How To
Preliminary Skin Test
Apply a small amount of test mixture to sensitive skin and allow the area to dry completely. After 48 hours, wash the area. If any abnormal reactions occur, do not proceed with the hair coloring process.
Color Preview Test
To preview your new color, snip a small swatch of hair (¼ inch). Apply the test mixture, making sure that each hair strand is completely covered. After 25 minutes, rinse thoroughly and dry to see results.
Mix Color
Snip off the tip of the Cream Color Developer applicator. Pour all of the Ammonia-Free Colorant into the Cream Color Developer bottle.
Blend Mixture
Replace applicator cap. With your finger over the open tip, shake bottle vigorously until mixture is completely blended.
Apply Hair Color, Full Head Application
Part hair into sections, securing each with a clip. Using the applicator tip, make ¼ inch partings throughout the section and apply the mixer to the root area. Repeat on remaining sections. Comb or gently work remaining mixture through remainder of the hair, saturating strands completely through to the tip. Leave on hair for 25 minutes total. For resistant gray hair, leave on for an additional 5 minutes.
Apply Hair Color, Touch-Up Application
Part hair into sections, securing each with a clip. Using the applicator tip, make ¼ inch partings throughout the section and apply the mixer to the root area only. Repeat on remaining sections. Leave on hair for 20 minutes total. For resistant gray hair, leave on for an additional 5 minutes.
Rinse
With gloves, add a little warm water to your hair and gently massage color mixture through hair. Rinse hair thoroughly with warm water until the water runs clear.
Condition
Apply Mango & Shea Butter Ultra-Moisturizing Conditioner to hair and gently massage to thoroughly saturate. Leave in for 2 minutes, then rinse and style as usual.
