- On virgin hair, distribute evenly over the lengths and ends and leave on for 30-35 minutes.
- On previously coloured hair, apply to the roots first, then after 20 minutes extend to the lengths and ends for the remaining 10-15 minutes.
- Emulsify with a little warm water, massage, then rinse until the water runs clear and finish with a colour-safe shampoo.
Results and expectations
A natural dark brown with even tone from roots to ends and full grey coverage at 20 vol. Vegetal liposomes, hydrolyzed wheat protein and beeswax help protect the fibre during processing, leaving hair soft and shiny. As a permanent colour it grows out at the roots: plan a regrowth touch-up every 4 to 6 weeks.
What you need with it
Always mix with a cream developer such as Oxidizer. Maintain depth and shine with a colour-safe routine such as INEJ Color Protect Shampoo and INEJ Color Protect Mask. Professional colour in stock with fast, signed delivery across Switzerland.
Safety and patch test
Carry out an allergy alert test 48 hours before each application. This is an oxidative colour for professional use: for major changes, lightening or colour correction, rely on a qualified colourist. Wear gloves, avoid contact with the eyes and do not apply on an irritated scalp.
FAQ
Which developer gives full grey coverage?
Mix 1:1 with a 20 vol developer for optimal grey coverage and more intense tones. Use 30 vol for lighter lifts, or 10 vol to refresh the colour on previously coloured hair without altering the shade.
Can I use it at home?
It is a professional oxidative colour. A confident user can apply a like-for-like dark brown by following the steps and a patch test, but for grey resistance, lightening or a change of depth we recommend a professional.
