Perform a patch test 48 hours before dyeing. For best results, apply your dye on dry, unwashed hair. When you're ready to start, put on an old dark colored T-shirt or an outfit that you won't mind getting stained if things happen to get messy. Drape an old dark colored towel over your shoulders, and secure it with a hair clip. Put on the gloves provided in the hair color kit, and mix up the colorant and developer according to the instructions. Shake the mixture well, making sure to cover the bottle tip with your finger, to mix all the components together thoroughly.
For full head application:
1. Squeeze colorant cream tube into developer bottle and shake well.
2. Apply onto root area with bottle.Spread the remaining mixture evenly through hair.
For root touch-up application:
1. Squeeze colorant cream tube into developer bottle and shake well.
2. Use the tip of the bottle to section hair and apply directly to roots.
3. Spread the mixture evenly over root area. When you're finished, leave the mixture on for the processing time per the package instructions. Rinse your hair, using your hands to separate sections and work apart any tangles, until the water runs completely clear. Your kit comes with a bottle of color-protecting conditioner, apply the conditioner to your hair, and wait for two minutes before rinsing it off. Your hair should feel soft, silky and strong. After that, you're good to go! Towel dry (with an old or dark colored towel), style, and rock your new shade with confidence.
