How to use

- On virgin hair, apply to lengths and ends and process for 15 minutes, then distribute onto the roots for a further 30 minutes.
- On previously coloured hair, apply to the roots and process for 30 minutes, then lightly dampen and emulsify onto the lengths for 5-10 minutes for uniformity.
- Add a small amount of warm water and gently massage to emulsify the colour, distributing the shade evenly for extra shine.
- Rinse until the water runs clear, then use a colour-safe shampoo to seal in the pigments.
