• Directions:
  To achieve the most vibrant color, the hair should be pre-lightened as much as possible; on light natural hair, the dye can only give a slight tint, dyeing unbleached black hair will not give any result.
• The use of conditioners interferes with the dye fixation, the color will result in a less saturated shade.
• You can add a small amount of dye to your shampoo to maintain the color for longer.

• The color lasts for about 6-8 washes.
• It is recommended to use neutral and sulfate-free shampoos to prolong the color duration.
• It does not have the power to lighten the hair.

Instructions for use:
Before dyeing, wash your hair with a pH balanced shampoo and towel dry. The day before dyeing, it is not recommended to use conditioners or hair lotions. Transfer the desired amount of dye into a plastic container. For short hair, half of the volume is enough, for long hair the entire content is needed.
Use protective gloves (it is better to choose ones that fit tightly on your hands, rather than the usual wide gloves that often come with dyes). To avoid staining the skin on the face and ears, lubricate them with vaseline or baby oil. For more even application, it is recommended to use a special brush.
Apply the dye to the hair at a distance of 3-4 cm from the scalp and distribute evenly to the tips.
Start coloring the back of the head, making sure the hair is evenly saturated with dye.
After application, carefully comb the hair until the dye becomes foamy, this will indicate the complete absorption of the coloring substances by the hair.
Lighter shades may require a longer brushing time.
Leave the color on the hair for 30-60 minutes or longer, depending on the desired intensity.
Note that lighter shades require longer exposure times. Using a hair dryer will reduce the time to 15-30 minutes and can produce a brighter and longer lasting color.
Rinse the hair under running water; for better color fixation, rinse the hair with a solution of vinegar (mix equal proportions of white vinegar and water, apply to the hair and comb it through, leave the mixture on the hair for 1-2 minutes, then rinse under running water).
Dry hair.
