Schwarzkopf Live Intense Colour 030 Mango Twist is engineered for maximum color impact. The product works by activating its specialized Vibrancy Serum, which, infused with beneficial vitamins and oils, helps the color pigments penetrate deeply into each hair strand. This process not only delivers a deeply intense and uniform orange shade but also seals in color for impressive fade resistance.
In real-world use, users can expect a high-impact, glossy finish that effectively covers grey hairs. The intensity of the final color can be influenced by your hair's original shade and porosity, so always perform a strand test if you're unsure. The rich formula ensures the color is vibrant from root to tip, providing a striking transformation that lasts.
Preparation is Key: Ensure your hair is dry and unwashed for 24-48 hours before coloring to allow natural oils to protect your scalp.
Even Application: Carefully follow the instructions to ensure the color cream is distributed uniformly across all desired sections of hair.
Timing: Adhere strictly to the recommended development time. Leaving it on too long won't make the color more intense and could potentially damage your hair.
Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly until the water runs clear, then apply the after-care conditioner provided (if any) to lock in color and shine.
Safety First: Perform an Allergy Alert Test (Patch Test) 48 hours before each use. Apply a small amount of the unmixed colorant to a clean area of skin, like behind the ear. Do not wash, cover, or touch. If you experience any reaction, do not use the product.
Strand Test: If you are unsure of the result or have previously colored hair, perform a strand test on a small, hidden section of hair to check the color outcome and processing time.
Gather Supplies: Before you begin, lay out old towels, wear old clothing, and have gloves (provided in the box) readily accessible. You may also want to apply petroleum jelly around your hairline to prevent skin staining.
Mixing: Mix the color cream and developer strictly according to the instructions in the leaflet provided in the box.
This product is formulated for adult use.
It is generally compatible with most hair types, but the final color result will vary depending on your starting hair color (natural or previously colored).
Do not use if your hair has been previously colored with henna or metallic salts, as this can lead to unpredictable results.
Use Color-Safe Products: Opt for shampoos and conditioners specifically designed for colored hair to help preserve the vibrancy and prevent premature fading.
Cool Water Rinses: Rinse your hair with lukewarm or cool water instead of hot water, as hot water can strip color faster.
Limit Heat Styling: Reduce the frequency of heat styling (blow-drying, straightening, curling) and always use a heat protectant spray to minimize color degradation.
Sun Protection: UV rays can fade hair color. Consider wearing a hat or using hair products with UV filters when exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods.
Deep Conditioning: Incorporate regular deep conditioning treatments to keep your hair hydrated and healthy, which helps maintain color vibrancy and shine.
