Important Mixing and Application Instructions

It’s essential to follow the instructions included in the package for mixing and applying the dye. The guidance on our website is meant to assist you, but individual mixing ratios and application methods may differ based on the specific dye and desired results.

Choosing the Right Oxidant

The oxidant is a crucial component that activates the dye. Selecting the appropriate oxidant can significantly influence your results. We recommend using an oxidant from the same brand as your dye for the best outcomes. Here’s a quick reference for oxidant selection: use a 30 Vol oxidant for lightening hair by up to 3 tones, and opt for a 40 Vol oxidant for more than 3 tones of lightening.

Mixing Instructions

To prepare the dye mixture, please use a non-metallic mixing container and stirrer. For the Number 10 dye, mix it with the chosen oxidant in a 1:1 ratio. For example, if you use 60ml of dye, combine it with 60ml of oxidant. For the Number 12 dye, the correct ratio is 1:2; for instance, mix 30ml of dye with 60ml of oxidant. Ensure to mix thoroughly until the texture is smooth.

Application Steps

Apply the prepared mixture to dry, unwashed hair. Allow it to sit for 30-45 minutes, then wash and rinse your hair thoroughly to reveal your new look.
