Do not wash hair before coloring. Always use protective gloves. Use a bowl (not metal) or plastic shaker to prepare mixture. Do not use metal tools.
1. How to prepare mixture:
A) Shades: natural, beige - dore, copper - acajou - red, chocolate - brown, supreme reds are prepared in a 1+1 ratio. I.E. 50ml beauty color + 50ml oxycreme emulsion
B) Super blonds: the super blonds shades are prepared in a 1+2 ratio. E.G. 50ml beauty color super blond + 100 ml oxycreme emulsion. For light hair-base tones or when you do not wish for maximum bleaching, the use of a 30v (9%) oxidizing emulsion is recommended. For very thin or tired hair also use the 30v (9%) oxidizing emulsion.
C) Coloring white hair: beauty color offers 1005 coverage of white hair. When white hair exceeds 40%, it is necessary to add a natural shade (1-10). For 40-60% white hair: mix the color of your choice with a natural shade in a ration: 2 parts beauty color in selected shade + 1 part natural shade. E.G. Beauty color 50ml nr. 7.74 + 25ml nr. 7 (natural shade). From 60-100% white hair: mix the color of your choice with a natural shade in ration: 1 part beauty color in selected shade + 1 part natural shade. E.G. Beauty color 50ml nr. 7.74 + 50ml (natural shade). For the supreme red shades the ratio remains: 2 parts beauty color in selected shade + 1 part natural shade e.G. Beauty color 50ml nr.6,60 + 25ml nr. 6 (natural shade).
2. Application: use hair coloring mixture directly after preparation.
Protect the eyes. Protect your clothing. Use only the recommended oxidizing creams. Follow the recommended ratios to prepare coloring mixture. During the development time, the mixture in the shaker or bowl changes color. This is no cause for alarm. This has no effect on the color result of the hair colorant.
2.1. Total application in the same tone or a darker one: apply the coloring mixture evenly throughout the hair, from roots to tips, separating the hair in small strands. Development time: 30-40 minutes.
2.2 Total application in a lighter tone or to lighter hair:
Step 1: start about 2cm from hair roots and apply hair colorant to lengths and tips of hair. Development time: for all shades: 30-40 minutes / for super blonds & supreme reds: 50 minutes.
For a brighter color result, use a higher vol oxycreme on lengths and tips of hair than the one used on the hair roots.
2.3. Coloring hair roots: apply hair coloring cream to roots. Start from te parts where there is more white hair. For better coverage, apply ample quantity to hair roots. Development time: 30-40 minute. The hairline around the face should be colored last, as this area has very delicate hair (fine hair roots). When using a hair lightening cream, start from parts of hair which need more lightening. When lightening the color of hair, you should apply a larger amount of colorant than with other coloring creams. Development time for super blonds: 50 minutes.
2.4. Even color from hair roots to hair tips
A) if color on hair lengths and tips is slightly faded, spray hair with some water and apply the remaining amount on lengths and tips of hair 5 minutes before the end of the development time.
B) if color on hair lengths and tips is quite faded, apply remaining remaining mixture after 20 minutes of development time and leave on hair for 10-20 minutes.
C) if color on hair lengths and tips is very faded, apply colorant to hair roots and then continue immediately on hair lengths and tips. For development time, see coloring of hair roots. D) if hair tips are very damaged and tend to "Push away" color, apply the selected shade on hair roots and the add 5ml lukewarm water to mixture and 2.5gr of warm shade (.3,.4,.5,.6) in the same tone level and ends. Massage well. Development time: 30-40 minutes.
2.5. Application for bases - mixtones: these are the shades that help strengthen the shade of the hair colorant, neutralise or correct unwanted shades, or correct any possible mistakes. The mixing proportions depend on the height of the tone of the basic shade that we wish to use. The lighter the shade the less quantity of bases mixtones we use. Starting from the darker shades (tones 2), we use approximately 9gr. Mixtone in 50gr of product. As the shade, depending on the result we wish to obtain.
2.6 Pastel shades:
Suitable for bleached hair or for hair with highlights
A) Mixing: pastel shades are mixed at a 1+1 ratio, I.E. 70ml beauty color pastel + 70ml oxycreme emulsion 4% or 10v.
B) Application: hair base: pre-bleached at the tone of 10 or lighter
To get the desirable result, pastel shades should be applied on hair with prior artificial bleaching process (decapage), until you reach a very light blonde tone, in order to avoid a yellowish or brassy shade, I.E. 10.1 by beauty color. Finally, apply the pastel dye mixture evenly on dry hair, on the bleached areas. Waiting time 40 minutes
3. Rinsing & care after coloring: when development time is over, wear disposable gloves. Gently massage hair very well, adding some warm water run clear. Wash hair with the special, neutralising conditioner colorfix conditioner with green tea extracts and silk proteins.
