent mixture.
Age Group: Suitable for adults.
Hair Type: Generally compatible with most hair types, but individual results depend on hair's natural pigment, texture, and prior chemical treatments. Not recommended for very damaged or fragile hair.
Previous Treatments: Exercise caution if your hair has been chemically straightened, relaxed, permed, or extensively colored recently. Info needed: [specific wait times after other chemical treatments].
Immediate Post-Bleach Care: After rinsing, use the provided anti-brass purple conditioner. Leave it on for the recommended time to maximize toning.
Deep Conditioning: Bleached hair requires intensive moisture. Incorporate a nourishing hair mask or deep conditioner into your weekly routine.
Gentle Cleansing: Use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners designed for color-treated or bleached hair.
Avoid Excessive Heat: Limit the use of heat styling tools (blow dryers, straighteners, curling irons) as heat can further damage and dry out bleached hair. Use a heat protectant when necessary.
Maintain Tone: To keep platinum bright and free from brassiness, use a purple shampoo and conditioner regularly (e.g., once or twice a week) as needed.
Protect from Sun/Chlorine: Prolonged exposure to sun and chlorinated water can cause bleached hair to fade or turn green. Consider protective sprays or hats.
